Something tells me the Sabres sky is about to fall.

Amen.

I don’t understand why it’s so easy to fall back into the names that are associated with a decade of disappointment.

For the record, I bring up Pominville's name because people say it would be impossible for Botterill to improve the forwards at this point.

That's one move that's very doable if Botterill so chose. And the past 2 years shows he can produce when fresh

He's not my first choice, but it's a free choice

Pominville would not be an improvement. He’s old slow and didn’t hustle at all last year.

I gave up on this season weeks ago. Unfortunately we can't fire the owner.

Terry did and he was pissed we traded the pick

He picked Josh Allen next

I know but this team REEKS of mediocrity.

This team has zero passion.

Here’s the question that should be asked

Is Jason Pominville better than Erod, Vesey and Sobotka?

Since the above all suck, he should probably be signed

How come nobody is talking about how bad Reinhart has been? He has been terrible for 10 games now. Passes never seem to connect and he just can’t make plays on his own. Only if Eichel had top flight wingers to play with like most other stars have.

Is there still time to turn it around, or are we picking top 10, like Gerbe said? (but he didn't bury them, just ask him).

In three weeks Pominville will suck also. There are better options that won’t go stale as quickly.

We all want them to make a trade, but is there any type of trade market 1 month into the season?

Well, at 11 pts in 15 games (2nd on the team) he's on pace to produce about 60 pts, or 0.75 PPG, and over the past 3 years he has ramped up his production in the 2nd half of the year, so maybe he gets to 70 or 75pts? He has the 2nd most shots and has the 2nd highest Shot % of the forwards.

I think there are bigger fish to fry on this team.
Looking at you Vladmir, Jimmie, Casey, Victor (at EV), and Connor to some degree.

What time are the games going to be in Sweden, there is a 5 hour time difference in Stockholm.

Oh, by the way, I didn't really notice our 9 million dollar golden boy much recently. When Eicheil is down, and Reinhart is nowhere to be found you hope your other blue-chip carries the load.

When was the last time he scored anywhere? 8 games ago?

He’s been a huge disappointment since about game 4
