stenbaro Posted March 25, 2021 Report Share Posted March 25, 2021 Could this be a record for an NHL team, hiring a person that has never worked at a the position hired for in his career, and then having to fulfill another job he has never done in his life either? One man 2 cups. LOL. This team is not only a joke, they have the luck of a burnt cloverleaf stamped with the numbers 666 the only thing readable. You can't make this up. Hysterical. Just fold the damn team up. Burn the arena down and make it a damn wishing well. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thwomp! Posted March 26, 2021 Report Share Posted March 26, 2021 Sweet. Direct evidence for a theory I've been working on. The Sabres have been getting too much coaching. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have mentioned this here and there, but I never understood how fans keep insinuating, for instance, that players somehow forget how to stay onside in a game they have played and watched their entire lives. These guys know how to play the game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you aren’t practicing it with your teammates in practice, your timing and anticipation of each other is not going to be there at game time. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And when you change lines weekly or daily it becomes impossible to build chemistry and timing. Good team keep steady lines, sometimes for many years.

pi2000 Posted March 26, 2021 Report Share Posted March 26, 2021 It's time to start vaccinating everybody. Some NBA teams have already received the vaccine. Here in California starting April 1st anybody >50 is eligible regardless of health, and the plan is to open it up to everybody +18 by mid-April.

It’s a made up concern. https://morehockeystats.com/teams/offsides Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doohickie Posted March 26, 2021 Report Share Posted March 26, 2021 dis probably falls under the "abundance of caution" category with the Sabres' recent history with Covid. I'm guessing Granato and Ellis were exposed to someone who later tested positive and were isolated while contract tracing and testing was done.
