Idemo Buffalo

Will it be Donald Trump or Kamala Harris welcoming the Buffalo Sabres to the White House to celebrate a Stanley Cup win? Huge game tonight. The road to the White House begins today for the Buffalo Sabres.

It was 80 degrees on November 3, 1961 in Buffalo and 12 degrees in Buffalo on November 5, 1951. Yes, Buffalo November weather is awesome.

Alex Tuch would have been the PR move, not Dahlin. He is the local guy. The Sabres have the right captain. Dahlin is a Sabre. Always has been. He is very good in the community as well. He also is locked up for 7 more years. It was a no-brainer.

There was an open competition for Captain. Dahlin has been being vetted/groomed for years. He is the face of the Sabres and by all accounts the Sabres best player. Unless traded, which is not likely, he will be in Buffalo through 2032. He leads by example. The Sabres don't need a "loud" captain. They have a coach that does that. If you are questioning the leadership of a person after 12 games, you probably don't understand leadership.

Why not just trade Dahlin away instead? This way we will all know who is going to win the Stanley Cup well before it happens. Leadership isn't the problem with the Sabres. They have a Captain and 4 assistants, plus Lindy. Plenty of leaders. Sabres problem is consistency. Lack of consistency often comes with a new coach and new system. SEVENTY games left.

Not trying to hawk anything. We are considering starting a Croatian hockey/football fan group for the the Bills and Sabres, called Idemo Buffalo. Similar to the Czech/Slovkia and Italian Buffalo fan clubs. Idemo means "Let's Go" in Croatian. Just like Jedeme means Let's Go in Czech and Forza means Let's Go in Italian. Fans Clubs usually don't spend all day bashing teams. The Sabres did a great job with Victor Maudr's Czech/Slovakia fan group if you haven't seen the Sabres Embedded on their fan club. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iNoCb9qFEJE

Haven't told anyone what they think and know. Have been telling people they are too negative. Never seen a fan base so negative 12 games into a season. It is almost like this board exists to bash the Sabres. I get it, but they won 3 in a row and the same people just continued to bash them. Not sure these people are fans or just like to complain. The Bills could win two Super Bowls and you would complain but the Chiefs won three Super Bowls. They could win 5 Super Bowls and you would complain that the Pats won six Super Bowls. Negative Nancies.

I struck a nerve. Clearly the overlap of Tyler Bass bashers and Sabres bashers is quite large. Tyler Bash silenced you. The Sabres will silence you as well.

They have a new coach and have played 12 games. There are SEVENTY games left. Give it a rest. Go be negative in some other thread. There are plenty of them.

In honor of Tyler Bass today......

Every negative poster on this thread wanted Tyler Bass cut prior to that kick. If you say you didn't...

It feels the same as being only 3 points out of a playoff spot.

They play 4 of their next 5 at home. You might think differently in 2 weeks.

End of the year (December) not next year (season). We already put together a 3 game win streak. No reason why they can't put together a few more or even a few 5 or 6 game win streaks.
