Pimlach

This is his second full season, do not count the year he left the ncaa to play 9 games. We get it, you don’t like him. He is frustrating at times. But he is 21 and playing a position that takes time and patience. You obviously cannot tell the difference from top 4 and 5/6/7. So you don’t see his puck handling and passing skills? Seriously, the entire NHL Scouting community had him at the top tier of the draft and you see him as a 3rd pair. If he was a 3rd pair talent at 21 he would still be in Rochester. Trade him now, at the first year of his new contract, and you will get the absolute minimum in return, trading him now is devaluating him. Other GMs will line up and fleece the Sabres, it would be similar to the ROR trade.

Yup. Me too.

This is familiar information?

Pegula came in bragging and talking smack about winning Cups, spending money and drilling wells. The other owners probably don’t care for him. He really thinks he knows hockey because he coached his kid in the Olean Bantam House League.

probably so, but they gave Power an 8 year deal when he was 20, and they knew Dahlin was up too. What if he does not sign it, they suck again next season, and he wants out so he gets moved at the deadline?

Correct. Next year is his last year. Adam’s will likely try to extend him before the season, no? Why else would he trade Mitts for him?

Where is your “Is this the lowest point” thread? Tonight seems like another entry in that journal for consideration.

Toronto started the scrum after their guy went down. Dahlin boarded their guy to cause it all.

Every single reason Mathew’s scored is on Byram. He was completely out worked, he earned his Pegula Sabres wings tonight.

Fighting with gloves on. Pussies

The change won’t be better because they (Terry and Adams) are not prepared to make one.

Yup. But even more foolish to over pay him. They already overpaid Power, he should have been bridged.

Because #4 was wandering around with no stick. He gave that goal away.

The Legend of Bo Byram is a really short chapter.

54

Sabres have thrown a lot at this goalie. He is blessed tonight. Even when he is beat we are just not getting the stick on the puck.

Skinner to the box

Byram and Dahlin on the points was working for awhile. Why not go back to it.

Peterka should have 3 tonight. Posts, wide shots on open nets, just missed another. Tough night for the kid.

Shot wide too many times. No traffic in front. They are standing around.

Toronto pressure helped Peterka get open. The PP does not move. They are terrible.

We had trouble winning 2 in a row all season so whatever our B2B record is, can’t be good.

They look like they played last night. It probably won’t get better in the 3rd.
