They got ONE now (SOG)!

Puck movement is too slow on the PP….good possession time, but too easy for CBJ to react

One thing I think they don’t do or have done is much in the way of maximum term contracts. Some of their guys are signed for maybe another 3 or 4 years, but I don’t think they have much of anything in terms of 7 or 8 year deals.

CBJ seem to have a couple of good U of Michigan sharpshooters in Johnson and Fantilli.

Wicked backhand there by Johnson

Yes…..on the other hand I believe Lafferty was a healthy scratch (again) tonight

SOG’s 11 to 5 in favor of the CBJ

If he got a bridge deal, how many more years before he becomes a UFA?

More SOG’s please…..the BJ’s are not very healthy, but you wouldn’t know it based on the quality of play so far. EDIT - nice shot by Byram!

He’s our big fish in a small pond (so to speak)…a guppy trying to act like a piranha

Larry Playfair???

Penalty wise, it’s a good trade-off having Olivier off vs. Gilbert in terms of impact.

So Muel, TNT and UPL all hurt….i am completely shocked, thought they were all iron men 😄

Muel ruled out with a LBI…..must have lost his nuts somewhere against the devils.

A beard would also be good for TNT, Cozens, Quinn, JJP, Power, etc. At least try to create the illusion that you have more age and grit than a 6 year old birthday party.

Somebody more talented than me should create another rafter banner that says “Youngest team in the league for 14 years”

GMKA is hoping for another strong finish so that maybe the fans won’t demand his firing…..funny thing is, he ain’t getting fired anyway because of his dad Terry Pegula loves him.

Send Cozens for Mitts???

Simple, play your other NHL players who are already on the roster (ex. Lafferty) for tomorrow night. Otherwise call up NAK if you need somebody from Rochester. If you want to give Rosen a look, do it for the next game.

Typically stupidity by the Sabres organization to deprive the kid of a chance to enjoy the all-star experience. I remember hating the pick from GMKA (thought it was a reach), but I hope Rosen proves me wrong.

This should have been an expectation already.....they're old enough to be doing serious strength training and should have been already. IMHO - the Buffalo Sabres country club atmosphere probably emphasized lowering their golf handicap and working on their tan lines during the off-season....instead of serious strength building and conditioning. Seems like this is yet another area of no accountability by the players and the organization.....ridiculous!

IMHO - the lack of a backbone is not a new problem for this franchise. It’s been an issue for maybe decades now. In the Pegula era, we’ve never had a team with a “pack” mentality to aggressively protect their fellow teammates. GM failures JBOT and Howdy Doody Adams have acquired/drafted mostly soft players vs. those who have an edge or play a hard-nosed style naturally (one exception is Zack Benson). Yesterday’s win was not worth the additional damage to the team’s culture, which is already badly infected with failure and weakness.

After hearing the team’s post game responses, my statement to them is that culture is more important than a win today. No response to the hit means our culture sucks.

Forgot to say….this team is still a bunch of weak, cowardly chicken $hits who don’t stick up for their teammates….maybe the thing I dislike most about the Sabres.

Hope TNT is okay….he may miss some games….maybe most of February with the 4 country event.
