Get over the Gerbe thing guys. It is what it is. Come playoffs you think teams wont be able to gameplay against Gerbe?
- Buffalo-Sabres

We're over it. I just think its ironic because he was the least of our problems. He had energy and this team is just plain dead. I wish the best for Gerbe.

If I say it once, I'll say it a million times, Grigorenko is being devoured whole by that idiotic CHL transfer agreement.

He's clearly not ready for regular NHL action but junior hockey is a waste for him too.
- Ryan_Wilson

Hes not a third or 4th line player. Needs to play with people who can score like vanek.

The biggest problem is that we won't suck enough to get McDavid in 2015. Teams are going to be purposely tanking that year, and our idiotic management is too proud to follow suit.

Wont have to purposely tank. This team is clearly the worst in the nhl. Mcdavid going to to pull a lindros and refuse to play for this organization like he did Quebec.

I just know we wont end up getting him, even if we finish last, we will lose the lottery or something.

That's my fear. However we have a way better chance getting a great player sitting in 30th than we do 4 pts out of the last playoff spot. Plus young guys are getting time.

Can't lose if you draft one of Barzal or Noel or Strome

Can't wait for the game against Chicago tommorow. Working on a drinking game for that.
- Buffalo-Sabres

Skip the game. Just drink. A Lot.

Well I don't know, 2nd game in 2 nights for Chicago...... Buffalo lights the lamp and gets a win, they have to win eventually right ?

AND...the team that won all those rounds in 98 and 99 is basically the one he and Lindy inherited from Muckler and Nolan.

You remember them, the "hardest working team in hockey".

October 12th and I have already written off the bills and sabres for the year.

“I was hurt in 2011 and it was something I didn’t notice right away,” Gerbe, 26, told the News & Observer. “I kept going and played 40-some games, which probably did not help me. I got to the point I struggled to take off my skates and put on my clothes.

“My recovery from surgery took about seven months. I was cleared to work out the day the lockout ended, and I jumped right into games, without a workout, which may not have been the smartest thing to do. But I’ve gotten stronger in the offseason and feel healthy and ready to go.”

That's the kind of player you can look up to right there. That just shows you how dedicated he is to playing. Sad to see him go and I wished we would of played him on the top lines more.

What's the outlook on the bandits? They are our saving grace of sports franchises.

So how bad will the score be tonight? I am saying the Hawks light us up 7-1, with girgensons scoring our lone tally at the end of a blowout game.....I'll hang up and listen.

That's the thing other than Columbus it really hasn't been a blow out. Who knows maybe we actually score more than twice tonight.

To me it's the feel or look of the team. The scores might not be out of hand but the way they played has been awful.

Bring back the Stallions!!!!!!!!!!!!!
