Carmel Corn

IMHO - if I can only listen (vs. watch) a game, with Rick I can easily picture the play in my mind just based on his words. I'm sorry that I can't say the same with Dan D. I'm sure he's a good guy, but without a television, I cannot follow the play at all listening to him.

I'd like to see this team address the goaltending concern before I would call them "good". They've moved from bad to "fair" and improving no doubt.

We are thin on the LHD side...McCabe provides some intangibles plus what happens if Dahlin, Bryson or even Samuelsson gets hurt? I really don't want to see Irwin on the future roster.

Perhaps, but I look at the what they've done in the last year across their entire organization. Sure, they spent a wad to hire Ralph, but that was in another time. Look at what they've done in terms of downsizing their organization in terms of scouting, minor hockey coaching, and even GMKA himself as a cheap hire. IMHO - they have cut costs and put the future success of the organization at risk. I will concede this week's hire of the associate GM, but I'm not convinced they're not watching their $'s. https://buffalonews.com/sports/sabres/whos-gone-sabres-purge-totals-22/article_f9529eb2-a6a7-5aba-9377-48729563c085.html

Regardless of whether he deserves it or not, I gotta think the Pegulas will strongly consider him for $ reasons. He'll be cheaper than a seasoned established HC and since he still has to pay Ralph another year, they'll be happy to justify Donny as the next HC going forward.

I gotta think that Risto enjoys playing with another "banger" next to him....hell, if Mattias becomes a regular partner, Risto might come back. I still remember him playing with Zadorov in his younger days and I really liked it!

It may not be a great thing...but a soft goal against when it doesn't matter is easy to shrug off when you win.

Let's get Sam his hattie on this PP!

Well, we don't want the kid's to get cocky now, right? 😉

Wow, if this team can get the PP going again, look out Boston!!!

Great shift by Tage....puck possession and going to the net...could have drawn a legit cross check.

Hard to figure out who's worse....Krueger as a coach or Eakin as a player.

Tokarski is growing on me.

Getting a little too cute with the passing in our own zone....

Sh!t my bad....outta sight, outta mind!

I would have thought they should have given him #28 like his dad.

Early PP, that's a change from yesterday!

Great goal...even better while Sid was on the ice!

His hot lap speed looks faster than Irwin's full speed! 😉

It depends on Linus. I think Buffalo will make a "reasonable" offer, but I think he'll still test the market (even with his injury history). Adams should be looking for two.

Two please....double the pleasure, double the fun.

In terms of who we could have selected otherwise, I say Zegras. He was tremendous at the world juniors...but I know that can be misleading. His game is different than Cozens, but IMHO he is highly skilled offensively.

I'm getting tired of hearing how "wonderful" Sidney is......would love to see someone on the Sabres lay him out (with a legal hit of course)....then again the refs would call a penalty if anybody breathes on him.

His line is not standing out today for sure, they need a spark.

Yep...can't be soft with the puck in your own zone.
