I don’t have the game on TV where I’m staying. Sounds bad so far

Did you ever consider that it’s the songs, the lyrics and their meaning, the arrangement and the musicianship? Singing voice is only one part of the performance. And There are plenty of female singers that have only average voices but write good songs. I know plenty of people that either like and don’t like - Janis Joplin, Joni Mitchel, Cher, Stevie Nicks, Cindy Lauper, Taylor Swift, etc. Rating musicians and songwriters is to me a waste of time.

I was sleeping. I Saw the shots totals but if kept them away from UPL that is good. Especially since we won the 3rd period 1-0. I’ll take it. On to Vancouver …

I missed the 3rd, felt safe that we would win by 5-4. 6-2 sounds like we shut them down. Up early for more home improvement labor.

No. I am cautious. I’ve seen this before with our goaltending. We don’t know the plan but we know Adams. The blocker thing.

He is the plan for 3C next year. I hope Adams sees we need more. Krebs is still a kid.

Im hanging in there. Good to have a lead on the road after 1. Not sure how much longer I can last. Too much work today.

You digging into the data now PA?

I feel a win. I think they can stop the losing to these sea monsters. 4-2 Buffalo. I’ll probably only catch one period. Got to get up early. Someone needs more help with plumbing in the morning. Muscle Weight.

I think we beat the Kracken tonight. Hope UPL is rested, gonna need his A game.

But he was not a hockey guy. He was a businessman. The problem is that he didn’t hire the best hockey guys, and turn hockey operations over to them.

John, Dude is kind of like saying “Hey man”. To some its used as a term of endearment.

He was on Colorado, wasn't he on their 2nd pair?

I want better. In addition to 4D ... Bring in a 3C and make Krebs battle for the 3C or 4C slot. Nothing I see tells me he is a 3C. Maybe the fancy stats show something but goals and assists do not. Bring in another power forward. Trade Skinner (dreaming) Redo the 4th line and bring in a tough guy that can also play.

No doubt the defense is better than last year and the year prior. I expected a big improvement considering how bad it once was. One nice result of adding Byram is that he pushes 3 other guys down. Next step is a big body, a tough stay at home top 4 guy. A guy that will clear the front of the net and make people pay for touching our goalie. Get that guy and watch Power flourish. Because Power is not a physical player, and Byram is not that guy, and Dahlin should not have to be that guy, we need the #4 defenseman to be that guy. Did you see Detroit getting chippy with UPL? When this team gets better this will happen even more if they don’t address it. Get that kind of guy at D4, and now look at 5,6,7,8 - pick from Samuelsson, Clifton, Johnson, Joker, and Bryson. Good teams have depth. I know it’s not easy to find these players, especially for a perennial bottom feeder, but that is what Adams is paid to do. So yes, the defense is better. But it’s not there yet, there are too many players that have the same skill set. We are missing a key ingredient. The Sabres are 3 or 4 players away from being a very good team. I don’t think we have to wait for all these prospects to develop to get there. Adam’s 5th off season is coming. For most teams his time would be up. Considering where Buffalo was when he got there he gets another year.

It would have been easier to make the playoffs by adding a goalie in the summer, and putting Levi in Rochester to get the reps he needs.

I’m glad I missed this one. The tone on this board is so different than the last few games. I guess when you get down to your last few losses that happens. West coast, here we come.

I think Tage can be a dominant force but he has to play stronger and smarter. He wants to be fed, he still plays like a winger.

I am in Buffalo right now and I don’t see many happy fans. Even on this board, there are only about 3 or 5 members that just won’t criticize Adams, DG, the rebuild pace, or Pegula … but that’s it.

I get it. Shop class is on break. Feed me before I hang that door.

The main reason for the turn around is the play of UPL. A secondary reason is they got healthier.
