Feeling it today... Or perhaps the updated version they play on MSG Or maybe the old school Belgian guitar group, the Jokers: Or maybe even a bad ass piano version by Liberace: Or maybe even some Perrault highlights set to Sabre Dance??

OK clownshoes.

But it means something that the pace started once they got Tuch/Krebs and a few players returned from long term injuries. I honestly don't care about him anymore. He put up points and a lot of Wow! Moments here but he was also a reason why this team perennially underperformed. It's not a coincidence the team has played much better since he has been gone than while he was here.

They have played 33 games at the same pace now.

I think they will be fine...that's why they got Pilut. Willing to bet he looks a lot better under Meatball's system than he did last time he was here.

You mean Krebs who has been in the lineup on an every game basis since he was acquired in the trade? How long does someone need to play to "break into a lineup"? Their whole career?

I'm still waiting for you and your band of merry brothers to let us know how the Sabres are about to be exposed...

The D in general and their defensive zone coverage has been a huge improvement over anything we have seen in recent memory. Very few players left standing wide open for easy goals...most times they are forcing tough passes to guys who are covered pretty well. No running around chasing the player with the puck in their own end anymore. Its been pretty impressive to watch.

Who is going to say it?? Anyone?? Anyone?? Bueller?? Bueller?? Nobody?? Fine...I will... "Ooh, Aah...Sabres on the Warpath!"

Sabres are getting a lot of respect from other teams fans on the boards... Lots of things like "That is a good young team over there with tons of speed and skill" And "I really like the way they play, they are young, talented and exciting to watch" Nice to see that other teams fans are starting to see the same thing we are

They should be able to tell if the ACL is obviously intact tho via examination. It's typically when they aren't sure when the MRI is needed to help them see. Great news...that looked really bad

Wow...Sabres with the 3rd best goal differential at in the NHL at +11 next to Pittsburgh(+15) and Dallas(+12).

Chiclets on ice?

Them boys good!

That was a mostly boring period

Ristolainen had one in 2015 against Calgary This game has turned kinda mucky

Maybe,maybe not. Even so it's 10 months after he had surgery. Where people get the idea someone is coming back in under 5 months is what I am questioning

OK...guess we will see. He is holding the area where your ACL is on the leg

There is no way... Tre White still isn't back and he tore his Thanksgiving last year

I don't think so...it's 9 months minimum. Tre White tore his on Thanksgiving last year and still isn't back on the field although he is close to returning

ACL done for the year...damn...Samuelson was playing really well

Yes it has...the original Rasmus(Ristolainen) had one December 2015 against Calgary Ristolainen had one in 2015 against Calgary

I heard he went up the tunnel and went to the bathroom to call Vontae Davis and get some advice as to how to pull this off properly

But..but...but...I heard right here on these boards there were a number of posters who knew the Sabres were about to be exposed but didn't want to ruin the party...
