For the ice keepers sake, I'm glad this isn't Eichel bobblhead night.

Broad side of a barn???

I think Dahlin is mentally fatigued.

Unfortunate. Very believable.

After the last game in Detroit, I'm going Bellichek. "I'm on to the Bills now".

I'd make the argument that 8 years (and counting) with no playoffs in the NHL is longer than 30 years drilling in the gas business. Hopefully, Terry gets this right before 30 years! ?

Disagree with the RW. I'd go Reinhart, Nylander, Okposo, Wilson.

Great info Zamboni. I stand corrected.

Sabres HAVE to score first in this game. If not, I see a repeat of last night's clunker.

We have to expose a goalie and I thought it would be Hutton as opposed to Linus (if Linus is resigned). Not concerned about losing Hutton, quite the contrary.

McCabe is a warrior. Need more like hm.

Just when you think you're out, this board sucks you back in again. Welcome back for the final 4!

Terry needs to look at this situation like he did in his fracking business. PH is an asset just like a new gas well is an asset. He drilled for gas for 2 years and the well came up dry despite all the initial reports that there was an abundance of gas there. Would he keep drilling that well and throw good money after bad, year after year? If he's smart, no. He'd cut his losses and move on to another well (Coach). Terry, as we know with his crying at the mention of Perreault's name. takes human decisions too personally. Look, PH will be fine. He's already rich and will still get paid for another year on his current contract. He should be concerned about the feelings of the people that support his business, i.e. fans and sponsors.

But that's how we got the culture of "losing is OK" that we have now. When does it stop??

Isn't Hutton our sacrificial lamb for the Seattle expansion?

I think if the Amerks make a good run in the playoffs (or win it all), Chris Taylor is the next coach of the Sabres.

Same notice-ability. But he did show off his elite shot. Must. Play. Hard. for 60 minutes. That's all I ask at this point. Go Sabres!!

I'd let go PH before the year end presser and the interviews. Before the presser to preserve him going through the reporters gauntlet. And before the player interviews so they can be honest with no fear of any retribution.

Kid's got an elite shot. Would have liked to see him on the big club sooner.

They have to fire PH. Who would renew ST with him back and merely a few new faces. I've said it before, Terry is not a great executive. He ran a family business and fracked at the right time, and got out at the right time. Good for him and his billions. More upsetting is that I think Terry has more business acumen than Kim.

Watching all 82 is a badge of honor I really, really earned this year. All things considered, I think Jack has done a good job with the press. Have to remember he's still only 22. I was still stumbling home most nights at that age.

Caught me after a few Jack Daniels!! Misery. But I have to say the team has been a mystery at times the year as well.

I'll say this about this season. If not for this board, I may have found a better use of my time than watching every game. But mystery loves company and there are a lot of real funny f**kers that post here. I'll be here, watching the boys play, through thick and thin.

With @Doohickie leaving and @PASabreFan threatening, is anyone still going to be here for the last 4 games. I hate posting to myself.

Borgen with 10-15 extra pounds is gonna be a good one for a long time.
