  1. 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.
  2. None of the shooting % stats indicate that shooting is a Sabres issue. They are above average in almost every shooting metric.
  3. Because Terry’s cheap and won’t pay for anyone not employed by the team.
  4. They need to win 5 games to get above .500
  5. Predictions are like butt holes. Everyone has one but they all stink.
  6. The analytics department built the Sabres?
  7. Kevyn is too much of a dolt to form an opinion that matters. The reason Levi is in the AHL is because he can be. Adams doesn’t have the brain power to understand that Devon might be their best goalie not to mention Adams isn’t smart enough to promote Levi and make the requisite roster moves to accommodate the transaction.
  8. No ceiling means he could be the best athlete of all time
  9. Sure unless you are in a sports forum where multiple teams and sports are being discussed.
  10. Norris’s pass is something only a couple other guys in this team can do. Patience, timing, precision.
  11. Hot Lips Houlihan ain’t too shabby but my recollection of her far exceeds reality. Funny how the brain works.
  12. 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.
  13. Finally someone who abbreviates Pittsburgh correctly. Tired of the Pitt references. That’s a college football team.
  14. 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.
  15. 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.
  16. He Tuch’d him in a funny place. Personally, I’d let him Tuch me anywhere. Also, never start UPL on the road
  17. 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.
  18. Frankly, their goaltending, while being slightly improved over last season is still below league average. Until that’s resolved, this team is booty cheeks.
