GDT Buffalo at Tampa Bay 4/6/18 7:30 PM MSG WGR

[darksabre]

Nylander with Reino and O'Reilly is intriguing.

That top line is nauseating

We deserve to have Jack force a trade.

[North Buffalo]

Oloffson and CJ Smith can help that next year hopefully if Sabres dont get Dahlin, but agree!

Well that is a new one for starting a GDT and it was nicely done.

 

Can only go up from the bottom unless you repeat which I cannot fathom happening. Changes will be made and welcome. 

 

I want to see how we stack up against one of the top teams fighting for the top spot.

 

Truth be told I would rather Tampa gets the 1st seed than Boston but we will see if they are looking past Bflo or tuning up for the Playoffs.

 

Lets Go Buffalo.

I’d expect nothing different from this head coach. Split up Eichel, Middlestadt and Nylander. BRILLIANCE. I can’t believe Housley isn’t nominated for the Jack Adams award this year.

We deserve to have Jack force a trade.

Luckily Jack will outlast Housley. Hopefully we will have a head coach that knows what he’s doing one of these days. Putting lines together should be the LEAST of a coaches struggles.

[JohnRobertEichel]

I'm not defending Housley's line choices. But it's clear he wants Mittelstadt evaluated as a center and Nylander evaluated at his most comfortable position of left wing on a much slower skating line than Jack's.

 

The Sabres actually look pretty good on defense if you put Risto on a second line with Scandella, Guhle on a third line with Nelson, imagine Karlsson and Dahlin wearing Sabres jerseys on a first line, force Gorges into retirement, demote Falk and Tennyson to Rochester, and lose Beauileieuauau at the airport.

[WildCard]

It's not even like these lines matter. We've seen that Housley will pretty much flip all of them by midway through the 1st anyways

[Rasmus_]

The Sabres opened, and closed like a bad hand of poker.  7-2 off suit.  Crushed by the inside straight of the TBL.  This just in:  Zach Bogosian named captain of the ECHL franchise where he will stay for eternity!  Jordan Nolan, retires to go play pro with Daddy in Poland.  Lastly, the Sabres walk up to the podium tripping up their speech selecting Raymond Bourque with the first selection in the draft.  Another year another sound bite.  Bring it on!  Go Sabres!

Johnson, Ullmark & Wilcox the goalies

 

 

Why do we even have a fourth line?

[Tondas]

The Sabres to me are like family.  I've been with them for 48 years.  I can poke fun at them, but nobody outside the family can.  Also, this season, the Sabres are still more successful than a number of my siblings. ;)

[Sabres Fan in NS]

Very nice start, LTS.

 

MUST WIN!!

 

GO SABRES!!

[Derrico]

I was just coming on here to post 'must win.' Damn you NS!

[DarthEbriate]

NHL players association. Always wanting as many players on a team as they can get.

 

It's like in baseball... shorten your pitching staff so you can get your best out there more often (whether it's the starters approach or the new all-bullpen-all-the-time approach). Why have a fifth-wheel starting pitcher who burns your bullpen if you can just have a four-pitcher rotation. If you're worried about injuries, give 'em more drugs bacta.

:flirt:

 

They all are must wins.

 

:beer:

[dudacek]

Lucky Alex

Kyle has been Jacks best match and Wilson is safe and has the speed to keep up.

Poor Casey.

 

And, why the hell not?

 

 

 

Please stick around LTS.

Love me some Sabres.

[Mustache of God]

Switch Baptiste and Pominville and I'd be more interested.

 

These last 2 games should have the 4th line composed of players that need to be phased out, not our youth.

 

Can't watch tonight b/c I have tickets to an underwater puppet show but will be interested so see how they do.

 

GO SABRES. ICE THE LIGHTNING!

[Taro T]

Off to poker.

 

Will most likely watch this debacle later tonight. Yea? :unsure:

[Beer]

Go Sabres!

What season did you just watch, Rob?

It's funny because his numbers out of context make him look perfectly fine. But trying to remember what he's actually contributed is nearly impossible. Poor Pommers :lol:

You should tell your friend that it’s snowing like a moron at home and that he should appreciate S Florida while he’s there and not waste his time with another crappy Sabres game.

Great point. I've been chasing my 3 year old furiously for the last 5 days. I needed a break.
