This team reminds me of the cheer our intramural D-league hockey team used in college: "Who we gonna beat? WE ARE!"
It makes no sense. Just like this year's Sabres.
-
Through 3 games, the only guys I see giving it their all on every shift have been Ennis, Weber and Deslauriers. That ain't gonna win many games (in our case none).
What about Girgs?
While we're ranting, can we get some mean defensemen. I'm getting to the point where I'd be alright with Myers going. I'm enamored with his skating for a big man, but if the mean streak isn't there, I don't see him being what we need.
Simple. Knock 'im in the nuts before the game. Seemed to get his dander up the other night.
This was brilliant, well played.
Thanks. At least someone noticed....
I swear, BFLO fans would bitch about how they got paid if they won the lottery.
You understand the true Buffalo mindset.
We know they weren't gonna be good but not this bad. We wanted to see improvement but still lose close games. But how can you say they are better when they are getting badly outshot every game. It's okay to lose as long as you play hard and your competitive but not okay when you are not working and getting outshot big time. This team right now looks worse than last year and I thought they would be somewhat better.
Two out of the first three games were tied at the second intermission. Those are close games. The fact that they got away in the third is simply the fulfillment of "still lose close games."
Yes, I want the team to look better, but they're hanging in there. The year the local high school won the Texas state championship, they lost an early game 63-0. It is way too early to write off this season as a wasted one. The body of work so far isn't so good, but the season has just started. Basically, the Sabres are an expansion team right now. You can't expect miracles and team chemistry and stuff right out of the gate.

Just win one.
At least one.
At least a tie?
-
Here is a thought... what if Tim Murray doesn't know what the hell he is going? ;)
I personally don't think that is the case, but just thought I'd throw it out there...
Sure, he wins the individual trades, but he doesn't know how to put a team together...
-
Sabres are treating this like a pick up game.
What better way to pick up McDavid?
-
Ugh. Another blowout.
-
I think we need to bolster the scoring. BRING ME JOHN SCOTT.
-
Outshot 36 to 7 over the past 2 periods. Oof.
...and people say we don't have goaltending.....
-
Well who are you going to put there then ? are they having tryouts ? i'll come over if they do :blink:
Let the kid grow on the job.
I only mentioned the "Kyle Orton era" because I saw it in a headline after the Detroit game. Era. Like, as in, a long time. Orton is never going to be anything but a stop-gap.
-
Well, the Kyle Orton era is over.
-
Gawd what a terrible period.
In the first two games, the Sabres have played their opponents even. Come the third period, they have 0 goals, opponents have 6. So far.
-
Absolutely amazing how much space the Sabres have given the Hawks this period. That goal was a perfect example.
-
We're still better off shorthanded...
Myers is all over that.
-
Sabres look like their legs are made of lead this period.
-
Too soon. Kid's gonna be great. Don't push him too much, too early.
I can't say I agree. He's been cool under every pressure he's been subjected to. I think he'd be fine with a captaincy.
-
I can't think of any reason why Girgensons doesn't have a C or at least an A. Last season, and so far this season, he leads by example on the ice, every shift, however he can.
-
Pretty much. The first minute of his dialog describes the version I've got, and how I feel about it.
-
I'll warn you though... make sure you get a turbo unless fuel economy is key. My 500 has the basic engine and while I like the mileage, it is pretty gutless. It wouldn't be any fun at all with an automatic.
-
It depends how drunk I am when I get in to drive.
If you mean you have some kinda autostick, you have an automatic. Stop pretending.
Those who profess to love manual transmissions are those who don't have to sit in rush hour commutes in places like DC, NYC, LA, Philly, etc. Automatic is practically required for crowded big cities these days.
I just got back from a trip to Bristol, England, and Rome, Italy. Crazy traffic. Everyone drives manuals.
As for my car... stick.

It probably just means they were As in previous games (i.e., they are game-worn jerseys).
-
I bet Cody Mac starts at Rochacha and moves up after Reinhart's 9 games. I think if you send Grigo down now you take away from the off- and pre-season efforts he put in.
-
By the way- listened to the game here in Rome (Italy, not NY) on WGR on my phone. How cool is that?
-
Anyone who thinks Orton was a bad move.... Eh. Maybe not a brilliant move, but least now we have a guy who doesn't fall apart after a pick-six.

Amaretto. In its birthplace, Italy.
Zadorov?

Think about that for a minute.... getting waived by the worst team in hockey....
