Okay, who's got $700+ mil just for the fee?

Well we need to put a call out to any billionaire with local ties who likes hockey (or not) and is willing to lose millions every year until who knows?

Sabres are worth over a billion in GTA or Quebec City, $800-900 mil in Houston. And move? Who'd want to step in and keep the Sabres in Buffalo right now? As a hockey market it's a basket case right now with the border semi-closed.

He was solid. But he also didn't face any really dangerous chances. I guess the good news is the Sabres players better D. (Though it could also be due to the Ducks being tired.) The bad news is Stolarz, the Ducks goalie, was even better he shut the Sabres out

This is one of the smallest crowds I've seen.

They are having a bad night on offense, but a surprisingly decent defensive game. UPL looks confident making saves but he hasn't had to face a breakaway.

That's gonna be a social media viral goal. They went going to overturn it.

When you watch tonight, pay close attention to how a turnover, bad pass or blocked shot etc. will trigger a rush and extended possession in our end. Then see how long it takes us to regain possession and get out of our end, assuming a goal isn't given up before that can happen. Now compare how often we do that to the other guys and how easily they can exit their zone.

That's the hope. But I wonder if outcomes are steered to achieve certain attractive matchups.

They reached the conference final last year. Did that disappoint you?

We expected more from the Bills.

Not only is it addictive, but it's only a matter of time before we find out about games being rigged by players or refs betting on games. Even leagues massaging outcomes. It's the beginning of the end IMO. That said, I do enjoy dropping $10-20 on the odd game. I hate to admit it but I had such a bad feeling about the Bills I put a small wager on the Pats last night.

A perfect opportunity to make folks forget about Monday night.

How do you explain it? Bad luck?

Sorry I asked then. But I think this is one of those cases where analytics obscure what's actually happening in the ice. Goaltenders are not miracle workers. If you can't defend your end no goalie will help you win

Sorry. Not buying it. I know what I see. Too many guys left open while we're chasing our tails in our own end. Swap goalies all you want. Nothing significantly changes until you fix the D, unless you're good with losing 4 or 5-2 instead of 6-2.

Where is the stat that takes into account the breakaways off turnovers at the blue line?

What consequences does Dahlin suffer other than looking like a tool costing his teams games? Sure his demeanor says it weighs on him, yet the mistakes keep coming. To the point that other team know to target him when he has the puck.

How many goals are the result of one certain player who can't stop coughing the puck up, especially on powerplays?

So it's your opinion that Adams doesn't see goaltending as a problem.

You need a backkup.

I'm certain that will happen.

And what basis are you assuming Karmanos would immediately fix the goaltending issue?

This is shocking.
