SABRES 0311

I like how Benson can deflect off body checks. Keeps himself in the play.

Dahlin is like the Datsyuk of DMen.

Almost

Benson 🤣 Im not laughing at him, just the situation. He’s definitely NHL caliber right now and I really thought he had his first.

TANK ON! TANK ON!

Well that’s game.

Granato should review all PPs. If shooting would have been a better option than passing, the player skates laps during practice. Embarrass stupidity

A true 90s fourth line.

Yeah, KO is about done as an NHL caliber player.

PP is a

Thought about this the whole way to work. Another veteran top four dman and top six forward would be nice. Power is a train wreck. Put Muel with him to cover his defensive ineptitude. Joker with Dahlin and keep the J&J pair. Put Clifton in the press box for 65 games. Skinner Mitts TBD Peterka Cozens TBD Greenway Jost TBD Girgs Krebs KO TBDs are some type of VO, Rousek, and Kulich. They get replaced with Tuch, Quinn, and Benson as they return, respectively. If they can acquire a top six forward not named Kane it would help now and when our broke guys return. I really miss the Greenway Mitts Benson line.

Absolutely not. Those two remind me of the Philly’s mascot.

Are you trying to say DG and KA can’t hit a curveball?

It’s not a serious thing. More of an unofficial tradition and lighthearted way to start the GDT. Its Mostly Whiners who complain about it. J/k😅

Buffalo would almost certainly get a new team down the road. I’d root for the current team if they moved because it’s the same team, different city. Already know the players and the history. No way I will root for the Rags, Isles, dare I say Laughs.

I think I would root for wherever the Sabres move to. It would be weird but is what it is.

Remember, it’s a long season. In no way is that meant to sound positive.

Watching the game on delay. Just saw the third Bruins goal. I’m guessing the live feed is not much better. Oh we’ll. Buffalo sports are what they are. Maybe Kane will change everything 😆

Look at the bright side. Pretty soon we’ll be able to focus solely on the Sabres

Is it the best answer for team success they can come up with or the best answer to keep fans engaged? I don’t know but I am worried it’s the latter.

My take on Kane coming to Buffalo is more negative. I’m not attacking anyone else’s view it’s just that I’m more pessimistic about this. He’s 34 and recently had what I can only guess is a major hip surgery. If he was 24 and had the same surgery I probably wouldn’t think twice about it. As I previously mentioned, his guilt or innocence will cause division in the fan base. Whether it’s negligible is yet to be seen. I doubt it impacts the on ice product. We literally went down this road a couple years ago with Staal and Hall. Well known player signs with an underperforming and dare I say uninspiring team. Fans (myself included) get excited. Turns out to be a waste of time. It’s already been 15 games. It will take a few more until he is in game shape and integrated with his linemates. It may take even more to find the right linemates. This in turn may have a ripple effect where established Sabres have to figure out how to play with new linemates. Just spit balling but I’d say by game 25 is when things will settle which leaves around 55-57 games left to fix the damage our record has caused. The consensus is Kane is an upgrade on the PP. So this one guy is going to have such an impact on the PP we make the playoffs despite have a sub .500 record right now? I guess my frustration is that this is the best answer the organization can come up with.

Right or wrong there are people who think he’s innocent and guilty. There will be division to some extent. I would have been more open to Kane coming to Buffalo in his prime. Something tells me it’ll be Staal 2.0 just so he retires as a member of his hometown childhood team. As fans we’ll hope for the best and justify his presence if it happens.

This team needs to drink more milk? How many man games have they lost due to injuries?

I’m a little concerned for this team now. I really thought they’d be in a better position at this point.
