North Buffalo

Bout the only thing the Sabres faithful can enjoy...

Yeh pretty disappointing, But who knew Snow would be able to pull this off after his past incompetence.

I don't buy the argument. The Sabres D isn't the real problem, it is scoring and puck control. There have only been a few games that the Sabres have been blown out until recently with the revolving door at D. The Sabres need forwards that can score and bring the puck up the ice. Until that happens the D will occasionally struggle and would with Boychuk and Leddy. The Isle problems were not their forwards last year, but their D sucked. Now that they are playing D and have Tavares back it makes sense in hindsight that they are good.

LOL, I think that may have already happened... The get rid of Stafford thread is still alive.... I rest my case...

It helps that they have a number 1 guy in Tavares... Sabres still need one so who cares only in that the Isle actually got some players that make them legit instead of tanking along with the Sabres and giving them an extra shot at McEichel.

:P

Tank on... Getting closer to McEichel... Only 2 points back... Need Oilers to win or at least tie to make some progress in next game.

You obviously never saw McAdoo play. On some bad teams he led the NBA in scoring for 3 years. He won rookie of the year and was sixth man on two LA Laker championship teams. Gotta include him in there with Gil. You younguns need to research your Buffalo sports history. When I was young all the talk was about Cookie Gilchrist. Didn't see him play so I am not sure. Agreed! Why I fell in luv with Buffalo sports in grammar, middle school.

LOL, p.s. that is not a dandruff flake but dust on the camera's lens or sensor.... too out of focus for dandruff flake.

Jocelyn Geuvremont is a better D name than Boxmeer imo. Playfair was just ironic.

Sigh, yup this team is tough to watch with no players that can carry the puck up ice except members of an overwhelmed D. Just keeping an eye on the prizes McEichel and the rest of number draft pics. Last night was a very good win for the Carrion standings though.

Sabres look they just got tired.

Like Armia's puck skills, still learning speed of game all game, but his puck skill are impressive.

Sorry only my beer league team is aloud to carry that motto "Remember your an ICEHOLE, We Suck" No prospects allowed...

Offensive and Mike Milbury, aren't those redundant statements?

I am so loving this. If all the Sabres could play like Z, the Stanley cup would be in Buffalo this year. Keep it up.

Sitting here in CT scan waiting for the next Patient from the ER and doing continuing ED physics... Dose Response models... yikes... no wait, I am not listening to the game only reading this board. Bleacher has a report out stating Myers likely gone shortly. No real destination listed though. Keep the tank going.

My love is hurting to for both teams, especially the Bills. God they need a QB with an arm, vision and attitude. Sabres still have hope, but if they don't get a McEichel, it is going to a tough pill to swallow and I see some dark years to come... Dark I say. Doom and Gloom... straight out of Ghost Busters... Seriously though, it will be sad to suffer this much and then still have no hope. Sabres need some hope.

Ok, now that the Sabres have won 2 in a row, I hope they quit this winning and get back the priority of the McEichel sweepstakes. Please just stop scoring. I can deal with 0-1 losses. Keep playing solid D.

Wish I could send you my 29 inch Ariens snowblower to you.... Be Safe

That is the one I was talking about in 2001 where my wife visited Buffalo for xmas for the first time. It was a doosy. Still not 1977. Stay Safe, looks pretty intense. For those who don't remember or were not born yet in '77. Buffalo had about 3 feet on the ground before the blizzard and then over about 5 days we got 12-21+ feet with sustained 50mph winds and gusts over 70mph. Needless to say ranch houses were buried that year and I could walk out my second floor window onto the porch roof and onto the snow. It was wild. Delaware park was used as a snow dump and ended up with 70 foot high mountains of snow that didn't melt till late June that year. Lots of people died on the Highways from Carbon monoxide, because they were unable to keep their tailpipes clear. Be safe and carry a shovel.

Today, I was able to go up and back from Amherst, MA and then enjoy the game on my warm couch as my boys played mind crap on their ipads. Nice to see a win and solid D for the most part. Only wish Weber was a better skater and puck handler, jeez he battles hard.

Agreed, both maybe in one trade to Detroit?

Ah, good old Buffalo snow. I started my first paper route the day the Blizzard of 77 hit. We dug a fort in the back yard that you didn't have to pile up snow and could stand up in. The first year my wife came up to Buffalo, we drove from DC two days before x-mas and there was no snow on the ground. She was grumbling about it and said something sarcastic being an NYC girl. I said be careful what you wish for. Started snowing the next day and we got 5 feet before it was all said it done. Needless to say I got the last laugh. We get a little now that I am near Danbury, CT in the NY side of the border but nothing compared to the good old days. Grocery shelves empty. You guys are becoming pansies. Should already have enough stocked. Streets will be cleared in a day or two max. Folks must be listening to much tot he hype. Turn off the TV and radio once it starts and take the kids outside for some fun. Common Buffalo, don't become like the wimps in the South. I am so ashamed to hear this reaction.

Yeh, I fell asleep after the hattrick too. Didn't see the third. Still like the D. The fact that Stafford is still on this team makes me sick though.
