good work from mbn and finnie gets them a couple great chances.

once florida gets that forecheck going, theyre hard to stop.

sabres responding tonight.

yes.

what a snipe from Kane.

michigan-usc doing 2 million less than georgia auburn is a bigger disappointment. it would be nice if either michigan or usc were good....or if it was a competitive game...

go home 84, youre drunk.

if youre out of it, you trade him.

what if theyre out of it at the deadline? dont you deal him then? i would.

if they trade skubal they are most likely going to lose the trade because skubal is already a great player and most prospects - now matter how highly they are ranked - do not pan out. otoh, there is a very good chance that skubal gets injured again and/or declines from this peak soon (and will still likely outperform any prospect package). only the tigers know their budget. do they want to spend 25% of it on one player? if you held a gun to my head, i'd say they dont trade him, cant re-sign him, and he walks. but that next year will be very fun when he pitches.

interesting that ohio state hasnt joined them in opposition. at least not publicly.

they shouldnt be counting on jackson jobe to be anything. i'm not saying he wont bounce back, but his trajectory now is more likely to be average-ish casey mize than the all world spin doctor he was touted to be.

can we deal sasser to new orleans for an unprotected first?

is he just a bad negotiator? is he overvaluing tigers' prospects? underselling others? he's young enough to think seasons like this and players like skubal happen all the time, i guess. being proud of trading **** and getting **** in return all the while blowing the biggest division lead in history is something that they should be embarassed about, not proud of. not throwing it back in people's faces.

i mean in regards to the whole team. in game one your boy aj was complete ****. a total disaster that cost them multiple goals. game two was chairot and seider screwing up and costing goals. in game three asp was god awful, directly led to the two goals and almost gave up two more with his mistakes. as you note, chairot isnt perfect and shouldnt be on the first line, but NONE OF THEM should be on the first pair! only edvinsson and seider should be on the first pair. but then we'd have the worst second pair in the nhl and the worst third pair in the ahl! chairot brings something aljo and asp and wallinder and buium and tuomisto dont: he's physical and he stands up for his teammates. we seem to agree on that much. but aljo is not first pair material. not right now and likely not ever. that's why i was sad to see them miss out on dobson, but montreal had multiple first rounders to trade and we...did not.

poor from asp today. left edvinsson out to dry a couple times, bailed out by talbot a few times.

danielson would be a great replacement for rasmussen.

that waa a lucky win. i'll take it, but that was a goalie game.

on second thought, i wouldnt want john harbaugh. go get a college guy to coach michigan. moore isnt going anywhere for at least two years. BUT, we say that now. if michigan implodes this year and next i could see it. if he doesnt fire wink martindale he should be fired.

he was put into a position he wasnt prepared to take. not his fault. warde manuel and jim harbaugh's fault. as g2 points out - not in these exact terms - the only thing jim harbaugh loves more than michigan football, is jim harbaugh.

one game wasnt the end of the world. two games isnt the dawn of a new era. patience. we'll see bow it looks in a couple months.

maybe. wary or pro guys in college. john isnt young anymore.

if they win out except for osu it will be looked at as improvement over last year, but i dont think that will happen. i think michigan will lose at least once before osu and then will lose big to osu. next year they need to be contenders or moore will be in trouble. i dont think it will matter because i dont think moore is good enough. he was a hire made quickly in a bad situation. and it shows now.

you'll get zion and like it!

so how do you get that scorer? and who could it be? they havent drafted one. ausar and holland arent those guys. you dont want booker (even if he were available) or markannen. then who?
