Ullmark played a heck of a game.  Not standing on his head or anything, but a nice game.  (I still don't like that first Rags goal.)

True, but well composed in the game, especially during the final 90 or so on the pk

Growing belief around NHL that Jack Eichel will end up on the New York Rangers??? 

 

https://www.foreverblueshirts.com/growing-belief-around-nhl-circles-that-jack-eichel-will-be-on-the-rangers-one-day/

 

 

I'm not saying that Eichel will forever remain a Sabre.  There is certainly a real chance he leaves. My issue falls with this blog, and their middling effort and timing.  How natural a Rangers blog posts this before their first matchup. BS blogging, begging for clicks.  I would put money this is a saved draft from November.

First quote, an ESPN post from May 2020. Then tweets from Bobby Margarita, we already know from September.  Followed by an Athletic article prior to the start of the season. Also sprinkling in some Buffalo News articles.  Create original content.  This screams lack of knowledge, (failing to name a single prospect, other than Rangers' "prospect pool depth") "look-at-me-article."   

 

Forever Blue Shirts, I applaud you copying and pasting articles, tweets, and data from Greg Wyshynski, Bob McKenzie, Craig Custance, Lance Lysowski, Matthew Wuest (RIP), and CapFriendly dating back 8+ months.

I'm going into work tomorrow and telling guys, hey, just have some fun today. I'll supervise you Saturday. Wonder how well that would go over with my superiors.

Should be fine, your superiors will probably say the same.

I still like RaKru; however, I can't believe he said what he said.  How passive can you get?  Poor example.  Can't fathom a coach like Torts even thinking that let alone delivering something like that

I like him too, but it's a weird comment

I heard him say it.

I don't know what that means, "we'll worry about coaching tomorrow" ... so RK took a personal day?

Messy play overall, I agree. I wouldn't much stock into the game... but they had no control of the puck until the dire moments, thennnnn lost control again.

I agree, why should Kane care about Buffalo. He hasn't lived here in what? 12 years?

Not advocating for this ( click-batey) trade, playing devil's advocate, I guess...  I was born in Buffalo, haven't lived there in 21 years, aside from a year (part time) after law school... but I still love Buffalo.  Just because you've left a place for a while, doesn't mean you're rid of it, especially if it's where you were raised.

A royal goat head would be fine and interesting.  
 

But when you’re getting into this realm of “inverted” jerseys - then what? A yellow goat head jersey?

A white jersey with current colors makes the most sense aesthetically

[New Sabres Alternate Jersey?]

It may have been a prototype... this was several months ago. But, I agree.  Unless the Pegula's are full blown hashtag return to royal.

[New Sabres Alternate Jersey?]

Well I guess I can, kinda, take my a buddy's word that deals with this stuff to an extent... said Vegas would be red and Anaheim would be their throwback breaking through the ice;  Said the Sabres' jersey is royal blue/gold goathead jersey. Put the Sabres in the top 5 with the Blues, Pens, and Vegas; Buddy isn't a Sabres fan... however, his take on Vegas gives me pause.  Take it for what its worth... I can't verify without likely getting him/her in trouble (not that they would see this or likely care).

I didn’t watch it, but did McKenzie say that if he has been born 5 days earlier Quinn would not have been picked in the first three rounds of the 2019 Draft?

Yup.

Let’s assume the silly notion is true. If so, the question is would you rather have Rossi or Staal and Quinn?

Next year, the latter.  Long term, I would have preferred Rossi... but what the hell do I know? 

[Sabres, 8th overall pick: Jack Quinn]

Just now, SDS said:

I suggest this earlier in the thread. I think people are just sparing my feelings. LOL

I honestly thought it was a fair point, but Staal is at best a 2 year place holder.  I want to think it had little to nothing to do with the trade, and their ultimate assessment was Quinn > Rossi.

[Sabres, 8th overall pick: Jack Quinn]

I'm sh--ting on this too much... obviously hoping it works.  I like the kid, maybe not at 8, but fine. I just hope the Sabres did their due diligence, rather than going off what the previous regime had ahead of Quinn.

I would like to redact my previous comment.  Rossi is not fat, but rather Rossi Brind'Amour.
