Just to be fair. Currently the Sabres start every game with a 4th line

Great video. I now go and look who wears 91 at the Amerks. Man in that fight he destroyed a man who looked as gigantic as Scott. I am back "The force is strong in him, just like in his father" Monsieur Roy, what a crazy bastard. But I like him :D

Yeah he made a mistake, but i would not throw him out with the trash for now. It is a not so an easy situation Pat and Tim needs to handle, but they will find a proper solution and maybe can talk some sense into him.

Thanks, I still will be in Germany but i most probably won't be able to visit the world cup games in Den Haag. I think i am with dudacek on this. On the other hand i was wrong with regard to FES ( Foligno, Ennis, Stafford) before. Time will tell if they can be more constant.

You are right i was not precise there. Of course the gm did not trade or sign the right players. The Ott trade was a good one, the Hodgson trade too, the Gaustad trade too, but he was not able to finalize the picture by adding one or two more center(pieces). Regiers biggest mistake was the decision for Rolston and to fire Ruff way too late. This he totally mishandled. With Vanek and Pommers we always only had one scoring line. Now we have not a good one(Gem is great but not a first line) but get good support from our bottom nine. They score not to many goals but the opponent can't score too much either. A hot first line with Vanek Pommer Hodgson/ Grabovski with Gem( of course we would not have Moulson without Vanek trade), the best 6 of our current bottom nine with the current good D and excellent goaltending would be a team which in my oppinion could go deep. Of course Chicago, Boston or St. Louis would still be the better team, but in a 7 game series everything can happen. A playoff team which goes deep once is an excellent basis to build a cup contender. But there would not be a guarantee. Can you follow me? Of course you don't have to agree but i am happy if you understand the logic of my post ( from a non natural speaker)

A player like Kessel would be a fine core piece. I would love to have those good wingers again. We would not be so far away from a good playoff team. Not the players were the main issue but the gm and coach. This we learned ( ok we knew that for long) the hard tour. Pommers and Vanek with a coach Nolan would have worked. Ok this is bygones now. I believe you have to build around the stars you have. If these are wingers you build around them. Centers would be better but the Malkin and Crosbys are not growing on trees.

This thread is now 2 years and 2 weeks old. He is still not gone and will not be gone for a while. Maybe we resign him at a proper price. I do not like it, but Stafford is really resistent to our wish to show him the door.

Wow, i love the movie, but to see it in reality is awesome. Thanks for sharing

I may have not seen this video but i seached on youtube for video i could see. WOW he has hands! He should play with Moulson and Ennis. I am so excited

The question is: Will Ovi score more goals than the complete Sabres team? :)

9 points in 14 games. It seems that Vanek is not so much better while playing with Tavares. Good for us we traded him for good value. It will be interesting how much the Isles get for him.

The Thornton assault is inacceptable and gut less. To jump on a player from behind/ side and then knock him out whilelying defenseless on the ground is shameless backdoor alley style where a thug knife down his victim. This must be 20 games, but the Boston bonus will lead to delucas suggestion. The hit on Marchand was also gutless ( although particullar Marchand earned it somehow). I am not sure about the Orpik hit yet. He did not need his elbow to balance after the hit like Scott, but i looked evil. Erikson is really unlucky. And while Seguin dominates in Dallas, Boston will complain about the trade, because currently it seems to be they lost this trade by a large margin.

Super, das freut mich zu lesen. Deutsch zu lernen ist eher selten in Amerika oder? Ok back to english :)

Stimmt! Hast du deutsche Wurzeln? Do you have German relationship?

The father of Leon Draisaitl, Peter Draisaitl, was a very good player for my favorite German hockey team Adler Mannheim (Jochens home team as well). You pronounce the name as you read it. In English more like dreyeseyetl. ai in German = eye in English. I hope this helps. I would really like him on our team.

LaLaLaFontaine!! Ohhh boy a dream comes true. As GM my tip is Smith. Pat followed him after Wang fired him.

I totally agree. To ease the pain the Sabres are causing this season i watch the highlights from Minnesota and see our ex captain burning due to his hotness scoring goal after goal. Am i bitter that he was traded? No. But i still have some kind of bound with him, like i have withVanek.

Darc won't trade him. He has the hope that Staford find his game again and can be traded for a good price

They won't make it easy to claim the number one ticket in the lottery. What i have seen from them is nearly as bad as the Buffalo perfomances of this year. I think we will overtake one or two of them.

I think in the last quarter of the season we make a run to take spot nr. 29 from the Flyers.

I am sad because i really loved TV. He could have been a legend in 6-8 years with a lot of Sabres related records. But on the other hand he did not want to stay for a rebuild. So Moulson a first and a second it is then. Maybe we are lucky and Moulson playing style fits somehow, hopefully he has the right mindset and is a worker kind of player. Many of his goals are dirty goals so this maybe a sign for that. When he has some chemistry and plays well, i am open to resign him or to trade him elsewhere. If not just trade him away on the deadline.

Interesting. Is something happening?

If this happens this will be sad. Hockey needs artists. Of course we also need hard checks and fights ( I love fights). But to send goons against super stars because the scored an awesome goal is crazy.

Hertls goal was simply awesome! The whole league should tap their hats to this expression of talent instead of bitching around like Oates. This is hockey in one of his purest forms, the artist side of the coolest game on earth.
