Weave

Roll all 3 in a rotation.

He’s bot afraid of pulling the trigger. He hasn’t prioritized winning yet.

Agreed. I don’t see Asplund providing anything that needs replacing with Tuch’s absence. Hino at least can play at the pace this offense prefers, and doesn’t have rocks for hands.

I think what Tage will miss most with Tuch out of the lineup is the board work and puck hounding Tuch is so good at. Seems to me that KO is best equipped to replace it. Problem is, KO isn’t keeping up with that line so it won’t be first guy in that’s best at puck retrieval. Once they’ve established in the zone, KO should be fine though.

He’s an NHL level player. The others? Who knows? I say Vinnie is more likely to help than one if the kids. Its trying to win, but it isn’t a big try.

My questionable source for streamed sabres games had better be reliable tonight….

Sabres see Rienhart at C for the bad guys tonight? We got this.

Yonkers Reading Club?

We need to celebrate on the lake when the water softens a bit.

Times like these I wish we had a Gudas on our roster.

It would be awesome if they had more than two players on the team that know what playoff level hockey looks like.

PromoTheRobot does not approve of this message.

I don’t agree with the characterization that KA is “who cares”, but I do agree that we may be looking at a missed opportunity. Player development occurs in the playoffs too. And as Ive said multiple times recently, the future is not guaranteed. The only known is now.

TIL

I don’t know how you can assume it away so readily when we’ve already had an organized, planned storming of the Capital by these folks. Edit, I’m not suggesting secession is likely. I’m suggesting that suggesting secession is likely to inspire violence.

But it’s more dangerous as it implies secession. Plays well in the militia crowd.

Don’t apologize. Sports is meant to be emotional. Why care if someone doesn’t share your emotional ride? If they can’t take your demonstrations of fanaticism, that’s their problem.

Why in the hell wpuld you expect the team to share their plan with you? Those are usually well kept secrets.

I’m still not convinced I was ever wrong. 😁 Although I am still not convinced he’s the type of player we need to be successful, Mitts has turned into a serviceable NHLer. Thats more than I expected. Dahlin developed defensive game, so he’s not the Housley clone I feared we drafted 1st overall.

Deep breaths. The smarter and dumber portions of society have been able to do it successfully for thousands of years. You guys will be fine.

The wins against Ana and SJ aren’t illusions, they are borders. We are definitely above those teams. Toronto is the other border. We are definitely underneath Toronto. This is a middle 3rd of the league team. Almost certainly shading towards median or a touch below. The question is, what changes need to be made to push it towards the upper 3rd?

What is the cost of not bringing in vets to show them how?

Repeated for your pleasure…… We won’t know until the organization’s actual expectation is to win.
