If you need your coach to continually fire up the team and have them ready to play, you have the wrong team. Players need to be self-motivated. Coaches are there to help turn it up when the self-motivation falters, they are not there to replace it. This team is still looking for those 1-2 players who will do that. They don't have them right now. They haven't had them in a long time. A few Joe Pavelski's might help. Def NSFW 2 Quote

Her husband is a Penguins fan as well, so hopefully the home team gives a solid showing tonight so we don't have to listen to him all game :) Let me know if you want to say hello since I missed the SS meetup. Sure, I'll be in and around 116 Quote

Notice he is wearing an A, not a C. When you do for a long time you can make those speeches. You can get away with that even without the C or A. We don't have many vets that can make those speeches. Bogo, Pommer, and Okposso can and should be stepping forward like this. 1 Quote

Wyldnwoody44 Posted March 1, 2019 Report Posted March 1, 2019 I am off for the evening, I was looking on stubhub just for an eve out, but I'm not paying 30-40 a ticket to these guys, so I may find something else to do, it may or may not involve the Sabres, so very sad, 3 months ago I would have found a way to see them one way or another Quote

Whips? An epic speech pre-game and in-between each period? Promises of more video game time on the plane? Snakes? Edited March 1, 2019 by MakeSabresGrr8Again Quote

Since then our Sabres totally drained that enthusiasm into indifference and I am not even sure if I will watch. Quote

Mustache of God Posted March 1, 2019 Report Posted March 1, 2019 What's the over/under on games before Wilson moves up to the 2nd line? Quote
Samson's Flow Posted March 2, 2019 Report Posted March 2, 2019 Glad to see the enthusiasm. Barely two pages at puck drop Quote
OverPowerYou Posted March 2, 2019 Report Posted March 2, 2019 (edited) Pittsburgh is probably the only team we can catch up to because we play them twice. We have to treat every game like we are down 3-0 in a series Edited March 2, 2019 by OverPowerYou Quote
Mustache of God Posted March 2, 2019 Report Posted March 2, 2019 I'm looking forward to getting a look at Montour. Was spared watching the Philly game. Quote
