In Muel’s defence if he doesn’t get a stick on that then Kane is burying it for the goal anyways.

You're as negative as anyone. I have no vendetta against Dahlin. I call it like I see it. I don't see this as a place where you have to bury your concerns and fears. I can't imagine any Sabres fan not having an "oh, crap" moment when Dahlin left in the middle of the season. I am proud to have planted my flag on Terry in 2011, not 12 years later like most others. It doesn't make me a negative Nellie, just a good evaluator of owner prospects.

I feel for the past decade I have read the quote “A team with A, B, C and D should not be close to the bottom of the league yet here the Sabres are” more times than I wish to imagine.

Ouch

For me? Post merging? I don't know. These forums are like spoken conversations. "Oh, and one other thing..." How long have you been troubled by this? Why didn't you come to me? TP sucks.

Kulich has blood clots, Zucker a virus, Dahlin had a LOA because of his fiancé, Kesselring blocked a shot. I don’t get this dumping on the Strength coach narrative I’ve seen for a couple weeks.

I'm here for you.

Her hot dog vendor was ecstatic..

If Adams "set out to make the team tougher defensively and harder to play against" by trading Clifton, then among everything else that's gone wrong because of him, that alone shows how incompetent he is as a GM. IMO, when it came to all around toughness, his ability to deliver some of the hardest checks of anyone else on the team, and a willingness to drop the gloves whenever necessary to protect his teammates, Clifton excelled and was a true team player on the ice. He was the type of tough player that you need in the playoffs. Maybe Adams wasn't out to build a playoff caliber team so he figured there was no sense in keeping him. As far as the Peterka trade, that made even less sense.

On the downside our defensemen took turns giving away the puck that lead to goals against. Timmons first, Byram second, Dahlin third, then Sammy directed one into the net. Amends were made and they came out with the win. They got 4 goals in regulation for the 1st time in 11 games and only the third time this year. In this version of the NHL you are going to need 4 or more on most nights to win. Let's see if they can start ripping twine. On the too many men penalty it was not perfectly clear on the replay but it seemed like one guy was going off and 3 jumped on. Lindy was talking about a dump in and that should not be called but at the end of the day it was on the bench for it happening in the first place. If nothing else the PK keeps coming though though. Still have not seen enough of Ellis but his side to side movement and play down low seems pretty good so far. The comfort level with him seems to be increasing. This is going to be a strange season in the standings. No reason to waive the white flag just yet. I could see a lot of teams fighting for 90 points this year.

Oh my. That is so far away. That’s for making my day Pim.

It did not look good at the time. I could not tell if the puck hit his ankle or a bit higher but he went down like he was shot and he could not put any weight on it.

I wonder how long it took for the photographer to realize he/she had that gem.

I’m not so sure about this. Didn’t Lehner hide all his issues while in Buffalo and then dump them on the Sabres before he left, only to have them reoccur? As for Ullmark, what could they do? He doesn’t blame them for his relationship with his father.

What makes a seeming full grown, adult woman do that to a crowd of visiting hockey players? Boards and thick glass.

Bad joke. He was the favorite whipping boy for many Sabres Fans last year, so he took that personally and currently is the Sabres best defenseman

If it’s broke, see you at the end of January.

He definitely took a shot off his lower leg.

Not everyone was happy last night.

Should I understand this?

It isn't.

I know right, 6 points back with 64 games to play, how will they ever overcome that, hahaha

I guess it's where you are drawing the line. If it's for a season you're looking at season ending injuries. We have not lost anyone for 82 games like Florida. For this time in the season we have lost a lot. The Avalanche had a ton of injuries to start last year. Probably on par with what we are going through. I don't know the answer but they came to mind and it's probably happened to most teams at one time or another.
