All big hits are called now, the nhl does not want big hits or fighting, the future of hockey will be pond hockey or like the all star game

Not all big hits are called. You're saying that out of frustration, and I understand why, but you know that it's not true.

He is 6'4 many players out there his size, point being he will fight or go after skilled players that are small, for a long time players that played like lucic and did as much had to fight a probert ray domi and if they did not they where seen as cowards though out the NHL

Oh yeah, I forgot Sabres fans hated Lucic.

Fasching moves pretty well for a big guy.

I guess. 8 years has been tough though. Hope were only a couple more seasons away. Of course, with major changes.

So the Sabres are about to make it 4 years. How many seasons go by before they make the playoffs again?

I just turned it on and Minnesota is not looking good right now.

It might be 3.

Very well could be. Do you think you'll have any of the same issues the Oilers had?
1) Poorly Balanced Line-up (too many small forwards)
2)Inexperienced Blue line
3)Questionable Goaltending
4)Poor Veteran Leadership

We've missed the playoffs 3 years. I think if the right moves are made, they can make it in 2 more.

Nope, last 7 mins have been Sabres-esque

Is it really 4-2 in the 1st period

That would be a fast turnaround. Good luck.

Wouldn't look good for the league if Scott put Lucic out of the playoffs. They needed to end it there. Not that I agree with it, but you don't want a garbage player on a garbage team injuring Lucic.

I'd call it even for the Miller hit..

Looks like Philly has a good player in Gostisbehere. He seems to be a beast.

I think we will be ahead of Edmonton. Meaning, it won't take as long. We already have a lot of young defensemen in our system. It will be about picking up talented forwards in the next few drafts. It will be a young team that might not gel for 5 years. The Sabres are going to build with high draft picks. I am looking forward to the rebuild.

- Sabresfan-365

Yeah. Union has dominated the last half of the period.

By the way, BVB thrashing 2 of the top 4 European teams in 1 week. Didnt concede a single goal to Real or Bayern. Life is good!

Of course it could be a total disaster if Tim Murray doesn't know what he is doing. At this point he is unproven.

I see. Edmonton is finishing their 4th year of the rebuild. (we simply sucked for 4 years prior, but tried to patch it together). 2 biggest unresolved issues are 1) A solid developed top pair on the blue line), and some size,grit and defensive acumen in the top 9.
Free Agency will need to be the Key for Mac T. Tall order.

Bit of Jekyl and hyde performance from Minnesota there.


I agree

Good Luck. From what I hear the Free Agent class is kind of weak this year. I haven't checked it out yet. Ive been studying the draft.

So what are we going to do for players in this last game? Goalies? I can't believe the injuries. Heard a clip a few days ago that Nolan wasn't happy with the player's conditioning saying it contributed to too many injuries.
