Going to tonight's game - excited to see our Sabres team that have played relatively well over the last week plus. Hopefully Kane coming back will provide more scoring depth, but i'm worried he is rushing back and may have potential for re-injury.

 

Go Sabres!

 

He'll be battling those ribs for the rest of the season.  Ribs don't heal, you just get used to the pain.

Go Sabres!

 

My concern with Kane returning is that they seem to play better without him in the lineup.

I cracked three ribs and felt fine in a couple months.

 

Cocaine is a local anesthetic.... "local".

 

I picture in my head Kane rubbing an 8-ball up and down his side before he hits the ice.

I am amazed at how cheap seats were for the game.... I know we haven't proved anything,and we're missing eichel, but 22 dollars for lower bowl seats on the blue line is just absurd. Hard to turn down.

 

Who here had recently posted about the incredibly depressed value of other NHL franchises' seat tickets on the secondary market(s)? 

 

I'm not going to use the word 'bubble,' but it seems like a correction is ongoing. Once the secondary market weakens, STH renewals may diminish as well (since re-sales (of valuable tickets) were generally a reliable means of offsetting the procurement cost).

I know. :bag:

 

I have 4 tickets I bought for friends at the beginning of the year for next Thursday's game at STH prices, and the friends we bought the tickets for bailed. I can't find anyone that wants to go to the game with us paying anywhere close to what we bought them for. Ended up planning on taking my wife's family for free and taking a bath on the ticket costs. Super annoying.

Our coach is a offense stifling moron. Sam Reinhart is playing like garbage. Our defense is barely treading water. Matt Moulson had dropped back to exactly where he should be... exposed in the expansion.  Tyler Ennis is like Afinogenov 2.0 but not has good. Marcus Foligno has played great but most hate him for some unknown reason but hey let's make excuses for Zemgus because that guy has been just so good... or not. 

 

The truth is that this team is better. They are still another year away from the playoffs. They are 3-4 years away from being serious contenders. Guys like Cliff Pu and Victor Olofsson and Alex Nylander still haven't had time to swell the ranks and provide speed, skill, and more importantly scoring. Until then, the Sabres will continue to tread water with a coach who's idea of offense is saying a bad word at the dinner table on accident. 

 

Will we win tonight? Sure maybe but that is more a reflection of how bad Ottawa is than how far we have come. Thank god Jack Eichel will be back next month because we need some actual offense. 

 

PS. ROR and Okposo are awesome.

 

  

If ROR is out does that make Samsonite our #1 Center?

I hope not, cause he's playing like GARBAGE now according to LGR4GM. GARBAGE! The (unintentional) hyperbole grows!
