  1. Rosen is the same age JJP was when he made the NHL. However yes, neither Rosen nor Kulich are NHL ready and should marinate in the AHL which they have been doing for basically the entire season to date. I would give both Rosen and Kulich a full year in the AHL (which so far seems to be the plan barring the injury hellscape we live in).
  2. No, they do not. No one on the freaking planet would leave a guy that is 21 and a former first round pick (top 10 btw) in the AHL after they put up 1.35ppg including 25g in 45 games especially in the cap era. Buffalo got 37pts including 14g and a very solid 2-way game from Jack Quinn. He wasn't rushed, he came up precisely when he should have and he stayed because he was good. Look at Peterka, almost the same thing and because he played last year he is currently in his sophomore season and doing extremely well. The guy had just under 1pgg in the AHL and put up 32pts last year and his currently at 18pts and 10g this year. What part of him was rushed? Focus on actual problems, this wasn't one of them. All good teams bring up their youth when they are ready and in the NHL that typically happens between the ages of 20-23. Saying that Jack Quinn or JJ Peterka were rushed out of the AHL is complete nonsense. Professional goalies make those saves sometimes, when will Buffalo have a goalie that will?
  3. No it hasn't. Levi and Comrie were awful and UPL is average.
  4. Name names. Which young guys are just left to their own devices and not getting better? Quinn? Peterka? Rosen? Kulich? Which one?
  5. No, a fall guy is someone you use and then blame. That's not what Adams is. I don't believe it. Our analytics department deserves more credit.
  6. No it wasn't. He was here because Pegula can trust him and he works well with TP. If Pegula hired Forton to be GM, I might honestly be done. That's just awful.
  7. No they were not. Jack Quinn destroyed the AHL, was 21, and proved himself very capable last year. Peterka took a big jump this year and was okay last year. No they were not rushed. Focus on actual problems. Quinn and Peterka aren't that.
  8. This team is broken.
  9. Lol, you could trade power or Cozens tomorrow if you wanted to.
  10. Because he's good at it
  11. Coaches: Alright guys here's the plan, we pass it from the point to the half wall and then back to the point, got it? Players: When do we shoot? Coaches: That's the beauty of it, you don't.
  12. I honestly might not watch more. This team has no... swagger, guts, grit, brains, determination. They need to grow up fast or yet again, another loser season.
  13. Maybe we'll actually show up and try for 60 minutes
  14. There's no reason for first round nhl picks to be FORCED to stay in a league that's below them for an additional year post draft. You go back for your post draft year and if you went in the first that's it. D+1 and done.
  15. This reminds me of the Bills offense where you can tell it's off and no one seems to want to fix it. They need to wake up or this season is over... again... like every other f-ing season for the last decade. We need the confused emoji back. No, they shouldn't have last year and no they currently shouldn't this year. They can play at last year's levels but so far don't seem to be bothered with doing the hard work in game to do that.
  16. They outshoot St Louis 46-20, they were the better team last night but not where it mattered.
  17. https://www.espn.com/college-football/game/_/gameId/332710061 LSU v. Georgia in 2013. I was at a bar not in the stadium but I was standing on their 2nd floor outdoor patio watching on a TV. We could hear the stadium when Georgia scored (about .5miles away) while the ball was in the air for the go ahead TD. One of the best games I have ever watched and the atmosphere in Athens, GA was nuts. After the game the friends who were at the game met up with a big group of us who were not and we all relived the game over again, while being in what I can only describe as a Mardi Gras like atmosphere. Absolute blast.
