Exactly. Lawton says Adams should have said give me a 5 team list. But that's just day dreaming, because Adams did not do that. The fact is Hall was given an NMC, and Adams honored that NMC and worked a trade to the only team Hall wanted. No one should be mad at Hall or Adams for working the trade deal itself. And signing Hall for 1 season was an attempt to better the teams fortunes. This is a subject that is much ado about nothing. Take the 2nd rounder and Bjork and move along, case closed, imho.

Risto needs to plow Crosby.

As with any individual or group of younger sports players they are going to have their maturation process ups and downs. Cozens is merely 20, Mitts is 22, Dahlin and Joker on the blue line merely 21. Bryson, R2, Asplund, Borgen and Thompson are at what I consider the "saturation maturation" age, that 23 to 25 window where the earlier years of development will show their growth toward veteran status. Of course, when looking at Reino, Eichel, Risto and McCabe, I view them as the first wave of the "new veterans" of the team. If the franchise can keep this group somewhat intact and address the net minder situation, I believe we may be witnessing the start of a speed and skill Era of Sabres hockey not seen since the Drury/Breire days. Just my opinion of course, but some of what is taking place post Krueger, such as passing, speed, breakouts and confidence simply cannot be ignored.

Rake the last of the leaves up, 9r watch hockey? Hmmmmm.... I'm reminded of my parents telling me when I was younger that yard work will instill a sense of purpose in me. And in pursuance of passing that down to the next generation, my lovely children are the proud recipients of that lesson every winter and spring 🙂 while dad of course, takes on the more serious household task of calling out the score today from his recliner 🙂 go sabres!

Significant others business manager positive, peer at work mom positive, all in the last 3 days, I'm feeling squeamish as it tracks closer to me. Think I'll tell my employer Monday is shot day. On top of that, mom's lymphnods are swelling from neck to mid section, biopsy at Roswell on Monday for her, and I go in to my doctor Monday morning, feel an uncomfortable irritant in my left lower stomach muscle area. No bulge, but I feel it. Hell of a week for health related.

That's what I'm thinking to.

Exactly. Change up the player support positions, go to a 2 up 1 mid 2 low break out. The mid should offer a relief valve instead of looking up the boards.

YES!!! Just win boys, just win!

I am so hoping Boston does give him a meaty 5 yr or so contract 🙂

Mitts has been very good these past 2 weeks or so.

I'm going with a protest NO vote. If Canadian Media goes to hell all cable news should go as well.

Are you not entertained? I said, ARE YOU NOT ENTERTAINED!!!!

If we end up with the 1st overall, I say we trade down with the CBJ's... 1st OA for 7th OA and Oliver Bjorkstrand or 7th, 29th and 30th OA.

Prepping Quinn to fill a vacant 1st line center slot perhaps? At any rate, if he sticks at C we are going to need a couple RW'ers, no?

No, just No. The line must drawn in the sand. Not one step back. No more losing. I don't care where they draft, and neither should any fan. Just Win Boys!

Very well. From this point forward, I will take your every post as sarcasm and/or humor, therefore, my responses will reflect my "Thorny response jam" 😄

Emoji's man, use them! 🙂

Well, in all fairness, it was reported. Also, an overwhelming majority of the Sabres fan base has every right, with factual data to back it up, to be very pessimistic on EVERY former Penguins organization hiring. After all, 8 years of advisors, coaches, front office personnel from the Penguins organization has done soooooooooooo much for Buffalo, don't you agree?

Lazars replacement.

I think Eichel is looking at the current team play and has a raised eyebrow, as a positive.

Ok, I held tough on my calling the score for 6 periods, I went a period to far. Someone else's turn now lol

2 weak netminders, Boston's is weaker than Buffalo's The Shootout Buf 3 - Bos 2

Now for goal 3 Buf 3 - Bos 2

Yes YES I feel the Buf 3 - Bos 2 Force It grows strong now

As I suspected, the first 2 periods physical play has the Bruins tired. Now is the time to strike. Buf 3 - Bos 2
