Just caught a bit of the game while working, but it seemed like the Sabres were on a breakaway every time I looked up. Maybe our depth on D isn't quite as good as we hoped.

I think you only looked up when they scored. I'm not suggesting that Clendening or many of the other patchwork D looked like NHLers tonight, but the Canucks were the aggressive team. They threw away a win tonight with their lack of finish and with their giveaways. It should have been a standard win.

Well, LA lost to the Sens and the Wings beat the Sharks so it wasn't that bad.

Coho is so deep in that dog house

It's like he has taken the last 12 months off

He actually makes Leino look like a competent NHL player

I fuking hate llamas. I got spit on by a llama at a zoo in Russia once, smelled like llama spit for the whole rest of the day. If you don't know what llama spit smells like, let me just say, it isn't very nice.

Llamas are like pen fans, alpacas are like leaf fans. Llamas are always judging you. Alpacas look like they are brain dead

WTF happened last night? Did we play as bad as the score sheet says? Was looking at game stats and Kassian played over 16 mins. 3rd highest of all forwards. Is WD showcasing him? Or did he actually play good? The stats don't make any sense. Did we give up on the game early and just spread the minutes around?

Honestly all I can think of is the boys were on the final game of a five game eastern road trip. Were probably fatigued a little and Came into this game thinking it was going to be a breeze and the Sabres pounced on them.

I wish I could have been a fly on the wall in the locker room post game thats for sure.

Would bonino+kassian+ Stanton be enough to snag lucic out of Boston?

We'd have to add Horvat and a first.

No offence pal, but the trades you have been coming up with are awful.

No offence taken, my value has been real off lately. Prices are insane right now. I look for potential equal value and there just is no such thing anymore.

It's a cap thing too. If the cdn dollar keeps dropping, I don't see teams willing to "help" teams get out of trouble.

It's bad. We beat top 10 teams with tough, level headed play then play like garbage vs bottom feeders. These are the games that could ending up costing us a playoff spot. s**t away two points against a god-awful Buffalo club.

Two things need to happen and I mean quickly. We have to get a look at Markstrom SOON at the NHL level and hopefully Benning gets a deal done to fill a need by Monday.

Four days until TDL . With the UFA s not having contracts signed they are all trade bait including Dorsett and Matthias.

We could also move any of Tanev , a goalie, Higgins Bieksa Burrows Kassian.

Let the games begin.

I know getting old. Can't drink 4 nights in a row anymore. Waking up 8 am with the kid kind of sucks the next morning.

We do. If he is asking too much to sign , Benning may look at moving him.

Very slim chance he gets moved, but he is one of the names that could bring back a return.

Talks have started with Dorsett, Mathias and Richardson not. Probably be a different story if they didn't have so many injuries.
