  1. I miss Patty LaLa and Mogilny dancing around defenses. I miss Mike Peca blasting dudes with their heads down at center ice. I miss the 05-07 teams embodying what the league wanted to become even though they abandoned that philosophy the minute the Sabres were good at it. I miss the Ray, May Barnaby days. I miss Ryan Miller’s consistency. He had his detractors. I was never one of them. He always gave the Sabres a chance to win. The Sabres haven’t had consistent goaltending since his departure. They’ve been completely forgettable since 2011. Just no one that moves the needle at all.
  2. This isn’t the first time Jordan has found himself on the 1st line this season. This is the result of a GM without the mental acuity to do anything other than what the players contracts will allow (aka keeping Östlund up based on performance) and a coach who has no creativity.
  3. That isn’t happening this season. We just have to hope Daddywantsbucks finds some other cheap version of an NHL staff. We know he’s not going to pay top dollar or bring anyone in that scares him (I.e. has opinions and wants to use them).
  4. This is nothing new
  5. I don’t care if I ever hear or see the owner of the teams I follow. Given Terry’s impeccable ability to make a normal press conference into a death knell, I don’t need to hear from him ever again.
  6. I’m strictly talking about a high profile NFL player choosing to not want to come to Buffalo. How many times have we seen it? I think he stinks and don’t really care about what players comprise CBs 6-9.
  7. I guess if you ignore the whole PR nightmare aspect of it then fine. My post had nothing to do with wanting Slay on the team.
  8. But he knew the defensive system, coaches, teammates, etc. I wasn’t super hyped with the claim as Slay has been sleighed on the reg this season but it’s another embarrassing PR slap to the face of the Bills org. Another notch in the because Buffalo bedpost.
  9. How many times have the Sabres played in Winnipeg with a 7pm EST start time? I feel like these games are always 8-9 oclock.
  10. I just think saying the Sabres need to shoot more accurately is lazy. The problem isn’t the shooters skill set. The Sabres have some of the best shooters on the league. What they need to do is develop better scoring chances so they don’t have to always pick the corners (aka Tuch always “missing the net”). It’s happening because the open looks aren’t there. So he’s left banking pucks off goalie’s backs or missing the net trying to squeeze the puck into a 4 square inch hole.
  11. None of the shooting % stats indicate that shooting is a Sabres issue. They are above average in almost every shooting metric.
  12. Because Terry’s cheap and won’t pay for anyone not employed by the team.
  13. They need to win 5 games to get above .500
