  1. I hope nothing, I like the guy
  2. I hadn't though of that but yes, they lacked his consistency, since Buff disappeared like a ninja. I think his ceiling is around Seabrook in stats. 5 to 8 goals and 20 or so assists if he ends up with help seems realistic.
  3. Very true Dunleavy is growing on me as well through his antics.
  4. Bogosian is alot of what you guys said, but I'd also add that based on his style of play, and that of the playoffs, he should be a crucial piece to our future playoff teams with his physicality coupled with the ability to move and potentially score. If he can be a lesser offensively gifted Seabrook I'd be beyond happy.
  5. I'm just making the box a tad bigger. :)
  6. To be honest the whole Jenner saga is a waste of time and I couldn't care less. Getting that athletic award recently, an ESPY I think, was a farce seeing as what he/she did had nothing to do with sports whatsoever. That at very least was just a publicity stunt. Trump is a dimwitted pain who for every two good points he makes screams at the top of his lungs 15 idiotic ones. For instance I agree we need to do something about the illegal immigrant problem we have, and stopping it outright should be a large concern. Deportation should be done, for the slightest of crimes seeing as they are already breaking the law by being here. That being said there should also be a way for them to become American citizens which fosters assimilation into the American people and its culture along with "learning" English. (I feel if they haven't even attempted to learn English they are a waste unless they were really old when they came over. I'd build a wall not unlike the Berlin wall if I had to, to keep them out. But then Trump turns around and makes an ### of himself, not to many a surprise, and seems to merely be burying himself further.
  7. I hate outside the box thinking, to be perfectly honest. Just move Columbus to the West and switch Carolina with Florida and Tampa division wise. Lastly add a 24th roster spot to all the teams. Then a team can carry 2 Fs and 2 Ds extra. There's no need for radical changes or convoluted systems, add two teams and be done with it for another 15 or so years.
  8. The guy I'd target is Krug, the guy puts up points, is a solid player, and is an American who played well with Eichel
  9. No to all of them, Byfuglien and Kane won't go together all that well and I'm unwilling to trade 2016 1st seeing as its in Buffalo this year. I want us to use it!
  10. I feel he'll get 25 to 30 this year. Mainly because this time we'll actually have a system for him to play in, and his strengths will be more utilized then. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NBDQO2nrEvo Just watch the video, almost every goal is a one timer or a rebound, and those were rare during the season since aside from Ennis, Girgs, and Gionta near the end, we had no one able to sustain the pressure to allow him to sit out in front. Not to mention few could get the pass to him where he could fire it on net.
  11. It was a hypothetical; but I certainly feel it's overlooking faceoff importance. Are all of them important, no, but to say only a couple a game are important is a tad extreme
  12. I am too young to actually remember him, but I can easily see why he was so beloved. His voice was awesome in any highlights of the old Bills, may he rest in peace. Sad he's passed on, but I guess Ralph Wilson set up a team in Heaven and wanted his announcer back. :angel:
  13. Where do the Sabres finish: (8th) Eastern Conference Finals: (TBL v.s. PIT) (Game 6) Western Conference Finals: (Calgary vs ANA) (Game 7) Stanley Cup Finals: (Calgary vs TBL) Stanley Cup Winners: (TBL) Rocket Richard Trophy: (Ovechkin) Hart Trophy: (Crosby) Vezina Trophy: (Price) Norris (defenseman): (Hedman) Jack Adams (coach): (Bylsma) (Sabres go from 30th to 15th, and go 7 games with Montreal who is then swept by TBL) Calder Trophy: (Eichel) Bonus: Who will be the biggest name moved during the season? Eric Staal Bonus: How many Buffalo Sabres participate in the All Star Game? (4: Eichel, Kane, O'Reilly, Girgensons) Girgensons gets the Latvian backing 2 years running thus forcing the NHL to change the fan vote system. Bonus: Biggest bounce back season by any player? (Brian Gionta, puts 25g,40a, 65pts in 75 games) (Caused by injuries to Ennis and Moulson thus he ends up on the 2nd line)
  14. 1st and 3rd I agree with, the second I still feel is being under appreciated for how it can affect the flow of a game. If you win every faceoff in your own zone, there's a good chance no offense will come from that time.
  15. Eichel, Reinhart, Girgs, O'Reilly, Kane, Ennis, Moulson It was in terms of forwards. Defense-wise, Risto, Bogo, Pysyk, and McCabe are untouchable. Granted McCabe would be "touchable" if if its a legit top pairing guy who's under 27. Moulson I just like for some unknown reason lol. Guess maybe because he's a legit Bills fan like many of us.
  16. I'm starting to have a tiny doubt we'll be able to get any good LDs by season's start. And I refuse to trade any of the Top 7.
  17. Won a Calder, reminds a tiny bit of Myers in the way he struggled but seems to be getting better again. Yet he has a bit of a dirty streak so that is an added bonus. And he's a good guy as evidenced by his friendship with the disabled boy whom he converses with very often and has kept in touch with him as he's traveled.
  18. At this point I'd be open to acquiring Del Zotto for cheap, maybe put him with Pysyk? He's only 24 and has scored more goals in a season than Franson has twice already. Plus he's pretty physical, 150 hits or so.
  19. Nope and nope. Gionta is the C until his contract ends, then he retires. We've traded our last 5 captains or so. Ott, Vanek, Pominville, Rivet(was released), Campbell(was captain for a month)
  20. Maybe Larsson and a 3rd gets us Weircioch? I'm completely unsure of their respective value to be honest.
  21. If he is sentenced to anything that may hurt him playing 82 games next year then we are honestly cursed to forever lack championships
  22. Was there a jump scare or something, it sounds like she had the scared right out of her.....
  23. Eichel looked as he during the world championships toward the beginning. I think the start of the season will be a lot like this. However by game 10 to 15, he wi I think the start of the season will be a lot like this. However by game 10 to 15, will be far better. Reinhart looked as we had hoped he would last year. Blue had the better goaltending all night.
  24. Like Communism, the trickle down approach relies on too much wishful thinking; however it is far closer to the ideal economy where work=fair compensation, those who are successful get to enjoy said success, and few to no people are trapped in poverty. Granted some will always be since they have no interest in fixing that. However I do love Reagan, he did well in bipartisanship by what I can see, made us proud to be American, got us away from Carter's incompetence, and gave the deathblow to the USSR.
  25. The first pair isn't bad, the other 2 + 1 are questionable.
