ROR is at his best when his feet are moving and he's picking people's pockets. I haven't seen that consistently from him the first two games. That could be due to Housley's system or he could be starting to slow down. I hope not the later. It feels as though he's not playing at 100%. We may never know.

ROR eat a snickers, you're not yourself when your hungry

Maybe he needs to shave the beard...

Lets see what they do tomorrow. The matinee is always difficult it seems. Hopefully they bounce back. I firmly believe this roster still needs to turn over a few players. The lack of good wingers is apparent. I think JBotts is the right GM to do this. I would like to see Jack carrying the puck more through the neutral zone. He's the best in the league at zone entries so let's use him for it. I also agree with posts that they need to set up their PP with the intention of getting him the one timer. It's leathal.

Did the NHL make any changes to goalie equipment this year? Shrink the pads?

How bout Ovi putting in 4 goals tonight? 7 goals in 2 games. Wow.

Sabres are the pre-McDavid Oiler's... there are many fancy names and high picks but they just can't put it together.

Ouch... back to wing maybe

You may be right, maybe they need a bit more time to gel, but I agree things feel forced right now

Yes, I wonder if he's pissed he didn't get the C.

I think so too. Well, this is not how I pictured this year starting. Oh well.

Arrrrgh KO

Neither are we I'm afraid. Jack with a multi point night, unenthusiastic yay!!!!!

We aren't dictating play in their end, I'm still waiting to see the D get a clean shot on goal.

We aren't there yet, this roster still needs to turn

Oh hell

If Tavares isn't going to sign with the Isle's what do you send them to get it done? I'd give them ROR and a first.

Damn, that is precise, you should print that out to see if it comes true.

It's early, but at what point do we move on from the Lehner experiment? His supporters will point to stats but the fact is he's not stable mentally and he's terrible in shootouts. He lets in a lot a terrible goals but then makes a great save. I've never been a fan. I just feel the team doesn't play as well in front of him.

I was just thinking the same thing, playing hungry Risto getting angry

Chad Johnson with a huge stop right before the penalty ended. This game is out of control.

I'm declining the next penalty

Holy ! Kane!

What is going on with these shorty opportunities!?

We need one more this period, lets go Sabres!
