I’d play him over every single player he scored more than last year Easy The sabres won the division the last year he wasn’t owner

He didn’t suck relative to our other players, that’s the point. It’s such a disingenuous cherry pick to only hold him to the standard of last year yet look to the better performance from earlier years of the other players. He had a down year and STILL paced for over 50 points last year. He fits literally anywhere on the team. Im not going to “move on” because the team gave me no reason to because they didn’t roster a player for his $ I can talk about

This stinks. Feel bad for those in attendance

lol he paced for 27 goals over 82 last year and that’s after we made him the scapegoat for our issues in the latter half fine, we had “no room for a 27 goal scorer”. What an arbitrary hill to die on. Skinner was a pretty good player. We cut him and replaced him with nothing. That’s not arguably a good strategy. It’s inarguably a bad one

It’s not fun at all in a Sabres relative sense. Just fun in terms of the draft being fun in general if you love hockey. It doesn’t become more interesting with the sabres getting a higher pick anymore because high picks don’t translate to wins for this team. There’s no more consolation

Did I tho

I’d even be good with the Black Keys again

All too easy..

We are winning this. We’re gonna do it.

I expect a win tbh, because we probably have to. This is an Event game. Tuch with a good game for sure: 1 G, 2A WOOOOs at the camera at the end

“Laugh or Cry?” is the name of the new commercial-break fan cam segment

Product on the ice? Our sad devotion to that ancient religion has not helped us conjure up entertainment value or given us clairvoyance enough to better understand the sport, in the way the scoreboard will

Well, not everyone

The fact a team with a way better setup acted with more urgency than us in the offseason is the rub

So the guy we had “no room for”, in Olofsson, owing to our air-tight forward ranks looks good on another team? Shocked, i say

Apparently, the ability to torpedo the results of 12 games rather than 12 years

Would like to see something nice from Quinn, and Thompson

What a great decision. Individual goal songs is so weird. Score and win as a team. Plus the majority of them sounded nothing at all like goal songs. Just keep it simple, something the crowd can jam to

Two 60 point d-men would be rather absurd. It’s hard to see a situation where Joki is holding back the D core imo given that context If Tage is scoring 50, there’s going to be a lot of guys with a lot of assists, etc etc If Thompson hits 50, we have 2 60 point D men, and Kulich has 20: I’ll wager we are top 3 in conference If not higher

Maybe, but upon quick perusal: there wasn’t a single NHL team last year with 2 of those 3 I’d imagine any two of: 50 goal scorer, 20 goal rookie scorer, and two 60 point D men (if power gets 60 Dahlin will) would essentially guarantee not only a spot but a high seeding

I don’t think so. You don’t need a 50 goal scorer and a second 60 point D man to make the playoffs

In order of likelihood most likely to least, I’ll guess: 1) Levi outperforms UPL 2) Sabres make playoffs - - - 3) Kulich 20 goals 4) Power 60 points 5) Tage 50 goals
