Runner-Runner-Rebuy

Lots going on. Its NHL trade deadline day, so I'll be watching various sites hoping my team does smart things. Multiple sources are reporting the Sabres have offered a multi-year extension worth over 4 million a year to Tim Connolly. He is a point per game guy - when he plays. His injury list is loooong -

I am very happy he turned down the offer. IT's just too much $$$ for a guy who is so easily broken.

BBT4 is underway, but I've thus far only played in the Big Game, missing 3 other events and will miss the Mookie tonight as I'm going to Sabres vs. Habs. Got stacked by PirateLawyer in the Big Game, when my AQ ran into his AK on what looked like a squeeze play to me.

This is the second time I have been stacked by PL on what I thought was a squeeze. Need to be more careful in the future. He knows that I think he plays too many hands, and has used that effectively against me.

Eh, Vegas is around the corner and it can't come too soon. I need a break from my routine. Looks like Dawn Summers and Mary are making the trip and stopping in the B-Lo a day early for poker shenanigans here. Should be a fun time.

Ahhh...crap, I just heard that Connolly did in fact accept an offer. This is not verified, keeps your fingers crossed that it is just a nasty lie.
