Bills twitter is mad cringe right now. Just false bravado abound. The Bills are underdogs, on the road, against an opponent they’ve never defeated in the playoffs. With a HOF QB who has never throw a pic against Buffalo in the playoffs.

Buffalo was getting the ball back with 90 seconds and two time outs, with the game tied at worst.

I don’t think any player that left here “got better”. I think most of them were good players who went from a dire situation to a competent organization. Eichel - unlikable schmuck but always been a great player Reinhart - Alway good player put into perfect situation in Florida Montour - good player prior to Buffalo, good player after. He played under Krueger, arguably the worst coach in the history of the team if not the league. Skinner - good player before and during his stint in Buffalo. Career coming to a close. Bogosian - high draft pick finally found his niche as a 5/6 dman with Tampa and wherever he ended up O’Reilly - been the same player everywhere he’s been Kane - POS that only plays when he feels like it. Rodrigues - nice role player who can play up and down your lineup. A nice depth piece but isn’t really a difference maker. Ristolainen - not good here, not good in Philly Foligno - good player here, same player in Minnesota McCabe - above average player here, same everywhere else he’s been Ullmark - good for Buffalo, great in super defensive oriented highly experienced team with some of the leagues best defensive players ever Okposo - same player here and in Florida Carrier - 4th line grinder everywhere he’s been Larsson- arguably Buffalo was his best performance Olofsson - One trick pony, hasn’t been better in Vegas Scandella - good player here, good player elsewhere Girgensons - has 2 points this season. Mittlestadt- pretty much a 0.5 ppg player regardless of uni Sheary - ancillary piece that can be good in a supporting role but isn’t never a difference maker Maybe I’m missing someone but I just don’t buy the “players get better elsewhere” narrative.

No coach is going to change these tiger stripes. They are who they are. A woefully flawed group who wilt at the first sign of pressure. They don’t work hard enough on the ice to produce regular wins. They say all the right things but rarely do them.

Bingo. It’s CYA time for the talking heads. Unfortunately, they are given a platform to project their highly uniformed opinions. I can’t change the channel fast enough when I see any of them.

Ok boomer we know!

Can we implement a mudge filter so cantankerous old jerks like me can’t see threads about drafts and prospects and the like?

Adam Adam is Luke Adam’s father, middle name AndEvenotSteveand. It’s Swedish.

This team haveth no spineth

I still don’t schnow

I do appreciate the phonetic spelling of CalGARY for our Canadian friends.

Fine but that’s his trajectory. He’s not remotely close to having a skill set requisite for a bottom six role. Unless they want him in a mismatch offensive 3rd line role akin to Roy-Vanek-Afinogenov style.

I don’t know how you can sleep at night. I’m way to superstitious to jinx the living ***** out of my team and not feel wholly responsible when said prediction doesn’t come true. KC is a two point favorite btw

Is everyone good with Kulich at center? He has twice as many goals as he does assists. Is that a desired stat line? I’d rather he play on one of the top 2 lines, regardless of position. Is McLeod not good enough to play the 4C?

and by defense you mean forwards that actually play defense, I’m assuming. There D ain’t great at playing D but they at least try. Most of the forwards on this team are too lazy, passive or soft to bother doing anything of note in the D zone.

Is this a shot at his political affiliation or sexual orientation? Just so I know for the record.

We care about face offs now?

Wait is this in reference to college football where one of 5 schools only ever has a chance at the chip?

They got a name for the winners in the world I want a name when I lose They call Carolina the Hurricanes call me inkman blues

He be illin

Does any team make it harder to get a stick to a player on the ice than the Sabres? Every other team has a guy with a stick or replace the broken stick within seconds. Sabres? Gonna be a solid 5 minutes.

for that to occur the previous off season needed to end

Sometimes my inner mudge escapes

Why do people insist on running with this?
