Everybody that plays the PK should be taking away passing and shooting lanes, and blocking shots. Thompson did what he should have done. Injuries happen.

Uh, Quinn is already a better 2way player and was already on a higher line, playing top 6 minutes.

They really should move on from Ellis and Wilford. Flush that era and move on.

It works. You first download the app. Then you run the app and use “search” for WGR or Buffalo Sabres and it takes you there. It is easy.

My second favorite Lindy Ruff moment. Here he is a 20 year old rookie.

There is only one Skinner. Lindy will tolerate very little.

His contract is not available. Yes, he stands behind the bench during games. He works directly for Laviolette, the HC. He coaches forwards. He wears nice suits too.

Maybe he can get us into and competitive in the playoffs, PLUS put his bright young successor on his staff to finish the job if/when he gets stale. Then he can go up to an executive level job after that and simply make sure no more stupid stuff happens ever again.

Gallant has been .600+ 4 times in his past 7 years as head coach, 7 straight playoff years. I just want to know that Adam’s reached out to him and a few others and had serious talks with them. I like Ruff, always have, I hope he gets us there again.

Could be that Gallant/Berube and others did not want it, or didn’t want to talk, or they like Lindy better based on interviews. I hope it’s the later.

There may be a place that he fits. He was a 7th rounder that could score some goals. He had 20 three times, one in only 56 games. Not a two way player but this year he tightened up his game to match the “defensively responsible “ system that Granato said he put in, that Adams emphatically said “never changed”.

Ruff it is. Not surprising.

The Sabres need an experienced coach for many reasons. They also need the results McD got. All your caveats on McDermotts accomplishments are immaterial.

Gallant is known as a hard ass and as a players coach.

On further review, it's 3. And there were 4 penalties committed to Benson that were not called, they were called on him.

Agree. And I like white jerseys better anyway.

Still too early to make that determination.

Most of them were fabricated crap calls. Maybe 2 were legit.

It was so “thin” he made the playoffs the first year, while starting a rebuild, and with Tyrod Taylor at QB. You could easily put a positive spin on his work. He ended a 17 year drought and helped turn Buffalo into a perennial contender and a place where players want to play.

Yes. If Adams was going to tell them anything, it should have been that they were partly responsible and they need to learn from this and get more serious about practice and pre game preparation.

just watched the Avs - Peg highlights. Well executed white out, but they wore road team colors. Mitts with a dirty goal. I honestly cannot see our team not being embarrassed in a game like this one. These games are at a level our boys have not seen yet, even our veteran players.
