https://www.aol.com/george-wendts-family-cheers-stars-213636914.html I was surprised to learn that his nephew was Jason Sudekis, the son of his sister.

The real issue is will they be vying for the top 6. I like Benson a lot. However, if he is on the top line again, then I'm worried.

Responding to the highlighted question, I would say the current roster balance is still problematic . A couple more rugged and defense-minded players need to be added to the blueline mix, and another Zucker-like (younger) player brought in. As @GASabresIUFAN has repeatedly pointed out, the goalie position needs to be addressed. If that doesn't happen, the positives will be neutralized. This offseason shouldn't be about dramatically remaking the roster as it should be about making a few judicious moves that better balance the roster mix. Also, to state the obvious, a lot is going to be riding on the young players getting better. If the development in our young players doesn't rise to a sufficient level, this franchise will again be rowing a boat against a strong current i.e. not moving forward.

Funeral lunch will be held at the Hungry Heifer.

I wouldn't say Benson or Kulich are vying for the top 9. They're all but guaranteed to play there.

What's going on Norm? Let's talk about what's going IN Norm.

The Bills have been selected for Hard Knocks on HBO this summer

And because they’re already under contract. We are a poverty franchise. I love you Sabres but you are not serious people.

What's going on Norm? "Another layer of fat for winter!" 😂

If you don’t feel like messing around with Flo and you live in ROC, The Distillery is having a watch party. I’m going to check it out tonight.

The episode where he pretended he was gay so people would hire him to do interior decorating, lol And the episode where he fired people because he was good and letting them down easy, lol. There was a bar on Hertel Ave named Cheers and I'd walk in there delivering pizza and I'd always yell, "Norm" when I walked in for a laugh. RIP Norm

We now interrupt this thread on fat dudes with man boobs for some Amerks gameday info: https://www.amerks.com/news/detail/playoff-preview-amerks-face-rocket-north-of-the-border-in-game-3

I hope everybody around here realizes that “youth” and “blocking” are no longer talking points with the Sabre forwards. Tage Thompson is turning 28 next season and will be entering his 7th NHL season Zucker 34 and 12 Tuch 29 and 9 Greenway 29 and 8 Norris 26 and 6 McLeod 26 and 5 Krebs 25 and 5 Peterka 24 and 4 Quinn 24 and 4 These guys have been around long enough to know what the league is about. Yes, there are 2 babies also vying to break into the top 9 in Kulich and Benson (and 2 vets in Malenstyn, 28, and Lafferty, 31) but putting them there is a choice, not an excuse. This is group that should be considered largely in its prime. The questions should be are they good enough, and are they balanced enough? “ Are they old enough?” is so 2022.

I knew it was something that was keeping the Sabres from glory. I just couldn't put my finger on it.

Where are you conservatives? You were so loud and vocal in January and February but now you're silent. The Trump regime is arguing that whatever DOGE is doing, should be hidden from the public they are doing it to. We are but one small step from full authoritarianism in the US.

Carter Bear at 24 is a choice... not a good choice, but a choice none the less.

Liger: Hey Siri, give me an example of recency bias... Siri: Okay, here's an example of recency bias. Every single outlet ik of talks about how Martin needs to improve his skating. He's an average skater who makes up for that with relentless energy. "The hallmark of his game is his skating and determination are excellent,” said Button of Martin.

He could change it to Kevin Adyms, no one will ever know.

Adding a D of all things to Adams is a Buridan's ass level setup, that I’ve got nothing for

What if Kevyn changed his name? Then you could say Kevyn Adams is no longer GM. Kevyn Addams is.

Not really. The franchise began in Syracuse (Smash), then moved to Ottawa (Rebel). They were named the Rush when they moved again to Edmonton before moving to Saskatoon. Saskatchewan Rush - Wikipedia https://share.google/Ol66o9298BMwob1GY

Then, YES, a RESOUNDING 1000% YES, Adams can still get punted even after the Sabres take the playoff path of the Swamp Cats 2 years ago. (Sneak in because the backup goalie saved the day when the #1 was sick/had issues; and then lose a hard fought final.)

I am trying my best here to renege on my plan and you are not helping lol There really are no more outs for me, are there

The passivity is what has me off of O'Brien as well. Notably, I read/heard him best described as a reactive playmaker. A good playmaker, but overly patient and waiting for the defender to make the first move and then reacting to it, something that works with the juniors but will take time to unlearn against adults who will gladly take away your time and space. This system needs an influx of aggressors, agitators, and proactive players who force the game on the opponent.

The ONLY way that happens if is the team is horrible out of the gate, there is a general purge at the end of October and then the team rises like the Phoenix. IF they bring in a PoHO or a "Senior Advisor" and Adams is still standing come Christmas; anything good that happens gets put in the "he finally figured it out" column in ownership's eyes. The FANBASE will give credit where it's due. But WE don't directly write the checks. (We just bankroll them.)
