Columbus beat St. Louis 4-1 last night at home. The Blues were playing their second road game on a back to back. The Blue Jackets will end up playing three nights in a row with these next two against the Sabres.

Then go find a good team to follow, unless you prefer being miserable.

That is a very tall defensive lineup.

Yup. Their defense is pretty good. They went up and down the field yesterday but 5 turnovers killed them and they still almost won the game. Not going to be a walk in the park.

I would add that Good teams also spend enough to max out their salary cap…..and even many bad teams as well.

Kesselring says he wants to play meaner. Ok. I accept that. The Sabres are highly scoffable. Good teams would shake off a bad start and pull it together. Goods teams would find a way to stop a 13 game losing streak from happening. Good teams are not out of the race at Christmas. Good teams don't miss the playoffs for 10, 11, 12, 13, 14 years. Good teams actually improve year over year. Good teams win at home and on the road. Lots to scoff at and the fans "pay the bills". The fans here are some of the best fans the Sabres have. They can scoff with impunity in my opinion.

I didn’t know Jeff Skinner signed with San Jose.

Is this the clip where he says the girl's name under his breath -- in response to her appearing on screen -- but before she actually says her name? Man, I effing lost it when I watched that live.

F: Justin Danforth, Josh Doan, Joshua Dunne, Mason Geertsen, Konsta Helenius, Tyson Kozak, Peyton Krebs, Jiri Kulich, Beck Malenstyn, Noah Östlund, Jack Quinn, Anton Wahlberg D: Bowen Byram, Michael Kesselring, Vsevolod Komarov, Radim Mrtka, Nikita Novikov, Owen Power G: Alexandar Georgiev, Devon Levi The bubble plus Byram and Power. No Johnson hmm

must win.

Vets slowly shake the rust off, rookies and prospects try to show something. Its an opportunity for a few players. Similar to football and baseball.

WTF.

Fair assessment. We will revisit this in April and see how Power did. I want you to be right and I want to see it this season. Right now he is a big defenseman that does not have a physical game, has offensive skills are offset by his inability, or perhaps unwillingness, to play good defense. This could be the year, or he may not take the step we are looking for until 25, so we get his bottom 6 years. That means others have to be better and play more minutes.

It's only preseason, but NHL preseason to me is more enjoyable than most other sports. It'll be something tangible to watch and discuss.

Happy Equinox! Sabres hockey is back! No roster info yet. Stay tuned!

Heck ya!

No he didn't. He decided to take and keep them. Lindy Ruff and Kevyn Adams are both on record as saying Ruff can change out his assistants. I think the only one Ruff is stuck with is Appert.

You do. It’s directed at the fanbase you are part of instead of the team.

Stephen A’s thoughts on Charlie Kirk’s death and people celebrating it. I never really listened to a Kirk video but the little I saw he did to use peaceful debating. He made people defend their views instead of repeating wave tops from social media platforms. Never really listened to Stephen A either but this video caught my attention on FB.

Yeah, seem to be a well run and well supported team. Always great when they come down to Glasgow over the festive period usually Boxing Day or New Year’s Eve. They bring a rowdy away support so the Arena is bouncing.

Nah, you missed my post in the other thread. It was my good news positivity post for the Sabres. After watching the Bruins today I think it's almost certain the Sabres will not be last in the division. So you can celebrate.

I don’t remember do we do GDTs for preseason?
