Well Byram's contract is up after the season so he could get moved if he is asking for big $$ or if we are not in it at the deadline, but it sounded like you are thinking of resigning Byram and eventually trading Dahlin? I have always been skeptical of the Byram trade and how we fit him into the payroll given the big dollars already allocated to defense. Back to the subject of Dahlin, it just seems weird to be talking about trading the guy they gave a big contract to, and then handed a C.

I can't believe this is even a discussion. You can see that Dahlin is skating with his back and shoulders way too upright. He has no bend, and it seems to translate to less power and explosiveness. I think he is playing hurt. Happens all the time.

The Sunday Night Football coverage just gushed over the Jets for the entire first half, especially Collingsworth. It was nauseating. The Jets get a lot of publicity for being such a poorly run organization. Rogers is finished, and they will hate the Devante Adams contract soon enough.

McD said he took the opening kick to get the wind when they wanted it, which is 1st and 4th Q's. The plan was to score first with the wind, because they thought the weather could get more severe, which it never did. I have no problem with that logic, even if the offense did not execute as planned.

Who is the best defenseman on the Sabres if not Dahlin?

He was injured in camp and in preseason games. He looks injured to me. He is playing at half speed.

They sure started poorly in all phases of the game but they got it going. Allen seemed to get a boost from Cooper's presence, as did #O. I am hopeful that they can open up the offense more and let Allen make plays. On defense we need to get #43 Bernard back. He left the game. Tough road game in Seattle is the next river to cross.

Third year in franchise history and they made the playoffs in the NHL's heavyweight division. That was quite an accomplishment.

On-ice Expected Goals. Off-ice Expected Goals? That's it! We need guys that can score goals when they are off-ice.

Looks like the Double Dub came true. W W

The weather is great. The Sabres finished their road trip with a win last night. The Bills are home for a 1:00pm game. Lets get an all to rare weekend Double Dub!

Hmmm

Many good comments here on things that can be done. It comes down to more and better movement. Not just staying stationary and moving the puck on the perimeter, but player movement as well. They tend to stand around too much.

You are childish and delusional. I am stating we need to be better at center. If you think we don’t, that’s great for you. I pointed out we drafted 6 centers in four years (which includes Savoie), something you can’t seem to follow, to illustrate the teams need at center. I want to give McLoed more minutes because Cozens play isn’t as good as his right now. Your inability to follow and comprehend a discussion is the problem. Your calling me or the fan base soft is just the childish response of someone who cannot contribute a tangible comment about hockey.

Fourth night of a 3 game trip. They got the win. The good part is they held the lead and UPL looked good.

Ignore coming

UPL with 35 saves and 0.946 Sv%.

Ha ha. I fixed it.

Ok. They protected the lead tonight. Good win. UPL needs to play a bunch of games now. He has to play to get his game going. He deserves a long look. He could carry this team if he gets to last years level.

Nice Tuch and McLoed

Another nothing power play.

Chicago should be a man short after they call this one.

Your talking points are robotish.

Close play but we were outworked. Muel is disappointing at times, Krebs a marginal player.
