Pittsburgh fires GM Hextall and POHO Burke
irregularly irregular replied to Brawndo's topic in The Aud Club
I'm of the opposite opinion. TBL have been sandbagging for the past month and resting up for TO. TBL in 4, maybe 5 at the most. Ontario implodes and it gets really ugly as the wholesale changes rain down on management, coaching, players, staff, you name it. Just IMHO of course. -
Will the Buffalo Sabres make the playoffs?

Yogi said it best. It's never over, until it's over. Go Sabres!!! -
Disturbing video of Danny Briere's son

My prediction is young Mr. Briere's 15 minutes of fame will be the result of a Law and Order episode. -
Has Casey Mittelstadt changed any minds?
irregularly irregular replied to dudacek's topic in The Aud Club
Okay, my bad if so. Mittelstadt thread with the usual conversation tangents. Regardless, need more than that for VO. -
Has Casey Mittelstadt changed any minds?

Upgrade the position... yes absolutely. Trade him for a pick or a prospect... absolutely NOT. You'd be the first in line to crucify KA if that was all he got in a trade of Mitts. -

Maybe Mitts woke up and realized the tide was coming in. He seems to have decided to do what needs to be done to ride the wave rather than grab a PFD and float while the wave passes him by. I'll let KA and DG make the determination about where he fits. Either way it's good for the Sabres if Mitts has found his game or if Mitts has increased his trade value. -
Will the Buffalo Sabres make the playoffs?
irregularly irregular replied to PASabreFan's topic in The Aud Club
Sabres streak is worse because we are Sabres fans. That and the Jest and their imbecile owners and delusional fans are the worst examples of what professional sports should be about. Let's not even go there. -
It's not on Granato, yet. A year from now maybe, and that's if KA gets him a full toolbox to work with. Tools being 2 solid (top 4) D men and a bridge goalie (real goalie, not a hoping for something better goalie) that can backstop the team until UPL and/or Levi are ready to take the reins. Icing on the cake is a experienced 4C to take important draws and drive the PK unit. Add those things to another year of experience for the youth movement and Granato is in trouble if they piss their pants over the last 25 games of the season. Short answer is nope, not even a consideration at this point.

Let's Make a Deal (Suggestions for K.A. for 2023)
irregularly irregular replied to PerreaultForever's topic in The Aud Club
That's the cool thing about KA. It gets out of hand, he gets out. He's not crossing those lines. -
Let's Make a Deal (Suggestions for K.A. for 2023)
irregularly irregular replied to PerreaultForever's topic in The Aud Club
Do I recall correctly that Levi felt that his game was similar to what Saros does in Nashville? And KA has already made a down payment with the Preds in the form of Asplund for a 7th. I'm trying not to overthink this. -
Devon Levi: Mike Richter Finalist, 2023
irregularly irregular replied to LGR4GM's topic in The Aud Club
KA says he is not standing in the way of the kids and allowing them to earn their spot on the Sabres when they are ready. If Levi is more ready than UPL and Comrie then so be it. Anderson certainly isn't any part of the future unless it involves coaching. I'm trying to temper my enthusiasm, but this young man seems to have something special about him. -

Who is the goalie coach for the peewee team in that town? That's who needs to be brought into the organization. -
2023-24 Sabres Early Thoughts
irregularly irregular replied to GASabresIUFAN's topic in The Aud Club
It's really makes me kind of excited and a bit nervous to think about how much talent might not have a spot on the 2023-24 roster. There are going to be some very good hockey players not seeing NHL ice time with the Sabres next year. At the same time there are some holes that make you wonder how they are going to be filled. There will be some talent leaving in order to properly fill those holes. KA is going to have to give up something to get something and surprises might occur. Things like giving away Asplund at the deadline will hopefully provide good karma for future deals. I see only about 7-8 current Sabres who are untouchable at the moment and several talented guys looking to push the others down the roster or out the door. -
DG knows that VO does one thing, and only one thing, well when he's got it going. That was a good opportunity for VO to get it going again and imho nothing more should be read into it than that. Not about love as much as it was about taking advantage of the opportunity. I will not be surprised to see VO sent packing in the off season.

Rasmus Asplund traded to Nashville for a 2025 7th Round Pick
irregularly irregular replied to Brawndo's topic in The Aud Club
Gone are the days when the Sabres had cornered the market on NHL level Rasmii. -
That's going to leave a mark. Boston going to be doing some roster gymnastics this summer.

Sabres Trade Deadline 2023 Discussion
irregularly irregular replied to GASabresIUFAN's topic in The Aud Club
This is what KA is all about. Today doesn't matter nearly as much as tomorrow and the future beyond that. He will trade if and when it is too good of a deal to pass up and it absolutely has to have very strong potential to make the Sabres a better team going forward beyond this year. He is walking his talk. -
How about if it was titled Scoreboard Watching on Saturday, 18Feb. Does that work better for you? I like this idea of having a separate spot to look at this info. Thanks much to Lou for starting the topic and I vote him official keeper of the daily scoreboard watching thread.

Around The NHL 2022-23 Regular Season
irregularly irregular replied to Brawndo's topic in The Aud Club
Absolutely agree with this. Some games should not be worth 2 points while others are worth 3 points. Play hockey during an overtime period and if tied after that, kiss your sister and take your 1 point while the opposition does the same. So simple and easy but the NHL can't figure it out. -
Everything is questionable when you don't win the Lombardi. Whomever wins this year will have questions about next year. That's life in the big leagues. I'm not wearing rose colored glasses. I've stated previously that the OC and DC cause me concerns. Dorsey will hopefully learn and adapt. I await word on what the plan is for the defense and if a new coordinator is in order.
-
Dawkins moves to LG and is the back-up LT. Morse starts to begin with and mentors his replacement who is drafted. Bates backs up RG, C, LG. Brown has to win his RT spot, otherwise is the swing tackle. Saffold is an UFA and has to come back at a reasonable price to fight for his position. Yeah, they need to be back and also be pushed down the roster by better options.

Got beat in every aspect of the game. It will be interesting to see what changes are made in the off season. It is obvious that injuries had an impact this year, but OC and DC play calling are certainly suspect over the 2nd half of the season. They got figured out, didn't make the necessary adjustments to overcome the personnel issues and the schemes other teams were throwing at them. Some teams they could beat anyhow, but it's the playoffs and they got their lunch taken and punched in the mouth as a reward.

It's the playoffs and the teams still playing are the real deal. Everyone has game and they are all professionals. Everyone giving it everything they have. If they don't max out, their career may be over, therefore it's a battle from start to finish of every game. The LAC-JAX game is proof of what happens if you think it's over before it's over.
