Claude Balls

If he doesn't that will be just as big of a fail than this team not making the playoffs after being where they were in the standings

Skinner is beyond snakebitten

Next time he doesn't say this after a first period will be his first time That's because this is a second period problem goofy

Ray needs to pay better attention. Sabres haven't given up any big chances yet? A clean 2-1 that the Stars almost convert and a near shorthanded breakaway. Who? Lol

Who? If you weren't watching you wouldn't even know he was playing. Haven't heard his name yet. On another note, Stu Barnes looks exactly as he did when he played.

Not passing like they do, of course that's pretty much every night

That first line looks scary, and not in a good way. That's just gross. Nylander said in his interview that it was a little disappointing to not be with the Amerks because they've been playing so well. At least he doesn't like losing, I guess.

Is this a joke? ☺️

Bingo As for us fans at home, what we saw was Nelson being the first guy there that could've addressed the situation and all he did was a slow drive by. From the angle on TV we don't know what Nelson saw exactly, but him having played the sport his whole life he should have basic hockey instincts to know what happened. And also, the Sabres have plenty of asst coaches and other personnel throughout the building that can see everything. If Phil didn't see it, someone did and I'm sure they talked about Casey's response, hence the benching which is totally justified.

I know it's not 1987, I'm not talking about gooning it up which you seem to think some of us are. It's called playing physical, hard to play against. Something the Bruins have been successful at since they've been in existence. Tough players don't need to be fighters. The Sabres lack toughness, and even if they had those players that's not the coaches style. This team has a long way to go and I think PH is the biggest problem right now. Thumbs down away, here's two to get you started??

I tried to give this two thumbs up but it wouldn't let me.

Jets will have to pay through the nose if they wanna land him. He would prefer to re-sign with Denver, he really loves it there. NY gonna have to blow him away with their offer.

Not even, they at least made it to the second round of the playoffs recently

Kroft might be their insurance plan just in case they don't get whoever else they have their eyes on. Either way they still need more guys at the position with Croom the only TE on the roster.

Definitely an overpayment for an avg TE, but there wasn't much else out there. Maybe they can get Hock in the draft and have your starter right there.

And this years version of the Sabres can't do both at the same time effectively, and unfortunately can't play one way or the other very well anyways.

They better sign this guy after the underwhelming moves they've made so far. I was hoping for him over Paradis. Make it happen Beano

Still works for the teams that are built to play that way. The Bruins are a prime example of this and they are pretty good on a consistent basis.

Yeah, I noticed that as well. That was close to being bad.

Did they call out Nelson at all, or not mention any names?

I'm with you. Round is tougher, I like the tenderness of the brisket much better. But as long as the cabbage still has some crunch to it, I'll be happy. Not a fan of soggy cabbage.

Prolly a little of both, but getting your head stuffed into the glass by 6'5", 235 lb defenseman would give any player some cobwebs for a few mins at the very least

I think Jack had his bell rung a little bit and looked a little wobbly for a minute. Once he saw his teammates come in he kinda tried to get away to gather his marbles. He did just have his helmetless head rubbed out along the boards.

Wow, major brain fart. Guess that's how numb I am watching this team now. Still looks loke a typical Sabres home crowd. ?

Ray as GM and Marty as HC.
