I think we'll get a better idea in the next 4 games as the quality of competition goes up substantially in Vancouver, Boston, Devils, and Lightning.

There will be games theyโ€™re overwhelmed by a more talented team BUT if they continue to skate and work like they have the first 2 games they will be a pleasant surprise and the fans will come back

Getting jack in the rearview mirror will help too. All we wanted from him was 10% of the leadership weโ€™ve seen from Josh Allen, instead we got more of an Jeff George player: all the talent in the world with the likeability/leadership of a slug.

Maybe we have to hope Levi or Portillo is our future goalie or both. The next Sauve and Edwards combo for a while.

Well. be more negative towards players and the team and you can join the club The Sabres Masochist Club.

I'll let you in if you are no longer a Skimmer supporter. That will be your due for the year.

How's it going?

I went golfing last week at the local 9 hole coarse and came 2 inches from an eagle

I saw that pro got an albatross

Solid post.

As far as Eichel being "Kucheroved", I suspect a deal in the December timeframe fits that timeline better.

I said it after FA, the sweet spot for an Eichel trade has now turned towards next offseason.
HOWEVER, one of Jack or Kevyn needs to cave on the surgery pretty soon for that to occur.
Do we see that actually happening?

This is the most F'd up scenario imaginable.

- IonSabres



Good post uncle ion

December timeline makes sense. The august timeline for the Olympics also made sense.

I've been pretty steadfast on gaining the eichel assets after this season, but before the july contract nmc kicks in.

The hot start could push the process a bit. Clearly management realizes the habs had their 3rd string goalie and az. Had a 1st nhl guy in.
Maybe they catch some breaks this season....

All good over here life seems almost back to normal other than shortages in stores and threats that Xmas may be cancelled due to empty shelves

Family is all well so can't complain

Congrats on retirement and wish you all the best

Lol. You write like you're a 12 year old girl sending these players letters each week. My God, you even give them extremely juvenile nicknames.

Like I said, post lime that are the reason no one takes you seriously.

So you're just going to sit here waiting for them to lose? What's the point? We all know they're going to lose more than they win this year. Can't you just enjoy it when they do win?

WET1 is miserable. He's a downer and can't be happy for others.

I enjoy when they win but when it gets overblown a tad in relation to who they played by some people it does get a bit silly. Especially when certain posters saying how efficient the D is when they played these two teams. I'll just ride it out and wait for a larger, better sample size to see what this team really is all about.
- GilPerreault11


How's cody. Eakin. Looking?

2 points in 2 games. Better than johan Larsson?

One poster made fun of you because of your opinion on eakin. Same guy that wanted to leave risto exposed to Seattle. ๐Ÿ˜€๐Ÿ˜€๐Ÿ˜€๐Ÿ˜€๐Ÿ˜€๐Ÿ˜€๐Ÿ˜€๐Ÿ˜€
