Derrico

All of this. He's certainly not slow but his straight line speed is not as fast as I thought it would be. But he more than makes up for it with his edge work and unbelievable hockey iq. The decision making is top notch. He makes difficult passes look routine and has dramatically improved the ability to break out of the zone. We are truly lucky to have a franchise centre and franchise dman. We won't be winning the cup this year but we should have some fun watching hockey over the next few years.

Honestly asking, are Boston or Montreal’s metrics much better than ours?

Seriously Brawndo, you are the man. Good info you pass along daily. so anyone else feel slighted that nobody is giving Buffalo a chance at the top 3? Sounds like this interview the hosts say we ‘have a chance to make the playoffs as a wildcard.’ I was listening to wgr550 around 415 today and they were interviewing someone from ESPN who basically said the top three will be Tampa, Toronto and Boston. But hey, the math says the sabres have a chance at WC. Screw that, we have a real shot at top 3. Let’s Go Buffalo!!!!!

He won't make it because they're not going to give the Sabres 3 players but Hutton absolutely is deserving to be in the all star game.

Big congrats to Pi, juju, North Buf and Wicca...I mean True for making the playoffs. Best of luck guys!

We can get more for him than we got for Kane right?

I don’t care how many members are online, NS is done with starting GDT for awhile ?

I was picking up my kid from after school and literally sat in my car an extra ten minutes to hear the end of the interview. Well, I turned it off when they started talking leafs. It was a great listen.

That was my first thought too. What a big piece he has become on the blueline. Even though all top 7 or so guys have been playing well this is not a guy I want out long term.

How long have we waited now for that franchise dman? Ironic the year were not tanking we pick first. Risto can soon play number 2 min and be better for it.

He was fantastic last night. He has to be up with the team moving forward. I don’t want to lose someone via waiver but if last night is any indication, he can help us win right now.

Your on fire tonight.

They just went toe to toe with one of the biggest cup favorites in the league....on a back to back with the road team sitting there waiting....with some injuries on the back end including playing with 5 D (two of which have less than 30 games nhl experience). I was worried we were going to get blown out but easily could have won and got a point. Huge heart they showed imo.

Thanks guys, guess I should have read on. Bad enough without McCabe. We need Risto.

Did I miss something? Where in the he'll is Risto?

God *****! Just found this out....

I was really thinking about it but if this results in another terrible season for you then I donno....hahhahah

Is Pilut still up? We starting Hunwick over Pilut?

Ya I saw ur at the top. Going to be a tight finish. Good luck to all.

Ok, I don’t wanna get sucked into this. But weren’t you the one that stated during the Kane trade rumours that basically all, or most of the analysts comments are garbage? It’s basically them trying to stir up webpage hits and get people talking. You commented how they basically don’t say anything. I started reading insider info closer and you were damn right. Now this is what your using as evidence that the blues just wanted to dump these guys? I don’t understand why you take the ROR trade almost personally. I wanted ROR when we got him as much as anybody. But we did jack ***** with him. He’s gone and the sabres lead the nhl in points and the blues are a damn tire fire.

So.....10 in a row eh? Good friggen lord.......

Yep. Me too. Man those names take me back.....great seeing guys like rick Shaw and others come back with this win streak. I think that's the best aspect of the streak.

Very true. I would almost throw Girgs in that statement as well. The improvement from those two from last year is night and day.

User name checks out.

In hindsight the pick should have been Sergachev. But I get that is hindsight and it's not an easy process drafting these kids.
