Huckleberry Posted November 21, 2013 Report Posted November 21, 2013 I'd rather see grigorenko in place of leino
kishoph Posted November 21, 2013 Report Posted November 21, 2013 The 3 games under Nolan the Sabres have averaged 28 SOG's against (33,22,31), what a difference from seeing 40-50 against under Rolson. Sabres win this one by 3 goals. GO SABRES.

Trettioåtta Posted November 21, 2013 Report Posted November 21, 2013 Grigo's development has been so ###### up. At least Ruff seemed to have an idea of when/why he sat Grigo. I'm also a bit confused by Nolan's blank slate idea. Grigo has yet to play a game for him...
Gramps Posted November 21, 2013 Report Posted November 21, 2013 Lots of agitators in that Philly lineup - surprised that Flynn is playing in place of Scott.

26CornerBlitz Posted November 21, 2013 Author Report Posted November 21, 2013 After listening to Nolan's Presser yesterday, I'm still scratching my head for a sensible rationale on why they're moving Girgensons to the Wing. What he was saying did not compute for me.
That Aud Smell Posted November 21, 2013 Report Posted November 21, 2013 After listening to Nolan's Presser yesterday, I'm still scratching my head for a sensible rationale on why they're moving Girgensons to the Wing. What he was saying did not compute for me. he didn't really offer one, did he? i heard him say that he likes him at center, likes him at wing, but foresees him being an absolute beast on the wing in ~3 years or so (and therefore a better fit there?).
Sabres Fan in NS Posted November 21, 2013 Report Posted November 21, 2013 For the record: I hate the Flyers. Noted in the record for the ... well I have noted that in the record so many times that I have lost count ... ;) For the record. So do I and the Bruins, too.
SwampD Posted November 21, 2013 Report Posted November 21, 2013 For the record: I hate the Flyers. This made me laugh.
LTS Posted November 21, 2013 Report Posted November 21, 2013 After listening to Nolan's Presser yesterday, I'm still scratching my head for a sensible rationale on why they're moving Girgensons to the Wing. What he was saying did not compute for me. I get the feeling there is a ton going on in the front offices at this point in time and it's making it difficult to provide clear direction. If this is still happening a month or two from now I will be more concerned but we're early on in the new process and there are a lot of moving parts. There could be something with Grigorenko as to why they have not played him. I mean something more than what we know. My other thought is that they really want to know what veterans on this team are going to be the kind they want to build around and which ones they want to move. Playing Grigorenko isn't going to help the cause of moving any of them for any value. If Leino is scratched constantly then his trade value goes down even further. After all, if he can't be in the lineup on a crappy team how good can he be? At least with him on the ice there's a chance people chalk it up to the rest of the team or the culture, etc. I'm just going to be patient and enjoy the ride for now. And I hope they beat the Flyers.

Sabres Fan in NS Posted November 21, 2013 Report Posted November 21, 2013 *Turkeys away* That is awesome. I hope those are freezer trucks ... no one wants turkeyarrhea for Thanksgiving. Edit: I predict a big road win for the good guys tonight.
IKnowPhysics Posted November 21, 2013 Report Posted November 21, 2013 I predict a big road win for the good guys tonight. Turkey karma?
sabills Posted November 21, 2013 Report Posted November 21, 2013 @BuffaloSabres $50,000 in turkeys. Amazing! Thank you #Buffalo! #Sabres #TurkeyDrive I went down there, it took me an hour to drop off my turkeys. Worth the wait, and very cool that there were so many people. Danny Gare was there greeting people in a jersey, which was pretty awesome, too.

But, but, how can he play? He's having conditioning issues!

dEnnis the Menace Posted November 21, 2013 Report Posted November 21, 2013 One of the only teams that if we lose against them, I will be genuinely angry. I hope Grigo plays tonight.
Huckleberry Posted November 21, 2013 Report Posted November 21, 2013 Leino will be bought out, only value he might have is making us stay above the cap floor next season.

Butterball = Gold game Topps = Bronze Market in the Square = Value game
G-Daddy Posted November 21, 2013 Report Posted November 21, 2013 Better keep those turkeys frozen so no one gets sick on Thanksgiving! Go Sabres!
