Buffalo and Tampa Bay in a fight filled game and Stanley or Schenn. Buffalo took a beating in most of those fights, but still won 8-7. Dahlin in the middle of a couple of those fights.

This is exactly why Buffalo acquired Stanley and Schenn, things will be waaay different when they're in the lineup, little Mr Hagel will be dealt with promptly and get his lights punched out!! Schenn and Stanley will see to it this type of BS stops right now and will hold teams accountable, bank on that!!

If you want speed around 19, then you wouldn't have 91 on that line. 27/19/93.   

Agree on that, 91 is not top 6 material, never has been. Hes'had the odd 'big game goal', but is no where near consistent enough, this year he's dropped off, only 8 goals and -4, that's not second line material

Hellebuyck's faced 1173 shots so far this season, which is 9th most. Predators' netminder Saros leads the league at 1389 shots against.

Had Hellebuyck not missed a few weeks earlier this season, though, he'd likely be at the top, if not near it.

Had Heelebuyck no missed a few weeks, we'd be in the playoffs!!

Ya, both Perkins and Thorne have decent highlight reels, both seem better options than Wilson or Strev, but interested to see how they do when they re playing against pro defenders, add another defender on the field, and the recievers have motion, still they looking promising

CH37 looked good, except when he didn't.  Probably going to win the "most rubber faced" award this year.

Quite the game last night.  Why no shots on goal?  Are the Ducks D that good?

CH37 looked good, except when he didn't.  Probably going to win the "most rubber faced" award this year.

Some interesting plays from the rooks/new guys.  Salmonson is ready for the top pairing, IMHO.  He is just that good.  Rosen looks like he belongs, but needs a little more support that Toews and Nyquist.  Lambert's size puts him in with Koepke and Baron, but these are not linemates that will refine his hands.

Can we go back to

81 55 13
and then

91 19 27
14 17 9
45 36 93

Toews with some more speed around him should improve... until we get a 2C

If you want speed around 19, then you wouldn't have 91 on that line. 27/19/93.   

[ut to vie for the future starter/current backup role?]

I guess college coaching has a much more lucrative future than trying to break into CFL QB'ing...

Was looking forward to the Chase this year, but there are a lot of arms coming to camp, and on our neg list..

No, please no.  Mid season if there are no other options, maybe.  But to vie for the future starter/current backup role? 

Just no.

It would be the latter and not the former.

I'm not a fan of MBT but I don't hate the idea of having a proven vet to try and salvage our season if Collaros goes down in what is probably his last year of football.

That said, we need to have a real prospect as #2/3 to get some snaps and give us a look into the future.

Follow up article from Ed Tait. This is a great read.

https://www.bluebombers.com/2026/03/11/castillo-all-i-can-say-is-wow-and-im-very-appreciative/

One of the best articles I've read about players' activities outside of football.  Knowing Sergio a bit, I can vouch for him as a decent and great person.
