This. Lost in all the commercial hype, the hate of the either the religious significance or the spirit of the time of the year is the message a guy from Nazareth gave to the world somewhere around 2000 years ago. That message is to love one another unconditionally. Inspiring message, very sad adherence by the species to it.

and that's the game boys. oh well, the streak lives.

You guys through with the warm up skate now?

I swear Rodriguez is completely useless. And ya, kyle!

I'm a "Luke ambient air temp" fan. He's not consistent enough to play on the 1st line. But, If Buffalo can ever get a 2nd line center worth a dam, he'll slot in nicely there.

that's on Ullmark

Okposo, the last of the Murray era disasters. He'll be here until the end unless Seattle gets paid to take him. Just another footnote in the complete and utter failure now infamously known as "The Tank Era" here in Buffalo. With that being said, as you look at the AHL pipeline and the current roster, I don't see any size with snarl and speed in the foreseeable short term future with this club barring a trade.

I happen to agree with this. Ullmark is getting hung out to dry. Botterill's inability to add to the roster in-season is hurting the over all team imo.

And this is the core of it. The Sabres current roster just isn't a regularly physical roster. They aren't built that way.

The Sabres still need size with speed and snarl, but this is only 1 game out of 82. Maybe Botts will make a move around this time of year, but I'm very skeptical he will. I think we have to wait until the deadline. In the mean time, Toronto will continue to own us as they appear to have righted their ship for the season. Meh, it is what it is I guess.

Sounds reasonable. Couple of questions on the views expressed. Who is going to center a Skinner / Reinhart line? Would they be looking for a right handed shot RW for VO and Eichel.

I believe this will help his game a great deal. Build up his confidence to boot. Maybe he can find chemistry with Tage or one of the up and coming wingers.

Outside of his stats not looking very good, I know little about him. Is he physical, does he pk or something?

While yes, timing was a major contributing factor, players like to play there. And what's not to like, the greater Denver area is quite beautiful, albeit pricey as hell. As for Bogo, I have nothing against h8s performance personally, I am one of the guilty one's however that would like to move along from him given the amount of injury time. I guess I just don't see the ROI on the just over 5 mil for the time he's been here.

I'm guessing close with the Avs. Man that team's cap situation is well handled.

Love that they are clicking so well.

That was a fun game. Great win for the team. Jack is just freaking in straight out beast mode this season.

Well that sucks

The question I have, based on what you just said...…..what team is looking to add a package from Buffalo, assuming Mitts would be in a package, that would garner such a return? Honestly, the suspects based on situation, Ottawa, Philadelphia and maybe Calgary come to mind. Of course, in full disclosure, this is purely guess work based on the under 25 big piece and people league wide high on him combined with situational awareness, cap and roster wise. I could be way off though.

Agreed. A piece for the 3rd line? Sure, maybe even the 4th, his energy in game is there. I like Bogo for him honestly. We'll see.

Perfect! Scouts! SCOUTS!!!

Why isn't there an "All of the Above" option? ?

I understand, truly I do. But...……….I am sure he just loves rotating in and out of the press box due to the "over abundance" of Sabres D. Or, putting it directly, he wouldn't be rotated in and out if he earned it? Just saying...…….

Agreed. Mitts for Zucker?

We got this my main man NS! ?
