Looks to me like Eakin is in the lineup.

That’s a good point. Except most seasons start in October and are over for the Sabres by the end of December. This one started in January and it’s over in March. The usual 3 months. Maybe slightly accelerated.

Between Black Sunday, The Tank, Ville Leino, the ROR trade, and multiple GM/coaching changes, there’s been a lot of dark days. It’s hard to pinpoint which has been the lowest. For me, it’s a never ending nightmare, and debating which point has been the lowest, is the lowest point.

WPOP

Yeah, the Sabres are giving away a G they spent a 3rd round pick on, spent 7 years developing, was an AHL all-star last season, played in a handful of NHL games behind a team that can’t score and plays bad D. Ship him out for a 6th round pick. Makes sense. Capable goaltending grows on trees I guess.

Yeah. It’s called pop.

Youd be surprised at what a mob of drunk Bills fans can do.

Soooooo.....if I want to win my beer league, this is the guy to call?

Okay. Nobody. Let’s just embrace stupidity and never learn.

So far, in his young career, yes. Meanwhile, Houser is a career ECHLer.

I don’t think I’ve seen many Ford vs GM debates on here.

Can you imagine if JA struggles through the first couple weeks of the season? The wolves will be howling for a guy named Mitchell.

I guess it’s 12 with another possible 10.

It’s now up to 12.

Paula’s has some excellent ones.

That sounds like when people order a pizza, and get offered another pizza for free when the first one was awful. Oh, wait. You’re talking about people who had tickets to tomorrow’s game - not the people who went last night.

I will second this. Their authentic reactions made me tear up, thinking about my mother that I lost to cancer 14 years ago. It’s a small gesture, but meaningful.

What does “engrained” mean?

What? LOL

Why are you bringing up Staal in a thread about Dahlin?

I guess 1.5 years of a coach who wants you to think about backchecking first does that. Anyone with offensive instincts got neutered.

If he loves what he does, than it’s not. He is allowed to keep calling games until he dies or the Sabres win a Cup. There will never be another RJ.

This is blasphemy. He’s a certified treasure.

Slightly. They are even with the Bruins in hits, faceoffs, and blocked shots. The play has been more energetic and consistent so far. Still much to improve on. Down 3-1 and shots are 26-16 Bruins.
