Personally, I think UPL sucks but who cares if he went out after a loss. Do people think a player should sit in a dark corner and think about a loss?

Yes.KrypSi4.gif

Free Lyon.

Edit:  Unrelated to me wanting Lyon to play more frequently.

Stuff from a Toronto news outlet: 
 

 

 

Yeah, probably the dumbest story in a while.

I dunno. I kinda liked it. It had a good beat, and I could dance to it.

Sadly it did not gain traction and bring much needed shame and degradation to the Sabres franchise. I do wonder if Terry briefly clutched his pearls.

@johnwawrow, who was probably also there, did leap to his overlord's defense.

Mainly I am mad that THAT dude is able to pull ass (UPL, not JW).

Lindy said he wasn’t pulled in the game due to his play, but rather to send a message to the team. 

I highly doubt the comments have anything to do with it, but I also wouldn’t be surprised in the least bit if he wasn’t in good standing. Most players don’t air their dirty laundry publicly until they’ve already aired it privately. 

That kind of message might have worked in a different situation and in a different era. Maybe. But doing that to Lyon of all people at that point of time was plain dumb. If Lindy really pulled Lyon at that point in the game to send a message to the team, then maybe he is just too far out of touch when it comes to coaching a hockey team in this day and age?

Lindy also likes to play ‘hot hand’… ? I am done w UPL. 6 years and no consistency. 
 

That said, IDK why no Lyon as he is IMO best option w Ellis as backup

 

They know what Lyon is.   He is a 1B/2, and they know they need to keep him fresh to get the most of out of him.  

They are still undecided between UPL and Ellis, or it might come down to which one makes a better trade?

How many games do they play at home in a row? lol

 

After tonight they play 7 of the next 8 on the road.  

The season probably hinges on how they  play between now and Christmas.

And after those 8 games, we'll know.

After the loss to Utah made comments about accountability and earning everything. He’s since played less than a period in net. Maybe coincidence, maybe a message. 

Thanks for posting the article. Hadn’t read Lyon’s comments previously.

Always respected the guy, and have more respect for him now.

Exactly the message the Sabres needed, young players and a few vets as well.

Doubt his lack of playing time had much to do with him not playing recently.

Good to see him starting today.

Go Sabres!
