Kevin Adams was on Sabres Live today. Said they’re sticking to the plan. So don’t expect any game changing trades this year.

Junior team in Rochester. Many familiar names on the coaching staff.

Sitting in doctor’s office waiting to get a cortisone shot in my left shoulder that’s been hurting since summer. Today I got tripped playing hockey and now my right elbow has swollen to the size of a baseball. Maybe I’ll get that drained too.

‪Asplund and Hinostroza should be playing with Krebs instead of those two anchors.‬

My son in Boston is going. He says parking near the stadium costs $150. 😳 I’d take the under, maybe 5,000.

Watch the recorded games without knowing the score. Watch the Bills first as they won’t mention the Sabres. Then watch the Sabres, and if/when they get behind you fast forward until they tie it up. Skip all the stoppages and commercials from both games.

But this is a new deck chair they salvaged from the Lusitania.

Don’t understand why Duff and Marty can’t do their pre/post show from home, they do Sabres Live from home most days.

I don’t like those pairings. Samuelsson should be with Dahlin and Jokiharju with Power to balance an offense with a defensive player.

Driving to hockey on the other side of town last week the transmission on my 2015 Caravan with 59k stopped working. Being 30 miles from home, I had it towed to the closest repair shop. Got it back today. They said the transmission filter was clogged with metal particles, but they couldn’t tell how bad the damage is unless they took it apart which is essentially a rebuild for $5-6k. They replaced the filter and I drove it home. The repair guy said it could last two weeks or two years, but if I was thinking of getting a new car, now would be a good time to trade it in. So now I have to decide what to do.

They set Samuelsson’s locker up again today, which means he’ll be practicing soon.

I wonder if Tuch is playing hurt. He just doesn’t seem to have the speed he had earlier in the season.

Buffalo is like the Moses of the sports world. We are allowed to get a peak at what the promised land looks like but are never allowed to cross into it.

Okposo being punished for fraternizing with the enemy by having Eichel over to his house.

I guess you missed all the odd man rushes, breakaways, deflections off teammates, and D zone turnovers.

Actually it’s defensemen. Eichel outskated an AHL player.

They’re not at the point yet where you trade a 1st round pick or top prospect for a veteran top 4 D. That happens when they are a playoff team.

Every team could do better than their third pair. The issue is what’s the cost. And I doubt Adams would be willing to do it.

Boosh and Bryson are a good third pair.

Enough with the D pinching and giving up breakaways. God I miss Samuelsson.

Forwards gliding back instead of digging in to cover. 🙄

That’s not on him, it was deflected.

So who sits for Hinostrosa tomorrow?
