    It sure would be cool when a Sabre gets injured he’s not out until the next millennium.  What is it with this team and injuries. 

    Agree… Conditioning?… Equipment?… Overly cautious on returns?… Mittelstadt’s been out for weeks with upper body injury… Broken bone?… Rotator Cuff?… Separated shoulder?… Anyone know?… Sabres are cryptic with injury information…

    We have learned that John is a selfish POS. He was a locker room cancer and a miserable person. We learned he is the antithesis of what being a leader is. John will never win a thing in the NHL or the Olympics. My prediction is he burns the Knights down and we get their 2023 lottery pick. 

    Agree with your read on the kid… Will be interesting to see his impact on the Knights if he returns to form after his surgery… Even if he does, doubt the kid has the character to survive the temptations of Las Vegas… My bet is he washes out… or crashes and burns before he turns 30… But he got his trade… and he has his dough… Like the rest of us… up to him to make good choices…

    I feel this too. The Sabres chipped away at the emotion required to invest, for a decade, a third of my life. Being a fan of another team of course isn't an option, never has never will, so it sorta causes a detachment, to a degree, from the game as a whole. Like I said - I'm not going anywhere: for me the Sabres are hockey, to a large extent (as much as I love the game overall). But it'll take a good long while for the emotion and passion to come back for me, I think. Just waiting, right now. 

    Whoever said all that tanking would do damage to the soul of a fan - your are correct, and wise, and I regret ever rooting for losses. I think I'd take that back, if I could.

    The appreciation and love for the fanbase doesn't waver - frequenting this site remains, even when the team isn't drumming up the passion. 

    You know the old market saying… “Get a hunch, buy a bunch”… My bet is… this group brings you and others back…faster than you think

  4. Saddling Granato with a selfish player who thinks he is a super star… when you have a locker room of kids learning together with the help of a handful of real pros… would be counterproductive… Adams won’t do it… unless forced by the Pegulas… Someone posted the given reality earlier… Eichel is a cancer… Good riddance…

  5. Agree it is the Pegula’s call… If it were my decision, when Eichel and his Reps give up any claim to remaining contract compensation if he is unable to pass a team physical after the surgery he wants… he can have it his way… The Sabres retain all rights… Pass or fail, let any team outside the division make an offer…
