Nobody stick handles like "Auston". He has a complete game, and size. Eichel can't compare, different players..........and if you stand McFly up at the blue line a couple of time you take away a huge part of his game. In the warm-up against Calgary the other day McFly was practicing his stick handling in and around a group of pucks on the ice and his skills were clearly an order of magnitude below Matthews.

You're in the dark about Connor bro.
Although it's pretty crazy that he can blow by even the most elite defenders, Hes FAR more than just speed.

You mean when he set up three pucks that were almost immediately hit into disarray by another two pucks floating into his set up? You read into that small occurrence THAT much? Alright then. You're too far gone to even argue with.

I didn't see it, but it's funny that someone is making definitive comparisons based on something that happened in warmup.

7-1 McDavids

Eichel’s ankle shattered under the weight of expectation to be McDavid’s peer

Apparently Henderson is as big a putz as the last Oilers blogger...

Hey where are all of the Bills fans? Shouldn't you guys be on here posting how happy you are that they won? Oh wait a minute you guys only post when things are miserable, got it.

There's something sickening yet oddly poetic about the bills making the playoffs (i know i know not there yet) the year the sabres hopes get dashed in the span of 48 hours.

The ebb and flow of pro sports I suppose. I'm not a big Bills fan but it's pretty great they have won 4 in a row. Obviously it's crazy early in the Sabres season but if they can somehow hang in there till Eichel and Kane come back ya never know how the second half will go.

The niners are brutal, but whatever, dropping 45 on anyone is impressive

Yay Bills.

The Sabres postseason hopes are already toast, after one game, not that I thought they were making the playoffs this year anyway?

Neither did I but i just like the turn it took. If you had asked 100 fans in the summer who had a better shot id say an easy 65-70 would have said sabres.

For those that care, the Amerks play Syracuse today.
