LGR4GM Posted January 11, 2018 Author Report Posted January 11, 2018 No, two. Casey Mittelstadt will be here next year too. Not enough. Kane goes you need Mittelstadt just to come in and replace his offensive output to tread water. Let's say we get Dhalin, now the defense is a bit better. We still don't score enough and still need 2 top 6 wingers. 3 bottom 6 players that occasionally score. 2-3 defenders depending on Antipin. All of those guys then need to actually mesh with the team quickly and create chemistry. Seems unlikely at this point that we will be playoff contenders next year. Really depends on what Botterill can do between now and the end of July. Quote
PromoTheRobot Posted January 11, 2018 Report Posted January 11, 2018 Martin BironVerified account @martybiron43 1m1 minute agoMore I think we might see Ullmark vs Columbus tonight. He took shots before the optional morning skates with the goalie coach and went off the ice before practice started. Johnson and Lehner are on the ice right now. John VoglVerified account @BuffNewsVogl 5m5 minutes agoMore Considering Jason Botterill just told Linus Ullmark to have fun tonight and he deserves it, I’ll go out on a limb and say he’s starting in goal for Sabres tonight. So, kids, tune in to see if they still suck! Yes. I hate when people try to say stuff like this. It is like when someone says "Alabama could beat the Bills!" No they couldn't. The NHL game is faster and more physical than the AHL game. Matt Moulson can't buy a goal or an assist in Buffalo but has a ton in the AHL. The Sabres would beat an AHL team. I guess a sense of humor is one of the casualties of this season. Quote

sodbuster Posted January 11, 2018 Report Posted January 11, 2018 I no longer regret spending $12 on tickets for this game. Quote

Matty Mo has 3-15-18 in 14 games in the AHL. Quote
Sabres Fan in NS Posted January 11, 2018 Report Posted January 11, 2018 Matty Mo has 3-15-18 in 14 games in the AHL. So, it's very obvious that the Sabres were not using him in the right situation, eh. Quote
dudacek Posted January 11, 2018 Report Posted January 11, 2018 Matty Mo has 3-15-18 in 14 games in the AHL. He’s coming back baby! Quote
inkman Posted January 11, 2018 Report Posted January 11, 2018 So, it's very obvious that the Sabres were not using him in the right situation, eh. Correct. With that situation being the AHL. Quote
pastajoe Posted January 11, 2018 Report Posted January 11, 2018 If Faulk fights Kane during the game, do they both get 5 minute penalties? Quote
Sabres Fan in NS Posted January 11, 2018 Report Posted January 11, 2018 Correct. With that situation being the AHL. ;) Quote
CallawaySabres Posted January 11, 2018 Report Posted January 11, 2018 Totally forgot there was a game until Stubhub sent me the alert that all 6 tickets just sold - I would have totally forgotten so thank God someone who still cares bought them! Quote
R_Dudley Posted January 11, 2018 Report Posted January 11, 2018 (edited) All in favor of a change of fortune for the team by inserting... into the lineup. Let the electricity flow tonight, Go Sabres. Edited January 11, 2018 by BLINDGÅNGAREly Quote
DarthEbriate Posted January 11, 2018 Report Posted January 11, 2018 Well now we're all going to watch the game so as to hear/see Modo becoming one with the Force. I think it'll go a little like Return of the Jedi... Imperial Officer (playing the role of the opposing team): Bring those two [droids points in the standings] down here. C-3PO (playing the role of the 2017-2018 Sabres): We surrender! Ullmark and Guhle (playing the role of a whole pile of Ewoks): Aieeeeee! Modo: <begins blowing the many battle horns of the Ewoks, many wins for the Sabres ensue> Quote
pi2000 Posted January 11, 2018 Report Posted January 11, 2018 Have a reason to watch now... that and will be interesting to see how the team responds to Phil's harsh criticism. And hopefullyh a Kane/Falk tilt in warmies. Quote

Scottysabres Posted January 11, 2018 Report Posted January 11, 2018 What's the over/under on this game, I still have time to call my bookie Quote
PromoTheRobot Posted January 11, 2018 Report Posted January 11, 2018 I no longer regret spending $12 on tickets for this game. You must have luxury box seats. Quote
darksabre Posted January 11, 2018 Report Posted January 11, 2018 You must have luxury box seats. They're actually letting him suit up to play defense. Quote
WildCard Posted January 11, 2018 Report Posted January 11, 2018 You must have luxury box seats. Probably owns the team They're actually letting him suit up to play defense. I mean I can stand awkwardly in a corner too. Quote
Stoner Posted January 11, 2018 Report Posted January 11, 2018 I no longer regret spending $12 on tickets for this game. Question. For Callaway and Promo too. At some future point this season, on a weeknight against a crummy opponent, what do you reckon it would cost me to sit in the 200 level, maybe a little shaded toward the end where the Sabres won't score twice? I always sit up top for the bird's eye view, but maybe once I'd like to see Jack's adorable flushed cheeks. Quote

Just go on stubhub or seatgeek and buy tickets the day of the game (as late in the day as you can manage). Out of curiosity, I checked tonight's game on stubhub and you could sit just outside the blue line, lower level, row 15 for about $30. Quote
