I completely respect your indecision of spending money next year. Absolutely. I’m a Sabres STH. So I get it. THAT dilemma in no way, will or should affect how the Sabres treat and develop UPL next season. What’s best for him, and his development will be the decision. Regardless of if you or 5,000 fans decide to not spend a dime and one min in that arena to watch the Amerks. He will develop at a pace (a good pace hopefully) with or without fans in seats.

The wife and I will be at this barn burner today. 4 - 2 Jets Vesey, Skinner, or Joker with a goal.

Ok I get your frustration. Ready or not, I bet he’s at least the backup in Roch. next season. Hopefully he works on his game and takes the next step over the next 6 months.

All goalies/players have bad games. Tonight wasn’t UPL’s night. Let’s see how he responds. I’m way more interested in how he fights thru it and looks next game(s).

But but but ... he “looks” like he doesn’t try hard.

Who is Y’all? I posted how we owe him money for three years. Full stop.

Check it out. Scroll down to Buyout. and it’s three years. Not two.

He’s still on the payroll for two more years.

https://www.capfriendly.com check out this website… I think you’ll like it.

He’ll catch on to another team. I think he has two maybe three years left before he’s useless as an NHLer. Some can be mean and hard on him all they want. He’ll get an opportunity on an NHL team. I have no doubt. But, frankly, I’m glad it won’t be with the Sabres... whew!

So in reality, the overall point of this thread. The point that the Sabres have drafted miserably in the 1st round in recent years, (when compared with all the other teams in the league) is rather middle of the pack. And therefore not really a failure at all. And “set us back” is an opinion in a vacuum without looking at the league and how many “hits” other teams have in the first round in recent years. And “hits” is subjective and open to interpretation.

Both posts even tempered, well thought out, factual and reasonable. No clouded bias or ax grinding. ??

I think JB says this under his breath every morning before his feet hit the floor.

God, I hope Lloyd’s never comes to the arena… It’s just not that good. In my opinion Mighty taco?… Now we’re talking!

Friendly and respectful hockey talk ?? ?

I figured as much. But then I looked at 5 or 6 teams and the titles are all over the place lol. Not as consistent as you may think.

I wonder how many of the 31 teams lack a person with the official title of “president of hockey operations” and is it the same or different (in the eyes of the team) as the title of “president”. And do all teams have an assistant GM? It seems some teams use different titles than others.

Any mistake made in the last 5 mins of this game wasn’t gonna magically make the Sabres win tonight. It was an uphill battle after the 1st period. One in which this team rarely wins.

Show her this ...

Exclamation point!!!

The power of Chris Phillips night!

I think that could be a good thread to start. Top 10 hated Sabres. Break it out of the GDT
