    I was still waiting for something to happen to the Sharks. But as always...the team just had nothing to give. I'm not even talking about a fight or being dirty. Maybe my military training gave me a different sense of "team" This team is just soooo easy to root against this season. 

    True. They make it hard

    When I watched that replay, one of my first reactions was "that kid's gotta learn to take better care of himself." I felt Hertl's play was cheap (not dirty - just cheap (two hands on the numbers and shoving a player towards the boards)), but I also felt that Quinn put himself in a vulnerable position.

    It was cheap. I was thinking about that as I watched the play unfold. 

    Jack just crumbled so he likely had his feet in a bad position at the time of the push which made it worse but still a cheap, unnecessary play imo.

    Shut him down for the year. No rush to bring him back the last two weeks of probably a dead season by that point. 

    Might as well. Bring up Kulich first and then Rosen for some games. 

    Dabble with one or two others to see what they can do.

    No Quinn update yet, eh? 

    green check for yes

    red x for no 

    Thumbs up for yes and it’s good news

    thumbs down for yes and it’s bad news

    Cup emoji for Quinn has been dealt for an even better player

    crying emoji for Quinn has been dealt for an even worse player

    vomit emoji if Quinn has lost his love of the game

    eye-roll for me wasting your time

  5. What about a President of Hockey Ops above Adams? 

    I think a person over Adams is exactly what the Sabres need right now. 

    Is there any executives out there with league connections to facilitate trades?

    Preferably someone outside the Sabres organization without connections to the Sabres player development system. 

    Would whoever comes in immediately trade every available asset and upset the apple cart? 

    Is this a retread position or is there room for new names? 

     

  6. Build or Sell!

    Idling in 25th place every year while players keep skating on thin ice, management keeps shopping in the scrap heap, the arena falls apart and the fan experience continues to get worse shouldn't be accepted by the league.

    Just a few years ago Terry was scolded and told to do better but is he?

    Are they really investing the money and resources to become a top tier franchise and compete for the Stanley Cup or are they doing just enough to say they're doing something? 

    Sell em at this point. ***** it.

    Maybe the new owner will have some balls.

    I hate to say it, but given what I’ve seen of Kulich so far in the A, his D game makes VO look like a Selke contender. He’s just not close to being ready for the show, imo. 

    Ryan Johnson got off to an uneven start in Rochester and was frowned upon as a call up early on, until he was called up and never left. 

    Kulich has work to do on D but it's time to see if he really has that NHL shot. Him and Rosen should get time on Quinns line w Peterka and Cozens  

  8. Ok so Jack Quinn has had another unfortunate injury that appears to be serious enough to keep him out for another portion of the season. 

    This sucks for JQ because he has been really good since he came back this season.

    Feel free to post any updates here. Let's hope he's back sooner than later.  

    The team is on break for All Star weekend and players won't be moved for a couple weeks so who replaces Quinn in the lineup if he cannot return by Feb 6th? 

    Tired: Olofsson, I'm tired of him. He's tired of Buffalo. 

    Wired: Kulich has wired alot of pucks with his buddy Rosen in their Rochester basement. 

    Bring him up and play him enough to get acclimated.
