Good lord, what'd Skinner do to deserve that?

Whatever do you mean? This lineup is proof that FXGMJB won the O'Reilly trade. We traded a second line center in O'Reilly and not only did we get back a 1st and 2nd round pick, but we also got wunderkind Tage Thompson and 1ST LINE CENTER Vladimir Sobotka! Trade officially won.

I take back everything bad I ever said about him.

Sobotka has outperformed yesterday’s first line centre Casey Mittelstadt recently so I’m not getting too worked up about it. Reality is we have a third line centre and three fourth line centres on the roster right now.

And that third line is a really the fourth line.

I like the "idea" of that 3rd line but it'll probably be a disaster.

The Girgenson / Eichel D pairing is something I never knew I needed in my life.

This late in the season and Big Z is a healthy scratch? No way he comes back next year, right? I feel the same way about Larsson. They've been here too long and mucked through all the ***** and they'll never get that stink off.

So it's now painfully obvious that Phil is trying to get the Sabres to fire him?

Eh.  Maybe he's already been told, similar to the way DD was told:  X amount of improvement in the standings is required, and he knows the team is going to fall short.  So he no longer has any ****s to give.  Maybe JBot told him to tank the rest of the way and will get a severance bonus based on draft position.  Then JBot can hire a new coach and we'll have a different room next year.
