I'm not worried about the kids in the playoffs yet, my concern is that they make it to the playoffs in the first place. Both Sabres and Amerks seasons are scheduled to end on 4/29 and the Sabres aren't sending anyone down until Power signs (if then, depending on injuries). Right now, the Amerks are in 6th place in their division based on winning percentage and every team in front of them has games-in-hand. This season the top 5 in the North make it, with the bottom two getting a wildcard round of their own. The Alt pickup is a good thing for the chase for that 4th/5th spot. (Granted: so is getting Malone, MacInnis, and Quinn healthy and getting Jankowski through waivers.)

Considering Samuelsson, Fitz, and Bryson aren't coming back to be a part of the playoff chase, picking up a vet like Alt was a good move. Hope it's not too late.

Bo knows it only takes one attempt to break a bat. Although, I still think @Eleven's right with the answer of baseball. Baseball managers stop the game, throw tantrums (throw bases if they happen to be Lou Pinella), and basically put go into a whiny histrionic rage... and it's perfectly acceptable. The crowd cheers or laughs. The umpires get all huffy and uppity and offended and then let the manager go about their tantrum, and then it's over. And what's the outcome? Nothing. It's the manager. No one cares. The lineup card is still the lineup card. The shifts are still going to be dictated by a pre-game chart. The backup/bench coach is still going to make the same exact pitching changes, maybe be a bit more or less aggressive running the bases.

Can we win a Cup without a Superstar forward?

Briere, for a few years there: borderline star. Drury: not at all. -
Yup. Bo Jackson cracked his bat over his thigh after a strikeout and the world thought it was awesome.

Absolutely. A single super star destroyer can be held in check in a series. But all you need are a couple very good forwards playing great during the playoffs. Throw in a hot goalie and you're in business. Of course... this is assuming none of the Sabres' current forwards are capable of being superstars. -
Now, release your anger. Only your hatred can destroy me that stick.

Good to fight back for the point, poor once it was tied at 3-3 and again at 4-4. However, with the exception of EDM this month of March has been very good hockey. -

So much space to skate up, and instead going for the end-to-end pass. Not clean. -

Ray, so you're saying we're due for a powerplay goal... -

Thanks, Mr. Anderson. Somehow Dahlin got crossed up there and overlapped with Butcher. -
