  1. We would much rather be a mediocre team with literally no chance of winning the cup, but we will fight tooth an nail for the 8th and final playoff spot.
  2. if you think they are tanking, how would you explain Eakin and Irwin in the Press Box?
  3. I used to be a huge tank guy and I want to see them win, I’m skeptical that’s there are many that want to see them lose
  4. Some Clarke love from Cam Robinson of Elite Prospects ”I’m not sure we can even have the debate anymore. Brandt Clarke is clearly the highest IQ defender in this crop. If he can tidy up the stride to add more pop from a stop then the upside will be the highest as well.” RHD I should add! So rank I’ll rank him above all the LHD on my “hope the Sabres draft” list
  5. Is there even one fan out there cheering from them to lose? The reality of the situation is that they can improve and even win a few games, while still finishing at the bottom. No harm in hoping the Devils and Ducks win a few games too.
  6. Yes if it gets close and they want to ensure they don’t move higher than 30th... 2nd best odds. They can always play the Hutton card
  7. Big save and big favour by former Sabres Tennyson with about 2 mins left in game
  8. Can we trade this guy already? Need more guys who play the “right” way!!
  9. 6 weeks ago we would be doing cartwheels over this, now I’m really going to miss watching them
  10. Samson on pace for 37 goals over an 82 game season. Don’t let anyone trivialize him as just a 20 goal scorer.
  11. The Zibanejab line killed them Otherwise the the Sabres were the better team statistically Actually , 5 on 5 the Sabres actually had a better XGF.
  12. If NY was smart they’d take another penalty and make the Sabres play 6-3 again
  13. unless McCabe signs for 1 year, Time to move on IMHO
  14. Brutal penalty to take
  15. If you ranked the goalies that have played in games involving the Sabres this year would it be unreasonable to think the the bottom 3 would be Tokaraski, Johansson and Hutton?
  16. Though I’m probably overthinking it. even at 5, one of Beniers, Guenther or Eklund will probably still be on the board
  17. Sabres already have a franchise LHD. That’s my only concern
  18. I’m probably over thinking it but I hate the thought of another LHD. Dahlin, Samsuelsson, Bryson and Johnson makes me think they are set for a long, long time
  19. If Sabres end up drafting 5 and the first 4 off the board are Beniers, Guenther, Eklund and Powers. are you taking Hughes ?
  20. Once the Sabres pass the devils and ducks in the standings, there will be a 70% chance they draft 5th or 6th
  21. Don’t think he should be judged at all. He probably won’t be their #1 goalie until the 22/23 season at earliest
  22. I don't think anyone should slam Murray for Reinhart over Draisaitl - there was no telling that Draisaitl would turn into one of the top players in the league at that time. Im thinking you can't find one GM in the league where you can't say " he shoulda taken that guy" Its the nature of the draft, especially when you are drafting 18 year olds. Even with Quinn, its way too early to say "he shoulda taken Rossi". Battle of the Dylans Good strength and awareness by the younger Dylan
  23. I think Adams would need to worry about the fans reaction over fellow GM's. Though I doubt he worries about either
  24. Love that all 3 of the top forwards are known for their work rate. Still like the Size of Beniers and Guenther over Eklund considering the Sabres current roster composition. That .being said, Eklund seems to bring both skill and feisty play.
