I don’t say that. Granato is safe for now. It’s way too early change. You really want Matty Ellis as interim? Thats not what we want. This team is just starting to catch on. They are playing good tonight.

Ok. 3-2 lead. Let’s see them dig deep and play a strong road period. Win the 3rd and win the game. Sabres have played well.

Too many men. Could it be the line shuffling???? 11 forwards????

Cozey. Nice. now get another.

Skinner sells another one.

He is not playing better than the other two, at times he shines and he might even win tonight. But he should play a ton in Rochester and get called back later. There are home stands and it’s a short ride.

That’s more like it!

Greenway did good. Wilson was targeting Power. Dahlin got targeted mercilessly a few years ago and no one ever helped him that I can recall anyway. Finally Dahlin got tougher and put a stop to it. Power will be called upon to address his own mess soon enough.

Cheap-o goal

Spooner. You can use the actor from the Quintin Tarantino movie for the sniper. Inglorious Basterds. This is actually a German sniper.

Benson making his case to stick.

This guy played an American sniper. He was also a great Roger Maris.

JJP. He is really coming on.

Good evening Teammates, Punch checking in. Big game tonight. Let’s get a streak going. Go Sabres!!! Muscle Weight

To highly tout, or not to highly tout, that is the question. Whether it is nobler in Kevyn’s heart and mind to trade for help and send Krebs down, or to suffer the slings and arrows from disgruntled fans at Sabres space.

Translation Sabres 4-2. Cozens get 2 tonight. Dahlin with 3 points.

He has double the points.

Sure RJ2 has forced his hand but the bottom 6 is bad and he would rather not dress all of the culprits which are: KO, Jost, VO and Krebs. VO plays because he can sometimes score in bunches. KO is the captain. Jost has been better than Krebs, so there you have it.

I am pretty sure there is upside to Krebs and that other teams would see that. I prefer he play in Rochester for awhile but we don't have enough centers to do that as @GASabresIUFAN has already pointed out. If we dump VO, Girgs, Krebs, and bench KO in January, and replace them all with call ups, then the playoff goal chase is probably over. Does dump mean trade? Cutting them lose is not gonna happen. Trade market for VO is probably at the deadline. KO is the Captain - best we can do is to platoon him. Girgensons is not even one of the problems - he is a decent 4th line grinder with some jam and some PK skill.

Almost ready for a Sabres and Bills Sports Holiday Weekend! Sabres on Weds, Thanksgiving on Thursday, Sabres on Friday, Sabres on Saturday. Bills on Sunday. Clear out the guest room for company - check Bring up the Christmas deco boxes -check Decorate the fireplace mantle - check Set up the fake tree - check Put up the lights, (ugh), - check Go on out and get a "nice pretty" holiday centerpiece for the dinning room table, (grumble), - check Bring down the Christmas deco boxes - check Go outside and rake, blow, and suck up leaves - ok, that's this afternoons assignment. Big game tonight. Can't wait to pour a nice single malt (ok probably two) and watch it in my man cave. Go Sabres!

A lot of people want to see the bottom 6 improved, myself included. Looking for more or better veteran on-ice support. Not gonna get that from Rochester. Quinn and Tage returning will help us build a better 3rd line. Until then we will struggle. The 4C position is in need of improvement. Another big tough forward like Greenway would help as well. VO, Krebs, KO are the weakest players right now.

Injuries have prevented him from seeing the pressbox. We will see what happens.

Benson ranks top 9 including Quinn in the list.

I would want Greenway before Benson. When Greenway is going he will surpass some of the others on the list. But I would take Benson next, over the remainder of the group. Greenway Greenway.

Oh, you want me to feed the beast.
