Mustache of God

This is so true. Being where we are in the standings pretty much every game we play is a "trap" game for opponents. We're in the dog days of the season and I believe teams see the Sabres in the basement and are thinking "this will be an easy win", and probably don't prepare as much as they should. Same thing applies for other basement teams. Coyotes are 6-4 in their last 10.

The only difference is that they have 3 cups to show for it.

I don't understand the logic behind that 3rd line but who am I to question it?

At least Okposo is back. Per hamilton lines look like: 67 - 90 - 23 21 - 28 - 13 20 - 22 - 29 17 - 10 - 25 Looking forward to see Baptiste on a scoring line. Him and Girgs should theoretically be able to dig in the corners and then find Okposo. Lehner in net.

Winning tonight would be a 3 game winning streak. This team seems to be incapable of those. I predict a loss.

There is less than 0% chance that Tavares will sign here. (IF) He's leaving Long Island because the organization is a mess and he wants to compete for a Stanley Cup, not join up a team whose restarting their 2nd rebuild after floundering in the basement of the standings for 1/2 of his career.

There was an understanding between Murray and Antipin that they'd sign him once his contract was up in the KHL and FA opened for the NHL. Murray did the legwork but Botteril pulled the trigger. If Jbots didn't want him then he would not have signed him, plain and simple.

It's not out of the realm of possibility for a team to turn it around in the off-season and that's the hope I need to cling to (because why else would I be here?). Before the team gets better JBOTs needs to get rid of at least 3 or 4 of the following players Moulson, Pommenville, Bogo, Larsson & Girgensons, the first three b/c of their contracts and the Larsson and Girgs because they've been here long enough for the suckitude to seep in deep and are unsalvagable on this team.

Glad to see Baptiste off the 4th line...hopefully he uses opportunity to shine. What is our #2 PP unit going to look like? Woof.

Because whoever needed capable left wingers? At this moment in time, what's our LW depth? How does it compare to the tank team? On a serious note, congrats to the Okposo family.

The prospect will be reporting to Rochester.

2019 pick becomes a first IF the Sharks win the cup as well...per botteril in his conference.

I dont know why i expected the team to do better. The Sabres got fleeced here.

the 2019 pick makes this completely underwhelming. This brings back nothing to the team for how many years? Woof.

Sorry, I'm reading the tweet on my phone, posting here from the computer....looks like it was deleted from the /r/hockey so it was probably fake. My bust.

I'm seeing a tweet saying "Lehner has made it known to management that he wants to be traded today" Gonna be real awkward when he finds out he's valueless.

Gionta has signed with the Bruins.

Coyotes shut out the ducks tonight. Only 1 point behi d the sabres.

You're at one of the natural wonders of the world. Put your phone away and enjoy it. I promise you're not missing anything Sabres related.

The defense was terrible on both of the goals but Lehner got burned so badly on both of them, they were misplayed just as bad on his part as the lack of effort from the defense. I decent goalie saves at least one of those. He's obviously not the only problem, certainly isn't the biggest problem on the team but I can't stand his attitude and can't wait until he's somewhere else.

He's trying to fill the void Moulson left.

That's a pretty harsh dig on pylons, man.

Because we want a 1st in return for Kane and they just used that up on Brassard. I suppose I should have said we're out on trading Kane to Pittsburgh.

Seems like Pittsburgh is out on Kane then.
