    Yeah, I always had too (and still loosely do), but technically it seems that's incorrect.  Like I said, "western New York State" and "Western New York" are two different things.  We certainly are in the western 1/3 (1/4?) of the state, so it's hard to argue with the former as a characterization of where we live.

    Syracuse is considered central NY, so in my opinion anything west of Syracuse is western NY. Rochester is definitely not central NY. Even if they want to consider Rochester part of "Finger Lakes" region it is still west of Syracuse and west of central NY. Almost seems like a new way of separating two cities, Buffalo/Rochester and giving them their own geographical  area.

  2. Nothing against Borgen but if he was that good he would have more than 14 NHL games under his belt by now, he's going to be 25 in Dec. This team has been pathetic for a long time and he has not been able to beat out some of the pathetic dmen the Sabres have rolled out there to get more than 14 games. Yeah, i'll take Risto all day every day.

  3. IMO, Jack is a great player and a not so good captain. Nothing I've seen anywhere ever suggested he is/was a leader of men. I said it at the time it was a mistake not naming OReilly captain.

     

    Can't solely blame ownership for the problems, players and certainly the captain are culpable in this shitshow as they are the two common denominators in this mess.

     

    Get fair value for him and move on, have't won with him.

    My dude Linus has been a pretty good goalie.  However, he has never even started more than 34 games in a season.  Would you like to make him one of the top 10 paid goalies in the league?  What kind of contract do you think he can get?

    Played in 111 NHL games, started 106 and gotten better each year 27 years old

    46-46-13 record

    .912 save %

    2.78 GAA

    On some horrible teams with horrible coaches. Someone is going to give him big $$$ and they will be rewarded for it, Linus is good. 

     

  5. I don't blame him for leaving, this inept organization tests even the best mentally fit guys. Linus is a good guy good player, he's been good here on bad teams, imagine how good he would be on a good team with a good coach! League leading numbers possibly, who could blame him if he wanted to leave, yet some want to retain him on the cheap, no way, this guy is a good goalie. 

  6. IMO, Eichel doesn't seem to be captain material at the NHL level. Great talent, yes, leader, sure doesn't seem like it.

     

    Neck injury, sure, I seen when he got his neck folded up, looked painful, but the broken rib, was what over 4 months ago, not buying that excuse anymore.

     

    Just hope he comes back and plays at the level he did last year.

  7. Forget the coaches for a second, name me a FA player who would willing want to come play for this organization, bet ya can't. That said GMKA job becomes twice, three times as hard knowing he has to attempt to trade for players with hopes they waive their NTC. Good luck GMKA!

     

    TPegs current actions are setting this team back years on top of the already ***** show it was. Unbelievable!

  8. How about this one, McDavid and Draisaitl have combined for 25 goals and 54 assists and 81 points whereas all 15 Sabre forwards have a combined for 40 goals and 63 assists and 103 points. 

     

    Ralph can't be shown the door fast enough, come on Adams do your job!
