I don’t care what Shittsbugh’s record is, they are ass. No idea how they’ve beaten anyone quite frankly. Just not a good team. Browns, Jets, Panthers and Flacco let Bengals account for most of their wins. Not exactly murderers row.

Finally someone who abbreviates Pittsburgh correctly. Tired of the Pitt references. That’s a college football team.

Goons aren’t the answer. I’m as blood thirsty as the next guy but the Sabres need actual hockey players, like Josh Doan, who can play, hit and fight. Standing up for teammates isn’t foreign or forced for him. It’s what you are taught from juniors on up. Dunne is ok in that regard although his foot speed will always be a handicap. Tuch needs to drop em. Greenway needs to drop em. All the defenseman need to drop em. Maybe not Dahlin due to the minutes he logs and we know Power will get destroyed in any kind of physical confrontation. It’s been proven that goons don’t influence the other teams actions.

Sadly, despite all the hub bub about their lack of response to just about everything (mostly stemming from Noesen’s hit on Tage last season, which ironically Tage settled against NJ), this is still the same team full of non responders. It can’t be a decision making process. It needs to be instant unbridled rage. The kind that gets you 17 minutes in penalties because you lose your *****. Dahlin being out there (again) when it happens and stick taps are the response is pathetic. Does the teams attitude stem from his indifference? Just looking for answers.

He Tuch’d him in a funny place. Personally, I’d let him Tuch me anywhere. Also, never start UPL on the road

If Ellis flames out than it may be time to see if Levi can be the guy. It’s probably too much of a mental hurdle for Kevyn to figure out how he can do that with 3 goalies already on the roster but it’s probably time to cut bait with at least one of them. We all want it to be UPL, I just don’t see a buyer out there even at 50% salary retention which we know Daddy Wantsbucks isn’t fond of.

Frankly, their goaltending, while being slightly improved over last season is still below league average. Until that’s resolved, this team is booty cheeks.

Now that was a Sabres style goal

Probably because that’s not what he’ll fetch

In theory and in my brain it could be infinite. In some pseudo Canadian way of thinking, I guess we are to assume day to day is less than a week so 7 days or less. I hate these injury designations. It’s like injuries for dummies.

I really don’t like Kaprizov

I think I’d be mad if they called that a penalty if a Sabre did the same thing.

Not seeing much intent from Meier’s perspective. Mattias basically skated directly into his elbow. Maybe there is more intent than I perceive. The way his arm behaves after contact doesn’t look like someone throwing an appendage to cause damage.

We’ve all been clamoring for years why hasn’t Terry done anything. A few of the posters here caught on. It’s always about the money. Daddy Wantsbucks won’t pay people not on the staff anymore. He did it with Hodgson, Ehrhoff, Skinner and Krueger (just to name a few off the top of my head). I know @LGR4GM has tied his frugality to the stadium overrun costs, the timing works along with Terry needing to sell parts of the Bills franchise to assist with those costs. So if there is a silver lining, the Stadium costs will be eliminated by next season. So maybe then we’ll see a corollary increase in spending on the Sabres. I’m not holding my breathe as there were signs Terry was done spending on the Sabres long before the Stadium became a thing.

Apparently it bears repeating. It never matters what the other team has done previously while playing the Sabres. They are the antidote for teams playing the night before or mired in a losing slump. No worries, your Buffalo Sabres are here to make sure everyone’s favorite team get a leisurely game to play where only a modicum of effort can propel you to the W column. Who the hell knows if or when that’s gonna happen but probably not on a road trip.
