Phew a win. Let's use that to start a roll

So many posts this season

Dahlin is looking much better this game

I'm with Tom. I'm confident in a month this post will be long and forgotten (no offence GA). This team is in a fine and tidy place

I feel bad for jets fans

I think the Sabres will finish in the 2nd or 3rd spot in the division when all is said and done. I have watched all the loses, and have enjoyed the games anyway - this is a team that competes and passes the eye test. We have hit about 7 posts across these few games. That's insanely unlucky. People are losing their mind for no reason - just as I was worried when we started last season winning because I didn't think the team was as good as the standings showed, I am equally not worried about this team this year. Jack and especially Dahlin need to find another level, but we can easily gain some lost ground this year as every game we win takes points from other teams

Nor was that shot

Ok. I'll watch the Sabres. I haven't seen the Bills play this season, so i'll be sure not to watch in case its me

Against the two teams most likely to go 1-2 in the division after having not played in 10 months. Not to mention we outplayed / stayed with the opposition in all 5 of those games.

I also watched... Which one of us should miss next game to work out who is cursed?

Yeah let's get our 19th coach in since Eichel joined. That will definitely help...

That's like his 5th post this season

That's a ***** penalty call

Don't talk about the Sabres' leading goal scorer like that

The PP needs to be more dynamic. They just stand still and cycle the puck. Perimeter play and waiting for the perfect pass / shot is not inherently bad, but you need people moving to create space. You can't just stand there

I think Dahlin needs more mental resilience. I think one or two bad plays get in his head and he then plays worse for the rest of the game

Cozens impresses me. He still looks green and a little bit gangly and weak. But he is very noticeable in a good way - always in a nice location and never afraid to battle for the puck

Exact same for me!

This feels like either a shutout or a rout for Ulmark, given his personal life

If players get COVID because they broke the rules, should the game be postponed? Seems like they should have to play taxi squad players, personally

I enjoy Risto on this team. Warts and all.

Team looks alright huh. Panic paused for now

We went 8-2 in our opening ten last year. I'm not sure how you start a season has a ton of bearing on how you finish. I remember a recent champion team was last in the league at one point before winning it all that season.

lol the way people lose their mind - we are two games into a season and in one of those games we dominated but still lost. We could easily be at 1-1, or even 2-0. No need for panic yet. I agree the Skinner stuff is a bit odd. But also remember it is as much building for the future as it is now. Maybe Dahlin and Mountour aren't great together. However, both are playing poorly individually with basic hockey. That will skew the stats. And maybe in 10 games they are a dominant force on the ice, such that for 46 games its worth the 10 of pain

If we end up with the second best defenceman to ever play the game, I don't think we should consider it a consolation prize 😛
