darksabre Posted December 24, 2016 Report Share Posted December 24, 2016 Good buy. Still play mine and I got it a good while ago. We got the special black Friday ones that were super cheap. Playing some Pokemon :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
7+6=13 Posted December 24, 2016 Report Share Posted December 24, 2016 Eichel has been extremely irresponsible with the puck the last several games. It's like he doesn't take the possession seriously enough or something. Haphazardly gives the puck away trying to be too complicated with his stick moves.

Nitro60 Posted December 24, 2016 Report Share Posted December 24, 2016 Would you buy into the system if you have a bunch of offensively talented players and your system is to try and out-defense teams to win games 1-0? Bylsma has to go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taro T Posted December 24, 2016 Report Share Posted December 24, 2016 At least we finally got a look at theGirgs, Jack Samson line we've wanted all year. I'd prefer Okposo & Reinhart swapped. But Girgensons, Eichel, & Reinhart is the best linemates that DB has given Jack this year. Baby steps. 2016 can't end soon enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randall Flagg Posted December 24, 2016 Report Share Posted December 24, 2016 One goal or less in 17 of 33 games so far. 9 regulation victories in 33 tries. 12 victories overall in 33 tries. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Someone wrote an article recently that showed the actual number of Sabre picks that made it to the NHL, and what I read didn't encourage me at all. It's hard to imagine the Sabres making it into the playoffs in the next couple of years. Albert Einstein "doing the same thing over and over expecting a different result".

Randall Flagg Posted December 24, 2016 Report Share Posted December 24, 2016 He has drafted good talent. The coaching is subpar. He picked Bylsma after an interview in which he liked what Bylsma said he was going to do though, didn't he? We lost a lot of assets. I'm not thrilled with his time here so far. There's not much of anything to show. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robviously Posted December 24, 2016 Report Share Posted December 24, 2016 He has drafted good talent. The coaching is subpar.Jury still out on the last 2 drafts but the 2014 one doesn't seem too great. He's made one good trade (ROR) and a bunch of underwhelming ones. Signed one good player (Okposo). That's his entire 2+ years as GM. And we're still a bottom 5 team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prior to Murray, Reiger was feast and famine. Murray has two drafts with 25 picks. Lemieux was a bad pick since he did not want to play for the Sabres. At least Murray got some thing for him in trade. He picked Bylsma after an interview in which he liked what Bylsma said he was going to do though, didn't he? We lost a lot of assets. I'm not thrilled with his time here so far. There's not much of anything to show. Assets? Dropped guys who did not mind losing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CallawaySabres Posted December 24, 2016 Report Share Posted December 24, 2016 Tonight is the first game where I hope they get slaughtered. Rex is not the problem for the Bills, Bylsma on the other hand has somehow smothered the talent. Looks like this happened.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What good is it to have a bunch of draft picks if the draft pool is weak. Have the Sabres ever had a chance to get truly talented #1 first round pick. The year the Sabres should have been a great position to get that #1 pick and the league changes the rules.

Hard to see but the 2014 draft will be a good one. I expect these guys to make it to Rochester next year and push to make the club in 2018. Watch Victor Olofsson. He is a good goal scorer for Modo in the Swedish Hockey League. I hope that the signs with the Sabres when his contract is up in 2018.

Lemieux was a bad pick since he did not want to play for the Sabres. At least Murray got some thing for him in trade. Assets? Dropped guys who did not mind losing. We've given up two firsts, two seconds, Zads and Grigs, and a handful of prospects for three regular players, one of which is awful, another who gets in trouble off of the ice and injured on it. A third for this coach. I'm not saying that I want all of those things back and that they'd be helping us right now. But any way you slice it, the net asset management has not been good, and we sit in a terrible spot with his players and his coach, and look the same whether healthy or injured. Tim doesn't look good right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
