Now, THAT'S a reference 🤣🤣🤣

I feel like the Sabres wasn't a pat on the back for doing what they should have in April.

Preaching to the choir. I still wonder if that little stretch convinced ppl like Appert and the players that that was the way to go. Just get it to a one timer at the dots.

Pretty good sarcasm 👏

We shall see. Again, personally believe this team's PP should be top 10 consistently. (Am still pleasantly surprised that the PK has been as good as it has. That's the unit that seems to be middle of the pack quality when looking at it on paper.)

Go on

“He has been a reliable presence.” = He showed up to work every day.

I swear, this vid is from the Ice Plex Formerly known as Bill Gray's Ice Plex The flaming zamboni is not surprising Rink #3 has this notorious beveled edge, which starts about 6" from the boards I always HATED playing on that Ice, afraid that someday my skate would get caught and bye bye ACL/MCL/PCL/etc

FTFY. And both Lyon and Ellis have had at least 1 stinker this year of the own too.

I feel like we're good, but there's a lot of teams with high end talent on the PP. On paper, I feel like 15 sounds about right. However, given our injury problems, and Dahlin taking a while to get going (understandably), they "seem" to be heading towards better things.

???

Season has been fine minus the injuries and every damn game UPL has played. Isn’t Lindy’s fault imo

I’m still not convinced in any way whatsoever

Those restrooms are a mess !

Maybe Jarmo was already pulling the strings before the win streak started. Maybe he pushed to get Östlund back in the lineup. Or maybe none of that is true and I look like a jackass saying it. It would not be the first time

Look who's back to posting Star Wars memes!!! I'll take this as a sign of optimism r/t the annexation of Shevyn???

We all knew this was coming, and Jarmo as the new GM had a no surprise. 15 yrs wandering in the darkness of the deep forest, are we about to see some light at the edge of the forest? Maybe.

The reporting makes it sound like Adams did go on the trip. @Brawndo, can we get a confirmation either way on whether Kevyn did get to enjoy his last hurrah in person?

15th in PP with a Norris caliber D-man QBing it, and player with 1 of the 5 best 1 timers in the league. 2 guys that are very good near the net. And now a guy that can win faceoffs and has a pretty good 1 timer from the other side. And that 15th rank AFTER going on a 8 PPG in 6 games heater. There is too much talent for this PP to NOT go on a run here or there. That unit scores despite coaching, not because of it. And they oftentimes don't even bother putting 1 of those 2 good net front guys on that top unit. This team's PP SHOULD be top 10 every year. It isn't and usually doesn't come close to that because the coaching - entries, lack of movement, etc. is brutally bad. People still think that '23 PP was all that. It truly was for 6-7 weeks. It was awesome. And then opponents figured it out and it went back to being middling at best the rest of that season, though not quite as horrible as it had been to start that year. And, have said several times this year that Wilford is doing a very good job with the PK. Significantly better than expected he'd be able to get them playing. Good on him. But, Appert hasn't earned any kudos yet. They still do a lot of dumb things consistently. And that consistency is on coaching.

If I were Jarmo I would: 1. be courting DeBoer. 2. make finding a goalie my top roster priority, trade one of you better pieces to get one if necessary.

Did Adams accompany the team on the trip? Would be funny that he returns, thinking he can enjoy Christmas after the 3 game winning streak. He’s told Terry wants to see him and thinks “He wants to congratulate me on a successful road trip. Maybe I’ll get a Christmas bonus.” NOT!

This team will never make the playoffs with their goaltending. They'd need a massive defensive turn around to the tune of 14% reduction in goals against.

Probably not, but DeBoer did grow up in Dunnville, Ontario, about 45 miles from the boarder and he grew up a Sabres fan. One can hope.
