CallawaySabres

Wow, straight to my favorite player of all time....Reminds me of Jason Voorhees with the stare-down

Well I got my wish, back to line 2 for the Latvian Locomotive.....

Maybe I am off base here but is it wrong to think the Girgs belongs on the 2nd line where he could open up the scoring? I see him as a staple on the 2nd line power wing spot.

I believe so too. I see GIRGenson as a 1st or 2nd line power wing, and a very good one at that. I was hoping GRIGorenko might shape into a 2nd line Center (but that is a total crap shoot at this point)

The way I see it is that there is no way in Hell the Sabres draft after the 4 spot and the top 4 consist of 3 Centers and a can't miss Dman. Edmonton will take the D which means Sabres are in line for a top C no matter what. Let's pray for Grigs to be at least a 2nd line Center someday and we will be looking at '14 draft C, Hodgson and Grigs. Things are stating to look up in my book as the D is going to be just fine. Signing Miller is an absolute must for me though....

Love it, and so true

If this kid can't suck it up for 2 months until he hits Rochester, then I have my answer....

Toronto has Kadri in play but I don't see much much need for him here. He seems very much like Hodgson with not much defensive play to help his game. We still need that number one center (maybe the draft)?

We can't be asking whether Stafford has been playing better, we have to be asking if he is part of the rebuild that puts this team into contender status. Bye bye Drew......

Yeah, Buffalo would really hate to have this guy right now - God I hate Darcy more and more every single day.. http://prohockeytalk.nbcsports.com/2013/12/20/jaromir-jagr-cant-help-but-rave-about-stars-rookie-nichushkin/

indeed it is, but if you want my one talent evaluation of the game, EJ is garbage. It sucks but i believe it to be true and if this organization is smart, they will pick up another 1 in round 1 or 2 of next year's draft.

it is senseless trying to evaluate this game as the entire team packed it in and shut down the season the second that field goal went through in Toronto

Looong way to go but I am starting to like my Cup match-up

I honestly won't even let myself picture this kid on the Sabres because you know, you just KNOW it's not gonna happen right?

So it looks like we are guaranteed a top line Center which should make the 25% chance at number 1 a little less stressful. Are Reinhardt and Draisaitl projected as top line Centers or do they peak at the 2nd line?

That is ALL he should care about because money is not an issue. Giving away a home game...what a joke. And as far as the playoffs, a win yesterday and that is ALL this city talks about for another week. EVERY SINGLE team that Buffalo needed to lose over the last 2 weeks lost and STILL, this team chokes it away.

This team can ill afford to create more holes. The solution is to find a true #1 receiver and Stevie will thrive in the #2 role. Nobody is in a worse mood than me over this loss but let's not cut some of our best players because of it. 14-0 lead against a 2-9 team and they can't close the deal?! This team has way more problems on defense than people may realize and THAT is what is most disturbing about this team. Draft the top LB, WR or TE and hopefully some issues go away. I hope those millions Ralph gets with games being in Toronto was worth it as the playoffs die on the vine at a neutral field.

I would like to poll Obama's family to see what his approval rating is......

As a season ticket holder, It WILL be a party for me. You know that CRAP effort that we have been seeing from the veterans for the past few years, it's over. Screw wins and losses right now, couldn't care less. The effort will be back and that, THAT is all I can ask for right now. From Nolan - “I was watching every time Jordan was on the ice, so I was watching as a father and as an evaluator. I wasn’t really too impressed with the game to tell you the truth, it wasn’t a very exciting game. I watched too many of those non exciting games. People spend a lot of hard earned money to come down and watch and the least we could do is entertain them and give an impassioned effort.” Bring it Biitches!

Ro-Yal Blue! Ro-Yal Blue! Ro-Yal Blue!

I think I have tears in my eyes and I have no idea what to think. The Change is enough for me now because lack of emotion for this team has been killing me. I am on board with ANYTHING other than the crap that has been running this team

I CANNOT believe Nolan is Head Coach - Holy ShiitBalls!

Time to bust out my #16 jersey

We better get used to silver linings around here so here is one about there being no consensus #1 guy - You know with our luck, we would not get the first pick with the worst record. That 25% won't be good enough and so when we pick 2nd, it won't be heartbreaking knowing that we did not lose a legit superstar.
