    The lack of attention to detail in the d-zone continues to plague this team.

    Won't matter how much talent they add.  They'll continue to lose until they figure out how to defend. 

    Just a question in general, is the defensive issue more of a talent issue over a system issue? Meaning if the Sabres go FA and get a defenseman or two and Power arrives will we see significant improvements or is this a Granato thing?

    I did not anticipate the hype Tuch would be getting from this fanbase.  I know someone was trying to get everyone to pump the brakes a bit on Alex. I’m here to do the same.  He’s not a superstar, or a talent like Eichel.  He’s a good player that compliments his teammates.  He may have one of those Steve Bernier debuts where he gets points, hits and maybe even a fight but he’s not the savior.  

    I think the Tuch hype that we are seeing is a result of a fan base like ours absolutely starving for anyone to believe in. Plus Tuch being a WNY guy does prop him up a bit, I understand why that happens but also it inflates his impact a bit.

    Krebs is the player that we REALLY should be waiting for, he is the key to the Eichel trade and that will not change.
