Novikov should be given a chance to make the Buffalo roster. He's better than Bryson and maybe better than Samuelsson.

On the bright side the Sabres prospects usually do well in this tournament then the main Sabres team sucks in the regular season. Maybe since the prospects 💩 the bed that the main team will make the playoffs this year.😛 I think they need to see what they can get if anything for Rosen.

I saw Sublime at CMAC for the first time in 30 years with Bradley’s son Jakub singing. It was even better than I hoped it could be. It was packed. I saw Jakubs other band play at the rec room 6-7 weeks prior to maybe around 40 people. It was a fun show.

Catching up here now that summer is winding down. I went for the third year in a row. Willy still sounded great and Dylan sounded good too. People don’t realize Dylan doesn’t care what people think or want him to play. He does what he wants, plays what he wants, and plays it how he wants.

Suspended license, fine, impact panel, potential jail time, counseling, etc.. Basically the same as anyone else in this situation. Losing your job for a DWI, even as a felony, is not what typically happens. It does happen because companies often care about their bottom line or projecting their own personal beliefs on others. Im also concerned for the safety of others and children. I didn’t realize that was something people had to spell out in this type of conversation. Maybe we need a poll to see who values safety of children and people? 😉 I know exactly who I am. I’m 100% confident you have no idea the type of person I am. This is a reasonable, honest, and well thought out and considerate take. I only mentioned the “on company time part” because companies can have rules about behavior while representing the company or during work events. That would be a justifiable cause for termination in that case, although it seems this was the first situation he’s had like this and usually they want people to get help before cutting off their ability to get such help. I agree it’s a bit premature to assume he will be fired. People are calling for him to be fired. This is what I was addressing. In general: It’s weird that people expect people to be perfect all the time, and don’t allow them a chance to grow and learn from their mistakes. I’ve never heard of any other legal trouble Mair has gotten into, and from his statement to the police it sounds like he’s struggling with life a bit right now. I hope he gets the help he needs and that he can be an example of how people can turn their life around and bounce back. That is the best possible outcome here and what I hope happens.

Nope. Special teams let them down again. So, these Sabres are Sabres.

Did they win today?

Robert Arnold is one of my favorite youtubers. Here’s a couple nuggets worth watching.

Georgiev celebration.

Over the, checks his notes, ... , uh, Sabres. Ooooh, look at us, we're cool, we spotted the Sabres a 4-1 lead and came back. Big whoop.

I mean the original report from Roswell was a flying disc. It was later changed to weather balloon.

Is Bedard MVP material? Or destined for the top 10? I don't watch him that much but just does not seem to be heading that way. I was at the prospect challenge this afternoon and was hoping for more from the top forwards. I did think the passing and puck movement was not bad but they just do not seem to be able to capitalize on their chances. It's funny that Peyton Krebs name came up because I was thinking are any of these guys ready to replace him? He is probably the minimum they would have to be to crack the lineup full time without being an injury replacement. I don't see anyone that is clearly better than him at the moment but Östlund might not be that far away. For what it's worth I thought Belliveau had a nice game. The goal he scored was a ripper but it was more than that, he seemed like a decent skater and made some good passes. As far as prospect ratings go in general it seems like the younger they are the hype is still fresh and those are the types that can be overrated. The new shinny thing is always great until proven otherwise.

To the Avs fans it was a great comeback.

Does anybody know wtf the NHL Network is showing the Sabres Avs game from Dec 3 tonight? THAT was THE game where the wheels fell off and the season was lost. What a bizarrely cruel choice of a game.

Thank you, very much appreciated

I deleted what you posted but I don’t see what you’re worried about.

From what you saw, can Helenius become a new version of Christian Ruuttu?

A fair comparison. Although Jerry Jones (for all his errors) might be more competent than Terry. There's also that thing we heard earlier that "Buffalo was hard to deal with" in terms of trading. I think that was on 32 thoughts around the time of the Byram rumors or Peterka trade. I tend to forget as I'm less invested these days but it was around there. So you have to think two things. One, Kevyn does not have good relationships with other GMs and two, I wonder if part of that is Kevyn constantly having to get the okay from Terry. Whatever the case it isn't good. We need an experienced GM who already has league relationships and he needs to be given free reign and that won't happen with Terry. Apathy? I guess so. I've been in the prove it on the ice mode for a few years already and now I'm really deeply in the skeptical prove it camp. Even a 10 game out of the gate win streak won't get me out of that. It'll take a lot to get me back on the bandwagon. So I guess I'd say not apathetic (as I will still watch) but definitely cynically skeptical. I will say this is the first year I am not interested in the rookie camp or prospects and I don't plan to watch preseason unless I'm really bored or multitasking. The "future" stuff is a big pile of whatever.

It's not even physicality. He's passive. He sits and waits and let's others dictate play which he then reacts to. Some NHL ppl are about to learn Zach Benson.

So, the question becomes, which will come first: the day of alien disclosure by our government or the Sabres making the playoffs?

Benson is literally not old enough to legally drink in this country, has played 146 NHL games (combined total of every single player drafted after him: 40 NHL games) and they have his next season as do or die???? Were these people smoking crack or something?

This is exactly what SS needs, a thread talking about aliens. I actually mean that. Not trying to be jerk.

Power is a tier 4 player at best. Until he gets some physicality to high game, he is a waste. The pro scouts are right to be frustrated with his lack of commitment to improving defensively.
