[Jbot so far?]

He's not that good anymore. The only reason half of us are excited about him is because taking him on allowed us to ditch the anchor that is Tyler Ennis. Pominville can pull his own weight but he's not a miracle worker. There's still too much dead weight on the roster.

Still think he can play some solid minutes for us and get maybe 40-45 points.

It appears that Jack may not be the ambassador the Sabres need

Unless you're from the area, Buffalo's reputation is pretty darn poor

Sabres recent history is pretty darn poor also

An educated hockey player is not going to sign here unless you overpay

He's going to get an ELC so his dream team or city has the edge in this

He is gone although I hope I'm wrong, even if he's not as good as advertised by some, he'd be an improvement in depth that this team sorely needs.

Yea, I don't think it looks good for him signing with us either. We need to start winning to recruit/keep these guys. Winning can cure a lot

I don't think I have ever seen a center push his qb. Especially being up 4 touchdows, wow.

 

Well that's it proud of my team, I'm ready for some Sabres hockey!

I don't know if I was blinded by ND homerism, or my complete and utter disdain for Nick Saban, but I never saw anything like this happening. This is awful. And that sound you hear? That was Te'o dropping to the mid-late 1st round. Not saying he should based on one game, but I can't see him going top-10 now.

 

 

 

Solace is that nobody expected them to even get to this point. Hopefully they can build on this season going forward.

 

It will be tough losing the heart and soul of the defense. Losing 4 starting offensive lineman could be a challenge.

I am a bummed ND fan, but we still had a good season

[Kassian to Vancouver for Hodgson]

I'm glad Kassian declined the fight. I don't think the toughness Vancouver was after was a guy to fight another team's goon for no real reason.

 

Well put, toughness doesn't always mean just fighting and why risk taking an extra costly penalty in a tight game.

[Kassian to Vancouver for Hodgson]

That's a fair point. Perhaps that's the vice-versa you mentioned.

 

GO SABRES!!!

 

Dropping F bombs ready to fight Murray with Rob Ray standing in betweeen the 2. That fire is no where to be found anywheres on this current team
