I've been thinking this for a while. For a team that seems to be built around speed and skill guys, our speed is not evident. Very rarely do we get guys hauling ass and speeding up the wing.

Don't judge a book by its cover?

Stand up for yourselves Sabres. Even if you lose. You cannot remove the stench of being perceived as a punching bag.

I kinda want someone to "go rogue" and go to the front anyway, repercussions be damned.

You are what your record says you are.

Lack of leadership and accountability and determination when things aren't going their way. We are not what you would call a gritty team.

You sound surprised.

He's definitely got some lazy to him. When's the last time you saw him skate flat out?

Great shift

FWIW, Joey Daccord grew up about 20 min away and I remember him playing youth hockey as he's the same age as my older son. His father is a goalie coach. That said, I hope we put up six on him early and chase him from the game.

Let’s go. Enough dickin’ around. Time to string a few together and get back in this thing.

Jacky Boy can sling it

Looks like our PP is effective when the opponent plays a tight box vs a PK that comes out and challenges.

For me, patience is a function of progress. When it’s “one step forward, two steps back” for prolonged stretches, I lose patience. Kinda simple actually.

Haha... no sh!t...

Happy for any win. That said, letting a meh team like CBJ take us to OT on the second of a back-to-back? With the number of shots we had on a meh goalie? As Johnny Bender might say, it doesn't really "pump my 'nads". Go Sabres! Go Bills!

Nice Casey

Just don't yawn. I'm telling you...

What an odd thing to take issue with, amongst all the other hot takes and hysterical meltdowns on this board daily. If you think I give a ****, you've got the wrong guy.

Thanks for the public service announcement. Why not just do it?

(yawn)

Get well soon, Don. You're a good man.
