Buffalo Rick Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 Mike Weber being picked up by the Capitals to me is a bit shocking They no doubt want his experience and grit. I have often given it to him over the years and I think deservedly so except for this year as he is the only player in the plus side on the plus minus stats. He has a shot at the grand trophy. Its strange how sports work these days. I actually had him rated as our worst starter at the years start. He played surprisingly well, yet he is no Rasmus Ristolainen. But he is going to get his shot at the Cup this year. Believe it, you had best believe it because Ovetchkin is on a mission to destroy. And I do not think he can be stopped. Thanks for the kind parting words and we wish you the best now that you will no longer wear the blue and gold Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
radoran Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 My friends in Springville would need to get new jerseys if their last name wasn't "Weber" Nice pickup for a 28-year-old impending UFA that likely wasn't in the long term (or short term) plans for the organization. And they retained half salary - not that most teams wouldn't give up $833K in cap space for a third round pick at the deadline... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buffalo Rick Posted February 27, 2016 Author Share Posted February 27, 2016 Rad, you have to be the only person on Earth that is a Flyer fan and Buffalo is your second favorite team? Incredible. We hate the Flyers. And Montreal and Ottawa. I just cannot believe it. You must be young? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll be spending St. Paddy's day in south Buffalo this year. I root for the Sabres unless they're playing the Flyers. That said, I loved wearing my Flyers gear around town. People would just stop, stare and say "what's with the hat?" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
