SABRES 0311

They made it through Colorado with injuries. No reason not to beat the yotes despite the same injuries. TT scores because he always does. Muel scores (hopefully). Quinn scores (off a Cozens assist) 5-2 Sabres win.

I see your point but I think it’s a way for posters to keep themselves from getting so pissed off they post something that gets them banned. Kind of like walking away from someone who deserves a beating because jail food sucks.

Last two games were ok. Small sampling. I was wondering the same. Does Skinner play with Olof and Mitts with TT/Tuch?

Has it been a while since anyone posted in them?

In 2022, everywhere.

Lol. You can try.

I went with Dahlin. Could be convinced for either though.

Got caught up on last night’s post. Looks like it got weird in here.

Hoping they continue with the offense in the third. Don’t go Alamo.

And Jost did good with KO and Girgs. I could see HCDG going with those lines next game. I’m all for a permanent goat head third jersey. Not a fan of the reverse retro.

Well this didn’t work out.

You might be right that VO, while sort of one dimensional is the better option. What about Peterka? Problem is who takes Peterka’s spot. Probably robbing Peter to pay Paul.

He’s been producing and seems comfortable there. He’s getting time with the Captain and an Assistant Captain. Don’t see how that’s a bad thing for a struggling young player. He’s not getting buried he’s developing, hopefully back up the lineup.

Exactly. To date Krebs is expendable and has not shown much upside outside of a fourth line roll. Some might say there were similar feelings toward TT. The difference is TT had size and shot. I haven’t seen many attributes from Krebs that makes me think he could be special. Hope I am wrong in the end.

Agreed. He’s been more productive but on the fourth line. Therefore, if he remains on that line he gets fourth liner pay. Understanding that comparisons to other players is a thing for setting market value.

When he’s not killing QBs he’s recovering fumbles.

White needs to drink more milk. Finish him!

Bills defense:

Reminds of “The Program” when Alvin Mack describes killing the QB. Outstanding, make the opponent pay.

Milano folded him like a chair 🤣

Because the Sabres are not reliable on faceoffs. The coach knows this. Best faceoff guy is Cozens at 48.8%. Less than 50/50 chance of winning it with an open net. As the league’s second best offense, if they win the draw they have a chance to create something in the few seconds it takes the goalie to the bench. Risk vs gain taking into account other factors.

I think it’s a fine line Adams is trying to toe. He knows offensively this team is in a good place but to improve goaltending it’s going to cost. Using high draft picks for NHL players reduces his ability to stock Rochester and develop more players. Trading existing players may reduce offensive production. In my inexperienced GM opinion there will be no moves until the deadline. If we are out of playoff contention Olof might be moved. I could see Mitts and/or UPL moved in the off-season giving Adams more time to find a suitable partner/return. I see Pilut gone after this year too. UPL/Mitts and a pick could get us an NHL goalie for a 1A/1B situation with Comrie next year. Defensively I imagine Adams is hoping this season’s worth of experience enables us to be more responsible in the DZone next year. Plan A is use negligible players and a pick(s) for a goalie. Keep three of four lines in tact. Rely on experience for better defense next year.

Too soon to say who the nominees are for either party. I could see Desantis beating Trump and the Dems not wanting Biden to run again.

So in the last week or so a rocket lands in Poland and Putin eludes to nuclear weapons, again.
