FFS, this is humiliating and I don't even play for the Sabres. Imagine putting this group of forwards together and then telling them with a straight face to go compete with the teams in our division People are so skeptical when you point out how critically flawed our roster is in the offseason, and then so furious when the inevitable winds up happening as soon as enough hockey gets played to establish what teams are 1 Quote

Well, it's one of those things... if we did it consistently it wouldn't get called as a one-off over-aggressive play, it'd just be natural that we always protect the crease. Like in the NFL, the Seahawks D used to hold and mug and grab on defense every play. The refs called it a couple times, but eventually it wore off and they just let them play. Refs can be normalized just like everyone else. (And like how the superstars always draw the fouls/penalties) Quote

If you're going to establish yourself as that kind of team in order to get that favorable treatment you need to accept endless penalties until the refs give up. Which is not the easiest argument to make when your team is also bad. Quote
