Although I wasn't impressed with anything he did the other night, I would of liked to see Adam given more than 1 game to get back up to the big club, I don't think it's that important to have Scott, Konopka and Leino in the lineup.

 

I see Ville Leino is going to go at center, I heard he's a good center. :rolleyes:

I think what you see with Luke is what you got. He's played in 10 games with the Sabres with year and has one point. For a scorer, that's not going to cut it.

Apparently we are in a full scale rebuild... who knew?

It contains this rather accurate quote.

Seriously, look at that stats box above - the Sabres are a simmering pile of garbage these days.

Nashville is my favorite western conference team for an unknown reason, I just like them.

 

You got the hots for Trotz!

Well at least they might not be "spinning their wheels in an Edmonton-like morass." (i.e., the Sabres aren't the standard in futility. Yet.)

I suppose you're right, I just always thought that he had a lot more to give, maybe he's comfortable being near the top in the AHL.

Gooooooooose!

 

Down here in Nashville there are a couple of douchebags who blow duck calls at certain times throughout the games... I finally realized what they were doing... Whenever Goose is on the ice these guys quack away with their duck calls. Goose... duck... whatevah....

That southern education system paying off.

@BuffaloSabres

Nolan very impressed by Conacher's "competitive spirit." He says, "When you've got that, that's a good sign." #Sabres

 

Enroth to play tonight, Nolan says. #Sabres

 

Nolan says "nothing serious" on Myers and he'll be back tonight. #Sabres

 

#Sabres Interim Coach Ted Nolan says Sulzer is close, likely back next game after tonight.

 

@BillHoppeNHL

Sounds like Chris Stewart is out for the season. #Sabres

I think the kid needs to go to another team if he wants to have a shot at an NHL career, he has been burned on this one.

It's always weird to me when people from Buffalo criticize the south. The two regions are on opposite trajectories, and not in a good way for our little city.

 

The Predators haven't been playing great and played last night. Tonight should be a Sabres win.
