  1. That's one ugly line, unless your confident in the sabres, which I am not..... 4 days off with some rolston teaching and I still say we only get 18 SOG.

     

    At 1700

     

    I'll go light and put 175 on Boston this evening

     

     

    Alright, that first one put me at $1400. I'll bet $1300 on the Sabres for tonight.

     

    Wow, what a gritty call, good luck

  2. Terrible play calling with 2 minutes in the half.... Kill 20 seconds and give them 3 timeouts and all the time in the world..... Oh and let's put the guy with the giant club on against their fastest receiver in that situation..... Not to mention Zero pressure at all...... Frustrating

  3. And here is where we start looking like the typical bills.... We never go for the throat when we have the chance.

     

    All this talk about the terrible o line for Miami and no rushing game, and they look just fine.... Let's hope we stop this momentum swing

    Well said. I'm just what sounds a little bit older than you, but I'm in complete agreement. The current franchise has become one of the worst in hockey. I, as did many others, had such high hopes/expectations when Pegula bought the Sabres. It seemed as if Buffalo was on the brink of achieving things it had never done before. But where have the high hopes/expectations gone? Down the gutter pretty much sums it up. When Darcy said the franchise would go through a period of suffering, I took it as if he was meaning the Sabres would be a borderline playoff team each year w/ slow growth towards to a true Cup contender. Obviously I was a bit too optimistic when Darcy spoke of suffering. It's difficult to be entertained by this years team. Coaches/players more or less are going through the motions. Sad, sad time for the Sabres franchise.

     

    I'm right near the 30 Y/O mark so relatively young, I agree with ya, when I heard suffering, I did not expect them to match the franchise record for worst starting record and be the worst in the league with possession and goals for.

     

    I did expect growing pains, and as much as a top pick sounds wonderful, I thought we'd see a different product.I just wish there was more effort, it's hard to say why this team is playing so lackluster.... Idk if its because management came out and said "hey guys were gonna suck" or if the confidence in the talent we have is so low that we being ultra conservative in our game planning, or if we just have player personalities that aren't cohesive to a gritty winning team..... I'm sure there is a combination of all three in there.

     

    I usually make it a point to watch or at least DVR every game and watch later, but this year I have found I just don't have it in me to make the extra effort to watch every game like I have in the past, tonight I'm going to a birthday dinner and will not be recording the avalanche game.... I'll follow the board to see what's happening but this team needs to show something soon before fans start losing interest.

  5. I'm fairly young still in terms of following the sabres.... I can remember about 20 years of hockey from childhood til now, and I can honestly say this is the absolute worst team I've seen ever.... I don't have the care or time to look up stats to see if mathematically we will be the worst. And at some point this negativity will even out somewhat, but I cannot remember a team duller, lifeless, heartless and just awful as I'm seeing this year... We have no game plan, no grit, no scoring, worst passing in the league, no PP and no excitement to be seen anywhere. Even the coach is an automaton just like our GM. I wonder how long before fans start making half empty buildings appear?

  6. Its amazing how injuries affect the bills every freaking year.... Idk if conditioning is an issue or if it's just terrible luck, but honestly.... Starting QB, both running backs, basically our whole secondary, 2 first string WR.... A kicker, and the list goes on and on. I know injuries are a part of the game and every team has them, but we seem to be ravaged by them to the point where outcomes of games are affected.

     

    I didn't see the bills being a playoff team this year, but I honestly feel that If we were remotely healthy then we'd be at least a. 500 team, maybe even 4-2 right now.

     

    Changes are happening and although statistically we aren't lighting it up, this team at least makes most games exciting, unlike our other sports team.... Finally a rebuild the way it should be done, just somehow need to find a way to stay healthier
