  1. On Sabres Live today they discussed whether Kulich, who is eligible to play for the Amerks in the playoffs, should. Marty said he doesn’t think he should go back, he’s proven he’s a NHL player, and it would take the roster spot of another prospect. I think that’s ridiculous. He would greatly enhance their roster, especially if Kozak isn’t healthy to play. The Amerk fans deserve the best roster possible.
  2. I’d rather have had O’Reilly, and a GM and coach who surrounded him with players who knew how to win a Stanley Cup, and his Conn Smythe trophy, as was the case in St Louis. For all his accomplishments Tage hasn’t gotten the Sabres any closer to the playoffs.
  3. The team that gets the best player wins the trade, regardless of how many players are involved. Granted Adams had a proverbial gun to his head, but it was his decisions that got them to that point.
  4. Christian Ehrhoff signed a 10-year, $40 million contract with the Sabres as a free agent in 2011 after two consecutive 14-goal seasons with the Vancouver Canucks. He was bought out by Buffalo after just three seasons in 2014, leaving the team with an annual payment of $857,143 for 14 years, and will receive checks through 2027-28.
  5. We don’t necessarily need to just build through the draft, but use the high draft picks and prospects to acquire veterans to blend in with the younger players. And the higher the pick, the better the potential.
  6. If he finishes strong then Adams should use him in a trade package to acquire a top 4 defensive defenseman. They have McLeod and Kozak to fill the bottom 2 center positions, with Norris and Kulick in top 2. And who knows if Östlund will push for a spot.
  7. They were a chain. There was another one on Bailey Ave near Delivan Ave.
  8. The Sabres play great when there’s no pressure to win. They still have to figure it out when the games mean something.
  9. I don’t like it. The Amerks have 2 games this weekend as they’re trying to catch Laval for 1st place and need their top players. The Sabres aren’t going anywhere and could have either moved Tage to center and pushed Krebs down to the 4th line, or call up Dunne again. Let the kids cook in Rochester.
  10. I was going to retire in July 2020, but since I had to work from home and there was nowhere to go anyways, I delayed it until July 2021 when normalcy returned. My wife and I have lost more value this year in our retirement investments than we made in salaries when working. Fortunately we made a lot of gains over the past couple of years. But I sympathize with your predicament.
  11. They still need a top 6 forward who can score 30+ goals.
  12. It gets a higher draft position, and erases the belief that this team is better than they really are. The defense has be caught out of position on all the Philly goals.
  13. If they have to lose eventually, I won’t mind if it’s this game. There’s no benefit at this point in moving up in the standings.
  14. I’ve thought since he was hired that might be the long term plan. Lindy moves up after getting them to the playoffs next year, and Appert takes over as head coach. Otherwise it’s a complete housecleaning.
  15. There’s been a moose in Rochester since the ‘80s. You didn’t say which kind.
  16. NCAA Women’s Frozen Four championship game had Ohio State ahead of Wisconsin 3-2. OS got a penalty with less than 2 minutes in 3rd. Then with 18 seconds left and still ahead 3-2 OS got called for putting a hand over the puck in crease. Wisconsin was given the option of another penalty or a penalty shot. So Wisconsin took the penalty shot and scored. Game went to OT and Wisconsin won the championship.
  17. The Moose has been their mascot since the ‘80s when it was adopted from radio station WMJQ.
  18. Amerks win 4-3 with Bills inspired jerseys.
  19. Named after Byram? They should at least wait until they see if he resigns.
