SABRES 0311

He put his stick on the ice and the puck just so happened to bounce off it in the direction of the goalie.

Ummmm yes

Not sure but in those days dmen didn't really activate which cuts down on scoring chances. Sabres specific I am thinking something in the eighties but my motivation to check is on par with Eichel's game time motivation.

Blackhawks had an 8 game scoreless streak in the 1928-29 season. I think we have the talent to beat that.

I think we can feel something is coming in terms of moves.

Call up the entire Amerasian and sit the entire Sabres for a game.

Yep. Might as well sit some guys and bring others up.

Fans are sounding extremely pissed. More so than usual. JBot has to do something big to save this season.

They have more drive

Good example of this teams issues is Eichel mishandling a pass from Lehner going behind the net. A couple seconds before his posture was that of someone who does not care. He said all the right things in the offseason, likely coached by his agent, and got his contract. I know it's not the most popular idea but he would fetch a nice return to help right the ship.

That little offensive pressure will be the basis of Phil's presser

Pens get the same quality scoring chances on the PK we get 5 on 5.

At this point why not sit our underachievers and less motivated players and give the prospects some experience? Sit Eichel, Okposo, Risto and bring up some hopefuls for two or three games.

Agreed

I would love to see a completely empty arena in response to this team's play. A big f@&k you to a garbage team.

Phil better call out players by name to the media. No reason to be worried about losing a room that isn't together anyway. Eichel should land a nice return in the near future.

Let the leading goal scorer on a struggling team "walk"? He's 16th in the league in goals and 32nd in points. A good skater with size and a top six forward on any team. If Eichel was what he was built up to be then I would agree. Nobody on this team or in the system currently provides or looks like they can provide what he does. Not saying he is the end all be all of the team but what is the plan when he "walks", indicative of no return?

HAHA. Rob Schneider from Grown Ups. Our power play is aMAZEing.

Its amazing how that happens. Its like a child generous in school. They do bad in regular classes because they are not challenged enough but excel in a more competitive environment.

That's escalated quickly.

Well well well

You see effort with 10 minutes left in each game. He signed a $10 mil contract and it's looking like way too much money.

You know how you keep Kane and Sam? Get rid of overhyped Eichel.

Get rid of this kid. $10 mil for no return.

Just saw the wrap around replay. Eichel with two guys st the backdoor and he makes no attempt to take one.
