... Posted October 17 Report Posted October 17 We're half-way through the 10 game grace period. My patience is extremely short, like everyone else, but my brain says that we have to allow the boys time to adjust to Lindy. We have to remember that the prior two coaches were Donny Meatballs and Ralph "The Fraud" Krueger, neither of whom had any idea what it takes to win in the NHL. 1 Quote
Mr Peabody Posted October 17 Report Posted October 17 Accountability means Gilbert will play tonight and a d man not named Clifton will sit. And, the “second” line will get disassembled. 1 Quote
Broken Ankles Posted October 17 Report Posted October 17 Dearest Rachel I now take my pen in hand to let you know that I am well and hope these few lines will find you the same. I have but only a few minutes of respite between our battles in Pennsylvania and Ohio. The regiment has shown an improvement in our shooting accuracy which gives us much hope against a beleaguered brigade in Columbus. I pray that Gods divine plan will allow me continued success in scoring. Our resolve is strong but seeds of dissent have been sown in our trainings. The new arrivals of infantry have provided the necessary determination in puck battles but have yet to lite a torch. I fear that our inability to secure an adequate replacement for Lieutenant Middlestadt has created doubt for the company’s second line. Corporal Quinn and Sargent Cozens seem to be affected most by his absence. The financiers in the Nevada territory suggest that a victory is but a foregone conclusion at -132. After demoralizing defeats in our overseas campaign, conquest of a lesser opponents are required otherwise we stand to lose the support from the citizens of the great state of New York. Lest I should not be able to write you again, know that my love of uniform is only surpassed by my infinite love of your sweet nature.

French Collection Posted October 17 Report Posted October 17 Back to back so Levi should be in. Columbus is one of the weaker teams but the Sabres need to come in edgy from last night’s result and just play simple hockey. Build an early lead to take the crowd out and have a buffer for the third period, when their energy may sag. The PP better figure it out soon, can’t win without some help. Quote

Plus, don't sit Cozens, let him play his way through his shooting problems. At least he is getting shots Anyone calling on invisible Quinn to sit? Quote

Karmanos needs to immediately seek a trade for a real top 6 forward. Fire the GM due to another slow start following another off season where he didn't do enough? I like it. I think TP likes Adams too much for that to happen though. Edited October 17 by Pimlach 1 1 Quote

Not saying anything good will come from that unhappiness though, for all we know he could be asking Christian Erhoff to come back…. 1 Quote

He still plays but he moves to the 3rd line and see 4 to 5 less minutes tonight. He needs to play less, but do it better when he does play. Yes on Quinn - this is a good game to sit him. Kulich should play tonight. 1 Quote

SabresBillsFan Posted October 17 Report Posted October 17 So if the Sabres lose tonight when does the panic set in with the coaching staff and GM Adams Quote

I haven't seen Quinn making Beer League mistakes over and over again costing us goals and losses! Sit Cozens! Quote

Do you really have an issue with that statement? What post? I was poking at the idea that we can somehow obtain a good power play. Quote
Pimlach Posted October 17 Report Posted October 17 1 hour ago, Stoner said: Don't kid yourself. These nerds who could never win in gym class are coming for your W's. They have every intention of being the deciders of who the best teams/champions are. 5-2 will be a thing of the past soon enough. .2789% will carry the day. Declaring a winner based on scoring of goals is arbitrary, capricious and hurtful. 1 hour ago, Stoner said: Goodwill has some way in the back. What a joke. 1 hour ago, Stoner said: Too much sun!

Can’t link to the post, but it’s there. Clicked on the profile, it appears solid, but pf purse you never know. If it’s a fake account, it’s been around for a while, sharing Bills and Sabres content. Damn, one of the posts read “Power gets manhandled every game. Zero grit”. TP has a like on that. Edited October 17 by Kristian 1 Quote

Not sure what to make of it. It doesn't come off as a parody account. If it's TP, wonder if he knows people can see his likes. Not a good practice for an owner if that's TP. Quote

He does have another account that shares a lot of political stuff. The one with the likes is all Bills and Sabres. I mean, we as fans certainly don’t pull any punches, but as an owner? Ouch. Quote

HumanSlinky39 Posted October 17 Report Posted October 17 Adams won't get fired in season. He's Terry's boy. If this season ends up disappointing (i.e. missing the playoffs), I think there's a chance they move on. They will continue to lean on the "young team" excuse until these guys are all approaching their 30s. Quote
