Crusader1969 Posted March 9, 2018 Report Posted March 9, 2018 Nylander? Or Casey? The sad part is Nylander isn’t what they thought on draft day. Nylander was a perimeter floater in the OHL. What’s changed? I’m not sure Boqvist is this year. Injuries and playing against men when he wasn't physically ready for it. No reason to give up on Nylander, we can just go revisit the posts from those who gave up on Reinhart to see how wrong we (fans) can be. Quote
North Buffalo Posted March 9, 2018 Report Posted March 9, 2018 Its tough because Sabres stink and TM gave away too many picks for guys who havent panned out. That being said, we forget some guys just take longer to develop... some never do... what choice as fans do we have... but hope and pessimism... show me deal. JBOTs has his work cut out for him.

I wasn’t a fan then, I’m less of a fan now. The Sabres and Nylander need to sit down with him and his representatives and explain to him what needs to happen in the off-season. He needs to get stronger and learn, like Reinhart has, that he needs to play around the net. Quote

Crusader1969 Posted March 10, 2018 Report Posted March 10, 2018 watching the Dahlin vs Boqvist matchup this morning and also get to see Olofsson play. He has 2 goals so far as Frolunda leads Brynas 8-3 with 4 mins to go. Both goals in close with accurate wrist shots. Quote

GASabresIUFAN Posted March 10, 2018 Report Posted March 10, 2018 I’d like to see Jack and Guhle in a match race. Guhle showed some impressive speed in that OT vs LV. Quote
Thorner Posted March 11, 2018 Report Posted March 11, 2018 I’d like to see Jack and Guhle in a match race. Guhle showed some impressive speed in that OT vs LV. I’m not sure there’s a faster straight line speed skater once Jack gets going, in the entire NHL, including McDavid, after viewing the faster skater where Jack had a terrible start and still came close. His long powerful stride pulls him ahead the longer the distance of track available. Quote
Marvelo Posted March 12, 2018 Report Posted March 12, 2018 (edited) I for one am sorry for ever predicting that Alex Nylander be our #1 draft pick in the 2016. If Murray ever saw my original post and got the idea from there, I am sorry. He is slow to develop as a player with confidence under the screwed-up Sabres system. Also: missing Nikita Zadorov. Edited March 12, 2018 by Marvelo Quote
dudacek Posted March 12, 2018 Report Posted March 12, 2018 Personally, I blame Marvelo for all Murray’s mistakes. Quote

Yeh I miss him too could you imagine him and Risto together... Quote
inkman Posted March 12, 2018 Report Posted March 12, 2018 Yeh I miss him too could you imagine him and Risto together... Maybe he can play center as we wouldn't have our current #1 center. Quote
SwampD Posted March 12, 2018 Report Posted March 12, 2018 (edited) Yeh I miss him too could you imagine him and Risto together... I don't miss him at all. He's an anachronism. His largeness and big hitting style has no place in this skaters' league. Plus, didn't he miss a meeting when he was, what, like eighteen years old? Edited March 12, 2018 by SwampD Quote
Sabres Fan in NS Posted March 12, 2018 Report Posted March 12, 2018 Maybe he can play center as we wouldn't have our current #1 center. Exactly. I am glad we have ROR instead of him and all the others we gave up for ROR. Quote
Lanny Posted March 12, 2018 Report Posted March 12, 2018 I don't miss him at all. He's an anachronism. His largeness and big hitting style has no place in this skaters' league. Plus, didn't he miss a meeting when he was, what, like eighteen years old? Vacation flight got cancelled. Quote
North Buffalo Posted March 12, 2018 Report Posted March 12, 2018 (edited) Oh totally realize we got ROR for him not complaining about trade but I miss him. Edited March 13, 2018 by North Buffalo Quote
SwampD Posted March 12, 2018 Report Posted March 12, 2018 Vacation flight got cancelled. ANTICS!!!! Quote
North Buffalo Posted March 13, 2018 Report Posted March 13, 2018 ANTICS!!!!I ville be baaack... that ought to give a few here papatations and not because of Zadorov... Quote
MODO Hockey Posted March 15, 2018 Report Posted March 15, 2018 Olofsson will be a great sniper for us, trust. Very talanted Quote
GASabresIUFAN Posted March 15, 2018 Report Posted March 15, 2018 Olofsson will be a great sniper for us, trust. Very talanted Just need to sign him and get him over here. Quote
LGR4GM Posted March 15, 2018 Report Posted March 15, 2018 Just need to sign him and get him over here. We are waiting for his season to finish. He is under contract in the SHL which is why he wasn't signed last summer. Quote
Stoner Posted March 15, 2018 Report Posted March 15, 2018 Hope. Patience. Until then, suffering. Wash, rinse, repeat. Quote
LGR4GM Posted March 15, 2018 Report Posted March 15, 2018 Hope. Patience. Until then, suffering. Wash, rinse, repeat. No suffering here. I just stopped paying any money towards the team. I stopped paying attention. And I went on to live my life. Quote
Drunkard Posted March 15, 2018 Report Posted March 15, 2018 No suffering here. I just stopped paying any money towards the team. I stopped paying attention. And I went on to live my life. This. It's amazing how much less the team stinking up the joint has bothered me since I stopped buying merchandise, attending games, and paying for center ice. Not being financially invested has made me less emotionally invested as well, but I still log into this board every day to see what's going on. Quote
