Two or less

Did anybody else receive the email from the Sabres asking a bunch of questions about the broadcasts on MSG? Looks like all Sabres insider members got an email. It seems as if they are in the process of making changes to the broadcasts and are looking for input from the fans. Which is cool because i've always felt the broadcasts were a bit weak.

I don't buy into this at all, but the schedule for the Sabres is very strange. We played Tampa four time in the first 15 games, played Dallas home/away in the same week, same with St Louis. A few other bizarre things come up too, but i don't think the league was after us. Im sure it was tough for those teams as well.

Sure, it wasn't the perfect situation for him, but there was a lot of of flaws from his side as well. Inability to improve skating and his poor attitude didn't help at all.

Elliott Friedman just said on HNIC that Robin Lehner has a high ankle sprain and will be out months. He also said, it is expected the Sabres will go with Chad Johnson and also will give Linus Ullmark a chance, who got cleared today and is starting in Rochester tonight.

Mark Pysyk.

Havn't been this excited for a Sabres game in a very long time. After cheering for the team to lose to better themselves, it just feels so good to actually go with some kind of expectations and the "tank" being over. Can't wait to chant Lets Go Buffalo tonight! That said, i think our defense will give us some problems and i think Lehner will show some rust, but Sabres come out on top. 5-3 Sabres!

11pm on a Monday seems pretty awesome to me! Cant wait!

Works for me as well.

Was just wondering, if there was anyway of us moving the Gold draft a little later at night? It's currently set for 7:30pm. Even moving it to 8pm would be a huge help. I'm a season tix holder for the Bills and i usually arrive back in Rochester around 730. If not, no biggy.

Back in the Gold division. Thanks.

Are tickets general admission?

You might be thinking of the wrong guy? Kevin de Bruyne is not a CF. He plays primary on the wing and CAM. Last season for Wolfsburg, he played mostly CAM but did play a few times RM or LM. Thats where he is mostly used on Belgium NT. They will NOT ever use him as a CDM, as he plays zero defense. He is a horrific defender and if he loses the ball he checks out of the play. That will be the big question about him in England. With Wolfsburg, his defensive liability only really effected him vs. Bayern Munich but it was okay as Bayern was always expected to beat them. In the PL, there are several teams and he can get exposed fairly quickly. I am not sure he can be successful for a club such as Man City but i guess we will find out.

Same. Small example size but his advanced stats are pretty solid. Essp for a guy who was just starting his NHL career. I feel good about Pysyk being a top contributor for the Sabres and having a solid season as early as next season.

Class of 2005 here.... holla!! Man, time flies when you're having fun. The best web site i've been part of. Thanks for all you've done, SS! Cheers

As long as theres no long term, i wouldn't give either of those two guys more then two years, then who really cares about the money? If Oduya is their top target, offer him $5mil per for 2 seasons and let's go.

This pick interests me because from the angle of thinking he was picked from by the Sabres. I also know nothing about him. But he's 20 years old and according to Greg Joyce, he's going to UMass-Amherst for probably only 2 years and then turning pro. The Sabres felt, in 2 years, he would of been one of the most coveted college UFA's, so they decided to just take the risk and draft him now. Joyce believes Chukarov wanted to go undrafted so in 2 years he would of been able to pick and choose. But Sabres liked the potential too much. That's outside the box thinking, and i like it for a selection in the 7th round.

I've never been the biggest Weber fan but i feel like he's gotten better. He's played over 300 NHL games in his career and I would like to see what he can do with a defensive coach such as Terry Murray and also Dan Bylsma before counting him out. I feel like he may be a guy Bylsma likes to use.

Pegula Day is when dreams and hopes became a reality.

I wish WGR or one of the news stations could grab a Sabres player, whose been here for much of the "suffering" such as Ennis or Weber and ask them what they are feeling now. The fans are thrilled. We embraced the tank and it's coming full circle but i have to think that guys like Ennis, Weber and even to a lesser extend Moulson gotta be thinking they're on cloud 9 right now.

I'd love to see Sekera back here. I thought he played well under Lindy Ruff, but he really excelled in Carolina and Los Angeles.

Where did Mike Weber go?

The Sabres are not trading away assets for a quick run. They are not going out and getting guys like Patrick Sharp or Eric Staal. They are getting guys who are young and can grow together for the foreseeable future. Also, the Sabres have 11 draft picks in the 2016 draft. They can move a few of those and move up and get guys they really want. We're heavily focused on scouting and drafting, so we just have to hope they find some gems along the way. They have a ton of picks still coming. Two second round picks in 2017 as well.

Im not a fan of where you placed some of the guys, such as Dupuy above Cornel? Also, wheres Will Borgen?

WOW!!!!! WHat a day.

Bruins trade Dougie Hamilton to Calgary. Waiting on what goes back to Boston. But wow
