Boom. Thompson Or not?

See LTS’s post above.

Wear your snow pants and have fun! Will be entertaining.

Trade him.

It is where I come from.

None of them are worth what they’re paid. If they were, they’d be a lot hungrier and play a lot harder. Capitalism and market forces. Supply and demand. Only so many hockey players capable of playing an 82 game schedule at the NHL level. Owners, media money, franchise fees, corporate boxes, and season ticket sales fuel the ecosystem. None of it involves player desire or fan entertainment.

Thompson is not elite. Only paid that way.

Have to believe they have top draft prospects tested and assessed for those attributes. Comes down to Desire. Think multi year big money contracts with guarantees given to these kids kill desire in all but the exceptional professional athletes. The NHL and player agents are killing the golden goose.

Add Samuelson and his contract, and I’m in.

What has Appert done behind the Sabres bench? Sure hasn’t made a difference that I can see.

Dahlin skates unencumbered through the slot at the top of the key with a clean look and passes instead of shooting. Unbelievable.

Not with this roster. And never will without changes to the core.

Ray says the Sabres have to be patient. Play their game. We have no game. The patient scheme only works if you have reliable goal scorers. We don’t. We need to start playing an urgent game.

Create some urgency, Ruff.

Sheesh. My feed is late.

You are right, my bet.

Damn.

Crap call.

Reimer had a strong period. Like him as back up.

Decent period.

Get physical. Sheesh.

We are just awful clearing the puck out of our zone.

I’ll be damned. The worm is turning.

Linesmen taking forever to find a way to give it to the Isles.

Damn.
