The only thing that seems different this year is we have a Russian player on the Sabres. Pride stuff is banned by their government so when they go back they could be faced with problems.

Big one tonight. Would like to see them win tonight against a “heavy team”. -
Sabres had these nights in the past with no issues.
-
Thompson might be out. Greenway is out too.

I only saw parts. I thought UPL really misplayed their 3rd goal. The score was closer than the game was for most of the night. Good to see Tage score. I hope he is ok. Tuch with a big game. The Kid Line looked great. We match up well with NJD. Good to see Lindy. He is doing well -

Dahlin has been saddled with them the past few games. Maybe he can do more with Joker. -

Well, I will be spending the dinner and part of the evening with friends here in Florida. I will have the game on in the background. The way we are playing, and the team we are playing …. Maybe they will surprise us and show up. Muscle Weight. Let’s run the table starting tonight. -

Sure. Always exceptions. If Adams trusts in Kyle that much then so be it. But most GMs know how quickly an owner can change his mind about things, so they want to live and die by their decisions. I get the impression thing's are calmer and smoother in Sabreland than they have been in a long time. -
If the fallback was UPL/Comrie, and I could not get Demko or Hart, then maybe. Depends on what 2 firsts.
-
True in this case. We need a real nhl starting goalie, we need to give Levi games to develop and a goal for what a starter looks like. Still not going with 2 equivalent 1’s.

One of my fears that I put out there long ago. Players should not be calling the shots, even making player recommendations to the GM. I understand that KO is held in high esteem by Adams but still, Adams was right to move UPL down, and he would have been back up anyway. I’m sure the guys love Bryson, Clague, VO and Mitts. Maybe we can improve if we package a hockey trade? When the GM is faced with a move to improve the club he should do it. Worrying about the room is one thing, but the guy with the C should outwardly welcome and help the new guy. -

Break in those pads Kid. It’s easier to just raise the goals expected by 3, then he might have a good game. -

If the goal is playoffs and long term success then I vote to add a few vets with favorable contracts and move on from some of the vets we have. After that we will just have to see how Savioe and Kulich look.

You missed my point. DesLauriers and his cronies had a comfy 4-1 lead and they definitely wanted to fight someone, anyone. They were going after Krebs and then Okposso and no one responded. I was upset at the zero response by Greenway, or anyone else. Greenway was a menacing figure on Minnesota, now he is as quiet as a church mouse without Reaves and Foligno on his line. Maybe he doesn’t want to hurt his knuckles for this group? If he can’t be a deterrent to teams pushing around our skill players then what will he be? Is Granato gonna transform him into a high skill player? Well let’s see how that turns out. He is already 26, he is slow, and he has a poor shot. He is not Tage Thompson #2. The only thing they have in common is height. If he isn’t using his best physical gift - size - he isn’t going to be a factor. Adam’s told us he brings something we need. Ok? What is it? This team can have all the skill in the world and they will never win a playoff series until they push back and maybe even push first. And stop dismissing my logical and valid comments as antiquated, old era (hooligan, Neanderthal, etc) hockey. I know how the league works and how the game has evolved. I’ve been watching, playing, coaching, administrating, and following the game since I was 6. Almost every cup winner in the past 12 years has been a physical team - or at least have had several players that could answer to that game. I am not asking to bring back the 75 Broad Street Bullies, I am asking for the team to defend themselves, show some pride, and not get laughed at on their home rink. Which happened again the next game versus Boston and again against versus Nashville. All at home Boston game - Frederick literally punched out Dahlin, drew blood, no penalty. Cozens answered the next period and took on Frederick. Five minute major. Preds game - Thompson said in his interview he was challenged for his hit on Glass. Our best player had to fight some bum named Sherwood. He answered. Five minute major. Life should have been very uncomfortable for Sherwood after that fiasco. Think about what would have happened to Sherwood if he started a fight with Bergeron or Pastrnak? He would have been looking over his shoulder all game So Dahlin, Cozens, and Thompson are going to get majors for fighting, and possibly get hurt, and you tell me fighting is not part of the game? Watch the playoffs.

Power, not Powers Myers, not Meyer.

True. I would pay 1 first, we have a lot of prospects and you can only develop so many.
-
Lol. Not everything in the past is Neanderthal is it? They played home on Monday. Did they practice Tuesday, rest Wednesday, and then another home game on Thursday? Or did they get 2 days off? I dont know the answer but two days off is often a bad thing unless you’re nursing an injury. They didn’t have to travel either. Light skating, special teams practice, and defensive positioning all need a lot of attention. Even video sessions of the recent error prone defensive play would help. I don’t know what the union negotiated, if anyo, but they don’t always serve the players best interest with back to backs and travel.
-
No and no. Saros is probably worth one first round equivalent, not two. Nashville would have to accept a protected first pick in 2024 Someone posted information on what starting goalies have fetched in recent trades. Most do not even get one first rounder.

I really worry about rushing him.
-
Very good player too.

These fancy stats can’t fool you. Really. Isn’t this routine? Paperwork in place, submit, done.
