North Buffalo

You call those burgers.

In RORs case it may be ETOH.... withdrawls... look out Tim Hortons...

Or you could just put your head down and work harder, figuring out how to get your linemates to work harder. Same as in life, and that is what leaders do. Wilson’s quote is what OReilly should be organizing during the off season and demanding during the season.Call it professional pride. Dont need an attaboy to do a good job. Don’t get them much in the med field... so what... grow up.

Sabrespace needs some of this too.

Yes it is.

I am rooting for Nashville and NJ. Nashville because I love their game... Screw Ovi damn Putin stooge, I hope Columbus takes him out in the first round. Also, I think Columbus has a game that could go far in playoff. Same with SJ since their adds including Kane.

So if not Kane, gotta be ROR... ?

Green Bay Packers still owned by fan.

No and why post now that they have a GM. Stop..

Agreed and that may be why OReilly is pouting. He knows he screwed up not bringing Jack into the fold and instead of two opposites. By working with the young stud and being his mentor and guide this would have helped guys like Sam and ERod. The rift you see is evident by the two opposites responses and ROR being alone talking about himself on an iceberg. Love RORs game but can Sabres handle the two together. Wish they could make a peace and sit down and be amicable.

Agreed. Yeh wondering about that too.. Risto?

Also I guess I am glad guys feel frustrated, means they care. But I am not sure they really identified the it except the leadership was not very cohesive.

The question is where is shade being thrown? At the D it seems mostly... Or at defensive zone play.

Chad dont let the door hit you were the Lord Casey split you!

why listen to this milky toast

Driving across northern States from NYC to Seattle late spring. Stopping off to take family on maid of the mist, then Detroit to see Motown musuem and Hidylberg project, onto Medleine Islands on Lake Superior, then Minneapolis, then Fargo to Mt Rushmore... to Glacier National Park Grande Tetons riding the highway to the sun..., then to Seattle staying on a houseboat.. onto Vancouver with a tour of Puget Sound, then down the Coast camping on the beach in Oregon and horseback riding. Then to Humbolt County and the Redwoods and so see my brother in San Fran with a visit to Alcatraz. Final major stop on way back will be Yellowstone. My wife is a driving fool and we are taking 3.5 weeks to do it! Can’t wait!

Reasonable choice, Nashville stringest in West... Boston imo in East but hard to judge in playoffs. Sharks and Winny I think can give Nash a run for its money. East more wide open.

yes I have Winny in the final winning against Jersey as an upset to finals.

Couldve said we have lot of young players learning to play together with them. Was it frustrating yup, be we are going to keep working on meshing and learning to bring it every night. That is part of my job as one of the leaders on this team. Not this self immolation crap.

OReilly, why so negative :)

ROR is frustrated, heart and sole no bs kinda guy. Probably as hard on himself as others. Needs to lighten up, but hard to do when losing. If he and Jack want to lead this team then they need to do some off season workout team stuff in Buffalo this summer and have some fun doing it while working on ice chemistry scenarios too. PS bring the goat ties along, they need the work and some personal coaches.

Happens with young teams a lot. Just enjoy playing hard.

Agree, when the Sabres decided to play the style he was asking.. It was fun to watch. Just happened so infrequently. Part of it was talent, not enough of it.... so the guys who had it, had to work that much harder and seemed to burn them out for a few games afterwards. The other part was such poor goaltending. I am hoping the additions of some of the young guys next year help the effort level night in and out, but am still thinking they need another year before they can truly be competitive. Man it sucks waiting.
