He’s excellent at tracking the puck but can’t stop the puck.

He's not going to jail. However, he will have something on his record.

Community service, maybe a fine. Definitely a civil suit later that will likely be settled outside of court.

No, but he absolutely should make restitution for any and all damage caused by his thoughtless actions

First off, put yourself in the amputee's, um, shoes (not funny, but you know what I mean). What is this girl supposed to do, let him skate? Someone has to pay for it.

Secondly, she didn't put the cameras there. That's the world we live in now. Everything that happens is recorded and is going to go viral within hours, hence the worldwide damnation.

Third, the wheelchair doesn't belong to anyone? Whaaaat? Just some random wheelchair sitting there at the top of the stairs?

He does, and I'm sure it'll be a pee pee slap, but it'll be on his record and maybe it not only wakes him up, but also makes someone else think twice about doing something so stupid and unnecessary.

It's the same as if I was walking down the street and broke a store window. Damaging property is damaging property. Funny, I'd think you'd be all for that.

And I was more replying to where he said the charges were to strengthen the civil suit. I think the video is more than enough to get a civil judgement. If you were sitting on a jury and you saw an åsshole throw a brick through a store window would that not be enough?

And let’s be also clear, his daddy is a millionaire who’s now an NHL GM.

His “record” won’t matter. He will never go have to work at a Wendy’s because he made this mistake that went on his permanent record.

He will get a comfortable six figure job somewhere

Charge him with vandalism? Idk, all the world that has seen that vid know he’s a douchebag, as long as he pays for repairs/replacing the chair I don’t think criminal charges are necessary. If nothing else, charges looming may make the check arrive faster.
Seems like a DA sucking around for some positive public attention off of a viral incident, the cynic in me says

I guess we disagree. I appreciate you, I just could see a younger dumber version of myself doing something dumb like that with no more malice than to just one up my friend and no further thought into it than that.

Intent doesn't matter here. Malice or not, he did it and should at least pay for it.

Should he hang? No. But like Broads basically said above, he may not have ever worried about the consequences, and sh!t like, "not having to worry about consequences" because my daddy is rich needs to stop.

Fanatics will replace Adidas as the NHL's outfitter of on-ice uniforms and authentic jerseys, beginning with the 2024-25 season on a 10-year deal.

This marks the 1st time @Fanatics branding will be directly on an official player uniform for a pro sports property. @NHL

So let's move to the 2nd rnd of the Draft. Sabres have 2 picks and they should be in the 37-45 Range so Let's Go:
Forwards that could be Available:
Otto Stenburg C/LW
Kasper Halttunen RW
Jesse Kiiskinen RW
Carson Rehkopf LW
Nick Lardis RW/LW
Luca Pinelli C/LW
Alexander Rykov LW/RW
Defense and now we start running into the meat of D in this Draft 2nd and 3rd rnds have alot.
Etienne Morin LD
Lukas Dragicevic RD
Hunter Brzustewicz RD
Caden Price LD
Luca Cagnoni LD
Tom Willander RD
Sabres could really use this draft to stock the cupboards with D this year. And people shouldn't take it as a bad thing that so many D are in the 2nd and 3rd. Just there is so many good forwards this year that some really good Defenseman are gonna be had later on.

Great work, but I honestly couldn’t care less about the draft.

If they don’t use any picks they have this year, fine by me.

Understand and I agree, but looks like Adams and Company are gonna use atleast 1 more draft.

Donnie pounded the table for one more draft...there are college bound USNTDP players in the draft....Adams says prospects that require 6 years of development post draft are diamonds...Pegula never has to pay the draft picks because they play out their college career and choose other destinations...Profit


I have connected the dots...it all makes sense

Well I mean the draft still matters and we both know if this draft busts that the both of us will be critical at a minimum.

I also understand the fatigue of caring more about the draft than the playoffs. So I get that.

I'm thankful meaningful games were played in March.

I demand a playoff spot next season.

You think I care more about the Draft. Only reason I jumped to doing this is that's all Adams seems to be thinking about.

I don't know what else Adams is supposed to do at this point.

The team is inconsistent and hilariously bad when Samuelsson doesn't play.

I'm resigned to caring about the draft. I'm just thankful we almost made it to April before giving a poop about it.

Well I am to, but I would be caring more if Adams seemed to care more about those meaningful games in March. Could have helped his Team throughout the year and chose not to.

Honestly, what is, or what did you want, Adams to do to make this team perform like the current playoff teams? In season.

This is more of a crazy coincidence than a sign of his importance.

We’ve all watched him struggle like crazy most of the year

Can't say it would have made them a playoff team, but there were Dman available that might have helped us more throughout the year than some of the crap we Rolled out. Do I know if Bear Timmins Reilly would have helped or made us better. Don't know but I would have tried atleast.
