SABRES 0311

Agree the PP needs to really improve. To the bold, I don’t think anyone should expect a young guy coming in to help with production. We should expect a veteran player to come in to do that. An experienced 2C would be better than a 3C we are paying to be a 2C.

I voted no. I do not see Tuch and UPL here when this team goes deep.

If you trade the pick then the other team gambles that the player they want to pick is still there. On the other hand you could pick the player you assess a specific team wants but likely wouldn’t have access to because they pick later. You then flip that player (and other pieces) for what you want from that team. Can you work a side deal with another team who picks much later? Tell team X you’ll pick a guy they want and discuss additional pieces for an immediate trade.

It’s not embarrassing it’s sports fandom. They’re a rival team and no matter good or bad the Sabres play it’s always fun to see the Leafs lose. Now if a member of the Sabres organization publicly rejoiced that would be different.

Good job DAL. I’ll say thank you and move on 😂

Hell yeah they’re built wrong. All flash, no bang.

Good job BOS! Now do us another favor and lose round two.

I think the biggest impact will be readiness. The Sabres seem to need half the first period before they settle into their game. Maybe that’s why they got outscored so bad in the first. Team defense is another area Ruff will noticeably improve. To send that point home, ice time may be lost if you don’t put out in your own end. I don’t see this as a good thing if my name is Jeff Skinner.

Agreed. KA needs to finally get the coaching staff something better to work with.

No big reaction from me until I see who the assistants are. Even then I probably won’t react much until end of November. Ruff has way more experience and success than the last three coaches. On paper he’s an upgrade IMO.

I’m just not going to get worked up in April when we won’t see what happens until October. I’ll probably have some reaction when I see who the assistants are and what rosters moves are made.

Relax, try decaf, have patience.

Either Keven Adams hired a new social media influencer or you are really passionate about Lindy Ruff. 😂

McKee and Peca would be a pipe dream. I’ll settle for Ellis and this new guy Don Granato.
