People also get amnesia about the scorn the Sabres took when they let Chris Taylor go and replaced him with "yes man" Seth Appert. How's that working out?

How is it not obvious to you that you are making cursory judgements on players you know nothing about because you never see them play. NHL players don't descend from heaven on a cloud. They come from the AHL and often take years to fully develop. You're writing people off because they don't score 10 goals during an emergency call up.

What you did was ask for something you know can't happen. Like a ten game win streak before the season begins. Current Amerk players aren't helping the "Sabres win", ignoring that the Sabres aren't playing now, is that they are not on the Sabres yet.

Some AHL teams play few prospects and fill rosters with older players who are good and strong but are not going to the NHL other than in a fill-in role. That is what Hershey is. Syracuse is sort of like that too. Rochester is committed to development so it's a young roster with new players getting added in midseason. So try to take that into account while you watch your highlights.

16-4-3-1 since March 1. Tied for 1st in the division. How is that not winning? My god, are people so committed to whining about the Sabres they can't even acknowledge something positive? Only five teams (17%) out of 30 saw their NHL clubs have a . 500 or worse record after their AHL team's . 610 or better performance. Out of the 30 AHL teams that met my criteria only eight (27%) saw their NHL club fail to make the post season the year after. https://theleafsnation.com/news/does-ahl-success-translate-into-nhl-success

How would you know if you don't...watch them?

They are streaming most of the game free on YouTube.

It started with the Amerks outplaying Syracuse but leveled out in game 2. Game 3 Syracuse figured out something in the Amerks game. So much so that Rochester could not finish a pass without a Crunch player in the way. It got so bad I noticed Amerk players breaking off offense to get back to defend too quickly. They were worried about Syracuse in transition. That said I still think Rochester played their ***** off in their own end frustrating Syracuse. The Crunch did have some extended possessions but not that many dangerous scoring chances. Rochester was in the same spot last year, down 2-1 to the Crunch, and managed to pull it out. I hope Appert has something up his sleeve.

Lol, I bet that one felt good. I didn't see your post before I wrote mine. 😂

Because they were better in games 1 & 2.

Bigger and older Crunch team taking everything away from Rochester. But the Amerks are still fighting to hang on.

Only Syracuse getting calls tonight Who wants more hockey?

Let's make this even harder.

Ciccone saved the game.

Go to theahl.com. it's 1-1 in OT.

Overtime means either team could win.

Going to overtime. Syracuse is playing a smothering game against the Amerks. Absolutely no room to operate. They have to spread out to get a chance.

Penalty shot for Rosen 🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯 What a huge call And despite that it's tied.

Levi is him.

Gift-wrapped chance there. Gotta cash those in.

How many Crunch power plays have there been? 4?

Say we waited for Rod and the Canes go very deep into the playoffs. Meanwhile Ruff and several other prime candidates get scooped up. Then at the last second Brind'amour resigns with Carolina. How do you envision we blame Adams for botching the coaching search?

Fabulous line up. 👍 I saw Orville Peck in a tiny club when he was a total unknown. He's great.
