Clifton had his foot kicked from under him on the first goal.

I think some players can't sharpen their skates so to speak, without live game action. I think the mistake was not using 3 preseason games to ice the full roster and shake the rust off.

I'm with you. Obviously some things to clean up and some players need to get things going but, I'd much rather be the Sabres than the Islanders.

No. Because we need defensive help and have 37 forwards ready to play

You're rolling in with "see I was right!" After 2 games of an 80 game season?

Don't tell anyone but the cbj actually have a ton of talent, it's just young like ours.

Lol, the Leafs played Montreal and Minnesota and next play Chicago. I'd love such an easy defensive matchup to open the season.

Going to bed. The panic mode and lack of perspective here isn't my vibe so have it.

That's not what you said though. Also you weren't talking about the future but the past. Granato has won a lot in many different, obviously he needs to win at the nhl level. That's like saying hockey is played with sticks, yea.

Some of you are in full on panic mode. Log off, sleep a little, wake up in the morning refreshed.

If this statement here is true, Adams needs to grow up. He's gonna have to trade friends and he needs to identify and remove dead weight.

Granato has won at every level he's coached so that's his pedigree. Can we not do this? Criticism is fine but don't flat out fling poo at the walls hoping it will stick.

Idk why any of you are calling the Greenway-Mitts-Benson line the 3rd line, it's not.

Idk what this means. That's not his current salary.

I'd start benching guys but Granato won't. Olofsson would sit and I'd toss Krebs there. Jost can sit between Zemgus and Okposo.

Owen Power isn't making 8 million dollars

Why is olofsson here?

His contract doesn't start until July 2024.

1st line did show up, Mitts and Greenway both scored and Benson assisted.

The offsides challenge is dumb no matter who does it.

60 pts in his prime seems low to me

Benson currently being credited with an assist on Mitts goal. That's 2 assists for Benson tonight.

Matthews with back to back hat tricks to open the season.

My good friend has seasons with his dad. Last year they missed 3 games and the rest either they were sitting in the seats or they have them to friends.
