matter2003

Dude, you really should go back and watch highlights from that year...they were phenomenal to watch...it was like the best game of the Eichel line every night the entire year

I think Pilut might be ready to be a contributor at the NHL level already...he has made several very nice plays in the offensive zone leading to goals...his defense has been a little shaky but overall he has played very well...sucks he is going to be out a while...

He is still very young...it won't hurt to keep him in the AHL for a few more years of seasoning...

Ehh...I don't think so...LaFontaine, Mogilny and Andreychuk was something out of this world in '92-93... Lafontaine had 40 points after 18 games and 100 by his 55th game... Goal totals for the line mates that year? LaFontaine 53, Andreychuck 54, Mogilny 76 But that's not taking anything away from these guys, they are fantastic...a little bit of a different era back then but those numbers were prodigious even back then... Those 3 accounted for 54.6%(183) of the Sabres' 335 goals that year. The Eichel/Skinner/Samson line has accounted for 43.8%(43) of the teams 105 goals this year... In 1992-1993 they also played 84 games

I dunno about that, but I know he is turning into a great 2 way player and has really picked his game up the past 6 or 7 games...he's been downright dominant

Just catapulted himself to 5th overall in the scoring race

Mittlestadt might be green but he has more talent in the toe of his right skate blade than Berglund has ever had... Really bad look by a guy on a team that is winning and playing relatively well.

Metrics don't always mesh with reality

Yup...nice to be on the other side of finding out how hard it is to leapfrog a bunch of teams to make up points when there are loser points to be had... Simply going .500 in points the rest of the way lands us with 92 points at this juncture...

Skinner with the winner winner chicken dinner!!!

I hear from recruiters via phone or email almost daily it seems like...if I would have known this is what it would be like once your resume got out there as a software engineer/developer, I would have tried to keep it on the downlow, hahaha... Just like R Kelly... "Keep it on the downlow....nobody haaaassss to knowwwww....."

I had a similar situation a while back...after 3 weeks I basically figured I didn't get it, but then after 2 more weeks they called me and told me they wanted to offer me the position...lots of approvals, etc were needed or something...either way I took the job.

That was an absolute rocket by Matthews...I dont know if there is a goalie on the planet who could have stopped that shot... This series is going to be a lot of fun to watch for the next 10 years...

I want the Sabres to wipe that stupid smirk off Laviolettes face. God I still hate that guy...

Skinner an A-?? Dude should be an A with so many plusses you run out of space

The result they deserved in the end...probably didn't deserve a point but they got one anyway.

Sabres really looked fatigued tonight...good job to hang on for a point...Pilut has had a rough game as well...

Skinner with 20!

The Golden Girls brought their friends to sing the National Anthem?

Just be happy its not like Boston where Chara and Bergeron are out extended periods of time.

No shame in losing to a great team on the road in a close game...they played with them all night, just couldnt finish at the end. Tampa Bay deserved to win that game.

About ***** time...they've been getting away with it all game...

We have them right where we want them...tied in the 3rd... On another note when is TB going to get called for their little stickwork moves away from the play? Sabres always seem to be on the ice moving away from the play

Great kill by the Sabres...

Wrong player...Girardi got hit by Thompson on the knee
