  1. True but even late it would be worth while seeing his head bounce off the ice.
  2. In the mean time the Sabres need to learn how to pass as a team. Not talking, Jack, Ok, Sam or RoR. But the D except Antipin who seems to get it and the top two. But as a team on the move. Hand eye coordination drills with passing... Zemgus... EK... ERod... this goes for you. Learn how to cycle and stay on your feet. Teach forcheckers how to hit and finish. Oh the list goes on.
  3. Now if they can just get 2 more scorers with hand and hockey sense.
  4. yes was thinking that range.. Looking at lists but really not sure about any of their potential and Sabres are gonna need some in the pipeline.
  5. Perron on Vegas list of trade bait. Wonder if him plus a young D and a pick would get it done? http://www.tsn.ca/tsn-hockey-s-trade-bait-list-1.203546
  6. Wondering about D on this list that might go high in the second round or if Sabres dont get Dahlin, get one of the top O guys, but trade Kane for a number 1 later round, who on D might they go for?
  7. Trade Lehner now, value is as high it will ever be...
  8. Nice to see 5...wow didnt see that coming.
  9. The flu has been really tough this year. Lots of deaths this year and people really laid out for extended periods of time. XRayed more people with pneumonia than I can remember. It started late but made up for it in a short period of time with ferocity.
  10. I have had female bosses and male bosses. Some were good, some idiots and just plain batshit crazy. Sex had nothing to do with any of that but very easy to stereotype. Dont know KP but my guess is if you have to be the hammer you might as well embrace it. I think they finally found some folks they like Housley and his wife probably fit the mode. As a pure business woman, she sounds straight forward, mess up and you have to go. Communicate and Be respectful and she probably returns the favor no matter the circumstances.
  11. Fresh blood would help long term.
  12. Oh no you didnt LMAfAO...
  13. byw can you correct the spelling of Seatle on the headline... it needs a t... :) My vote is Seattle Syncophants.
  14. Was thinking the same thing... Amazing how the Sabres put me to sleep, unlike when I was a kid laying down with the radio under my pillow so my parents wouldn't find out.
  15. This and because I don't have to work tonight...
  16. And I think that is the problem with the Sabres. While Kane doesn't pass enough and have very good ice awareness of his teamates, he is a finisher. OK has stepped it up recently, but Sam needs these type of players on his line with the ability to get him the puck where he can make that pass. Kane would have more goals if he was better at passing the puck to a distributor. He seems to only score off the rush. Sam does need to get stronger on the puck and I have seen him trying more. I still think his issue is a matter of body position in the corners. Not sure if it leg strength or lowering his shoulders in the corner, but he is too easily knocked off the puck. There are small guys like Zucarella who are much tougher in the corners. Sam needs to get a little bit of rat in him to create space. I would not mess with Jack's skating style... it is a little awkward looking but very effective, but his pure strength and he is showing it more in the corners is coming along. Again the Sabres need snipers, that is why Nylander is so disappointing in his effort, because he has the skills and a relatively big body, but plays much smaller than his size. It is a mind set going into the corners. That puck is mine attitude... a mean streak... that is why I like Tchakuk and the big Russian in the draft. They seem to have that ability. Short of the Sabres being able to draft Dhalin... one of those two would be ideal and if they can find a later 1st rounder in a suspected Kane trade that is a rat with attitude I believe would greatly benefit the Sabres. I still hope one of the Euros in the pipeline will be able to step up soon.
  17. [quote name="Georgia Flakt" post Maybe by a little bit? You are what your record says, by and large. We only have a few talented players. We are getting almost no production from the majority of the roster. The majority of the roster is terrible. No they have a serious lack of talent up front, missing a piece or two on D and a goaltender. That is a lot of missing pieces.
  18. Housley should just resign out of frustration at the lack of talent. This is not coaching. The Sabres dont have enough hockey talent.
  19. Its an indication of how bad they set each other, passing sucks. No snipers on this team other than Jack it truly is sad but they need so much. Girgenson should be 4th line but Sabres dont have the talent. Gonna be 2 more years before this thing straightens out.
  20. Holy crap our D cant pass and Risto is checked out. WTF this game is ugly.
  21. Stars passing and movement is so good.
  22. Id comment but what is the Lehner
