Still young in goalie years

not enough good PK guys. Tuch is better than Tage in that role

Rob Ray said the tripping call on UPL was a garbage call. I agree.

71 with a laser Krebs battles with The Rat. I love it.

Ok, good first period. Keep it going. the wife has meatloaf ready. 😋

Clifton is a tool. Girgs got under his skin.

Bad defense by 10 and 25. Both failed to beat DeBrusk. Two guys failed.

I have been visiting New England consistently since 2010. Heard him a lot. He is poor at his job. I am surprised Boston ever hired him.

Peterka could pulled it to his backhand. Goalie bite on it.

Phil Esposito, with seven 40 goal seasons. I loved beating the Espo Broons.

Well I hope not. But he sucks as a play by play announcer, he is usually like that.

Looking forward to the day that Power is physically blasting the likes of Pastrnak.

Hathaway is just another in a long, long, line of Boston Bruin instigators.

We are not generating much offense , but at least we are being responsible over 200 feet. That said, we need to get going and challenge their backup.

Close checking so far.

Interesting Anthem.

Ok, I’m done talking about the trade deadline and Adams. The Team is playing tonight. Beat the Bruins. Muscle Weight

I have a weird feeling about this game. UPL in. No Dahlin. No Tuch. New player on D. Its Boston, anything can happen.

They added some vets last year, now they plan on beefing up their pipeline I guess.

I think you might be correct. Some of the young guys could look at it as a vote of confidence, the tweeners must feel like they dodged a bullet, some older guys probably want to see more commitment to win. Highly competitive guys of any age could also be wondering when will the Front Office be all in. The cold reality is that next year they might not be as good. You never know what can happen to derail a season and the Sabres history is filled with disappointing seasons immediately following good ones. Last years President's Trophy winners are struggling to make 8th place this season. The trade deadline ends in 26 hours and 6 minutes from when I pushed submit.

He chose not to sign before he got into this business school and decided to get an MBA or whatever degree he is after. Although I am sure he is bright young man, getting a business degree does not constitute extreme intelligence by any stretch. He just told the world that his agent told him not to sign in Buffalo. So that is what he did. We spent a 3rd on him and we got a 3rd back - but he wasted our time and left a hole in the pipeline. I wish the NHL would put a stop to this loop hole with the NCAA kids.

It’s too late for what ifs, at least for me. As for Johnson, I sure hope we don’t base critical roster decisions and potential playoff status on making him comfortable. He can go no matter what we do and we still get compensation pick. I don’t want a player who does not want to compete. He belongs in Rochester next year anyway.

why was Adams actively in discussions if Chyckrun was not a fit? Seems like that is something they know quickly. The angst comes from the price that AZ “settled for” was one 1st rounder, not two or three. And Ottawa got better. Look at what Toronto gave up for McCabe and Lafferty, futures in 25 and 26 that they can replace.

If you’re right then that is a losing mentality. Reach a goal and be content, instead of pushing harder to the next goal. That is not great leadership. There is no guarantee we will be better next year either. We have been lucky with injuries, especially at forward. We still do not have a #1 goalie. Teams will learn how to play Buffalo. Teams in our conference are getting better too. Next year is another story.
