Through two:

1.  The Sabres are playing as physical as anybody.  If we can bury, for now, the myth that the Sabres can't/won't/don't play a physical game, I for one would appreciate it.

2.  For the second game in three, they are being "goalied."  Expect more of this as more teams get used to the fact that the Sabres have a scoring machine in the form of Thompson and play their starters rather than backups.

3.  The defense actually looks ok.

4.  But they're losing.

What a save by UPL.

Screw that I've been waiting for this team to stop playing like choir boys for long enough.

They dont have the mules for it. 

Getting caved in every fight isn't gonna help them. 

Florida has acquired those playoff types because they believe their window is open now. 

The Sabres window is still a ways away. The boys are developing nicely with potential upgraded replacements on the way.

Unfortunately, none of the reinforcements bring things to the table that the Sabres are in desperate need of.  Hitting, toughness, aggression, agitation.  More shooters and puck movers. Sigh.

Right. Moves will be needed but at the right time for them.

There's always that type of player available in trade and the Sabres have plenty that teams will like in return. 

Some day.

You know how they say every year a team should draft a goalie?  Every year I would draft at least one player with the attributes you listed above.

I couldn’t agree more. Every draft needs one a-hole.

I'm more than ok with this, but that's not the problem today.

They haven't been close to the playoffs either. 

They will when they need to.

Being a doormat for every team isn't helping either, You have to have a common ground.

Far from a doormat I'd say but you are entitled to your opinion
