Palm Trees And Taxes

Happy Birthday Terry! Here is a Bills and Sabres cake to show how deeply you care about both franchises:

I'm guaranteeing a Sabres win tonight 4-3

Who in the world is in goal tonight and which goalie will face over 40 shots again?

This is something that I have said here a few years ago: Botterill and Tim Murray were hired in the wrong sequence. Botterill would have been good when Eichel was first drafted to keep building the pipeline and the young talent. Once that talent started to flourish, Murray would have been a good GM to come in and be aggressive with trades to take the Sabres to the next level.

Im on your side there, I have said a few times this year 'I miss Darcy Regier' LOL

About the coaching: I would love a players perspective on this but its pretty clear the Granato is going to be an interim HC and the locker room has to know this so considering the long losing streak, missing some key players, and most of the players knowing A. A good amount of this team will be jettisoned out of Buffalo and B. Why give it all for a coach that may not be here long anyway? I think its hard to TRULY judge what the coaching change means at this point in time, until a true replacement is here that the Sabres intend on keeping around for a few years at least.

Thats true and its really hard to say what could have been, but I do remember the groans of the Sabre fan base back then about the Sabres 'just missing the playoffs' and being mediocre under Darcy: I say then when the Sabres lost Briere and Drury on that terrible day, it might of been better to nuke the entire team in a sense and start anew.

I actually think this take is dead on. It is time to press the nuke button on this,provided the Sabres have the right pieces in place in the front office to build this correctly, AKA Terry and Kim staying the hell out of the way and keep taking victory laps on the NFL Network.

And on top of that the Sabres would have been so bad without Vanek that their OWN 1st round picks could have been very high and produced better players.

UPL is 22. It is time to see what the kid can do! LETS GO UPL!!!

It is so bad now I truly believe the Buffalo Sabres are better off folding as a franchise and coming back as an expansion team to get ridiculous Vegas like benefits

Agree. Small steps at a time and getting Ullmark and Eichel back while this group of players that the Sabres might keep gel would be a welcome sight. As for the players that Adams will not keep, jettison them ASAP

The Sabres Banners guy on Twitter should make a banner for tonight At Least Cozens Scored - 3/22/2021

If you are at a bar its good

I still think if Sabres do a 50% retain on salary they can still fetch a low 1 from a contender

Old habits are hard to break

Might take 3 minimum to make a true difference with this bunch

I still say at the time Hall was a good roll of the dice for a year but now is the time to say saynora to Taylor.

Or about 12 cents per Sabres SOG

If the Sabres get a 5th round pick they should do an episode of Buffalo Sabres Embedded: 'How The Sabres Swindled A 5th Round Pick From The Avs'

I wonder if the COVID angle is really holding things up here, players need to be tested, do the Sabres need to quarantine again etc

For a 1st 2nd and an elite prospect? Oh wait Im playing NHL 21. Carry on

Kim and Terry, throw the $ at Kevin Weekes make him President,Czar whatever he wants. Weekes is exactly what this franchise needs.
