Sound Guy for NBC. Sad guy when watching the Mets or Jets.

@cunninghamp220 The side by side with the flagrant they call on Brunson in game 3 for the kick out by Champagnie vs. what Wemby did is honestly crazy.

Adam Silver got a little greedy with wanting extra game revenue.

@cunninghamp220 Hard when it’s 5 v 8

@JoeFortunatoBSB I will say Drury & JTM are really a great match in that they both have petulant outbursts, bitch about young players, and make whatever team they're on worse.

[David Lefcort @DLefcort]

@lfitzmaurice Super wide which made it sound like garbage too. Apparently they were opening a massive spot across the street with multiple rooms so we’ll see what comes of that.

@JFreshHockey @GuhleSzn @scottcwheeler Also should note since 21/22, Makar spends 61% of his playoff TOI with Mac. While Fox spends 38% of his playoff TOI with Panarin.

@MrBooth07 Would have much rather traded Mika. Chytil is better than Mika.

@23sabres Tbh, this is the easiest way to identify which player models are trash at accounting for context/teammates.

[David Lefcort @DLefcort]

@lassialanen @eliteprospects How did you isolate for the order of magnitudes difference in quality of teammates?

Or did you not...?

[David Lefcort @DLefcort]

@whydidigetatw @NickZararis nah it was Drury https://t.co/wE0h1UkEQj

Friedman on 31 thoughts:

"NYR and Sabres are not close on the package, Sabres wanted the likes of a Schneider or a Lundkvist and they didn't want to do it. They wanted some of their top young players and NYR didn't want to go there. NYR never offered anything Buffalo wanted"

[David Lefcort @DLefcort]

@32NYR @NickZararis Sabres wanted Lundkvist or Schneider to be included in a package. Drury wouldn't do it.

@cunninghamp220 Thibs remains undeterred to run his starting 5 into the ground before April.

@NickZararis I just love this comment coming from a guy who gave his award to Trouba last year.

[David Lefcort @DLefcort]

@cunninghamp220 Yeah I mean this is basically a copy of what happened with Ryan Martin in Detroit. Had a cup team that was getting older and instead of pivoting to get younger and cheaper to stay on top he signed guys like Nielsen/Dekeyser/Abdelkader to big cap/term.
It's just history repeating

[David Lefcort @DLefcort]

@cunninghamp220 Yeah I mean I think folks are going to be pretty disappointed by the guy who's main skillset is "finding open space because every linemate he's had for the past 5 years is a lottery pick who draws extra defenders" when he's put with 3rd liners & asked to drive play on his own.

[David Lefcort @DLefcort]

@cunninghamp220 Man it's crazy to think that you can be employed for so long when 90% of the guys you pay for you have to pay more to get rid of in 2 years. This would be now Nemeth, Reaves, Blais, Goodrow & Mika. No good GM has more than like 1 of those on his resume.

[David Lefcort @DLefcort]

@BlueshirtsBreak They're a bit different. But both should be playing over the likes of Lindgren & Urho.

[David Lefcort @DLefcort]

@cunninghamp220 Pretty indicative of how poorly we're managed compared to our competition that Borgen would be a healthy scratch in NJ & Wash & Carolina and we just gave him more money than TVR, Chatfield, Sean Walker, Kovacevic & Siegenthaler. All while losing Kakko. Just tear it down already.

[David Lefcort @DLefcort]

@TKreylix @JoeFortunatoBSB You must be pretty lost in the sauce to think Dolan is scouting out guys like Patrik Nemeth, Sammy Blais, Barclay Goodrow & Will Borgen

[David Lefcort @DLefcort]

@TKreylix @JoeFortunatoBSB It's not about going for anything. Drury needs to go. And it won't change until he's gone. The damage he's done will take years to fix already and he doesn't seem done sabotaging things yet.
