Two good road periods for the Sabres. Just need one play now.

Gee, you think the book is out to get under the skin of the Sabres? Who would have guessed?

Do these guys know they can talk to each other on the ice?

That’s fine. They need someone besides Josh that can do that.

We are doing all these great (better) things on offense not even spending to to cap floor. If KA can’t use that to make the team better enough to make the playoffs, then WTF is he good for? The playoffs have to to be at least the expectation next year. I mean, they have to be! I don’t want to hear development year ever ***** again. And I even agree with it for this year. Next year. No way. They are going to have to start demanding that they win. They need to use that cap space to get good players that will help them win. Period. And I don’t give a flyin ***** if they “want to be here.” Heck, I don’t want to be at my job, but I’m good at it and they pay me to do it, so I do my very best at it.

I just hope he makes the Bills better.

Great read. You are pretty spot on with everything. Am I out of line for thinking that it’s gotta happen next year, though? I mean, I don’t expect a SCF appearance, but they have to be a lock for the playoffs next year, right? Maybe with even a shot at a second round series? I don’t think that’s unreasonable.

I think they are out. I kinda think they are in a seven game losing streak and just don’t know it yet. God, I hope I am wrong.

That's just not true. They wouldn't lead the league in drops if it were. Watch other games. Other teams' receivers fight for the ball way more than ours. Unless Josh hits them right in the hands, and WIDE OPEN, they don't catch it. Other than Diggs, that is. I'm so sick of this argument.

This is not true. The are 7th in attempts (still pretty high). They are 22nd in comp%. I honestly couldn't believe they brought JB back. I'm glad he was only targeted once (drop) on Sunday. I've been saying for years that our receivers don't do Josh any favors. All the people shouting about Josh's accuracy always drowned me out.

Is it just coincidence that the Warrior hockey logo kinda looks like the Hebrew letter shin, while simultaneously looking like a guy about to be hacked in his left shin by a hockey stick?

Sorry. Not buying it. It makes no sense to use the back to back excuse when the team you played was on the very same back to back.

This makes no sense. Pittsburgh played Buffalo the day before. Why didn’t Pittsburgh look tired, but Buffalo did?

I really don't think it applies to the Sabres at all. They're too young. The fact that it was a back to back should have been an advantage for them against the older Pens. Sabres just aren't that good.

k, but why bring up back to backs at all?

Nice dive, Hamonic.

It's not coaching. It's roster,... and youth. See oilers video below. I disagree, as well. https://www.google.com/search?q=wayne+gretzky+losing+stanley+cup+finals&rlz=1C1GCEA_enUS858US858&source=lnms&tbm=vid&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwjZw-uJyfT7AhXKFFkFHcpuBmMQ_AUoA3oECAEQBQ&biw=1440&bih=927&dpr=1#fpstate=ive&vld=cid:d9996e0e,vid:kB3nC82xhLw You do realize that the Penguins also played the night before, right?

No. That’s funny.

That hit on Cozens by Letang (that's French for "the tang") was just beautiful, and why he is who he is. I've watched it more times than I care to admit and just don't see a penalty. It's those physical plays that kill us. I really wish that the team that I love and root for weren't such a bunch of f'n dandies.

I watch the theatrical versions and I have no idea what is going on,… and I read the books,… several times.😂 They just leave too much out for my liking. I find the extended versions to have more of a similar pacing to the books. Definitely like them better.

Are you talking about the extended editions? I always hated the new Lord of the Rings until these came out. They are great.

This has nothing to do with coaching. It still has everything to do with the roster.

The ref that passed it to him still gets free THo's doesn't he?

He did not take a high stick. He may have been tripped but it was after he took a hard enough check where he was most likely going down anyway. F'n pussies. They can cry all they want, but until they start imposing their will, they will be just that, a bunch of f'n pussies.
