  1. You’ve collected roughly 15 awesome emojis for posting the lineup 3/4 times lol that is to say: I think people are quite done with Olofsson
  2. Always look forward to awesome competitive October baseball. This has NOT been that. Combined records of series winners / teams leading series if Texas holds on today: 22-2 that is INSANE. boring. Series scores: 2-0 2-0 2-0 2-0 3-0 3-0 3-1 3-1 2-0* Yikes *pending today’s Houston /Texas result
  3. If this is the case, I’d probably take at least a swing at switching VO out for the best looking rookie. I’d sacrifice the guys losing a bit of camaraderie
  4. Ok, well then my answer to the question under those parameters is that I’d keep VO on the roster as I trust KA’s evaluation skills. He sure looks right on Benson. I like the swaps he’s made, so, I don’t believe I have any issues with his skills as a negotiator. (Not to mention, the contracts). Also, more evidence of strong pro scouting. I suppose if I had a guess then, based on the results achieved thus far and subject to change at the drop of a hat based on such, I’d say I merely have a strategic difference with Adams. If we were playing chess, I think I’d be a fair bit more willing to make sacrifices to get what I want.
  5. Why do we think Adams rostered Olofsson?
  6. True enough. But it was only temporarily closed for renos, that’s why I got Chinese
  7. For goal scorers next game I’ve got Benson, Krebs, Power, and Cody Franson
  8. Re: Tage Thompson Last season, Tage had 12 streaks of 2 games or more where he didn’t register a goal Tage was goal-less in 44 of 78 games played: 56%. The majority of Sabres hockey games, Thompson did not score. He finished 6th overall for goals this is sorta just how goal scorers do and how math does in a broader sense it’s why McDavid doesn’t win the cup build a great team!
  9. Yep. If a young guy is the best option, he should play. Granato has to do the best he can with the options Adams left to him
  10. He’s trying very hard, and his strategy has been successfully implemented, and maintained whether it’s objectively successful relative to the league remains to be seen
  11. if you want more detail than this you’ll need to find someone much smarter
  12. We should be aiming higher than yet another rookie under the “next man up” strategy If a rookie truly represents our best option..that’s even worse
  13. The bold is assuredly not good, but the rest is well-said
  14. I agree. If we are good: full credit Adams If we are bad: Adams couldn’t have done any better It’s a good point
  15. Picked up right where he left off as the best player in the league from last year’s playoffs
  16. This was the year we were supposed to be able to shift these guys in to provide support to an already well-oiled machine. As of now, yet again, we are asking them the carry the mail. But, only 2 games. I’d imagine our top guys start shifting the balance a bit Whatever the number is, it’s relative to the rest of the roster Legit lol’ed
  17. We just have to start rolling with the punches a little bit
  18. They played much better today and there are guys who almost inconceivably won’t get better so I’m sure we’ll start winning at a more reasonable clip soon. Playoff team? Remains to be seen I hate Razoring out but “not a bad game”
  19. Better light Power’s fuse now, it’ll take a while
  20. I just propose the thinly veiled defences I don’t back them up with analytical data
  21. I wouldn’t say no to a few additional metapods on D to your point, I’m not sure if we have the time to fart around looking for pikachu also thanks the viridian city song is now stuck in my head
