See the Practice report from today.

I'm glad Montreal is sitting as a "good" team right now. Hopefully our guys will be more motivated. Housley shouting at them in practice isn't a great sign though...

I knew it. You've been lying about hating Mighty this whole time.

I think everyone here actually likes Matt Ellis.

I hate that I like Laviolette for something.

I believe it. Don't plugs tend to make better head coaches?

Matt Ellis coaching skills. Damn.

I could be inclined to agree.

This x10000

I like those lines. Wouldn't it be nice if Casey broke out on Thursday?

I think, as has been mentioned in another thread, that the Sabres position in the standings come Thanksgiving will be a major deciding factor. If we're sitting in a wildcard/playoff spot, then I think re-signing Skinner before the deadline becomes much more likely.

Everyone does.

Montreal on Thursday is a big test. Win that matchup against a division rival and it would be the Sabres first 3 game win streak since January 2018, and their fourth since January 2017. They also haven't had a 3 game win streak in October since 2011...

Edmonton has only played 6 games to Buffalo's 9 though... Beaten by a hair...

I don't want them to offer him 8 years.

Bogo needs to stop fighting people though. He's going to hurt himself.

Trick question: it's Pizza Logs.

Mmmm even strength scoring. That's the stuff.

And clapping wins process.

He could have been. He very nearly won a Cup in Vegas last year. Maybe Pittsburgh would have won more Cups with him than with Hornqvist and Spaling...

James Neal is a bad example though, isn't he? They traded the guy a few years after they signed him to a very reasonable 6 year deal (at 25) and he has continued to produce. If anything they should have kept Neal.

I appreciate you bumping this. It was noted in the post-game last night that apparently after the losses to Vegas and San Jose the players had a bunch of meetings and hashed a lot out. I don't know who called those meetings or who the leadership voices were, but I have to imagine Jack was at least partially responsible.

Pittsburgh doesn't cut their most important players loose.

It's kind of the way of the NHL though. You just sorta have to do it in order to lock good players up. Everyone is giving out deals like that.

I'm happy. Anything that continues to bury McBeane for their stupidity.
