It really was a nice goal. I'm not sure if he was mocking him. - TheSabresTaco
Oh, no mocking intended. In my league. we're always chirping each others game play. Especially when someone who never gets a goal, finally pots a pumpkin in the garden. An obvious off sides, falling while hopping the boards... |

I'm torn as to whether I want that to happen or not. The tank is going so well. Why mess with success? - buffalofan19

And yet the Oilers are still worse. It's getting obnoxious. TM can't try to lose any harder than he is now. - TheSabresTaco
Nah. The numbers arent even close. We are worse than Edmonton. The difference between us in the standings is that we won 6 shootouts and EDM plays in a much tougher conference.
aside from a little run this season, this year's team is so much worse - homiedclown
And this discussion around here heading into the season people thought we would be better this year after moves Murray made. What a genius. I remember debating with someone over how this team was going to score 200 goals because we had several 30 and 20 goal scorers on the team, I cant remember if it was kept or deadhead. Boy that was a wild expectation. |

I figured there would be some stability with Nolan, boy was I wrong
I expected the scoring to improve with the additions, boy was I wrong
I expected special teams to be be better with the hardest working team in the NHL, boy was I wrong
I expected the d to improve, boy was I wrong
I said goalies will not be an issue with this team, and I got 1 right |

I said the same type of things. I didn't think there would be a huge improvement over last season, but I thought there would at least be a small amount of improvement.
Then again, I guess I didn't realize that Benoit would be so awful. And you never know what Meszaros is going to do on a nightly basis. Some night's he looks absolutely awful, other's I don't mind him at all. |

The clown would do well on that. Can you beat 63 Homie?
Free hint included by coincidence - theblueandgold
By the way, I dont know if you saw this earlier Homie, but itd be a good waste of 15 minutes if you need that |

I don't see those 2 as the big issue though
special teams
and basic hockey skills up front are the big issues
aside from heart, grit, effort, determination
just flat out brutal
and rochester sucks |

This season you may feel it is unwatchable. As more of the kids come along next year it should get better. I will take one unwatchable season for 7 - 10 very watchable ones. Seems like a fair trade to me. Sorry you don't feel that way . Tired of just missing the playoffs and first round exits . Willing to try something different - Maximum Signal
Don't know if you're still lurking, back to last nights convo. I got thinking about what I said and what you said. I understand not wanting to do the same thing and be the 9th place team. Don't get me wrong, I'm not mad at the Sabres for tanking. Its a strategy. To achieve a goal you must have a strategy. I'm just mad it isnt working better.
I think the NHL needs a more honest system. They need to cap the number of first overall picks a team can have over a given stretch of years to block teams like Edmonton from what they are doing. The also should have an exemption a team could cash in once every 10-15 years that says its officially a tank season. Let them go a certain % under the salary cap for the season without penalty. Put it right out there for every one to see. Just a thought. |
