I like the way Zucker keeps working. I hope he rubs off on someone, Cozens, Peterka, anyone.

I had that hockey card too. His brother was the great Rocket Richard, a great goal scorer for Montreal. Both are in the HoF.

This is the Pocket Rocket. His name is on the cup as a player more than anyone, ever.

Krebs saw the open spot and clanged it off the iron. Good period.

Kulich has been knocking on the door. Good for him. The roster is so poor that he is pushing people off of it. He won’t even be 21 until April.

That’s hilarious. Power gets attacked for “snowing” the goalie. Kulich scores. This is fun.

It’s a Sabres game.

I can see giving McLeod some extra shifts with the 4th line fast wings, guy put him with Kulich and Benson, they are better finishers, and could benefit from his experience.

McLeod, along with his Stanley Cup playoff experience, is buried on the 4th line.

@SwampD, Full brick or veneer?

Benson shoot the dam puck. You had 20 crashing in for a rebound.

Is this a lead? MALENSTYN

Good evening Teammates, Lots of Christmas stuff going on but taking time to watch my favorite hockey team. Time to win one, wearing the RJ tee shirt, and breaking out the Woodford Reserve. MUSCLE WEIGHT

What’s in there?

I wore my RJ tee-shirt a few times this year. It was given to me by my daughter, who attended his goodbye game. Sad, but they have never won a game with me wearing it. Maybe I try again tonight?

I just don't get it. Why not a 3rd line of Kulich - McLeod - Benson? That pushes Krebs to 4C. McLeod is an RFA after this season. What do you think happens to him? Also, looks like Bryson moves past Joker, again.

@Stoner will be airing his grievances.

Lets see, what will happen on the Island tonight? The Aisles will break out their heavy game and we will get stifled in the neutral zone. We wont get enough high danger shots to really test their goalie and we wont be willing to go to the dirty areas. UPL will keep it close for awhile, but it end up 4-2, with the 4th goal being yet another ENG. Oh yeah, and Martin and their 4th line will slap us around as usual.

And the inbound players negate the trades because of the poor organization that Terry Pegula leads and runs.

No to Petterson. Not with that contract. This team has enough problems with motivation and bad contracts.

I’m not following your last two comments on tanking. The OP suggests tanking. I already addressed my thoughts on that. I’m against it. Please stop being coy and ask a direct question. Or ask none at all.

If we haven’t extended the UFA, or even had the conversation, then Adams should get whatever he can. I would like to keep Greenway since he is 27 and in his prime. A rarity for this totally unbalanced roster. He is a very good bottom 6 guy with a defensive slant to his game. He has some trouble staying healthy. I suspect he wants out. Zucker is 32 and I expect he wants a shot with a playoff team and Adams will try to help him get one. So far I think he is a class act as a player. He shows up.

It didn’t work then, it won’t work now for the same reasons. If we get a top player in this coming draft that’s great. But the Sabres FO needs to try to win right now.

Nothing for me but I have a few relatives that need health issues resolved. That, and a Super Bowl for Buffalo.
