Nashville is getting skated into oblivion...they look old and slow

Quinn with a rocket!!

How the hell do they miss a 2 on 0??

It's why I stopped playing soccer in my late 20s. No skill players think they can make up for it by being dirty and taking you out. Not worth the potential serious injuries from one of these idiots. Saw a few of my friend go down with torn knees, broken ankles, etc and I had a situation in indoor where a fat dude came running full speed as I got to the ball and literally threw me face first into the boards. Luckily I saw him coming and turned at the last second so I got my hand up or I likely would have broken my nose and possibly my face. I got up and absolutely hammered him at midfield and sent him flying into a girl(it was coed) and he ended up on top of her and then the benches cleared. After that year and seeing some of my friends get hurt in outdoor I stopped playing.

They really are just not very good. Sabres are skating them out of the building.

F**king UPL almost let his 4th crappy goal of the game in there...my God is he fighting the puck tonight. Sabres should be up 4-1 in this and cruising.

Captain My Captain!!

Our goaltending situation is unacceptable.

3 bad goals.

2 bad goals for UPL. C'mon man...be better

Goalofsson!! Looks like their offensive scoring touch has come back...

WTF...they pushed UPL into the net...not only is that not a goal, it should be goaltender interference.

DC rips it! UPL...no softies to let them tie it please.

Hmm...are we going to see a new documentary called Snake King on Netflix by the end of this year?

I dunno how the hell that didn't go in... Sabres just having bad puck luck the last 3 games.

Just a dreadful giveaway by Dahlin

Hello, hello! I don't know why you say goodbye, I say hello.

Lyubushkin for sure. Dude would crosscheck his mother in front of the net.

Yesterday heard on WGR that Paul Hamilton said Samuelsson didn't play the last 7:30 or so of the Kraken game but since they were off yesterday they had no media availability to find out about it. Sabres are 3-10 without him so hoping it is minor if he can't go tonight...

shrug.

Dahlin has increasingly become that The Sabres were good pretty quickly after being an expansion team

You could literally say that about any team, expansion or otherwise. They also did a TON of backroom deals and took advantage of ALL of the special situations they got to take advantage of leaving no stone unturned to either get good players or draft picks for not taking players. It was an absolute masterclass of GM'ing for an expansion team.

And that's balanced by 6'5", 6'4" and 6'2"

You mean except for Vegas that made the SC Finals their first year? And don't even try the "they got lucky" angle. I watched a LOT of their games that year and they were damn good.

Not really. They are at minimum league average in that category. Just a lazy take based on the last 15 years and not the current lineup. And going back and looking not even then...it's been like 25 years since the Sabres fielded an average team under 6'1" and all of them were in the 200-206 lb weight average. NHL teams range from an average height of 6'2" to 6'0". The vast majority (like 25) average 6'1"...which is where the Sabres are at. Their average weight of 195lbs is a little lighter than average but a lot of that can be attributed into so many young players that need a few years to fill out into their bodies.
