K-9

Not suggesting we are at that point. I’m just saying we are at the point where the best we can offer isn’t good enough.

Thompson is better than Eichel. 😂

We need more skill, better D, and better goaltending. Other than that though, we are golden and good to go.

😂

The point remains. Bryson and Joker are not optimal. Could be worse, as we’ve been seeing for weeks now.

He has no chance on all those deflected goals off of Sabre players.

We can do better, imo. And we will need to. I’m suspect of Bryson and Joki.

Isn’t that like five deflected goals off of Buffalo players in the last three games? WTF?

I think we will still need one when they come back.

He does that every six games or so. But in the meantime…

Agreed. But we have to put up with those growing pains because he needs to be developed in the NHL imo. His analytics seem to bear that out, iirc. But I’ll leave that to our resident analytics gurus for confirmation.

Kulich is looking good in the A, especially for an 18 year old.

Glad Cozens got let off the hook there.

50/50 on this challenge.

How many times? How many fluky goals.

Phuck!

Last minute changes dictated I couldn’t get to the game tonight, but my BIL and sister say the atmosphere is jumpin.

😂

Juicy rebound.

Gionta, Gorges, and O’Reilly are as good a leadership group as you can have. It was Eichel’s choice to reject their examples and gravitate towards Kane, Bogo, and Lehner. I’m sure they were much more fun to hang around as the testimony from various downtown haunts suggests.

It’s a defense mechanism.

Heard Duffer on the radio say that Rousek has been cleared by the Amerks and is good to go.

Tongue in cheek.

Can’t teach that.

Not necessarily. If Johnny walks back his remarks, shows appropriate contrition, and apologizes to the great fans of Buffalo for his classless insult, then we might find it in our hearts to forgive him. Maybe.
