No one wants a lower head concussion

“enthusiasm” Do the dishes!

I’ve been here, most of the last two decades. If what has happened the last 12 months hasn’t moved the needle for ya, you may be farther down the path than I ever have. Cozens, Mitts, Power, Quinn, Krebs, Samuelsson, Dahlin, Olofsson, Peterka, Johnson, UPL, Levi, Portillo, a slew of draft picks from last season who look great, another big haul of picks coming this season. I’m amped. Being in Rochester, watching all the kids, certainly makes it more tangible for me. I understand skepticism, I’m practically made of it. I’m finally feeling positivity exuding from this franchise since 05-07 days (not that I was enamored with that team as they were small and got abused).

Cheerios meet pee

Root all you want. Don’t expect everyone in here to be like minded. He’s the enemy to most of us, not because he’s a former Sabre that we all pinned our hopes on to save the franchise, because he’s on a different team.

Y’all trying to get me to blow or what

Once the purge was complete, players old and young seemed to have a burden lifted off their shoulders. All of them seem genuinely excited and happy to be here. They know the wins will come. Had they gotten anything close to average goaltending, the wins would be there.

Will the madness ever end

I still don’t see how that translates to success as a forward

Single digit temps, snow likely. No thanks. I’ll watch the game in the man cave.

With Asplund’s play of late, I’d almost rather see Girgs on that line. Rasmus has been making some squirrelly decisions.

I didn’t know giraffes could get COVID.

Be interesting to see if Fitzy makes the top 6. I’d play him over Butcher but I don’t know how handedness affects the lineup.

That bottom six is barf worthy. My lord they need to get healthy. Starting to wonder if we’ll ever see the Sabres roster in its full form.

Or Mittlestadt.

I thought it was common knowledge but I’m sure this will be news to some

His skating and shot are nowhere near where they need to be for a forward. He still has only average speed and a below average shot. He’d just look like a really slow Max Afinogenov.

The MacInnis, Mersch, Murray line. (Mmm line, Crash test Dummies?) is a lot of man. 6’4”,6’5” and Shawty Mike at 6’2”.

Laaksonen scores on a slapper from the point on the PP. I think R2 has the assist
