  1. I can’t remember the Questions…
  2. He better… Sabres cannot afford to be very patient if both UPL and Comrie struggle through year end. His Goalie Scouts are plugged in, no doubt.
  3. Up to Adams, Granato & Staff, Okposo & Assts, and Veterans… to lead themselves, the new kids, the fans, and the City of Buffalo into the playoffs… We have the roster and pipeline to do it… and go deep. No excuses or explanations otherwise will cut it this season. This is the given reality. Go Sabres!
  4. Just watched Appert’s post game interview after Saturday’s 4-2 win… What an impressive guy… Smart… Articulate… Knows the game… Knows his players… Loves what he does and who he does it for… His players, his coaches, and the Sabres organization… We have a great player and coaching pipeline…
  5. Hell… Did you see 6’0” Lingren get chippy and go face to face with 6’7” Parker-Jones in front of the net??… Laughed at the big lug. Cant train guts… Either got’em or you don’t.
  6. Agree… and you presented it perfectly… (Had to look up Broken Arrow)… “A code phrase that a ground unit is facing imminent destruction from enemy attack and all available air forces within range are to provide air support immediately.” What a great time to be a Sabres fan!
  7. Gotta love our pipeline… Full of speed, skill, and savvy.
  8. Hey, LGR4GM… As I understand it, Olofsson wants to be here, and he is well liked in the locker room… Your numbers sound right… Our defense and goaltending should be better, so his two-way play and +/- will benefit. Lot of studs looking for a roster spot… He’ll need to compete hard and have a good camp. And Adams can always surprise us with a trade package… But I expect Olofsson to be here and to have a good year, moving between 3-4 lines, and the PP.
  9. Bring in a couple gritty mature veterans with Stanley Cup Championship success.
  10. Awesome… Will help recruit and retain the type of player Adams prefers… Focused on family, community, and team. No place for Showboats and AllAboutMe types.
  11. Nope… Levi fits with our young Turks roster of developing future stars… and Stanley Cup Champs.
  12. Nope… No interest.
  13. Wonder how many Sabres who stay in Buffalo headed down the Thruway to see the game?
  14. Bravo, Amerks!!… Clean sweep… Now won six straight!!… Onward and Upward…
  15. Hmm… Doesn’t like to give up a tough scoring chance of his own….to a teammate with a wide open net… Appert and Peca will fix that.
  16. Agree… Looked like a forceful flying shoulder to shoulder to me… Think the elbow and forearm to the face got him… Kid is an aggressive checker… We need a controlled aggressive checker… Can’t teach aggressive… Can teach control… Let’s go Appert… Let’s go Peca… School the boy.
  17. He’s 19… Another inch and 20-30 lbs of muscle with his shot… Kid could be a beast… Our Nutritionists have a new assignment.
  18. You and me both…
  19. Boston crashes in OT… My bracket goes down in 🔥
  20. Hahaha… Oops… Thanks, LabattBlue Haven’t followed the series…Checked Yahoo for the scores this morning and didn’t look at the date… ATD failure (Attention To Detail)… So, still tied with Pasta Joe for first place! Go Devils!
  21. Pasta Joe… Was tied with him at #1 but Lindy and the Devils were eliminated yesterday…
  22. Hey, Pimlach… Remember putting the ad inserts in the paper at your neighborhood distributor’s garage… before putting 30+ papers in each shoulder bag… crisscrossing your chest… and the bags balanced… banging on your hips… as you walked to your route… and started down the street and up each driveway… Putting the paper behind the storm door?… Then collecting every Weds night… “Can you come back on Friday?”… Taught me my first lessons in work discipline, work ethic, and people skills… Invaluable… Thanks for the memory!
  23. Think DG gave a great season-ending statement and thoughtful, straightforward answers to the media… KA much less so, imo
  24. Agree with Weave… Not expecting to hear much in the way of specifics about roster plans… Do expect to hear pride in the culture they have created in the organization… in the development and success of several of their draft choices and trade acquisitions… and in bringing fans back with an uptempo and entertaining product… Want to hear a commitment to winning in their presser, carrying through to training camp, and Day One of the new season… Less talk of player development by DG during the season except in praise of a player… and no more development explanations for losing.
  25. Can’t buy respect like this… Hope Okposo will be part of the Buffalo Sabre organization in some capacity as long as he wants.
