    The Concept of Ehrhoff will be with you... always.

    Best UFA D available at the time.  TP loved playing with his shiny new toy.  The rest is history or a curse depending on your vantage point.

    Teravianen 

    Cam Talbot

    Take a wee chance on zboril  


     

    Can Benson go to the AHL? Isn’t he still CHL or NHL only?

    I think Benson is still NHL or CHL until 20.

    No, I'm 59 and have been a fan for 50 years this year. I'm familiar with the level of frustration, but in my opinion blowing up the team would be tragic. We're fine if we stay the course with significant tweaks along the way. Some people are tired of hearing about it, but we ARE the youngest team in the league and will get better as other teams age out a bit. It's an attempt to set us for long-term success, with a great cap situation. People need to settle down.

    I agree with everything you are saying here.  Until the last sentence.

    Telling people that are frustrated and venting to settle down is off putting in any situation.

    Countering their points the way you did is perfect, but I humbly suggest that you end it there.

    There is no doubt that was intentionally, late,  not needed...etc.  In a perfect world that should be 20+ games. Get THIS stuff out of the game, and you might be able to justfiy other physical play.

    20 games ??

    Send a real message.  Suspend for remainder of season and possible playoff.  Maybe next year too.  Maybe lifetime.  Yeah.  That's it - lifetime.

    Yous all heard me.

    Yep that was a bad off-season for sure   Remind me was it the Sabres decision to not sign Briere or Drury? I think they thought they would be able re-sign drury and let Briere walk  

    It was probably the off-season where this franchise became a joke.  Sure they were able to make the playoffs a couple of times after this but never really considered to be cup contenders  

    Just looked it up, Sabres have not won a playoff series since this off-season!!! Wow

  6. I think you may be on to something here.

    This is as reasonalbe a take as any other out there.

    What do you think cursed the Bills to lose every playoff game against the Chiefs.  Maybe Buffalo Bill was not the greatest dude ever ??

    Selanne had military obligations and regarding trade protection, players can't get that until they are 27 years old or played 7 seasons if I am not mistaken.

    When is Mitts an UFA?

    2 years after this season.  A 3 year contract buys only 1 UFA year.  2 takes him right to the gates of UFA.

    I would do 1 or 3(+), but I would prefer the + ... 7 or 8 years.

    There isn't much to figure out. Play hard and play a simpler and more basic game. Instead of trying to dazzle on offense by hanging on to the puck and dangling, just shoot the freaking puck. The Sabres have to be one of the worst team in the leagues in positioning players in front of the net to obstruct the goalie when we shoot. Our two best players in that tough area are Benson and Greenway.  It's not about outsmarting anyone. Just play tougher and harder throughout. 

    Ummm, thanks, but I was thinking that they have a few days to figure out the way to San Jose ...

    The scary thing is wont Matt Ellis be our interim HC? My god I don't know if I could stand to look at that smug face destroying our young prospects while we wait for something better. The thought is scary! LOL

    If they fire Granato in season I think they will name his permanent successor at that time in the hopes to save the playoff.  We have to take a look at who is available now.

    I really don't think they will fire him in season at this point.

    Only 9 points from 8th and picking 6th in the draft. Hoping Ottawa  and Columbus can get a win streak going soon. Maybe we can draft someone like Power again 😐

    That's the spirit. my friend.  Yea team !!

    Anyhow, we still love you.

    *****

    Again !!??  And so soon.

    MUST WIN !!

    GO SABRES !!

    They probably are staying in the same hotel for a few nights until they figure out the way to San Jose.  

    That may be a good thing.

    Any of our Southern Californians going / went to the games.  I did not read the GDT past page 3.

    I know @pi2000 has ties to the Ducks, or maybe he is making that all up to impress the chickidoodles around here.

    Oh, yeah ...

    SWORDS !!
