And not as a top 6 forward if he's headed for a playoff team however!

Yeah one of our "Top 6". ......right😉

Well definitely not a true first liners anyway. He just keeps on proving it.....as do the rest of the forwards.

And people believe these guys are first liners! Proof is in the pudding! Sorry I ain't buying what Adams is selling. Touch and Thompson are nice guys a good hockey players that do belong in the league...just not first liners BY THEMSELVES!! Might work if they had better players besides them.

By the way, second straight game were halfway through first period and less than 3 shots...no fire power...no consistency from top line!

Hate to break the news to you, but we're more than one top 6 player short. At minimum two, I count three. The only top liner is Tage on a good night.

I stand corrected! Thanks! I think I got the emoji right though!😉

And "The Tank" as well. Former GM Darcy Regier warned, and I quote, "There will be pain...." 😩

Too bad "the room" is the hospital operating room Terry! 😷

They don't rely on their top players having "career " seasons year after year. Plus they have a legit top line with playmaking skills than can cover up for missing lower talent. More depth helps too.

Amen brother!! Thompson can play center on my playoff team any day....on the second line. I've said for several years now, the Buffalo Sabres DO NOT have a legit first line. They are great line 2 and 3 line team with LOTS of depth, but don't have ANY consistent line 1 play. Check all other Eastern conferences playoff teams....look at their top lines.

Will say it again....they don't have a playoff top line. Look at all the play off teams last year from the east. Look at their top line. They can make things happen. We have a glut of second and third line players. As far as dynamic, you've got Tage on a good night. People want to disagree but that's why they are offensively inconsistent. Too many instances of tonight....chances go to waste. Denial ain't working.

Absolutely loved the Whalers goal song. Classic. Bring back the Sabre Dance please!!!!🙏

Is it just me or does this squad look slow?

Power loafing around out there on the PP.

Yeah, there is NO play by play...just two bone heads yaking. Oh how I miss RJ.

Tallest to shortest in front of a brick wall! 🧱

I think a better, more appropriate question in this point in time is, NOT are they a better team BUT, are they a playoff team. This team could be a lot better than last year AND still miss the playoffs!! My opinion is there is A LOT of work to do for serious playoff contention. The issue is the word SERIOUS when discussing this franchise's brass.🤨

Hey, my first car was a Chevette!!! Told everyone I drove a "Vette"!!!

Better be one heck of a player....someone who doesn't care about palm trees!!!

Boy, all these teams have a lot of set plays and know what and where each other is at on the ice. It's like they have responsibilities! ....as opposed to pond hockey, run and gun. and done! Wow!
