Wowzer. What was the attendance in Buffalo last night?

Oh man, I laughed out loud for that one.

He may have but I know liger was also. I remember rolling my eyes anytime there was an update on him hahaha.

I have to give props where it's due. Liger has raved about this guy since almost the day he was drafted. He's a 7th round pick and I just gave it absolutely zero attention. He may still turn into nothing but he's certainly on my radar now and I'm very much looking forward to seeing what he can do in NA next season.

That's a good point. When I started watching the highlight I didn't know which guy was mittlestadt until he made that sweet move at centre ice and just knew that had to be him.

I read about it in the GDT. Then another thread. I'm so glad someone could find that video. Way to late for me to stay up but what a sequence that was!!

Win two in a row, now we're buyers.

I would love to see Jack and ROR together once Mittlestud/Asplund arrive.

Atleast tonight and tomorrow are 9pm starts. I can't see me making the whole Thursday night game.

Well I've been coming down here for years now. Usually around 3 or 4 games per year. I always stay until the end, can never understand the fans who leave early to beat the traffic. Until today. I left after the second period. Couldn't watch the third. Rather spend time at the hotel pool than hear the Dallas fans in the arena giddly high fiving. What a disgrace......

Ill be there! Let's go buffalo!!

Wow, I was looking up the last two game winning streak thinking you had to be wrong. Nope, it was in October.

As in he's sick and tired of consistently being the worst player on the ice and if the coaching staff won't bench him then he will take himself out of the lineup.

I'm with you dudacek. The core is rotten and Kane and O'Reilly are the first guys I'm looking at. With lord and savior Casey on the way and our horrendous D, I would be all in on trading those guys for a young dman or two.

I'm trying to pretend Nylander doesn't exist. If he contributes in a few years great. I'm not counting on it. It's picks like that that set this franchise back enormously. Even if he was in Roch all year but playing well the hope/anticipation for next season would be back. Right now I have no hope for next year as Casey lord and savior should spend one more year in either NCAA or Roch.

Good riddance to anyone who wants to jump ship.

I have loved Guhle. His speed and willingness to jump into the offensive zone is a breath of fresh air. Sure he looks like a rookie in the D zone but man, you can't teach that speed. Ullmark looked pretty good. Agree that rebound control was a bit of an issue and he got lucky with a couple of posts but one goal on 45 shots or whatever? That's still impressive. He sure looks like the goalie of the future. Saying that, let both guys finish the year in Roch with maybe one more late season callup. Keep them away from this tire fire.

True.

I agree with Liger's logic as well. Having said that, eating Bogo's contract the next two years is brutal.

Why you guys bringing up these memories? I miss those teams. By the way that may have been Foligno's first game as a Sabre (it was around then) and it was also his best game as a Sabre. Really thought he would of turned into something more after watching that one.

I would think a Reinhart trade would come in the offseason.

We sure are.

And now I have a reason to watch.....

Ugh. That's a horrible list. This rebuild or whatever you want to call it is not going to be very quick. I know it'll take time to develop prospects but I'm hoping we can get a first for Kane. We also need to hit one out of the park this coming draft. Whether it be our likely high first rounder and/or a later pick. Other teams seem to hit on non-first round picks. Why can't we? Guhle looks promising but who's the last one? Other than McCabe it's few and far between the past 6 or 7 years.

Liger, don't bring stats into the Eichel bashing. Not even calling out the other poster, I've seen some pretty heavy criticism of Jack. Got into it with my uncle over the holidays. He's not only on pace for the highest point total of any Sabre over the past decade but he's doing it on a team that is historically bad at scoring goals. This isn't the 05-07 Sabres, obviously. On top of that the PP sucks and most these points are coming at even strength. Yes the team sucks. No Jack Eichel does not suck.
