Mike Weber is a terrible NHL defenseman. He will not be in the NHL next year, guaranteed. I like him tho, he's a straight up guy, works hard, etc... but the NHL is just too fast for him. He late on his reads, late picking up sticks and getting in passing lanes. God bless him, but he's not NHL caliber. HE WAS A -29 last year people!

not impressed. i have a 10 year old playing AA and this kid would get demolished (even tho they can't check until bantam it's still very physical). -
If NYI finish in 9th worse or lower, those chances will increase to 25% or more.
-
bottom 8 + NYI

just fyi, Jack Eichel's 5th ranked BU Terriers will be playing Noah Hanifin's 3rd ranked BC Eagles live on NBCSN this Friday 5pm ET. also, this was a nice goal recently by McDavid: eichel goal: nicely done sabres highlight reel:
-
So much pessimism here. If they finish DFL, they have the best chance of getting McDavid than any other team in the league. Or they finish 2nd from last and they could still win the lottery, or even 3rd or 4th last and still get McDavid. Also, Eichel or McDavid are not gonna turn this franchise around on their own... it's more about the supporting cast. For all we know Reinhart might have a better career than both of them. Bottom line is the Sabres are bad and they will be bad for a few more seasons no matter who they draft. What's important is they draft wisely and develop them the right way. The collective "woe is me" attitude of "just because we're Buffalo" is an embarrassment to the city and those of us who grew up there.

Indeed. Buffalo is in full control of their destiny. I would love to be a fly on the wall in the locker room after games or when Nolan and Murray have their daily chat. What can you possibly say to a team that is simply out classed no matter how hard they play? and what does Nolan and Murray talk about? This is history in the making folks. Buffalo is on pace to score <90 goals this season. That's 40 goals less than the all time record! Their top scorer might get 40 points. On pace to be shutout 35 times breaking the record of 16 by 19 games.
-
7 points for Nov. tough schedule... MON 3 times, PIT 2 times, DET, STL, MIN. They might get points vs EDM, WAS, and WIN, and then maybe push a couple to OT.

Juniors is perfect for an 18-19 year old. The AHL is for grown men, if they start adding these undersized kids to the AHL, you're going to see the number of injuries go up. It's a very physical league played by strong men, not kids. Once the kid starts to get some man strength at 20-21, they yeah, send him to the AHL.
-
...so do any Sabres make the team? Or does the league intentionally snub them? Ennis maybe?
-
was looking at Carolina's schedule..... They've played their previous 5 games on the road. 6 of their first 8 games have been on the road. They finish the season with 15 games in March, 11 of them at home.... could see them plummet down the CHL standings late in the year. To compare, BUF will play 13 games in March only 4 of those at home.
-
With Staal back in the lineup they outshot VAN 30-25 a couple nights ago, but still won. Their shots for/against pct ranks 18th in the NHL... http://stats.hockeya...CT&sortdir=DESC CAR is primed to rack up some loses here as Buffalo runs away with the CHL.
-
maybe VAN will give us Kassian back for Hodgson? Hodgson is an integral part of the tank, a -7 through 10 games, on pace to finish with a -60. noice

Myers is playing great. He plays almost 30min a game and is only a -1 on team that's collectively a -22. On the otherhand, Mezaros is already a -10 in 9 games. WTF is he doing here? He's on pace to finish -90. -
At what point does TM fire Nolan? Or does he get a pay raise?
-
Carolina is a much worse team than Buffalo. They just have had a lot of puck luck early in the season and with Staal back they'll be even worse going forward. They outshot Van tonight and their last game. They'll string a couple loses together here soon as Buffalo stakes its claim to CHL dominance.
-
I'm calling a 37-2 Ducks victory tonight. 85 shots on goal in the first period.
-
Apparently Benoit, Mezaros and Weber have earned ice time. Replace those 3 with McCabe, Pysyk and Zadorov... instant upgrade, but we don't want that. Keep the tank rolling in the right direction.
-
This is the best team I've seen in the CHL in the last 10 years. I would be shocked if we didn't witness a wire to wire championship season out of this glorious group of sucktards.
-
After perusing this thread I've come to a single logical conclusion... and that is he needs to stay in the NHL and play. Next season they can send him to Rochester if he still needs polish. Nolan says they've been working him hard in practice to point where he's getting mad because of all the conditioning drills they're putting him through. I would expect to see him play at some point on this road trip... wether that's due to injury or suckitude, we'll see him play here soon.

The Golden Sieve is awarded annually to the Carrion Hockey League's (CHL) goaltender who is "adjudged to be the best at this position".[1] At the end of each season, the thirty CHL general managers vote to determine the winner. It is named in honour of Georges Sieve, who died in 1926 of tuberculosis. The Trophy was first awarded after the 1926–27 CHL season and was awarded to the top goaltender.

everything he said isn't untrue

the lady bung golden sieve
-
Don't forget that Benoit and Mezaros are on 1 year deals. If Mezaros can turn his game round TM could get a nice return for him at the deadline.

Who is the goalie when this team makes a run?
