Anyone disappointed we didnt get a 2c?

Is that not what every requested trade basically is? It is usually because they're unhappy with their playing time and would stay if it changes

What happened to their 7th?

He asked for a trade a while ago

Sabres website will

Mark stone is better offensively and 1000x better defensively. This isnt too bad for us

Was really hoping we would pick up Wennberg or another potential 2C to save the season

Tage is an intriguing player. I feel if he can put his game together he could be an interesting player

Good that their battle got rewarded. Encourages in future

If you are in the box you cant shoot right?

That fourth line is great. I want them to score, but man are they good at grinding the other team down and forcing them to work to do even the simple plays

True although I feel this is going to go the way it always does and 'addition by subtraction' will start to be thrown around. We have traded away a lot of players for dust. I'd rather have Risto than another pick that could possibly become another Risto in 5 years

I personally don't understand the Risto hate. He isn't a number 1 D but is forced to play as one. I think it is telling that like 8 different coaches have used him so heavily - clearly professional coaches like him

When we traded O'Reilly he was pencilled in as our number 2 centre. I agree it isnt fair, but it seems like it was the intended plan

We need Reinhart and Middlestat to start doing something useful offensively

The shift to a speedier NHL has been a part of his success I think - it plays to his strengths

The second was much better than the first. Time to see what happens in the third... Although I don’t think they win, I actually think this team could pull it back in way the sabres never would have for the last few hears

Dahlin is having a really nice game defensively

One crossbar, one post and a disallowed goal. I don’t think we’re playing great but it isn’t as bad as people are making t sound

We looked better than the scoreboard shows

Dahlin definitely looking like a rookie this game. But he’ll recover

Lehner with a 35 save shutout in his season debut

Good period. Felt like we controlled the flow most of it. Some nice quick puck recoveries

I thought he was our best D... at 18 years old Defence never look as flashy as forwards, so I don't think he will wow as often

What did he say?
