  1. Nah, having lived through it, nothing is close to as bad as this. I’ll take heroic runs for 8th thank you very much
  2. Considering they are on a back to back, hopefully Chicago lets up in the third and we can bring it home looks like we need a bit of help
  3. Ya I saw the score just noticed we’re getting outshot by a bad team. How’s the balance of play?
  4. Watching the Grey Cup. Sabres hanging in there?
  5. Yes I think just making the playoffs would be very successful. At least from the perspective of the fan experience. Certainly from the team’s as well given their inability to do so in 12 years. Clearly they’ve proven it to be a hurdle worth striving for. Probably best to stabilize that level of success before aiming higher. Maybe final 4 is the only success worth living if you are the Vegas Golden Knights and a fan of that club, but the Sabres have proven that success for them necessarily, for now, would be represented by a much more modest achievement It’s not inability to win the cup that is breaking fans’ resolve, it’s the utter lack of competitiveness. If you need a cup to justify the existence of a being a fan, you have picked the wrong hobby as it very well may never happen. A team that makes the playoffs every year and at least gives themselves, and the fans, the feeling of having a chance every year is really all I ask for. The Tank didn’t just fail, it definitively brought home the idea that “we aren’t going to win the cup this year anyways” was always a bankrupt and poisonous line of thought. Just be a reasonable hockey team. Everything beyond that is gravy.
