  1. The amount of Sabres fans all worried and nervous about Levi. He is cut from a different cloth than most Gs his age. I can't say that about most prospects but with Levi he just stands out with his his puck tracking vision, and positioning. Like he is already a 10 year pro. I don't see him getting 50+ starts this season, but I do see him in the conversation for multiple rewards at seasons end. I think he'll play/start close to 40 games
  2. When you have the chance to make 100% +++ profit on your tickets for a few games a year after dumping $2500+++ on Seasons it makes sense for many.
  3. Pesce and Sabres are mentioned in this article. Only team mentionjed. Sounds like Carolina is holding out to see if the Ante gets upped https://www.yardbarker.com/nhl/articles/hurricanes_gm_provides_direct_update_on_trade_contract_talks/s1_16454_39143593
  4. The G.O.A.T of hockey broadcasting IMO a big time loss... Glad he got a heluva a send off when he retired
  5. Capitialism at some point will consume itself. We can debate this but I'm not interested in doing so because I will have to retort all your views and that will just go on and on. I stand 100% behind my thoughts... I see whats happening. The system will collapse upon itself.... eventually and probably within a few generations
  6. yes it is, but it is beyond obvious the system will consume itself. You can't deny the rich are getting richer and poor poorer.... Kids today will be expected to have 3-4 million saved if they want to retire. And then there is inflation. Zero $$$ is Zero $$$ but what used to be considered middle class keeps rising faster than overall wage and benefits. So that gap from zero to middle class is getting larger and more and more are falling into that gap. My grandparents only had one parent working fulltime. When I was growing up Dad worked fulltime and Mom was part time and benefits had no co-pays and the bills coming in were much less regarding healthcare. Me and my wife both had to work fulltime to live a similiar life and we spend $5k a year on medical crap. Today both parents better be working fulltime and best have a side hustlle and who knows what it will take to maintain healthcare. Parents tommorow might start denying themsleves healthcare do to cost. And thats just off the top of my head Eventually it will consume itself and chaos will reign... Yes I also agree human nature is shaped my evolution which is why I made the caveman reference....
  7. fixed that for you Although I understand your pessimism with humans in positions of power (heck humans in general are this way) but we don't have that technology yet for energy producing. They are working Nuclear fusion but that is decades away. Serioulsy think about how long we have been a modern society, basic power production started in 1882, so only 140 years. Having the ultimate cheap free power that was invented in such a small timeline isn't very conceivable. Computers have been around since the 1940's but we are just now venturing in quantum physics / computing so I seriously doubt we have reached the level you think they are hiding from us. But I do believe they will try to monetize it before ever letting people have it for free..... Capitialism will be a major downfall for humanity eventually, what rises from the ashes we can only hope will represent what humans can truly be going forward. Humans around the world will need to unite for the betterment of humanity, today's humans are in it for themsleves, which is the end results of our monetary systems. We are all still cavemen in the big picture. Hoarding anything and everything that makes our lives better for our ourself, we need to get past this mentality and that will take a horrific event to change the mindset.
  8. I think Sabrespace in need of some moderation now, the board is officially a cluster *****
  9. Rasmus will bring more offense and he is the better skater. Power won't be too far behind in accolades
  10. But really its was Kevyn Adams who was disguised as Fiona
  11. The ultimate Goaltender would be 6.0' ft tall.... but is also 6.0' wide.
  12. Cup and Char pepperoni for the win !!!!!!!!! although when it comes to the dough super thin crust for me... dare I say Brooklyn style. Living out here in Washington state it took me over a decade to find a pizza place suitable for my sophisticated Buffalo pizza palette
  13. Then we view the glass of water differently. Players are willing to sign here on a hometown discount.... in hindsight Tage and Cozens were signed ahead of major breakout seasons... I'm sure Kevin is not demanding a thing. You can choose to sign or you can bail. The offers on the table. Haven't heard one player complain about it ...yet.
  14. OR Owen can see how the Sabres Organization treats its players overall (Dahlin), see's the uptick of the franchise and wants to continue to be apart of that knowing after his bridge deal he'll get another fat raise. Kevyn is building a culture and players seem to want to stay and are willing to sign for a little less to be apart of this. Not sure if I'm off on the point that was trying to be made, but having players want to play here is a nice change.... Hopefully building the team, retaining our own will form bonds between the players that will make it hard for them to want to leave...
  15. How can anyone say he's undervaluing assets when the player and agent agree to the terms ?
  16. He's 26 and never played a game in the NHL? does he have any chance of being Sabre? haven't heard too much about him, but Sabrenoise thinks he was rock solid in the Americans playoff run
  17. Its why I would not trade him straight up for Hellebuck or really anyone. Great Vision, Great Focus, Great Agility, Solid positioning, great glove work Sucks we lost this game but we lost to a SC team.... If only we could of scored some more
  18. Some times you find lightning in a bottle. They roled the dice, and decided to think outside the box when they brought in Ralph. It was a desperate plan to shake things up and it back fired... But you can also give Pegula's a some kudos for not letting it fester for 2 full season or more. They cut bait relatively quickly Also Ralph gave way to Granato who showed more that enough to become the permanent HC. Which I'm happy with that at this junction. The Adams/Granato hire took a bold move by the Pegula's because if it didn't work ....... As for Owners not meddling? If I'm paying for a professional sports team I'm going to have input, especially if the guy making decisions at the GM level is not doing as well a I/we like. Now that Adams is showing his plan ia actually working I expect Pegula's to be more comfortable and not having to meddle
  19. 1st how did you feel about the Adams / Granato when that was announced.... All you could do is sit back and hope its wasn't more of the same. Ralph may have been hired as a manager in Europe for soccer clubs, but the fact is Ralph did have pedigree in the NHL and International hockey and many did feel he was given a raw deal in the NHL. It was a shot in the dark but don't forget to throw the GM under the bus for this hire as well, it wasn't all Pegula's. In fact Pegulas went through a similiar thing witht he Bills until they found the right GM/HC combo
