Andrew Amerk Posted October 25, 2018 Report Share Posted October 25, 2018 I wonder how many STH’s sold their tix to Habs fans for profit after those Sabres two road losses. Would be nice to see a barn of mostly Buffalo fans for a Habs game for once. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mustache of God Posted October 25, 2018 Report Share Posted October 25, 2018 The feeling deep in my plums tells me Casey gets a goal tonight. I'm also hoping to see some more consistent offensive magic from Dahlin but I understand I need to be patient on him. Can the Sabres make it 3 in a row? In the past the team lacked the gumption to play consistent hockey for multiple games, is this team different? Will Housley dropping F-Bombs in practice motivate them to find that next gear and actually show up in the first period? I'm shocked the Canadian have gotten off to such a hot start, all the Canadian teams for that matter are exceeding where I thought they'd be (save Edmonton, losers). I thought Van, Ott, and Mon would be licking the floor of the basement but ~1/8th of the season in and that's not the case. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Send him down to Rochester and put him on a wing opposite Nylander and tell them to make it work there so they can make it work in Buffalo. 6 minutes ago, WildCard said: Question is is who comes up? Guessing CJ Smith Does the team NEED to have 23 on the roster? When is Scott Wilson due back? edit: i googled it, he broke he needed ankle surgery and is expected to be out 8-10 weeks, so sometime in December.

LTS Posted October 25, 2018 Report Share Posted October 25, 2018 I am hoping that once I get home there will be a reason to keep watching... A win would be huge... (I feel like any win is huge over the past few years). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After a successful western swing, there are rumblings that the Sabres might actually be a decent team. We don't know whether to believe it. The team probably is trying to figure that out at the moment. BUT, at some point, the rebuild starts to bear fruit. Are we at that point? If so, all the past history from the tank years will become irrelevant. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Sabres have turned over 90% of their roster the last 3 seasons. It's just nonsense. 22 minutes ago, Huckleberry said: That and pink used to be a manly colour, somehow feminists changed that ?
