Sprong?

Just throw a towel out on the ice

Well, to be fair, he was insane, drunk and half out of control during those days. 😂 i thought Neurirth and Enroth (or whatever his name was) were really good goalies while the team sucked, This team is now shot, but you have to upgrade goaltending first is all I think. Don’t even bother fixing anything else if Hutton is your goalie, you will lose most nights

How does Skinner not shoot, that’s like the only thing he gets paid to do

Hutton shouldn’t even be in the league, he is just awful

Yes, two out of three goals were beyond brutal.

Feel sorry for Hutton? Why, cause he couldn’t stopa beach ball?

Wow, just wow.

RJ has a guy crush on Hutton? 💜

Not check, but obstruct him at least

...

Don’t play the puck, play the body!

Good hockey game so far

https://buffalonews.com/sports/sabres/travis-yosts-sabre-metrics-islanders-might-present-intriguing-options-to-improve-sabres/article_ce790c6e-8584-11eb-ad1a-b75f1feaf9b1.html#tracking-source=home-top-story-1 Travis Yost with an idea So how can the Sabres make a pitch? Submit offer sheets to Pelech and Varlamov at the same time. Since the Sabres own all their 2022 NHL draft picks, they can sign both players into different compensation ranges without violating the collective bargaining agreement (10.4). Assuming the offer sheet compensation will mirror what it did last summer, it might look something like this: The Sabres could offer Pelech a multiyear contract up to $4.3 million annually, and simultaneously offer Sorokin a multiyear contract up to $6.5 million annually. The point is to squeeze the outer limits of the compensation range and force a team like the Islanders to consider declining to match the offer sheet. To that end, it’s not a question of whether the Islanders love a player like Sorokin – they do. The question is whether they love him enough to decline a future first- and third-round pick, and avoid paying that same goaltender $6 million annually. Depending on how bullish you are on Sorokin, even a high-end offer now could be on the low end of his true talent in the long term. But it would force the Islanders to consider their cap strategy and the opportunity costs that would come with matching multiple offer sheets. (In this case, they could tie up in excess of $10 million in just two players.) Alternatively, you can easily see a scenario in which the Islanders match a high-end offer for Sorokin and decline to meet the midrange offer for Pelech. Either way, the Sabres end the day with more talent, not less. Offer sheets have become beta noire in the NHL, but I’ve always attributed that to how punitive the top end of the compensation range is, as well as the ability for general managers to engineer side trades in lieu of tendering. I expect that to continue. But if there was ever a time for teams to get creative in a multiyear flat-cap era, this is it.

Oh no, I thought we got an extra day off from this...🥺 Oh well...Go Sabres

I totally agree with what you are saying. The challenges facing this team have been huge, throw in Jacks injury , Skinner not producing at all and the team would faced an uphill battle. But toss horrible goaltending—-last night excluded—in and you are in dumpster fire 🔥 status. Better goaltending could have given them some breathing space to gel and improve. Teams need to build chemistry, but if you lose every night that makes it hard.

Ullmark will be interesting to see. Good player but injured a lot. 3 yrs x 4 mill a season But they also need to add another or two goalies The defense will be interesting. If we get Powers or another of the top D-men in draft, do they play immediately? Risto, Dahlin, Bryson, Borgen, Joki, McCabe? and ? Hopefully a healthy Jack leads a resurgence of offensive, but they should try and find help in free agency. Is it too early to get out of Skinners contract in a way to save cap space?

Davidson is a big talker out there

Montour

Big Tage is playing well. Casey kinda quiet tonight

Hutton!!!

Is it RK adding toughness to line up?

Tage as third line, Bobby Smith type, checking center?

Davidson better be better
