I wonder how last night goes if EJ plays? It'd be nice if we could platoon him and Clifton until the end of the year. It'd be even nicer to get an upgrade on one or both of them and sit them until the end of the year. If only a GM could be so quick to admit where they went wrong.

From the times I check, Kulich hasn't seemed to be on the scoresheet as much as he did to start the season. What gives?

I was always had a certain amount of respect for her, even though I'm not a pop music guy. After this tour started though... It's been way too much. 🤮

You got that right

Sure buddy. You were probably whining about 20s weren't you.

But he bet on his guys to get a 1st down. I'll take that over him playing with his tail between his legs.

Give McDermott and Brady credit... They're playing this game to win instead of not to lose.

Old man Okposo is still better.

Zemgus Girgensons isn't very good.

Prediction Time: Will DG be fired during the season? If so, when?

Yeah... I already got called out on that... I was looking at 5 on 5. -
Just throwing out a PSA as distraction given the team's woes. You hear all the experts saying that kids have to play multiple sports... They need to take some take some time off... It'll all help you in the long run. As a father of an elite athlete, I'll say it's a bunch of bull 💩. My son played AAA hockey as well as elite ball since he was little. Every year he'd hang up the skates in April and pick up the baseball glove. After Labour Day, the baseball cleats were hung up and he was back on the ice. Every year, he was among the top kids and leaders on both teams. Having seen the OHL draft come and go last spring, there were zero top draftees that were legit two sport kids. All the kids were the same kids that were in the hockey wringer all year round. I know of just one kid that got drafted in any round that played any elite level ball (though admittedly I don't know anywhere close to all the kids). Looking back, my son was always up there with and ahead of many kids that went on to get drafted, but I feel I did a huge disservice to him by getting him playing a 2nd sport all along. He's decided to try the baseball thing full time to see where that could possibly take him. Again, every top kid whos in the "rankings" has been playing year round for a very long time now. It's a later peaking sport, so I think he still has time, but still he could be a lot further ahead than he is now. As a pitcher, his arm will thank him for not going all out since he was little, but the kids his age that are getting the college committments have been year rounders for a very long time now. Lesson- if you have a kid that's an elite athlete that wants to go somewhere with it... Don't listen to the same people I did. Let them play year round if they want to. Despite what the PC crowd will tell you, in the 2020's it's a necessary thing if you want to get to the next level. Go Sabres!

1. The team doesn't have goaltending because KA thought a rookie with 7 NHL games under his belt could carry the team. 2. KA brought in two trainwrecks on D, that because they're new, and because they're vets, DG will be forced to play them until the season is lost. 3. Instead of using cap room to get legit 3rd and 4th liners he brought back KO and ZG for their "leadership". 4. The best F on the team has been injured, along with their best sophomore F. The team sucking is a 90-10 KA-DG problem.
