    Clearly Rempe will only make it and stay in the NHL by fighting and dirty crap...I have no interest in a one-dimensional player like this. Sabres need someone who can actually play anmd make a contrubtion but answer the bell when needed. Marcus was real good...  

    Actually kid can skate, forecheck, beast in front of the net... not a bad shot either...

    Does make him a team player however; you can be the most pass happy fiery player imaginable but still be too much of a loose cannon to make work within the lines. His persona is what is wrong in hockey these days, the "look at me" obsession and need to shine the spotlight on himself clashes violently with the general state of hockey which is team first, individual player second. I have no issue with Michigan goals or having fire; I have the issue with his way of displaying his fire by playing hockey in an almost overly "game-like manner" Yes, hockey is just a game but this is also their jobs and it makes it hard to trust his fire to win every game versus personal stats.

    I cant answer that question directly but from the locals they say yes he is a team player...  as far as look at me they all do that in this media snap chat world and as much as you and i think it is annoying i am not sure they think that much about it and kinda just do those Barnum & Bailey expressions and move on meh...

    He seems very happy and enthusiastic but doesn't seem like a guy who hates to lose. He gives me a lot of Skinner vibes.

    Headcase isn't the right term but his persona feels like a major problem for winning.

    I think you misjudge his fire, Dad played college hockey and then coached...

    If he were any other guy I'd be interested, but he's a headcase.

    I know his Dad, my brother in law is good friends with Dad... kid isnt a head case... young and enthusiastic... all the kids at my son's high school say he is a great guy... may need to learn to turn it down a bit for the curmudgeons on Sabrespace... helluv a talent

    I think we get our ass kicked tonight and we can officially move on from this playoff pipe dream we have this year. 13 years and counting in a league where 1/2 the teams go to the playoffs is straight disgusting. I am disgusted as a fan that ownership lets this happen. But, unfortunately i will be sitting my old ass in front of the TV tonight watching the Titanic sink for the 13th time....LOL 

    Hard to look away from a train wreck.

    That purposeful slash (couldn’t see who did it) was intended to intimidate or hurt Dahlin… It happened a couple minutes before the period ended… Have to believe Dahlin mentioned on the bench or in the locker room between periods… Yet, there was no retaliation by any Sabre at the start of the next period… If Dahlin told his teammates what happened a Sabre should have taken the guy out and dropped gloves…

    Sure it was a close game, but you have to respond to that kind of cheap shot on a key player.

    We need a few grown men with  stand up courage on this team. It can’t always be let go or fall to Clifton or a kid to respond.

    If Dahlin said nothing and the team was unaware, I take back everything but the previous paragraph.

    Do your job, Adams.

    Which is why Sabres need to draft Lingren

    Thanks to everyone who replied to my question. I'm very aware of the rules of ESPN+ regarding blackouts and national games. What I don't know is what happens when NHL Network grabs the Sabres MSG broadcast for their national game. Does that game ever end up on ESPN+ on-demand?

    Gonna find out... ps need Caps, Joisey and Quins to lose today

    After being one of UPL's strongest critics, he has definitely turned the corner and playing well in the crease. Now that he is making the saves, he needs to now work on his play behind the net. He gives the puck right to the opposing team an awful lot.

    Greenway is not a top line player IMHO. I don't get the logic of him being there. The Thompson line becomes less of a threat when he is on it. He doesn't have the play making prowess to match up with Thompson and Tuch. He's a third/fourth liner who can fill in on the second line.

    Unlike Skinner he can retrieve pucks and be physical... also it was a wake up call to Skinner's figure skating lately... ps Skinner played a lot better this game along the boards so maybe it works... I like the switch
