Amazing series of posts. 

Everyone is entitled to their own opinion, not really sure why people still have a problem with this.

lol, but he's not ready yet either. He's not a solution on that line. Too many fresh green faces and not enough grit imo. Adams needs to bring in a veteran winger. Another Zucker at least. Somebody to guide Cozens and Benson and develop proper line chemistry. Quinn isn't getting it done. 

He did score tonight in Cleveland. Helenius too. 4th of the year.

Scoring's not the issue. I've said many times I don't think we do the whole Rochester thing the right way but that is where they should be learning the accountability, the 2 way hockey, playing the right way, learning all those little details they need to be effective NHL players when they come up. Scoring is what comes naturally to them as star juniors, but then they find that's not so easy in the NHL. 

If they don't learn all that stuff there, then we have the frustrations you see Lindy dealing with at the NHL level and you just can't afford to lose too many games that wat and still compete.

Sabres played playoff caliber hockey tonight. Now they just need to keep it going. 

Now let's see them do that against a playoff caliber team.  I didn't think Ottawa looked particularly impressive.

Okay, so now they've done it to a playoff caliber team.  Do this consistently and I will be impressed.

I look forward to your "Okay, now that they have won the Stanley Cup, let's see if they can repeat and I will be impressed" post.

I'm fragile, okay?  I've bought in too many times just to have my hopes dashed upon the rocks.

Understandable, but this team has the right talent and the right coach to get the most out of it.  I won't be surprised if they beat out the Bruins, Lightning, or Leafs for one of the Atlantic spots. No wild card required.
