  1. Wouldn't it be nice if KO's contract had the same amount of term left as Sobotka's. Still hard to swallow the fact we're stuck with both of them next year and KO for a while beyond even that.
  2. Perhaps, but expect Beaulieu to get moved. Maybe a Bob Corkum 'ish type of year.
  3. Smaller players like Sheary and Pilut getting run over. Imagine playing a 7 game playoff series against this team. We're too small and weak.
  4. You and I have a much different memory of Housley. Offensively talented for sure, but played as soft as a baby's bottom. He had the benefit of other players who helped create space for him and/or enabled him to generate strong offensive numbers.
  5. Sometimes a team can be a reflection of their coach. We all know how HCPH played as a player and I think our team reflects his soft play and defensive liabilities. Compare that to the last game with the Canes (Rob B. HC), who played a complete 200ft game with tenacity...The Canes reflected his style as a player.
  6. Also count how many of his shots are blocked due to a slow motion windup....that's one so far!
  7. Thompson is sitting, but he at least will pull the trigger. I'd like to see CM get chewed out by the coach for passing.
  8. Maybe Eichel and Ulmark went to Taco Bell for their pregame meal. Maybe the worst games I've seen for both of them tonight.
  9. I don't recall either....but he did tangle with O"Reilly at some point....whether that game or another one. I'd like to think that having both James and Larry Playfair in the lineup the same time would cause the other team to maybe behave themselves just a little bit.
  10. Pizza absolutely. Wings, Beef on Weck, Subs.....all substandard or non-existent in my neck of the woods. Good thing I don't still live in WNY or else I weigh 300 lbs.
  11. Yes, there are some, but I was thinking more along the fast food variety. Located in the Midwest, which tends to favor chains vs. mom & pop places. Miss the WNY cuisine including Mighty Taco. Not sensing much love for Mighty here tonight, but I do love going there when I am back in town.
  12. Those of you in WNY are fortunate to have Mighty Taco....I'm stuck in another state where Taco Bell is about the only option around. Would love to have an El Nino right now.
  13. Watching the Sabres in the second period causes me plenty of stress and frustration, please let's not make it any worse by adding politics to the mix. Kind of like pouring gasoline on a blazing fire :)
  14. Val James is in the building....maybe he could win a fight for the Sabres still....he could probably still kick the butts of just about anybody on the Sabres roster right now!
  15. I would not mind Michael Ferland sticking around after the game and wearing blue & gold.
  16. It may not be all Housley's fault, but can we agree he needs to be held more accountable and should not get a free pass. I hold him accountable for such things as: 1. Struggling powerplay (that was better before he arrived) 2. Poor 2nd period play (which suggests to me that opposing coaches are making adjustments while the Sabres are not) 3. Giving up quick goals after we score (our team seems unprepared to play defense after we score) I'll stop there as far as my complaints. The streak was fun, but I would like to think enough people here understood it was an anomaly that was made possible by some opportunistic goal scoring and steadier goaltending. It's a long season and even the best teams go through ups and downs.
