    Our smallest player is who Skinner?   He has more sandpaper in his game than the rest of them.  

    Larry can get angry, Kyle and Zemgus can follow suit but they have all been pretty silent during this losing streak. 

    We are not the only team in this boat, our talent is s-l-o-w-l-y improving but it looks like right now we are building a one round playoff team.  

    The smallest guy is Sheary but yes Skinner has some sandpaper in his game but not nearly enough.

    Maybe I'm nuts, but I didn't think it was as bad as the score indicated. The Sabres had a ton of chances in the 1st, and 30 shots on the game, but they just couldn't put any of them home. It didn't seem like they were "on their heels" at any point. They just played atrocious defense for a grand total of about 40 seconds, and the Caps took full advantage of every little lapse. 

    Yeah kind of, I think Holtby played great last night but I thought it was fairly even, I mean Wash is better but Holtby was great lat night.

    Another win is a good thing... Sharks brought it and Sabres responded.  Shark goals were tough, double triple deflection and Girgenson losing sight of Carlson... still Sabres hung in there and controlled OT.  Sabres need another physical forward with some skill but team is playing as a team.  Cozens and TT next  year should be able to fill in those gaps.  Still hope Sabres can find a trade partner for a 2C with all the extra D.

    Johansson doesn't fit the bill? He's not good enough?

    Yup and Housley had ***** inputs because he ignored outputs he had access too. Sometimes people from outside can see the problems where as those in the midst of it don't. 

    Man, I didn't know being an NHL head coach was so easy, I think you should apply. You sound like a perfect fit, seeing as you know everything and all!

    It’s still too many minutes. The book on Risto is he gets worse as the season goes on. He’s looked fine, totally agree, but he has early on in the past, too. They’ll need to cut his minutes. 

    I think he gets worse as the season goes on simply because he seen the prior coaches as a joke and the team wasn't going anywhere so he was the first guy to check out and go rogue and not give a damn. Hopefully RKs coaching is good and Risto stays mentally involved all year.

  6. With the current status of the Sabres could Skinner be waiting to see who is hired as coach before he signs here or elects FA? 

    Did he not sign earlier in the year because he wasn't a Housley fan?

    Whatever the case, hope he signs here.
