I think the big problem here is that for the Amerks to be good, you need Bailey, Baptiste, Guhle to be good, if not real good or great. HOWEVER, with the Sabres looking like they are (for the most part slow, especially the forwards, and losing), as soon as Bailey, Baptiste, or even someone like C.J. smith shows any consistent great play, they are likely to get another shot with the Sabres....thus gutting the Amerks again.

 

I usually see 1 or 2 Amerks games a year (and catch any on TV if they happen to have one or two shown in Buffalo) so I'm looking forward to watching them.  Fasching seems like a great buy...but I really want a fast skating team, top to bottom...I don't see him fitting in well to the NHL in the near future.

Vs Laval again tonight. Down 3-0. Tie it up with 37 seconds left. Win in OT. Awesome effort. Baptiste with 2 goals. Walked out with a package of zweigle’s chorizo sausage. Firing up the grill when I get home.

Guhle had 2 assists and was much better. Nelson is still awful. He was the zweigle’s chorizo of Dmen. Ullmark had an assist on the OT goal. It was a wild 3rd. Shots on goal were 29-10. We mauled them like badgers.

We're they giving away sausage?

How about waive Moulson now and bring up Smith. 0

Moulson is useless. CJ at least has speed... Can't believe I'm saying this because I love his moxy, but Larry looks slow... wondering if he should sit or be sent down.

Larry as in Johan Larsson? He wouldn't clear waivers.

You waive him.  If he doesn't get claimed you assign him to Rochester.  Simple.  We'd actually save about $1,000,000 in cap for doing it.  Moulson played 8 minutes last night against the Phx.  He is no longer an NHL player and therefore should no longer be on our roster regardless of salary.

I agree. It virtually eliminates any possible chance of trading him but the odds of that are practically zero anyway. Bite the bullet and bring up one of the kids to take his place.

Amerks were down 3-0 by 7 min into the game. Looked like trash. Taylor called a time out and chewed them out. Flailing the papers in his hand around like he was going to smack someone up side the head.

End of 2 and Amerks lead 6-4. They scored 6 in the 2nd! Six different goal scorers with Guhle being one of them. He’s really played well with in the 2nd. Finally getting physical.
