Sean Malone out for the rest of the year, lower body injury and surgery. Karmanos really has to think about Rochester's D, other than Fitzgerald Samuelsson Laaksonen they really have nothing right now.

I agree, NE is hurting in there secondary, the wind really should have no factor on this game. Just can't see them stopping Allen and Company. They better hope Jackson can take away Diggs 1on1, they can't cover all Josh's weapons if he can't.

Yeah, as long as Allen is “on” we should be ok

He’s supposed to make a full recovery
I wonder how far he drops in the 1st round though
He was being talked about as a possible top10 pick
If he’s still on the board when it’s our turn to draft,
we should seriously consider scooping him up
I know it’s not a “need”
But giving Allen another weapon like that could help make this offense next to unstoppable

I know he will, just pointing it out as it’s the most recent example of turf sucking.

Yeah, i got that
And i agree

Just thought u were saying Williams career was over as well

For whatever reason, a lot of non-contact knee injuries seem to happen on turf

The NFL should consider banning it

Going into the playoffs Allen is Averaged 6.9yrds a carry, Singletary has Averaged 4.6yrds a carry. NE is bad against the run. Does that change there defensive game plan. Does that open up them for a heavy dose of Knox and McKenzie/Beasley. Better not forget about McKenzie with Beasley back.

Pats are dinged up in the secondary

I would go with a heavy dose of cole and isaiah on the field at the same time in a spread offense

Wouldn't mind seeing McKenzie lined up in the backfield along with Singletary, give some interesting options

I like that idea
All year I’ve been saying we should use McKenzie on offense more
I thought he proved he could be a valuable weapon in the Miami game at the end of last season
He’s speedy, and he gives the offense another dimension when he’s out there
If the Pats are focused on him,
it could open up Knox for a big day

This is why my parley is all Allen. Either he kills it or we go home generally.

But they didn’t handle Jerry dipsh!t Sullivan’s dumba$$ question great (supposedly)….
And that’s why they won’t play good in the game tonight

Some of the sh!t that gets thrown around here is pure idiocy

Poyer & Hyde are both really good players,
regardless if they tell Sullivan to shove it or not

Line projections may not be right on NHL site, but shows Tage centering the 3rd line?

He’s been in the top6 for the most part this season
Nice to see him finally developing into a useful player for us
It was quite a rough watch when he first got here

From Lance Lysowski:

"This is an optional skate, so no lines or pairings. And no, Peyton Krebs isn’t here. He was in protocol far too long to play tonight."

"Tage Thompson is back tonight for the Sabres. Zemgus Girgensons is out because he’s dealing with an injury. No word yet on the starting goalie."

"Sabres plan to have Peyton Krebs practice with the team Sunday. He’s staying in the NHL, at least for now."

Thanks for this!

1- first time I’ve listened to the new show. I like cussing Petey. Lol

2- major changes is interesting. They have had so much major change, all that is left is for the pegulas to sell the Sabres and focus on the bills.
