  1. TNT is better than Jack was tonight. Granted Jack is coming off a long injury break. But I am well satisfied with Tage.
  2. I was thinking the same thing. I watched this game and had a hard time noticing when he was on the ice.
  3. Yes I agree we definitely need to tweak the lines a little. I was just pointing out the most glaring position that needs fixing. The point I was trying to make is we are doing a lot better in the goal scoring department this year compared to the last several years. I'm willing to give Mitts one more season. Dahlin just since the all star break finally got his game figured out. Mitts wasn't drafted till the year after Dahlin. Mitts makes some really good passes and comes up with the puck along the wall pretty well. He just needs to start scoring more.
  4. Another entertaining win. When they went down two goals early I wasn't worried (that's a good feeling for a change). We now have a legit team that can score goals across all our lines. Just fix the goaltending for next season please. Power is going to be great. I really believe that he will come into his own quicker than Dahlin did. Power made a couple of rookie mistakes but overall he is playing solid hockey in just his third game of his career.
  5. Well another great game. I was afraid they wouldn't have enough gas to finish the game do to their grueling schedule but they played a full 60 minutes and were rewarded for it.
  6. I am afraid the sabres are gassed. Counting tonight's game the last seven games are/were against playoff teams. Five of these games have been against teams with 100 points or more with no more than one day break between. I'm hoping for the best but not going to be surprised if they continue to be sluggish.
  7. Mitts looked weak tonight. I think he is still struggling to get his stamina back.
  8. I know they were gassed after playing last night but you could tell the last 5-6 minutes they were just playing not to lose. I hate it when they get in that mode. They play their best when they stick to their game.
  9. Well the eakin give away was really bad. I hope they can make an improvement next year at his spot. He just doesn't help that line at all.
  10. Not a bad game all things considered. The no look pass by skinner was something. Mitts pulling the puck out of the double team on the wall was slick then the pass to victor fo the goal. They are definitely playing pretty good against playoff teams.
  11. Wow, another great game. They just keep stacking them up. And against playoff teams. Great character building.
  12. Another great game. They're starting to put them together more frequently now. Hope the local fan's start going back to the game's. It was great seeing and hearing the fan's tonight.
  13. I hate espn for many reasons. This is ridiculous. Nhl better do something better next year
  14. I don't get some posters who aren't willing to pay for a good goalie or want to rely on " hoping" our yong goalies can step up. This strategy will get us exactly what we got this season. We have to upgrade the goalie duo and be willing to pay for it if we want the playoffs. You get what you pay for.
  15. Feels good to be looking forward to games again ๐Ÿ˜ƒ. I haven't missed watching a game in along time but it's been hard to have any enthusiasm for the team until lately. This feeling is great for a change. Let's Go Sabres
  16. Absolutely we can win It all without one super star. I think we are two forwards and a good goalie tandem from competing for the playoffs. This should be relatively easy to get done in the off season. For the love of Pete I hope KA can pull it off. I think another year for growth and these guys can make a run for the cup.
  17. My memory is pretty bad. I know msg put up that stat sometime at the end. So I will defer to your account of it
  18. It was in 89 against the bruins in overtime 6-5 sabres. According to msg
  19. What a wild game. This is such a confidence booster for this young team. Still wish we had compitent goaltending but the team decided to even overcome that.
  20. Hey what... We have players that are cousins. Who are they? And how is it better for them for tuck and tompsin to play together๐Ÿ˜Ž
  21. I voted yes only if they upgrade goaltending. Pretty much every one here mentioned goaltending as being one of the things that would have to be fixed to make the playoffs. Hopefully KA has this as a top priority as well. I'm a little concerned though. He's had a couple of years to fix this and hasn't done it yet. For me this is his last chance. He's done a lot of good things but if he doesn't fix goaltending in this off season he should be fired. It's been a glaring hole in our team for way to long IMHO.
