  1. Realistically it’s hard to be a Sabres fan regardless of where you live. Living in Winnipeg has only ever made me dislike the Jets and become jealous of their success relative to my team but then again I can be a petty a-hole sometimes Consider for a moment there are infinite alternate parallel universes (there are):
  2. If we go 29-0 to wrap up we can get to 108 points would have been good for 3rd in Atlantic last year. Nothing to schnozzz at
  3. The Buffalo Sabres will inevitably, eventually make the playoffs it will happen A new day will come. And when the sun shines, it’ll shine out the clearer
  4. No goalie could be the reason we lost in a game we don’t score. It doesn’t really say anything The presence of an issue doesn’t preclude the existence of another issue, I never understand this logic
  5. His mindset reminds me of Kevyn Adams tbh. Two of the guys I feel like I know the very least about in the organization. Everything they say comes off like a 2D stock quote
  6. We have to seriously start considering the possibility the Sabres won’t win 3 in a row this entire season has that happened to any team in recent memory?
  7. They definitely seem to play better when confident in their goalie. It’s anecdotal, I could be wrong. Certainly feels that way. Record seems to reflect it. Powerplay is an entirely different issue The thing about Comrie is he’s objectively bad. There aren’t any arguments in his favour. His numbers aren’t NHL worthy, below replacement. If someone can defend Comrie, they can defend anyone
  8. Reffing isn’t Sabres biased but it’s definitely young players biased. refs feel the need to “learn ‘em” it’s rather a joke, yes
  9. Yes understandable on a human level. I suppose I feel like the context being “paid professionals” went without saying
  10. Tend to be a different team when they need to protect a beer league goalie
  11. Does Adams want to be there?
  12. That’s not really how stats work but, I am getting to agree with you on Don
  13. Was mentioning last game they tend to be front runners
  14. Reminded me of when Kane had an open net here in winnipeg and he deferred to Reinhart to get the hat trick
  15. It’s just a shame the team has to sacrifice so much of their free-wheeling offence when he’s in net. They really, really have to baby him back there since he’s not an NHL caliber goalie
  16. Duff cackling about Reinhart’s EN pass We saw a lot of career year anomalies last year
  17. Dude rules
  18. Florida played yesterday, right? Maybe they’ll slow down in the third
  19. Maybe they should let Terry have a try at the book, honestly
  20. Very understandable? Totally disagree Some were screaming against the viability of a run it back approach after multiple career years. Hindsight need not apply: the off-season looked bad at the time. And worse now.
  21. This is a meaningful stat “this regime isn’t amendable to past failures” need not apply He is saying it in defence of the Sabres
  22. Certainly jives with the feeling the priority hasn’t been winning. Damn.
  23. Exactly. Fool me once..shame on..shame on..you? Point is, can’t get fooled again with the goalie approach
  24. Ya I mean assigning fault is subjective He bridged Reinhart, that’s all I said
  25. It’s just difficult with Reino because he went on record saying he was open to a long term extension I don’t think he’s a 7 mil player yet. No, I don’t mind the contract there. For reasons opposite to why I dislike MS’s.
