    Do you realize Matt Irwin is in Washington’s top 6 this season and would be an upgrade for Bush, Clague, Bryson and Stillman. How sad is that ?

    I didn't bring up Irwin, you did. I also didn't say acquire Irwin, I just said he is currently better than Bryson or Clague and how sad that is because Irwin stinks.

    Huh?

    So you say, but the facts support my argument.  You can take it as negative, but sometimes the truth hurts.  

    For example, the Sabres are 5-21-3 when scoring 3 or less (1-13-1 at home).  Our GAA last season was 3.5 and this year it's 3.51.  Our save % was .894 last year and .893 this year.  No improvement.  Our PK was 76.42 last season and is worse this season at 72.35.  This despite adding Power, Lyubhskin, Clague, and Comrie and moving on from Miller, Hagg, Pysyk, Tokarski and Butcher.   Something clearly isn't working and it's not being negative to point of the truth.  

    However, I'm not negative.  I've been saying since last off-season that this is a playoff team with the right tweaks on defense and in goal.  Since he got the tweaks wrong in the off-season, why is it wrong to ask for him to correct the course and fix the known problems?

    If you had said Psysk or Miller, your argument might have made sense, but Irwin    Wouldn’t have started here this year (outside of the 8 game streak during injuries).

    Well Bryson was better than Irwin when he was here, Bush has been better than Bryson, and Clague has been comparable/slightly better than Bryson. We haven’t seen Stillman here yet, but this is quite obviously based more on your unending negativity more than fact.

    After last night, I won't be too upset if they could not pull it together tonight. I mean, this is the exact game situation where the have fallen pretty flat over the years. It would not seem real if they somehow managed to get this win and move into 8th. Although I would be ecstatic to get 2 points, I will not let my emotions get the best of me if it is a trainwreck. Wouldn't it be something though if this group could actually pull it off????? With Anderson in net.....

    When was the last time that the Sabres were within 2 points of a playoff spot near the trade deadline?
