Well I'm extremely excited about this guy... To make the impression he has without the ability to do a pull up is quite outstanding. Imagine how good he will be when he does 10 pull ups.. I mean that is like a 10x bonus multiplier. Each pull up he can do will multiply his hockey abilities by a point
-
Kane is more intense and feisty .. I need to see more of that in Reinhart this season. He underwhelmed majorly last season
-
Can he do a pull up ? that's the most important question LOL... I see the gang is already all over this one.. I'll move along now

I expected playoffs last year, and I expect them this year to. If we fail then I'm tossing Pegula under a bus.. He's the one that has been making these management decisions on both the Sabres and the bills and not a single one has panned out... (YET!).... The guy is batting 0.000. I have hope but very little patience after years upon years of Buffalo sports debacles

10 Years Ago was One of The Darkest Days in Sabres History 7/01/07
ddaryl replied to Brawndo's topic in The Aud Club
it was all Golisano.. I think Everyone new this to be true.. The original Ownership was the Knox brothers. They eventually had an ownership partnership and the team was heading to bankruptcy in 1997 and the Knox's and ownership partnership had to sell Rigas owned the team when Hasek was leading us to the 1999 championship. Fact was we failed to buy some goal scoring help at the deadline for Hasek. Another missed opportunity to win a championship. Rigas could of easily wrote another loan off the books of Adelphia cable to get us over the top.. I mean the guy and his family had taken 3.1 billion from Adelphia completely off the books.. Why he couldn't of helped the Sabres with that crooked money is a mystery.. What would another $25 mil off the top be at that point The NHL ran the Buffalo Sabres for almost a year until things were settled and Pegulas stepped in Bottom line is the Sabres are beyond lucky to even still exist considering how we had 2 really owners in a row who trashed this team.. In hindsight it should of been a lot lot lot worse that it is. -
LMFAO Neil Pert was anything but meh Ringo was a metronome. Nothing flashy but rock solid.. I dont see him as a great either.. But Neil Pert.. that's whacked IMO Where was Mickey Hart and Bill Kreutzman on that list. I would assume ahead of Carter and Neil for their creativity alone.. Mikey especially

Impossible for me to rate this draft.. Probably a B if I were to toss a grade at it. Its a B because we got no short term help. This draft was all about 3- 5 years down the road. SO to be upset about not drafting a defenseman early doesn't hold much water. I'm sure J Bo is aware of the need to get some D man into our system.. How he handles that will be what we all are watching

Expansion draft and league-wide wheeling and dealing
ddaryl replied to Brawndo's topic in The Aud Club
Those 1st rd picks will take years to be ready so even if they all turnout to be great pros it will be 4 or 5 years before that all comes to fruition. They have an entire minor league team to build as well for depth and 3 1st rd picks will help that but its going to be extremely hard for an expansion team to become a playoff contender in short time... and if 1st rd picks were the only key to long term sucess why did 3 teams offer their 1st rd pick just to get a player off their books much ado about nothign.. Vegas seems to be doing things well but they won't be contenders for some time -
Housley wants to instill passion. I would of been more impressed if he had said he wanted to work towards a winning culture and recapture passion because losing will suck the passion out of anyone... Winning feeds passion.. working hard and failing makes something fun more like work. Guess I'm just tired of cliche crap.. I like that he is a good communicator and has lots of experience. He was definitely a good choice but like the Bills I just really want to see the baby, and as always I will begin the new season with optimism
-
Tocchet or Housley. Both are good with communication and are top candidates. Either will do IMO... But when it comes to politics religion and sports.. KEEP IT TO YOURSELF, otherwise there will be fall out. If you are going to use my form of entertainment to forward your opinionated agenda then I don't want you on the team ever. I like sports to be free of that non sense

Only a fool would trade Evander for less than a huge over payment from another team He has kept out of trouble and he shows up to play.

Yes

Ville Leino Sweater depicts time in Buffalo as "Jail"
ddaryl replied to LikeEich's topic in The Aud Club
LMAO he wasn't even looking for sympathy he simply stated where the idea for his design came from. Lets face the facts even the fans felt like they were in jail watching the crap they put on the ice as a whole during that period and still are. Do some of you just always look for a skewer in life, maybe step back and look at it from a different perspective. You all cant aspire to be Jerry Sullivans and Bucky Gleasons, or do you ? and art is interpretive he'll sell a bunch because lots of people like that style and what does money have to do with anything. People with money have the similar struggles in their lives and have ot cope and money doesn't make things easier it just brings on new stresses and new issues to deal with. its sad how low some Buffalonian sports fans have fallen. Been a rough run but there is very little class being shown anymore. But few of you like to pretend a mole hill is a mountain -
If we can trade our #8 for a NHL ready D man then that is what we need to do We have no time to wait for a #8 D pick to be NHL ready this year. We best be looking at teams who have plenty of salary cap issues and desperate for draft picks there are a few we should be able to get a good D man
-
ROTFLMAO millennials.. typical of the older generation to blame the younger generations for the problems your generations caused to begin with. LMFAO at this non sense. wiping tears from my eyes right now. holy chit that caught me off guard

Who the hell has been dissing Eichel. I find his brash honesty refreshing and feel he is the teams true captain but just being on Bills and Sabres forums its easy to see how we will never succeed with our fans. Our fans are to over the top vocal and to many have no lives outside sports to point where i play less and less attention to the teams because i have to deal with the fans If I'm Jack i tell everyone to bite me and prepare to leave the city. If the fans are going to be giant douche bags they deserve the exodus and more misery to heap on their already miserable existences. Just had enough of the obsessive negativity coming from a simple form of entertainment

No longer believe in the Pegulas ability to do anything correct

Things that worry me (and what worries you the most?)
ddaryl replied to Sabre fan's topic in The Aud Club
Nothing worries me. Looking forward to the draft and a retool via FA and next season -
Gorges + Bogosian + Moulson + Ennis = Failure.
ddaryl replied to PalmTreeMafia's topic in The Aud Club
Moulson and Gorges were vets used who kept us at the cap floor for a few years. They were always going to be future purges, and that was planned. Cap hit doesn't even phase me because I actually knew why the contract were given to them in the 1st place Maybe I'm missing something but we are no where near cap troubles. (We have $25 million open this offseason. ) . And Gorges and Moulson will be long gone before any other young players get their next contracts http://www.spotrac.com/nhl/buffalo-sabres/cap/2017/ why do fans get their panties all in a know over absolutely nothign at all. -
Sam has a better market do to his youth and no off ice incidents Sam didn't impress me this year, and Kane although a pain was still one of our top scorers.. SO I think Sam could be traded for the top D man we need to acquire
