Dr. Who Posted March 29, 2022 Report Share Posted March 29, 2022 20 minutes ago, North Buffalo said: What Granato says about the dangers of chasing perfection and also accepting that one has to work through the inevitable messiness of real life situations has applications well beyond hockey. We're fortunate to have a solid fella who happens to be a pretty damn good coach. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That Aud Smell Posted March 29, 2022 Report Share Posted March 29, 2022 The local paper has a write-up about how last night's game was the 4th (?) biggest comeback in franchise history. And the piece clarified that the comeback I had in mind was in 1983, at home against the Bruins. That was a 7-6 victory after trailing by five. Mal Davis with the winner!

That was during my exile from hockey. I pretty much missed out on the Sabres for all of the 80s and most of the 90s.

It will also be a new culture that they can join and help it grow. I am excited more and more every day. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not too mention all of the other prospects we have to fill in the gaps that are doing great right now Over the last year, I've become a big believer in Kevyn Adams. Finally, we have a GM that's taking the longview and isn't looking for shortcuts. He recognized that this wasn't an overnight rebuild, it's a big job and has really started to go about it meticulously. I think there were some big errors early in his tenure (eg. Hall/Staal signings), but I now wonder how much of that was Pegula driven. He's now really (almost hyper) focused on obtaining draft capital to build a core from within. I love that he's resisted the urge to call guys like Quinn & Peterka up, opting instead to let them build chemistry on a very good Amerks team. I like that he didn't cave and ship off some of the expirings for late draft picks so that the team, that has spent all year building chemistry, can play out the string and try to win some games, thereby improving culture. A lot of people knocked the return for the Eichel trade, but it's becoming clear it was done with a specific purpose. Tuch is a local guy with leadership qualities that will want to be here. Krebs is a skilled young guy and has bought in totally. I think long haul the Sabres win that trade big. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
