Well said. The players and coaches absolutely will be trying to win every game. I can't even imagine TN not or else he would likely up and quit. But as you said, this comes down to Tim Murray. Who in the past has openly stated he can adjust his team at the trade deadline to ensure a successful tank. In Tim I trust and I think the Grigo case is only the first in sending guys to Roch in favour of 'player development'.

Sure there are fairweather fans of the Sabres (like anywhere). But I feel the Buffalo fan base has a great understanding of their current team. Look to the Prospects glorified scrimmage in June as an example. Sure it was free but the house was well over half full and it was only the young guns out there. People recognize the future of this team is in those prospects.

Sabres name Brian Gionta 27th team captain; Gorges and Moulson get As
Derrico replied to Hoss's topic in The Aud Club
I expected it too but glad he didn't. Good choices all around. -
If correct then I have no problem with the decision either. Let's just hope Gionta doesn't get traded at the deadline now.
-
That's a similar situation to what happened with Grigo when he was sent back last year. Although I'm sure if London has the opportunity to get Zad back this year they will do what they have to do to make room for him.

Ok thanks for clearing that up. The Blue has 5 bench spots so ours must have more rounds. -

That's a good question. Because there are several IR spots. Can guys like Drouin be drafted who will start on IR? If so do we get an additional pick at the end of the draft? -
Not surprisingly the Lions release Henry today.

Not Active Players. Players that have been sent to the minors. -
He may have been one of the best players in the exhibition games that we all saw but I think it's crazy after 4 or 5 preseason games to think he is one of the best players on the team at this point. There was one centre spot open and they're giving the second overall pick the first crack at it with a 9 game audition. He got screwed over by the way Darcy handled him but I have no problem putting him in Roch for a few months.

I'm mildly surprised by the Grigo news as he has looked miles better than I thought he would in the games I did catch. As someone else pointed out though, I haven't seen any practices and therefore trust TN decision. Let's hope some big minutes in Rochester will lead to some big points and he will be back up at some point in the season. I'm shocked Zad is still up here. I'm guessing if McCabe goes down then he has a real good look at a spot.

Woody - You always have to set up to record an hour after the game for times like this man.

Looks like we're still waiting for one more in blue. Hopefully someone can join well before the draft tomorrow. If you're worried it's your first year and you will likely get blown away. Don't. I'm sure I'll be in the running for the basement this year. Should still be fun. -
So it's 3 days to the start of the season. Do we know yet?
-
I think I head heard Bennett is being sent down to juniors if we care what other teams are doing with their high draft picks (which we shouldn't).
-
So the pats arnt the old washed up team the media and everyone has been making them out to be.
-
No that price is for a 355ml bottle so less than half the size of yours. Very surprised how it is more expensive or atleast comparable there.
-
Thanks for the advice guys. Edit - Just saw it's $3.95 per bottle or $89.95 per 24. Guess I'll have to just try a bottle first. Let me know how much it is down your way.
-
I know. It's the first (and hopefully last) year I will actually be cheering for Toronto wins. It is a strange season but atleast we have rooting interests in other games (Isles, Blues), our prospect watch and the trade deadline to hold us over. I can't wait for June so I can start rooting for wins again.
-
So as any die hard Sabres fan would, I have taught my son to say Buffalo (ok he still says Buffff) but points to the symbol everytime. For the first time ever, he now knows to say booo anytime he sees a leaf symbol. Just happened before I left for work this morning as he said buh and pointed to a leaf bear my dad is trying to brainwash him with. F'n Fantastic! Should be a fun Leafs/Sabres game I take him to in Nov.

Nice, Complaint Thursday is not yet locked. Can the Mod who locks the Complaint Thursday Thread be the same one who unlocks the Friday Thread at the same time?

Who is the goalie when this team makes a run?
Derrico replied to CallawaySabres's topic in The Aud Club
Ullmark. -
I feel this way about generic ketchup. Particularly at breakfast spots. I even see several which put that generic crap in Heinz bottles as if we're not suppose to taste the difference.

Game discussion thread Pre Season GDT: Washington at Buffalo, 7 PM

Stay strong, I feel many troops have deserted post. There are very few left to defend the fort. -
Sorry ink. During my wife's pregnancy I felt like it was someone I didn't even know either. The hormons and post partum depression is a real and serious thing. After about 8 months when our little guy started sleeping through the nights and her hormons we're back under control things got so much better. I'm not in your shoes but if you can stick it out atleast another six months and reevaluate then I would strongly recommend.
