See, anchors can be a good thing

What’s the consensus on Metsa? Anyone like what they saw last night?

The only place people view him negatively is in Sabre land. He’s a very gifted offensive defenseman that teams would give up a lot for. A team needing a PP QB and number one dman. He can step in immediately and provide that to any team needing one.

This is just not true. https://www.reddit.com/r/hockey/s/ceu1TDkM3L

There is a 0.0% chance Owen Power is traded. Adams doesn’t have the guile or stones to pull it off. Also, anytime I utter something into the interwebs, I’m usually quickly thwarted as the exact opposite happens. Here’s hoping…

Anchors can be a good thing. 😬

It’s not Benson or Doan that have changed. It’s Power, Quinn, Samuelsson. The guys that needed to change. We are all probably looking way too far into this. I’m just gonna enjoy it, maybe the underlying reasons will come to light. It’s just nice to watch the Sabres behave like an actual NHL franchise.

I don’t think any of us can “know” anything in regards to immeasurable things like courage, desire, determination, playing with more of an edge in any one game scenario. Let’s see how it plays out. I would LOVE for this team to finally become an actual team that plays for one another. After the 41 game mark, let’s take inventory of the games Geertsen has played and whether or not they play different with him in the lineup.

Easily to coolest name in all of sports. Especially because it’s pronounced Jack-eye.

I mostly agree with everything you are saying but the boys are playing different. Not sure what the reason is.

Like I said, time to ease up on the caffeine and post less

It’s probably coincidence and not causation but the boys played tough Saturday. Maybe it had nothing to do with Geertsen but I’d like to see if it’s a thing. He’s not good at hockey buts he’s a big boy that knows his role. Maybe it makes the Quinn’s and Power’s of the lineup more confident to stand up for themselves and their teammates. Something is different. Not sure if it’s Doan, Timmons or some of the other new guys but they are sticking up for each other like we haven’t seen in a long time.

I’m not a big Isak fan but you gotta feel for the dude. He’s put in the time, he’s lighting up the AHL. Maybe they’ve seen enough to know he’s not what they need.

Just didn’t know if everyone was still talking about that. I suppose going back to Montreal makes it timely. I should probably post less. Please do us the favor and keep making GDT if they win. Got to maintain the good juju.

Is it just you that mentions this all the time or is there a Sabrespace initiative to reference this barely memorable moment in Sabres history?

Krebs would be my choice.

What would you offer?

Preseason is meaningless

Weird timing. I have advocated trading him forever but he literally just played his most intense engaged game since joining the team. You just straight up don’t like him because he’s 6’6” and isn’t overly physical.

Wonder how many 91 sweaters they are going to sell today

Doan’s smile is infectious

Maybe but his flow is to die for. Nice seeing him put that Panther in a headlock. If he drops the gloves I may have to excuse myself for a few

Nice. I suppose it’s good marketing for her company. If Terry wants to just toss her the keys to the franchise, I wouldn’t complain.

I have been honking this horn. These type of guys, which other teams have in droves, drive the team.
