My deck just got covered in the past 15 min. Roads look greasy

We didn't get any snow at all the last storm. Just S.E. of the chevy plant .

edit: update.. looks like an inch and still snowing .

We have a light dusting here. Just enough that there's white on the ground but you can still see the ground in a lot of spots.

See I think all of those things in the scouting report were true at the Junior level. Something things just dont translate. Hodgson was actually a very good prospect at the time. He had just lit it up at the world juniors and was the leading point producer ahead of Tavares. All things were pointing to him being a good player at the NHL level. Just didnt happen..

Hodgson definitely doesn't have the hustle in him, but he scored admirably for us last year....part of me wonders if it's a linemates issue as well?

I think he's just lost in general. It might be that he just doesn't feel like he fits in anywhere. I'm not sure how to fix it though.

Agreed. As bad as his defensive game is, It didn't bother me nearly as much when he was scoring. I'd have to imagine we would get a bag of pucks for him if we tried to move him right now.

Hey guys check out my 1/4 season mock draft (lol)

Its pretty early but what the hell I had some fun with it. Let me know what you think

Good Read (blah,, blah).. The Sabres just have to finish 30th,, just have to. Anything else and this season is an utter failure. I don't want Strom with our 1st...I want McEichel with heavy on Eichel (hope he can do at least one chin up).
And they have to package NYI' and Blues 1st, or either with a prospect to get higher pick in like top 5 or 7.

Oilers will finish 30th, unfortunately.

You need to drink more...try Boirbon...just wonderful!

Agreed completely, except for the "Not sure how to fix it."

If he's lost in general, it's because he doesn't know his role on the team, or doesn't understand why his role was given to him. Either one of those scenarios is the result of ineffective communication from the coach.

We won't get McDavid

Max Tretiak grand son of Vlad is draft eligible this year.


Lets hope what they say about it skipping a generation is true.

We won't get McDavid

Attitude has nothing to do with it, the Canes, Flyers, Devils and Oilers do.

Or, or!
Not that there is anything wrong with that.
There are many athletes that way, just ask Myers.

No, not as much. I'm sure most didn't think the Oilers and the Canes would be bad, the Sabres were suppose to be the worst.

Plenty of time left to sort that out. Guess you forgot about the first 20 games. Sabres have won 7 of their last 10 and yet they are only in 28th....

I didn't forget anything, people are hung up to much on the 1st or 2nd pick and IMO it's a mistake.

Ya, have to say...I thought the Sabres would be runaway losers...that Coach Theodore is a gem though....boring, winning hockey.
I wonder if Theo keeps succeeding, if TM will have to get involved to "right" the ship for the ultimate Objective.

People hoping for the 1st or 2nd pick is a mistake?



This team is actually worse than last year.

They won't tank, it's not going to happen. Murray needs to put his stamp on this team, the "rebuild" has started. Nolan won't let them tank and he shouldn't, Sabres are in a tough spot.

Yea it's a mistake because other teams are bad as well and that wasn't suppose to happen.
