GDT: Sabres @ Maple Leafs @ 7:30pm EST

I'm saying, they've done it all, but they can't just keep filling the net all game long every game. We needed a fucking core 5, and I'd count ROR as a 3C, so he's not it. Instead they went and jumbled up their depth for no reason, and spent their time getting McCabe instead of Meier.
I agree with you and all but Meier has been sorta shit for NJ tbh
 
He's not a shit player though, so it's irrelevant how he's started there.

Can you imagine him here if he was on a line with Marner and Matty?

And then we had Bunting-Tavares-Nylander.

And Engvall-ROR-Acciari.

I mean this literally could've happened. Sandin could've stayed, McCabe never added (though I still like him, just the wrong add). Fucking hell.
 
Well it's been a few games now so I'll say that I've liked Acciari. I think Lafferty is garbage and McCabe doesn't seem to be great either, though he did better tonight in easier minutes.


O'Reilly - Points in two of eight games, looks real slow, currently injured for most of the rest of the season

Acciari - Looks like a legit nice depth addition

Lafferty - Doesn't look like an NHL player

McCabe - Meh? Not sure he's actually a good top-4 defenseman, And I'm yet to be convinced that acquiring him was better than my stated preference for sticking with the D we had.

Schenn - lol

Gustafsson - Still baffled as to what the point of him is?
 
glad I elected to sleep instead of watch this one.

in my advanced age my body clock is really rebelling against east coast start times. I'm often in bed before 10 pm ADT, with games starting at 8 pm ADT at the earliest, and likely later in the playoffs. the flip side is I am now up before my alarm at 530 pretty much daily too.

in the past I have always chosen playoff hockey over sleep but this year I have my doubts.

I hate getting old. I need to be in bed early.

If we go up 3-1 or 3-2 in the series, you should probably choose sleep from that point forward!
 
I think the most amusing thing to me behind the notion of firing Dubas is that there is a very real possibility that you go mega backwards with a more traditional or experienced GM and rely less on analytics.

Peter Chiarelli interview incoming
