Again the HC obviously see's something with Sobotka on the 2nd line, might not be getting on the score sheet enough for some people, but something is working cause he is opening space for Skinner and MJ, for right know it is working so why complain about it

Maybe it was due to all the hype around him, but I was ready to be underwhelmed. He's been all he was touted to be and more so far.

I think it's a buffalo reflex for me.

I assumed we got ripped off.

Nylander wasnt going to do anything in buffalo, why would someone trade a potential top 4 d with ahl eligibility for nylander?

Joker makes that smooth 2/3 line pass look easy

How about krueger starting the roaring 20's line in the o zone? Good coaching. Phail lousley was terrible.

Okposo girgs larrson are pinning the other team in their zone

What? You need a bigger tv.


Why change anything? Sobatka was really good today.

And has played good in his role all year

- Boss34


Well, I'm about to move into the 300's by going out on the lanai with the 55" soon...weather starting to break...nothing like watch hockey outside!! Couch is a little closer though, so it should be like the 1st row.

Sobotka is a complete waste offensively.
Yes, he made a good pass today, and with it moved up to a run rate of 0.18 PPG from 0.00.
Whew! stellar!

What if Lazar came in and found some chemistry with Johansson and Skinner?
He may not, and it cost the team zero, zilch, nada, nothing to find out.
Nothing lost by doing so, wtf, he's traveling with the boys anyway...nothing but upside.

Well, Sobotka hasn't pooped himself yet, so there is THAT.

Seriously, he's pace for a staggering 0-15-15.
That right there is surely 2nd line material...close to that 0.50 PPG run rate, lol.

poop, I'd put Lazar there and see what happens. Can't get worse.

Funniest post I've read in a week. And the "yet" makes it even better.

Well done.Really good.

Looks like Botts was a little more slier then we thought, looking like some real nice moves this off season, looks like he is holding a few cards in his hand to make a decent move when the time is right

Larry is one of three players on the team with a minus rating, with 1 point

Let's not go full garthgasm on the pluggers just yet, boss

But, sorry but you have to get the differences between
-Are and Our
-Know and Now

Your takes are ok, but the spelling is difficult.

I can’t believe they traded him.

Olli Maatta has been disastrous for Chicago too. And I believe De Haan is hurt

Yeah they are turning into a nice trio there Boss, seems like Girgs has found h.is confidence again. Hopefully they can find the net some more with all the hard work, but the other team can't score if they can't get out of there own end either to

I can't either and don't understand why they did.

What if he actually gets better too?

Wrong. I take serious issue with tnis
No arguing, and it certainly wasn't 2 years either ( more like 3 or 4), and damn it, they know where they are and can find themselves.

Getting cold in Buffalo = nice weather in Bradenton

Awesome, I remember watching the Stanley cup on our porch off hertel

Sobatka is adding some physical insurance and room to work for 90 and 53.

I bet he gets 10 goals or 20 points this year if he stays on the 2nd line and doesn't get hurt.

It was such a perfect game that it was almost boring. The Sabres need to suck a little bit so the game is doubt at some point. I can't have them playing this well. I wont stand for it

The Sabres dominated the “fancy stats” in the 2nd period. As long as they continue to defend like this we have a chance to make the playoffs.

Girgs was flying today. He likes playing for krueger, you can se. Hes like the ted nolan girgs again
