Mustache of God Posted February 1, 2020 Report Share Posted February 1, 2020 Someone's got to start it. Here's hoping they start JoJo, or any other goalie whose won a game since ***** October. Discuss. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freester Posted February 1, 2020 Report Share Posted February 1, 2020 Look at what a great coach and a great GM can do despite losing elite talent in free agency. Now look at our incompetent GM and you know why we are the shitshow of the league. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tondas Posted February 1, 2020 Report Share Posted February 1, 2020 This is how I feel about watching Sabres hockey right now. The thrill is gone The thrill is gone away The thrill is gone The thrill is gone away You know you done me wrong And you'll be sorry someday 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As far as their GM, I couldn’t call him great. The trades of a first and 2 seconds last year will have an impact down the road. Nyquist signing is questionable at $5.5m. Not his fault his three biggest UFA’s left town but it’s not like they made any moves to fill those holes. Not defending JB by any means. vegas has buffalo as -110 or even on the Moneyline. Wonder why. Seems like our season is over and would be an easy Columbus win. But they know way more than us, so I wouldn’t be surprised if the Sabres win.

Scottysabres Posted February 1, 2020 Report Share Posted February 1, 2020 Now that the playoffs are all but gone what are the players playing for now? More of the same? "We're playing for each other"? or maybe "we play for our pride"? Or is it some more of this gem, "we have to gain steam going in to the off season for next season"? And if none of those rear their ugly heads, which I'm sure some will, they can always do their favorite fall back line, "we need to finish up strong, because, you know, we have no freaking idea why"...……….. go sabres, I guess...……...

If we hired Torts and Jarmo today and fired Botteril, we could be a playoff contender next season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jack in an interview after the season remarked how bold the move was and wished that more teams would do it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wyldnwoody44 Posted February 1, 2020 Report Share Posted February 1, 2020 I'm glad I checked SS, haven't payed attention much after the Ottawa loss, that sealed it for my caring much on the season. But I'm off today, feeling lazy and maybe I'll pop the game on in the background and see if the boys actually have grown a pair since the all star break Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LTS Posted February 1, 2020 Report Share Posted February 1, 2020 I'll listen while driving to Brockport for my kids game today. Miss most of it while I am there. Glad to see tickets prices have gone to the floor so I can pick up a few games and take my son. It's hockey.. and as frustrating as it is and as much as I want them to be better, I'll still go if the economics are right. If they get you down, tune out, why let them impact even a part of your life negatively. You can still be a fan and not pay attention. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately he’s not available. I applaud them for going all-in for it last year. Dzingel, Duchesne, and some others weren't enough to get them through, though. It'd be like if in '06-'07, knowing we might lose Briere and Drury, we'd have rented Peter Forsberg from the Flyers and Bill Guerin from the Blues. (And also gotten some AHL D as insurance.) Instead of Zubrus, who was solid for us, and AHL D insurance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
