  1. Our goal differential was 93% worse before this 7 in 8 stretch think about it
  2. If there was a possibly of signing Marner, for example, I would focus far more energy there than on a hypothetical 2nd pairing D man BPA. Bottom 10 team Playoffs should be something we think our roster has a lock on not just a chance at
  3. Can’t agree This is a mindset thing. Yes, we are 15th in 5 V 5 differential. I think adding everywhere is a priority
  4. Feel like a trade would be becoming more realistic
  5. I’d rather have Adams as GM than you, can’t believe I said it
  6. You get that words have meaning, right? You can just say “disingenuous” when it doesn’t apply. Disingenuous implies and requires intent and I never said “there is no experience at the position” We don’t have the 9th best offence. no, 9th in goals doesn’t mean 9th best offence. Not all goals are created equal, you get that too, right? It’s not ipso facto sort the standings by goals and that’s your definitive rank of “offences”. Ridiculously simplistic, entry level analysis “Despite some of our forwards being poor 2 way players and our team defence being poor the forwards aren’t an issue” 🫡
  7. Leafs have a better RW combo, that’s why we need Marner
  8. Ya he was at C the game I was at live, I guess that was in the 10% lol
  9. Are we really thinking Tage doesn’t end up back at C? Isn’t he there right now?
  10. And the rub is that, even it it might be: why the heck risk it. Add to the team as if making the playoffs *actually is* the goal and missing is unacceptable. The roster isn’t close to contender level, regardless! Either way, there is zero reason not to do eveything you can to improve and that means attacking the roster aggressively in all areas. also, then when excuses happen, they are merely roadbumps. NOTE: this post is *not* sarcasm this time
  11. The concept of every year the sabres being “2006 again!” but oh ya fire the GM
  12. “That’s disingenuous, they were call ups” what? That’s my point lol. Young. Inexperienced. lol and then the comparison to 2006 i can’t Honestly Howdy doody is the man. Forwards are a masterclass. The bottom 10 finish is entirely reflective of the one or two players you want replaced and not the 95% majority. As we’ve seen with hockey, one or two players carry teams to playoffs or tank teams single-handedly
  13. Unfortunately when you wake up tomorrow it’s always the present again
  14. Dahlin’s put up thus far his second best career mark in assists, goals (tie), and points - but it’s arguably been his best season. this one stings
  15. Kulich Kozak and Norris played a total of 80 games combined for the Sabres this season, not an egregiously reassuring total for 3/4 of the most important position in hockey If that’s the sort of unit we want to pencil in for next year Who’s the stable presence? I see bets placed on Norris, Kozak, Kulich all stacked on top of eachother. Good gamblers mentality McLeod, I guess? That’s your reward for pleasantly surprising in your role I guess “we can’t have that, here’s more responsibility”
  16. A monumental day in Blue Jays history
  17. I’d give him a shot there to start next year addition by subtraction, Mensa level player relative to Dylan “grade 10 level intelligence” Cozens
  18. One sabres loss or one habs win eliminates us
  19. Tage is more heated about 50 than the team reaching 90
  20. The league is beginning to take notice of the man behind our success…
  21. These are the Buffalo Sabres This is what it’s all about
  22. At this point I think we have a good shot we will be winning our last 6 after today so a 1-3-1 from Montreal gets it done theres only 5 points between us and 9th that’s like 2 games for this team
