North Buffalo

Yeh but he showed signs of developing. Sabres if they didnt make trades could have a monster back line with skaters... hindsight yadda yadda. McNabb, Zadorov, Myers and Risto with Scandella and Ghule, No OReilly, yes that would be a big issue at center, but all the firsts traded away, they could have another young center, a goalie and wingers and traded one of them for a center when they became more valuable. Sabres have been buying high and selling low for years. Between Darcy and TM management has stunk giving away good D just saying JBots plans on developing players good!

Maybe hurt but myers has two goals in 3 games.

Me, think he and his hockey trade sense was stupid. His first round trades and evals including Nylander and even Sam though it may turn out ok were less than stellar and on top of which he was a drunken arrogant jerk.

He did on Washington, which is why I wanted Sabres to trade for him. He was young and they couldn't afford to pay him with all the other contracts they had... but you could see the talent. Gotta disown you... glad your are liking Vegas, but to call them number 1 after being a Sabres fan.... sorry we don't need your kind around here. Sabres fans are fans through thick and thin... you my friend opitimize the Muffy and Dave snowflake crown... fairweather.....

They have enough talent if they put forth full effort to beat anyone, but not enough discipline and depth to be consistent. That is why they need wingers and be able to put hard working Jags on 3rd and fourth line. Plus they really need a pipeline of young players working their way up. Seems like JBots is establishing it, but itll be incremental improvement till fully implemented.

I agree with this and understand his response to a shiite season. Just saying as a leader on a team you can’t be that honest or at least not way. He needs to respond like Jack did... sure say it to friends... coach... GM, but not to the team or public... it comes across as very narcissitic and is not not helpful to the team. Goes to what Housley said about players doing their own thing, though I doubt ROR is the problem unless his sulking is infecting the rest of the team?

Panarin doesnt play D and refuses to play on penalty kill. Ovi shows up when he wants, Putin stooge. Kuznetsov not sure, the only ones really are Kucherov and Tarasenko... both anomolies to the Russian heredity... more Afinaganovesque for the rest.

Kane with 2 goals in playoff debut It was called hyper child when I was young then ADD, whatever label you guys wants is probably fine.

You have it two ice dancers dressed up as Samurais ice dancing, like Russian dancing..bring out a bear for the bruins that can play dead!

That could work but like the Sabres this year... he is dead.

Spring peeper

Hey if the did something with two Samurai warriors with actual Sabres it could work. Bring a Buffalo in on a stage and use recorded Buffalo grunt sounds as the Sabres came out might work.

Hall is an anomoly and plays a hybrid winger center because he can skate as well as most centers and sees the ice so well which is why most centers can play wing but wingers tend to be more myopic in their play and rigid with their positioning.

Generally because a center has responsibilities and tend to see the ice better. Passing is one example of this, backcheck on D is is another.

Centers are more responsible for going 200 feet helping D in front of the net, carrying the puck and having offensive prowess. Wingers tend to cover the points and rarely are responsible for going below the face off circle on D. On offense more responsible for going into corners digging out puck on Offense though Centers do it all and need to be your best skaters plus they take the majority of faceoffs. Wingers need to be able to be your best shots on offense. Some of the differences.

I just block them on my iphone. Rings partially once then cuts out! 1984 who cares... Facebook makes a gazillion $ selling data to other companies. Same as banks, grocery stores, and any of those places that have their own discount cards. All BS they should pay us for our info. I smell a Union developing where someone could join and recieve residual checks for sharing their info! Or actual meat!
