Since this game is a dud, how about some trivia... Name one of the original members of the Ramones. No cheating/Googling.

They must presume some of us Sabres fans are watching.

Crowd-sourcing, basically.

I dunno. An opposing theory is he thinks "OK, I've proven I can build a winner in football. Now watch me build a winner in hockey and become a real big sh1t". I fully believe their top level management structure can only focus on one major sports team at a time. But we're getting ahead of ourselves....

Gotta be tough to be the bastard step-child of Buffalo sports.

I'd give it a grade B. The puck wasn't flat, which would be grade A.

Ha. If so, that begs what the question is.

Growing pains. Still. 🤮

So embarrassing. Hi Terry! Hi Kevyn! Enjoying the game? LOL

Nah, just a collection of players wearing the same uniform. Unless they're winning. Not a team.

Dump

My same situation! Haha

That's a nice looking goal for OP.

Go Sabres

Go Sabres

I don’t get the distinction. IMO, his message to the team was one and the same.

So, in fifteen words or less, what’s your take on why he’s centering the top line given how bad he is?

What is your take on how/why he’s centering the top line lately?

Do you think he’s a bad hockey player or a guy who’s trying to play himself into a trade?

Thanks. As a caveat, I look at some of the geniuses that play collegiate football and all the nuance of strategy and positioning that’s required, and wonder what I’m missing. Maybe that players have to play both offense and defense in hockey is different. But again, they’ve been dealing with that concept since they been five years old.

Can someone explain this to me like I’m 12 years old? I’m not saying it’s not, but other than speed, strength and veteran savvy/experience, how is the game fundamentally different? How many rookies come into the league saying “Wow, I’ve never seen a scheme like that.” Again, I’m not an Xs and Os guy at all. Really looking for an explanation.
