Because some people come here for the most important reasons.....1) they're a fan of the team and 2) to see if they win...with #2 being the most relevant stat of all. Just saying.

The hell are you here for if it should be left to the pros? You're penalizing the Sabres for scoring two power plays goals and one shorthanded goal? They outshot the Wings 27-22, they took over the game early, they faltered a bit in the second, then finished nicely. You can stuff xG in your bloomer.

thewookie1 Posted January 13, 2020 Report Share Posted January 13, 2020 I still see no point in going after the owner; he's done a lot of good for the area. He's far from perfect but I'll never understand the sheer anger pointed to our ownership. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who are we to question his decision making? What do we know about owning a team?” That’s basically the same logic that you are applying to the on ice performance. From my point of view.

And you certainly didn’t “sound an alarm” to all those who disagree with your opinion on the owner. You just managed to knee jerk early in the game and happened to be the leader as others jumped on the bandwagon over the years. And now to those who agree with the negative views on the owners, you were one of the first on this forum. Um ok. So ... congrats?? I still like the Pegulas ... so congrats??

Indabuff Posted January 13, 2020 Report Share Posted January 13, 2020 Looks like it's peak Sabres disappointment time of year. They're not worth it. Don't let these pricks make you divisive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To what end. The owners are measured on success. Which includes sales. To date, those haven't suffered. Until they do, the trial will be postponed.

PerreaultForever Posted January 13, 2020 Report Share Posted January 13, 2020 We have a new team mantra now: "We're better than Detroit." Cool. They are really really bad. Tanking I guess. Good to see a little physicality (Lazar, Bogo, Risto) even if it was against a feeble opponent. We need this every night. Clearly, the Risto in front of the net PP option is the only way to go right now. Should only improve as Risto gets more comfortable in the role. Hutton is not the worst goalie in the league :) Let's see if any of this carries over when we play a better team next. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
