  1. Well, he's getting an interview.
  2. Would you prefer he stood pat and brought them all back? I think that's what threw us off.
  3. Those first four were definitely non-permanent, transitional players.
  4. ...although I don't think Kozak is a bad option. I thought he acquitted himself well on his limited NHL time last season.
  5. Those three were exactly what they were expected to be. They were filling spots left by departures of the previous 4th line, allowing the Sabres to not have to pull prospects out of Rochester and let them develop. They were never intended to be long term members of the team. For as much as people like to bag on them, it was better to have them it was better than having a line of 3 kids trying to learn to play shut down minutes on the fly.
  6. Exactly the way I see it. He was a Star Trek Red Shirt- expendable.
  7. 30 miles north of Buffalo is Lake Ontario. (Just going all pedantic on you, I know it's about 30 miles away, and mostly north.)
  8. Yep. With my new car. I think they just use those pics around the showroom.
  9. Apparently it can only be used as a noun.
  10. You can say ass here.
  11. McLeod is okay too. And frankly I don't have a problem with the 4th liners he brought in. They were expendable and got dropped as appropriate. I don't think our 4th line was the problem. That's the least of our problems.
  12. I don't think it's unreasonable. They've all showed signs of being better players than they were last season. The question is: Who are they really? Are they the Better Players they've shown signs of in the past, or the One Step Back players we saw last season? Was last year their collective sophomore slump and they'll bounce back this year? Will some of them do so? Which ones won't?
  13. They are going to say how much they "value" each of their players until they move them. I expect a major move or two, possibly someone who is under the radar at the moment.
  14. So much demand that when the Fort Worth NLL club stopped operations last year, no other city was interested in buying a team that was established and had made playoffs the last two seasons. They just folded. The Bandits are a unicorn that they have a good team in a big league city arena and little to no competition for fans during their season (since the Sabres suck hard ballz). Rochester is a more typical city for the league and if they can't support an NLL club, why would another city want to jump on that?
  15. ....and
  16. For me not so much hate, just disappointment.
  17. They're an easy team to root for. They play the game right.
  18. Other: This is my team and it's bound to get better at some point. Right?
