Michael Pachla: Tired 'Nucks hand Sabres a win--Some Buffalo fans searching for their meds

Canucks stink. That's for you, 89.

Another good piece, Michael.

"C, Matt Ellis--Or perhaps they called on Ellis?...nah...nobody's touching Matt "Freakin'" Ellis. Got that?"

Well played.

I really wish we could've helped y'all out but who knows what happened. The guys were complacent. Someone should've started a fight to wake the team up, or laid someone out with a hit or something.

If Desjardins had started Markstrom he might have won it on his own. This was so unexpected, people lost money betting on this game.

Hopefully all those guys get traded and you win the lottery...

Nice Mike!

Maybe I should patanet my Matt "Freakin" Ellis phrase!

Pachla = firehose of quality.

Thanks Mike. Congrats to Sabers fans for the wins of late. As mentioned, I don't think that opposing teams bring a full effort when they arrive at the rink. And, thus the Sabers take advantage of that. I hope that the rebuild goes well for the team, and that they can become competitive every night again. It was fun to watch them in the past, and I hope that Nolan can have success as a coach.
Turn those meds into Jr. Mints Mike. I hate to see any team tank the season just for one player. Remember it take a team to make it all work. Plus, at least let your team will have a little dignity, and respect when all is said, and done.
Good luck, and good pickin's.

So after doing some back reading from last night. All of the Sudden Reinhart sucks. This is fun.

So did anybody jump off the peace bridge last night?

No but apparently Reinharts ceiling has been set. He is going to be no more than a 50Pt guy who cant skate.

AKA Cody Hodgson.

So there is that.

What? Who said that? I love Reinhart's upside, a perfect #2C and play him on the wing with the first pp unit.

Neuvirth won't be traded...and I'm still not worried.

Anybody see Rex Ryan's Buffalo Bills Ford Truck ? looks pretty good

I think that's just the concern people have. If projections come out correctly, a team with Sam Reinhart as a #2 center sounds like it would be pretty great. A team with Sam Reinhart as its #1 would just be good.

Rex really knows how to win over his audience.

Keep getting wins or the loser points like this , you should be.

Let me guess, you don't like him either.

This team still stinks. As we get into March, and teams are desperate for points, they'll get beat, as they have been all season.

Let me guess, you don't like him either.

I'm okay with him. He has his shortcomings, but when it comes to his expertise (defense), he's great.

It was spewed in the panic of last night blog.

"Strenght and Skaitng will be a concern"

"50-60 pt guy who cant be a number one center."


How about lets give the guy a year or two to develop before making claims that he is just not good enough to lead a team.

Where are the people that were so worried about "losing with dignity"? How does it feel right now? We are so close to having this all come together so nicely and it is falling apart. Frank me.
