What goes up when the rain goes down

A bunch of guys that feel the rain first. I hope bigger means meaner.

Real shift at the top of the Amerks lineup: Murray, Jobst, Clague and Rousek represent veteran stability and 4 of the teams top 6 scorers. One of Bryson or Zach Jones should replace Clague on what seems a stable blueline. But up front new faces Leschsyshyn is a checker and Geertsen a thug. Carson Meyer will probably get top 6 minutes, but it looks like more responsibility for Neuchev, Wahlberg and Helenius as the team pushed them to take a step in the top 6. Östlund should continue in the 1C role he grabbed after Christmas.

Not sure there is a bigger collection of defencemen in the league right now than what the Sabres have, both on the ice and in the pipeline. Power 6’6” Kesselring 6’5” Samuelsson 6’4” Timmins 6’3” Dahlin 6’3” Byram 6’1” Mrtka 6’6” Kleber 6’6” Bedkowski 6’5” Novikov 6’4” Komarov 6’4” McCarthy 6’3” Strbak 6’2” Is this intentional? Does it matter?

Only the most dangerous my a$$. The lack of humanity and common decency is astounding. https://www.latimes.com/california/story/2025-08-14/an-l-a-area-high-school-senior-was-walking-his-dog-then-ice-agents-grabbed-him

So in other words people need to stop being people? Good luck with that.

He passed... and it was intercepted. Ptooeeyyy! Enough with this garbage! Too soon? Taking me back to days when the Bills and Sabres meant so much more to me. You hung on every word, because words were a rarer commodity. Chil'ren, this was before the Internet.

If you want to be a PEDO, rapist, murderer, you want to steal from people, you want to destroy things. All you have to do is say you support Trump and you get a free ticket to do it all. Its why there is still so many MAGA. They are those types of people.

Bills brought the physicality, Dolphins are soft as baby *****.

Neither has the history of the NHL 🙁

I’d give them a 3rd.

I’ve never seen it at quite this level

Sport gamblers that lose money on bets are harassing profession athletes to get their money back. Having known a gambler like this who demanded money from me I am not surprised. https://www.gamblingnews.com/news/brady-tkachuk-says-harassment-over-gambling-must-stop/ Tkachuk has joined a growing choir of voices that have called for the end of abuse against professional athletes, often fueled by losing wagers. ESPN’s Greg Wyshynski interviewed Tkachuk and spoke about his experience with such online abusers. Tkachuk did not hold the bag. He said people were constantly sniping at him for certain plays that didn’t come up with the bookie, accusing him of bearing responsibility, or even demanding refunds. He even had to change his Venmo account as online harassment continued on the platform. Tkachuk also said that he was surprised to find out that people would ask him for money because their bets didn’t come through, and confirmed that he would never pay back a gambler. He found the whole thing “funny,” that a fan or someone who bets on the sport would hold players to account for not making a certain play because said person had money riding on the fact.

Tiny tot of the kilowatt, sad...

Or Lindy Ruff isn't a good head coach.

NOV/DEC when we are out of it... at least now no one is enjoying hockey Nov rolls into December we are out of it hope is gone and THEN we get to watch everyone else have fun and look forward to the playoffs while we research draft prospects

In.

Listened often....called in a few times....Artie Baby Boo Boo RIP

Yes absolutely. Said that in a follow up post. The coaching and the general team philosophy since Bylsma has been offense first. I was surprised Ruff didn't teach and bring in a more detailed defensive system but maybe (going out on the optimism limb) the Euro trip messed all that up. Maybe with a full camp they can bring in a properly structured defensive system. Then we see if these guys are willing to play it and can play it. This team hasn't had good defensive structure in a really really long time.

The DC sandwich guy: While seemingly humorous, the fact he’s being charged with the highest possible crime allowed for assaulting a federal officer brings to light another thing I can’t stand about Trump; his hypocrisy. When the rioters of January 6th beat a capitol police officer with an American flag, stomped on him, and caused brain damage, President Francisco Franco Jr. saw fit to pardon them. But throw a sandwich at a cop and you face the maximum charge and sentence possible. Gimme a phucking break. Fortunately (and much to the chagrin of our Mussolini wannabe), the judge saw fit to release him without bail on his own recognizance.

… was a total clown show.

Terry Pegula is a third rate owner. KA is a third rate GM. Ruff and his coaches are a third rate coaching staff. How do you break through when you are dealing with so many liabilities? It’s a catch-22 situation that has kept this franchise stuck. The Sabres have become a dog chasing its tail franchise.

Dahlin would thrive on any of the other 31 teams, he is a star player. Sure, Krueger held him back, he was not an NHL HC either. He was just another failed Terry Pegula hire.
