well combined they accomplished nothing so, sure, why not.

my vibes are telling me Quinn will return within the next 3 games

Considering the style of play you enjoy watching, you must've been immensely dissatisfied near the end of the game when Murray had a chance to light up Cotter with a massive, legal check, and instead, he just hugged him graciously.

I agree he isn’t playing the needed role at all, but watching an aircraft carrier maneuver a confined area surrounded by row boats is entertainment enough for me at this point.

It’s been wanting Kulich here. Mean while your boy Brett Murray is here. Stinking up the joint and can’t keep up with the nhl game


Geeee. Who told you this.
- Sabretooth9

Well maybe if he played with more than just a void he might do a bit better. And you telling me anything about hockey is Funny! But keep trying Fitz.

Okay so the Sabres should keep playing a horrible player that actually hurts their team

Makes a lot of sense.
- Sabretooth9

Well they been doing it with Olofsson for 2 years, so what's your great Hockey point here ?

Maybe him over Big Blur?
- lulags

I wanted to see Kulich a lot sooner than this, was told to slow down. So while I agree not gonna say much. You get Big Murrrr instead.

What is chickenman doing?

When the Sabres put 3 solid games in a row together, I’ll start giving some props.
Still think Tage needs to get far more engaged, more effort.
That Olofsson/Jost line is a complete disaster.
Joker might be our best skating defensemen.
Power needs to get quicker, more physical. It’s very odd. He plays fantastic when Dahlin is out of the lineup.
We should bring in a PP consultant like the blues did. Our confidence on the PP is very low. Does not lead to a shoot first mentality.
Probably need to ride Levi 60% UPL40%

Line combos when Greenway and Quinn return
I think we keep the chemistry on the top 6

Benson/Tage/Tuch
JJ/Mitts/Cozens
Olofsson/Greenway/Quinn
Robinson/Krebs/Okposo

Jost goes to the moon.
Probably the best option we can ice in this scenario. My fear is it works well then skinner gets healthy and Meatball blows it up

This is silliness

“Devon Levi since being called up

- 3-0-1
- 5.76 GSAx
- .941 sv%”

Plenty of phenom chat this offseason, but yet you’re surprised?

Levi was fantastic and when hes playing like he has since the recall it definitely looks like he's the future. Looking for upl to have a big game tonight. Bounce back and help this team win 2 in a row

The rest of the team needs to show up regardless of who's in net

Levi played good/ ok 2 of the first 4 games of the season

Guys a rookie, gonna be some ups and downs

i think the last 5 have been solid besides the first period against the avalanche (i didnt watch last night, so not sure how that went)

they've been good-ish in a small majority of games this year, problem is when they aren't good they are extremely bad so it leaves a rotten taste in our mouths

throw in a few games where the goalies are dogpoop and a few games where the other team goalies us, and you get a losing record

We looked competitive last night. Made some mistakes, but Levi bailed us out

Don't think they were particularly good in the 1st last night, Levi was solid. But they found a way.

the bad games make it seem like we're completely (frank)ed but i think we're still okay

the big problem is adams made 2 signings and they're both completely horrible

but the "core" is probably still fine. too many important injuries this year to be sure.

When the whole band is back together...

Benson Tage Tuch
JJ Cozens Quinn
Skinner Mitts Rosen/Kulich
Robinson Krebs Greenway

Okposo, X (one of Girgs/Jost/Olofsson)

Waive the leftovers.

Note - the above will never happen.

Let's just hope:
1 -Donnie learned from the 1st four games that his time needs to be managed properly to optimize his results.
2 - Donnie can get his Defense and Forwards to actually play effectively on a consistent basis so no matter who the G is, he isn't hung out to dry
3 - Adams see that another Top 4 Dman is needed to solidify the D corps...and that serves the D corp, Forwards and especially the Goalie.

Additionally, Adams should realize :
-another nut and bolts player who is a complete b1tch to play against is needed...preferably in the Top 6, although 3rd line would be fine
-he has plenty of currency to acquire the roster needs, throw the team a bone damn it

This is a good description of the 13 rosters built under Pegula.

2 Though?
I count 5...
Okposso, so he could get to 1,000 games...mission accomplished
Girgensons...a 7th rounder was used to easily replace him...and save $400k
Jost - 4th line centers are easy to acquire
E Johnson - although I do think his experience is helping on the PK
Cliffy - playing better, but over-termed and over-paid...$3.3m on P3? Wow, cost doesn't hurt this season, but it could be used elsewhere in the future when raises come on-line in a big way.
