Thanks for raising the quality of Sabrespace discussion.

You've given us all a lot to think about.

 

 

I do what I can.

[UPL's next contract]

Can't I just enjoy the season?

Tage weathered the truckloads of crap dumped on him by internet tough guys as the return for the O'Reilly trade, a skinny frame that shot up 8 inches in three years, a cancer scare from his wife, a devastating shoulder injury, demotion to the minors, and Ralph Krueger to transform himself into a physical specimen and a 38-goal scorer. Then he took the backlash of too much, too soon against his big contract and responded with 47 goals and 94 points.

Never once whined or pointed fingers

His career has been the definition of heart.

What's obvious is your dog don't hunt.

First place Tage Apologist award.

[Tage Thompson- What the h*** happened?!?!]

Cozens and Power don't have any infants I'm aware of and their play cratered too.

My hunting dog theory that these are thoroughbreds without heart seems valid. Some dogs just won't hunt. Sabres got a bunch of them Tage being the most obvious.

I think Granato and associates have to be gone after this season. No real reasonable reason for keeping them.

Granato is an award winning developmental coach with no obligation to winning a championship.

2-1 is more manageable. 

*Sabres are not going anywhere without Tage and Tuch.

I hope Donny tells them this is a make or break game.

I was saying the same thing to myself. Nice roadtrip after 3 in a row. Not so much with a loss today.

Mitts -Cozens experiment over.

Stacking wins is the only option right now. Talent is there still not sure the heart is.
