Yet the Sabres are averaging less shots on goal and less shot attempts

Ralph needs to go

Regardless of who your favorite players are, he is seriously holding this team back!

- Stripes77


100% agree.

I'm a hypocrite at times for sure, especially considering I have a soft spot for Sabres longevity....

Risto - 8th all time in defenseman scoring
7th all time in defenseman points.
He's an offensive defenseman, built x -large

Sam reinfart 79 nhl even strength goals
Zemgus girgensons 52 nhl even strength goals

- Boss34


Girgs has also played 2 more seasons than Sam

What point are u making here?
Bc there’s no comparison between the two
Sam is MUCH, MUCH better

That's a fair comparison.

Draft status, ice time and contacts aside.....

Girgensons was scheduled to make 3 million less this year right?

2.2 vs. 5.2 ?

There should be a few more expectations correct?

- Boss34



Sure there are lot of expectations

There's also PP time, PK time for Zemgus, line mates, etc etc.

But you were the one that brought up even strength goals and left out some important things like amount of games each has played...

Just saying

It's not an exclusive deal so my guess is we will hear more in the next month or so about the other network.

Sounds like they are going to do what the NFL does with the Super Bowl and rotate networks for the Cup

- Stripes77


The Canadian deals in two or three years (or whenever it's up) are going to be nuts.

Risto was having his best season in a long time until he got Covid

But man Ralph is really holding this team back as a whole

A few players have shown more, or maybe they look better because everyone else has regressed?

Someone probably hit the release button too early. My guess is the NHL wanted to announce both TV deals simultaneously.

That's reasonable, I was actually pretty shocked it was that close. I'm guessing you were a bit suprised?

Everyone is always talking about even strength scoring, maybe that's why gurgs got 3 x 2.2

This weather reminds me of coming home after school and playing street hockey during the early rounds of the playoffs. Back when we didn't suck
- jcragcrumple


Same (sorta)..

For the 07 playoffs at school we'd all go to a friend's apartment and set up the beer pong tables in the back yard, pull the grill out and pregame for the pregame.
Then roll over to a bar to watch the game.

Man, was that fun. The weather really brings out the nostalgia sometimes.

Also....
isn’t Girgs a “disappointment” too if u consider his draft position?

Hell, A LOT of ppl here were calling him the next Captain- and he ended up as a decent-good bottom6 player!

👍yes, I'm not a ralph fan, but strangely some players have played better underneath his coaching.

Coincidence? Maybe?

Last year the log line , eichel, risto and lazar
This year- sam, McCabe and risto. (Reider)

Imagine defensive defensemen Jake McCabe and Will Borgen (small sample) looking excellent in this system.

Who'da thunk.

Smoke Brown is being released.

Sad.

Wonder what the game plan is going forward. Seems almost obvious that it will be Diggs Davis Beasley.. wonder if they add a cheap vet, keep Lil Dirty and/or draft another mid round receiver.

If you look at it in a nutshell its close

But my guess is by the time Sam plays 489 games he will be close to double the 52 that Zemgus has

Hate to see it, but I think we all knew it was coming. I think Gabe Davis will be just fine, but they also need to get another speed threat too.

They will need a vertical threat guy when they go 4 wide for sure

I like Brown but his injuries held him back, and let's face it Diggs is a stud and Beasley in the slot has been Josh's bail out
