I don’t really have an issue with it. Mittelstadt is a great shootout guy and Dahlin is super talented. Reinhart should’ve been 1 or 2 though
- sbroads24

Does it bother you at all if Sam is 3rd?

It's linemates. We've seen him with 3 coaches. Skinner is the only one who really creates space for others.
- Lunaion

Is Skinner a “creates space” type player?
Or do u just mean that he’s the only one other defenses have really had to pay attn to?

Yup. Reinhart is a relay guy/finisher

He needs someone who can attract the defense and allow him to get in open space

Something guys like Nylander and Marner do for Matthews.

I think Eichel impacts the game similarly to Matthews but one is the beneficiary and one is the driver for the most part
- sbroads24

That seems accurate to a degree
But i think it’s more that they’re different style players
Matthews is really awesome still imo
And would be here as well if the players swapped teams

I think the team looks much better the few games Eichel has been out of the locker room.

Seeing some interesting Analytics from
Corsica Hockey

Not sure exactly how their positional rankings are determined, but:

Eichel- 9C
Hall- 15LW
Reinhart- 34RW
Olofsson- 39LW
Staal- 45C
Skinner- 46LW

Dahlin- 37LD
Risto- 40RD

Those ranking for the forwards surprise me

Is it possible that our top players aren’t actually playing that bad offensively, and just having poor luck shooting the puck?

Again, idk what goes into these rankings?
But i did find them surprising

Pretty tough to argue he shouldn't have been given a max deal at $5-6 per. With the benefit of hindsight of course
- jcragcrumple

That's an easy no IMO from Reinhart if he was offered that deal at the time, unless his agent is totally clueless.

The team was bad again. Carter Hart just sucks.

It's a situation where the principles are preventing my firing.

I agree, sam has been playing well.

If a team though does trade for sam, does that mean they intend on extending him? Probably?

So you pay more in trade assets for sam, but may not have the cap room to resign him. Especially with the 1 year until ufa status.

Does anyone give ralph credit for Sam's recent play?
Or is he responsible for just the bad players?

Could the cerebral girgensons and sam understand kruegers system better than a lesser brained player, like skimmer?

Just imagine for a fraction of a second, being the person designing the Pegula Family Goals handouts, and one of the sections reads "lifestyle" as a return on investment.

And THEN showing your boss, Kim, be like hey is this a good idea, to blatantly show that your rich lifestyle trumps these peoples' jobs?

And then watching her ignore your question for her appearance on WhoGivesApoop podcast.

Funny thing is if they were smart enough and fixed there Hockey team there lifestyle would increase. Instead of putting Linoleum on the Yacht's floors the could afford some nice Italian tile.

yea. I personally think the food is pretty good. I'm not going out of my way to go there cause it's a solid 15-20 for me, but I'm never disappointed if my wife's family wants to go every so often.

Wasn’t Kim a communications major? Who am I to question the knowledge of someone who is trying to properly communicate her intent...

It’s ok. Uncle Terry took her restaurant away. Now will he take her hockey team away?

I honestly give her a lot of credit for some of her development ideas. She has done very well in that regard. But the absolute tone def nature of her having to be the president of everything.

And that slide showing how the lifestyle shall not be infringed. It’s just a train wreck.

Imagine if she had these ideas built them up and handed them off to competent people to run.

I know. I know. I’m whining. She’s a lovely person. I’ve never worked for them. I don’t know what I’m talking about.

Maybe we should have a round table with Kim Pegula, president and ceo of the Buffalo Bills. With Kim Pegula president of the Sabres and Kim Pegula, president and ceo of Pegula Sports and Entertainment on what has been successful with the Bills and how that knowledge might be able to influence other entities. I guess you’ll have to call Captain Kim Pegula on the Pegula Yacht to see if Kim Pegula is available.

Becareful what you say, there are spies amongst us. Your punishment could be a 2 on 1 synergy meeting with Ralph and Okposo remember Soft and Supple.

Man what a awesome morning sitting out on the back porch watching the dog run around like a maniac doing a little wake and bake and a nice cup of coffee.

Do you think Kim takes all her fun little hats to the free samples line so people won't judge her when she goes back a bunch of times
