I don't care what analytics say, I know what i've seen watching games. You have to have a guy like 44 in the lineup.

I think you still need a guy that's able to throw his weight around as well. However, that player also needs to be able to contribute in other ways on the ice as well, and I think DLo is pretty capable of that. He's not just a guy that's going to go out and punch everything that moves.

I like him in the lineup as well. And he is one guy that actually gets the crowd somewhat going at KBC. Which unless your name is Eichel, is not very easy to do.

I think D Lo is a valuable player to have and IMO should stay in the lineup, there will be plenty of time to get Bailey in later on.

The Bills are 2-2.


They need to go 9-3 the rest of the way to guarantee the playoffs.

AKA it ain't happening.

Thankfully a real sport start in 10 days.

I took a look at the conference standings...the afc is pretty open right now and 10-6 might just do it...despite their two afc conference losses so far

- Michael Pachla

IMO the last spot on the 4th line and the 1 reserve, they tend to keep 8 d men, comes down to

grant
deslaurers
cor


pick 2

of course we still have the kaleta and legwand factors

the last 8 days proved how unprepared the bills were to start the season

maybe the ryan twins should have played their starters more in the preseason, esp the d and tyrod

IMO right now, only chance is to match the pats for the rest of the year and win the rematch

division title or bust

Kulikov suffered a bruised back injury Friday in a preseason game against Toronto. It's not believed to be serious, but his status for Tuesday's preseason game against Carolina is questionable. He should be ready to go once the season begins.

Also, Risto deal done by the weekend.

cincy looks beatable...la, san fran and jax are very beatable as is Miami...twice...can fitz pull off another win vs. Buffalo?

the only sure losses look to be new England and seattle...as good as Pittsburgh looks, I still feel it's not a sure loss

That Kulikov thing looked really painful. Hopefully it is just a bruise and he'll be fine by the regular season. Could have been much worse.
