There is no conflict.

You can log onto imgflp with your Google ID if you have one (I think some others too) and use that to create an account. Then you can upload pics or gifs as templates. It's how I make the goal memes.

Cackling Brian Duff making it seem like the Sabres aren’t spending out of the ordinary on the blueline. I’d like to know how many teams have a top 3 blueline cap hit greater than the Sabres(25.6mil)? I bet…not many, if any.

Yeah but I want the Byram pic.

Go to a meme generator page such as https://imgflip.com/memegenerator and see if the gif is uploaded without the text. This one is pretty close: https://imgflip.com/memetemplate/320298782/Princess-Bride-Land-War-in-Asia-gif It has a caption but you can put a bigger caption over it.

Team plays with more mojo with Greenway is out there. We’re reaching critical mass of players with that sort of effect. Bryson being the remaining total drag out there. Samuelsson is minimized. Power and Byrams faults is they play without bite and teams get cocky then they get lost chasing. A few more finished checks here and there and teams don’t try that ***** as much. But the flow falls apart as they’re covering for so many weaknesses. its at the point where Dahlin doesn’t play offense like he should be because he’s covering so much. If we traded out Byram the defense is just too thin. We’re better for it for two years. get a forward who actually forechecks with grit on every line and defenseman who don’t skate circles and the whole game gets easier for everyone Optimism comes from the mix being changed. You can still have some skill guys but they can’t be a majority; everyone can’t play the perimeter only one

We didn't have to but there's no cons to signing him. His ELC will slide this year and next year if he isn't in Buffalo (which he shouldn't be) and so it just is more housekeeping than anything.

Do we even know why we had to sign him then? If he’s not going to be in Rochester, what was the rush to sign him? I don’t know anything about the pros and cons to this.

I’ve never liked Greenway. I think people like the idea of a big rough player. But he’s not a difference maker and is usually injured. He’s basically the Samuelsson of the forwards.

But what if UPL plays the way he did in that one 30 game stretch that he hasn't shown before or since? What if Jiri Kulich is actually the 2nd coming of idk... some 35g, 40a type of center? What if Norris plays all 82 games? "Hope is a ***** strategy" as our friend Zucker said.

So which one of you memesters can get rid of the text for me so that I can use it as a template? I'm thinking "to the pain" to start.

I am so conflicted here. I am so conflicted here.

Well, the Byram signing buys the Sabres 2 of those 3 years of time.

Because this is year 6 of this clown being in charge and all he has built is: ”well if all these players breakthrough maybe we have a chance at the playoffs.” Not even remotely good enough.

Old school @Pimlach has become a new aged coddler. What in the world is going on!!!🫣

Dark Star Orchestra at Outer Harbor here in Buff this Friday.

Looking over these numbers, if Power doesn't play with Samuelsson and Bryson for about 1/3 of the season minutes, he might have actually not been total *****. He wouldn't have been good but he at least wouldn't have been hot trash. Power in 318mins at 5v5 with Mattias Samuelsson: 45.73cf%, 40.75xgf%, 51.85gf%, 37.62hdcf% and the only reason they don't look worse is they had a .918sv% saving their *****. Owen Power with anyone besides Bryson and Samuelsson: 53.64cf%, 52.43xgf%, 45.31gf%, 48.7hdcf%, and a 0.892sv% as the goalie was pooooooooo

Welll.... here we go. Tonight, 15 minutes down the road where the T-Birds (Mrtka) play:

Jacob Bryson is so bad that in 39mins with Dahlin at 5v5, he manages to tank Dahlin's numbers by a lot. 50.62cf%, 44.14xgf%, 35.29hdcf% Dahlin with literally anyone else 56.72cf%, 55.16xgf%, 56.79hdcf%

Fine but we didn't replace him IMO.

we didnt lose him in ufa

See JJP. But I know I know you feel we won't miss his production.

teams lose guys to UFA all the time, Buffalo just never replaces them

Uncle Owen and Aunt Beru. I can make that work in some manner in the future.

Yes, I want to see us make the playoffs but we better have the forethought that one year in the playoffs and then out because lose guys in UFAs is poor management.
