North Buffalo

makes the punishment fit the crime.... ps a whole game in front of everyone. Please not respectful to the player or the team for being late. Hit him in his pocket. Reserve the shame bit for something a whole lot worse. Im fine with a punishment just not this... Again bad coaching.

Then fire GMTM for not communicating with DD.... thought their communication was good?

Me too...

Non sequitor... 2nd overall draft pic... if Murray loves DD that much then trade Sam, because DD's gonna mess him up and the team and nfw Jack resigns here as a result. If that is gonna happen TPegs might as well sell the team now! Pi your off your meds this morning.., bad news man, bad news in my best Denis Hopper voice.

Because old school doesnt work, proven counter productive which is why its called old school.

Still got closer to Sabres in standings and WPegs just jumped over Sabres... Tankerooosky...

Interesting... but they sent the guys down instead of keeping Fasching and Fedun up... with all those injuries was risking a lot... guess D-Lo can play D... but man is he done on offense and not appropriate with Eichel. So really a management screw up not having some backups around... Rochester is not that far... jeez... how late in the day was the meeting...

Another mess up they didn't call anyone up, lots of injuries on D so no, and Okposo is out sick... DD mismanaging the team too.

Exactly... And if this was a good veteran team maybe then but for a minor infraction.. I still disagree... Shaming only breeds more resentment... and resistance.

Blsyma sucks..., Blysma sucks...., BLYSMA SUCKS...., BLYSMA SUCKS

Benching a young star for anymore than a couple of shifts is just plain stupid, Kane or otherwise and no we didn't ask for Murray to trade Kane over missing the thing in TO last year... Was more worried about him out on the town in Buffalo... Sure Sam screwed up, but your statement is idiotic... and Dan should be fired because of it..

As someone stated in the game thread playing him out of position, not at center, not making plays which is his strength.... Dan has misused Sam all season. Minus him and Okposo showed how little depth the Sabres have at forward and screwed up Dan is as a coach. Heck sit him for three or four shifts in the first, but over a meeting at the end of a losing season and a back to back... Betting he overslept. Dude Dan is goner and has to know it. This is a bunch of crap. Not sure he had to be on the bench for anything but the start of the game. Even so, the whole game. Guess Sam said something smartassed as Blysma deserved but he shouldn't have said... Gionta is just plain wrong... I have a 12 year old and you don't just sit him, you keep on him and keep teaching... Sam isn't 12 and if I am Sam, I demand a trade tonight. I go to Tim Murray and then leak something to the press if he doesn't agree to... but that is just me... PS If this is the case, I do my best to make sure the team loses out the entire rest of the season including the leaves game...

You cant show up players like that it isnt pre-school.

Found out Sam was behind Trump Tower bugs about Russians.

Ah season over and hopefully so is Dan.. or was Sam one of the locker room leakers?

Out drinking or late for meeting or bus? Big difference...

Another stupid DD decision.

Wtf refs are giving game to BJs

DD should be gone for this with Sam at this point in the season. Really think unless Sam is hurt, this is a career ender as Sabres coach. Unless they had words... if so I choose Sam over DD.

Hold on to hockey equipment till after next year's sabresapce meetup.

no before game really my first reaction.... meh

Hmm that might help the ant DD cause. Also, having two big decent skating D unless you can find a Risto clone in the draft, I really think helps Lehner. ( Falk and Austin) Not as much BS in front of the net.

i Awesome, how was the falls?

Kuli has had a season, back messed with him a good part of it and who knows how long the concussionactually bothered him. He has looked much better lately... but with Austin and Falk showing up and Ghule coming, suddenly the D is looking big, nasty and mobile. Im ok with Risto, McCabe, Falk, Austin, Bogo and Ghule next year, though given all the injuries d guys endure, id like to see Kuli back.

Ill work on it with other locals... Good Bills Bar in New Rochelle and Stamford on train lines... Citifield accesible by train.... places to stay in westchester or ct hotels, maybe a group rate... Play Sabres games there and decent wings... open to suggestions also gotta go to places in citi.
