Ongoing NHL Thread Part V minutes for fighting

Yeah, I don't think even the most fanatical among the goalie's union would defend Dell on this one.

Nor will at least this Sabres fan. Bush league play and he deserves a few games.

And considering he's something like the 5th string (6th maybe) because of a ridiculous run of injuries, the stupid is magnified.

Problem for the Flyers is the guys they'd want to get out from under - Atkinson, JVR, Laughton, Hayes, probably Provorov at this point - all have additional years at big money (except Laughton). Good luck with that.

We got Voracek back already. Let's finish undoing the Carter trade and get Couturier back now

I also see the Devils lost again last night.

When can we start talking about a Severson trade? Don't want the Leafs to do much this deadline but I've wanted him on the second pair for a long time now and he's got another year left at good money. If they're gonna give up assets for anybody, someone like him would be worth it.

Most Sabres fan feel the same way, including me.

Just a few comments from /r/sabres

I don't care if we have to sit Craig Anderson in an easy chair between the posts and watch the pucks roll in, please don't put Aaron Dell in a Sabres jersey again.

Hope he gets suspended and then cut. Don’t need this bullshit on the Sabres. Even when they’re bad, we always know they aren’t scumbags. Except now, because that was a scumbag move. It’s okay to lose a game without being a vengeful dickhead about it.

I suspect James Neal's $750k will be the 2nd highest salary on the Springfield Thunderbirds.

The highest? Why, that would be James Neal's $1.9 MM from the Oilers, of course.

He’d look good on that Canadian Olympic team

You're right - They could probably use that slug as weight for the 4-man bobsled team.

 

[puckhead]

they should have added the line "and he's fair game from here on out"

 

[buffhockey]

Has there been a trade???

Really playing goalie for the Sabres, a suspension is a blessing.

Just imagine telling your fanbase you need to retool after trading away a 1st and 2nd round pick for Rasmus Ristolainen.
