Isn't that the same league that had the guy charged with murder for the skate blade? Weird that Lucic won't just retire. Dude must have lost his money or something. It's a strange desperation.

Can I vote for Marty Biron for #1?

No. More like a puck hound with a bit of an edge. Unafraid. Maybe more Benson maybe. I'm really not sure why the Sabres would call him out to Vancouver if Zucker and Norris are out. Rosen made sense but Kuntar is a different guy.

How long you been watching? How do you maintain this unfounded optimism? Every year they actually show the opposite.

When he was a Boston prospect a lot of fans optimistically had him pegged as the next Marchand. I was kind of surprised the Bruins gave up on him since they really like the hard working grit guys and he's definitely in that mold. I'm not sure he has NHL skill but you never know. He certainly has the right attitude.

We need that for 60 though not just OT. It's lacking more often than it's there.

I actually play at the seniors center once in a while. I'm 66 and I'm the youngest guy there, but some of them know how to play. It's actually quite fun. The 90 year olds are actually quite inspirational.

Yes, I like Doan. I like how he plays. He is the kind of player you should have been building around all along. I feel for him because in time he will lose his love for hockey. The Sabres organization does not understand how you build a culture. It is simple as that. Two things to consider. Heard Hamilton today pointing out in their entire history they have only hired an experienced GM (experienced as a GM) twice. Scotty Bowman and Punch Imlach. Two eras in which we had a good hockey team. The eras that made me into a Sabres fan. Very telling. The second you won't like because I heard it said at the Bruins post game presser. Quote from Sturm that says everything "that's what good teams do. They don't complain. They just go out and work." Have you not noticed how much complaining Ruff does? How Sabres players constantly look to refs for calls. Everyone complaining and looking for someone else to fix the problem. Good teams just get out there and WORK. Pegula does not understand any of this.

Well you shouldn't have dealt me 2 5's, a 4 and a 6..........and then I cut for another 6 so I'm feeling ok 😉

Because I do not think Pegula will sell the team and thus I do not think the core philosophy will change and I do not think the organization will change at all. It's possible they go a little up or down and some people get shuffled around but I have no hope that things will ever improve. Don't get me wrong, I WANT them to improve, but I'm also a realist.

Most of us think this will happen but it's never been proven for sure. It's still possible Pegula could clean house and have a new GM start over.

Really old people seem to like cribbage a lot. If it's a video game I'd suggest something like video golf. Controllers can get hard to use for seniors for any games where there's constant action or movement. Stuff like golf let's you take your time and tee up shots etc. Racing games are next to impossible for any older people with arthritis or such.

Well they almost blew it when Edmonton started going to the net in the 3rd but thankfully they can play 3 on 3. Doan deserves to be on a better hockey team. Quinn deserves to stay on this dumpster fire for his whole career. He is the embodiment of everything wrong with the Sabres. Savoie ain't much. Edmonton isn't as good as last year. If they make the playoffs I doubt they go on another long cup run. I expect them to lose to Seattle. idk about Vancouver, they aren't very good either. Haven't watched them so not sure how they play.

I actually expect them to win this game. Edmonton falls into wide open offense easily and that's what Sabres like and do best in. Should be some goals scored tonight. If they come out flat and suck it will mean they have quit on the coach/season/team/etc.

Oh and Greenway's a heck of a hockey player isn't he? Genius putting him on the top line.
