Are you kidding me? Were you living under a rock during the win streak last year? Even the most pessimistic amongst us want a bandwagon to jump on! That win streak was so much fun. I hope we get to have some communal joy like that again this year. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SabresBaltimore Posted October 3, 2019 Report Share Posted October 3, 2019 (edited) I think we have a slightly better roster from last year. I'm hoping we have a better coach, but need some time on this. There is still some dead weight we need to get rid of, but I don't know if we'd be better off just cutting them and playing some young unproven guys or just hoping they don't bring us down too much until we can get some more depth. Only 1 year left on a bunch of contracts I want to be rid of. I can't see the roster moves from Twitter posted earlier, but I hope/assume one of them was bring Olofsson and possibly Jokiharju back up from Rochester? I also like the addition of Johansson as a winger. As a center..not as much. So we'll see how that goes. Regardless of our opening day roster, it's a new season so I'm going to choose to be excited and hopeful. And if that proves to be wrong, it'll be cheaper to buy tickets to the games I plan on going to later this season. Let's Go Buf-fa-lo!

triumph_communes Posted October 3, 2019 Report Share Posted October 3, 2019 Will they not dress? My main concern is that 3rd pairing, which is a placeholder for 2 injuries. Sobotka on the 2nd line will have a magnifying glass by most. Miller has been impressive, but Crosby and Malkin are true tests for them they won't have it easy. Curious to see how much that 3rd line shows up tonight. It's three players who are streaky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mustache of God Posted October 3, 2019 Report Share Posted October 3, 2019 I know it's been coming, but seeing Sobotka on the 2nd line just kills any confidence going into the season. This is a very dark "X" on JBOT. I'm hoping Freddy sees something in him that we all don't. Sobotka's play is going to be under a microscope by the fan base.

miles Posted October 3, 2019 Report Share Posted October 3, 2019 I'm really looking forward to the season. I truly like the team this year. I think Kruger is going to do a good job and I really enjoy the press conference he has done 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
