You have to admit, it is kinda sad when your favorite team sucks the life out of you 2 games into a season.....I do not want a tank!!! We would just screw up some young good kids career until he asks for a trade.

I hate to say that i have already given up on this tire fire.... but i am so numb. I watch and do not even care anymore. Only good thing is that the Avs (My next fav team) is about to go to 3-0-1. Fck the Sabres

Zero faith in this organization and team. But happy to watch hockey win or lose

Go Avsssssss

You are an ***** and should be banned...... LMAO!!!!!!!!!!!!! Great call on the opening day shutout!! 😁

Fck MSG!!!! Season opener i cannot watch!!

Games on espn*

Offense looked disjointed as you would expect from a first preseason game. They played defensively sound even though they were on the their heels in the 1st. They slowly turned it around in the 2nd and third and hemmed CBJ in their end for good periods at a time. Not bad considering ....

We still have a team??

But they play bigger then they are and they are very physical. They do not get pushed around and are not afraid to give their own bodies up. You are right, size is kinda relative, but physicality is not. We have a team with way too many purse swingers!!

Ok, going to try and use a bit of optimism. Dahls and Byram were one of the top 10 defensive pairings when they were together last year 5 on 5. They were top 5 in most advanced statistics! If Timmons and Kesselring improve over their replacements, our defense could be a plus for this team. We know the Sabres can score. Even with JJ gone, those goals could be made up with the current team as is. I think we are sneakily a better team based on the moves that were made and KEEPING Byram. The question is can they keep up with the rest and make the playoffs with what they have. I truly believe they can if the defense plays to its potential. Dahlin and Byram make the goalie play a lot better when they are on the ice. If the other 2 pairings can do that i think our netminding is better this year!

I have to say, i do not disagree with you here. We were a good offence last year. Only JJP out and we will have a full year of Norris. If our defense and goaltending was not a sieve last year, they would have been someone better. IF this team actually forechecks and plays a more physical defense and not allow other teams to just walk in our zone with just a stick check, there is a possibility it may not be that bad. The players we brought in is really what this team needed outside of more scoring. Trying to stay somewhat positive and not be miserable.

I think he has a higher upside then that but has never had that chance to really prove himself in the big club!

Typical KA say. We are not moving him. His return right now would get him lynched if he pulled the trigger. Just keep him, sign him to a 1 or 2 year deal and move on. It is what it is. Another season of no playoffs.

But that would mean spending to the CAP!!! LOL
