Michael Pachla: What to make of the Sabres line shakeups at practice today.

I thought girgs played well against pitt. I don't really understand this because Girgs and Pouliot bring pretty much the same element. Sort of a lateral move, I guess. Maybe it just wasn't working with Reinhart and Pouliot

Why so many empty seats in Atlanta?

Gus seemed to take a step back vs. the Isles...didn't like his game

Our offense either goes 3 and out, or scores

Questionable but I'll take it....

he's better off on the third/fourth line and filling in to provide a change of pace and some energy in the top six

I still don't see him on this team after this year. I think he should be a 3rd/4th line center somewhere, but I've been wrong before. I don't like Larsson on the wing either. But the good news is DLOs freak goal didn't fool housley

Larsson and Girgensons played well in Rochester a few years back...I wouldn't be opposed to those two being on the same line again

You can compare someone without saying they'll get that players points.

He reminds him of Zetterberg. He would know who he reminds him of. He's coached them both.

They're not empty, it just looks weird. Every time they show the crowd in a close up it's packed.

Is it just me or are the camera angles bad/weird?

He’ll say the falcons didn’t have their star receivers we got lucky

Which ignores the reality of the NFL

We ran all over them. Or we force them to go 100 yards.

It's a no brainer

“Take the points on the road and force them to get the TD to tie.”

Well now we see if the mentality of previous teams is gone or not....

Yeah I agree. Go up 11 or be up 4. So now it's tied because they're too conservative.

You can't be conservative against a team like Atlanta. Bills need another 19 play drive here.
