I'm too ambivalent at this point of the year. Too many years of all the positivity in the world being displayed only to be crushed by Thanksgiving or the latest Christmas. I don't want to here it now.

I want to see it throughout the season.


Until then, just noise.

Jesus.

Now you've done it.

I'd like to see them commit to a heavy, truculent, powerful bottom 6:

Wilson-Larry-Okposo
Girgs-Sobotka-Elie

Its early yet in camp, but Eli is impressing. A 4th line of Elie, Sobotka and Girgensons would provide maximum truculence

It's brutal, but when the success finally comes after a goddamn decade of misery, it feels so so good.

Someone linked with ranting Ron on twitter is saying we are going off from Brock boeser.

Why do people create such dumb rumors.

IMO the depth, if casey and cozens pans out, is as good as any team not named the leafs or bolts in the east

if you have johansson, olofsson, sheary and tage as your bottom 6 wingers

it's a lot better then wilson, elie, girgens and sobotka

- homiedclown

while i agree with this its still one of those in a few years statements.. i want it this year

We have lived in a cloud of failure, malaise and ennui for 8 years

You can always tell when someone is full of poop when you read “it’s from two sources”

IMHO Cozens needs at least one more year in the minors, probably a year in Rochester after that... But the future is looking a little brighter now. I like where Botts has taken the defense with the recent additions... still some work to do at forward though... and Goalie is still a question mark... If UPL is the real deal this will be a really fun team to watch in 2-3 years

Cozens isn't eligible for the AHL next year. Another reason to hate CHL players.

I wish people would stop trying to force him into the lineup already as well. My understanding of him (based on scouting reports pre-draft) was that he's going to need a few years before he'd be able to make the jump to the NHL.

He could sign in Europe, right?

If he doesn't make the team next year, that might be a better choice than going back to junior

The Sabres will / should give him his 9 game try out.

If he does well, he stays. If he struggles, he goes back to Canada.

They were saying the rumor is this....


#Sabres are REPORTEDLY pursuing Boeser, however the team isn’t ready to give him up, so the potential trade is as follows:

C. Tanev to Oilers (needs to happen first)

Risto/Girgensons/Davidsson/Late pick to Vancouver

Virtanen/2020 or 2021 1st/Sutter/Palmu to Buffalo

I believe he could, not 100% sure. Would be an interesting option.

Why do you say that? We have 0 to go off of at this point with him. If he blows the doors off of camp, I can see saying something like that. But honestly, he'd have to go out and reallllllllllllllllllllly impress before I feel like they should even consider not just sending him back.

Because the Sabres lose nothing if he gets his 9 games.

After game 9 and you send him back. You don’t burn a year of his contract and have the full 3 year ELC.
