kinda like Franson on that first Ottawa goal
- Michael Pachla

That pair is a disaster.

Pysyk and Risto are our only top 4 I have confidence in

i love how people feel the need to say nothing at all
- IndianaSabresFan

Amen

he seemed afraid to use his body at all
- IndianaSabresFan

I don't know that he'd be afraid, it just looks like his strength and balance aren't very good yet. Those are correctable and pretty common for young players so he should be fine but might benefit from playing this year in the ahl instead.

It wasn't actually, though I know I already said it today.

At this point, I'd almost say it's best to just keep him here and let him figure it out at the NHL level. The AHL is more physical, but the NHL is faster. So I'd rather just let him get adjusted to the physicality and the speed all at the same time.

there were a couple times it seemed like he shied away from using his body along the walls.

That pair is a disaster.

When Bogo is healthy he is in there as well.

Eichel - Kane - Gerg = EKG line or is it more appropriately the..
Kane - Eichel - Gerg = KEG'r line
Either way it brings life to the party

If we enter trade market:

Jonas Hiller - Good fill in till Lehner takes the reigns for good.
Joni Ortio - Solid player, still developing, definitely a 2 for now.
Anton Khudobin - A much better backup than CJ. Can handle top minutes.
Reto Berra - mmmm...pass. Decent, sometimes.
Kari Lehtonen - Doubt Murray wants that salary for a shoddy goalie.
Nic Backstrom - Old and crusty. Not much better if at all than CJ.
Marek Mazanec - Played pretty well during Rinne's recovery. Young and cheap.
Thomas Greiss - A better than average career backup. Better than CJ.
Andrew Hammond or Matt O'Connor - Can't see this happening at all, but they will be carrying 3 goalies when Burgler comes back.
Kevin Poulin - ...Backup. Not gaining much here.
Kristers Gudlevskis - Probably as good as CJ now but I can see him becoming pretty good.
James Reimer - Woof.
Ryan Miller - That poop would be funny.
Justin Peters - Another average backup.
Ondrej Pavelec - They love Connor Hellebuyck and Hutch, and will probably lean on those two once Pavs is gone. I assume if they could move one of the three, it'd be Pavs. I'd pay more to get the other two though.

Emery, Bryzgalov, Harding and Budaj are also available. Emery probably the best bet there.

When Bogo is healthy he is in there as well.
- ImThatGuy

Which seems more often he is not. I think he helps, but they have 4 guys that are better suited to be in a 3-4 role right now than a 1 or 2.

That was quite the epic collapse your team had last night. Maybe you should keep Berra.
- HonkFortheGoose

God, that was such a piss off, that was 100% on roys shoulders for mismanaged that game, at no point should Nate Guenin be matche dup against Parise in the 3rd.

He acted and coached lik ea bum last night

Its one game...

I'm not gonna beat anyone up and label them as "bad" or "soft" or whatever after 1 game. A lot of jitters, a lot of hype, and ALOT of monkeys on players backs.

We have 81 more to go and we all knew it might take a little time to settle in and fine where guys are comfortable playing.

It's ok to say Weber is bad.

Parise got my fantasy team 16 points last night.... I can't be mad.

Trade for Miller

- TheSabresTaco

He is a 6th/7th at best in the NHL. We just can't try to assume he is better than that with Bogo out.

Colaia, Pysyk, Gorges, Risto, Franson, and McCabe should be in there.

you can thank Roy for putting nate Guenin up against him in the 3rd period when he got his hat trick and decided that EJ and Beauchemin shouldnt get that match up.

Trade for Miller
- SABRES 89

I just got a really cheap authentic Miller Sabres jersey last night... it'd be perfect timing!!

Miller is NOT elite

I have 4 of them

I have 4 of them
- SABRES 89

I got an Authentic Girgensons home jersey a few weeks back.... it comes on Monday finally.


I gotta decide who to get as their aways. I kind of like their whites better than blues. I'm between ROR, Kane, and Risto I think.

That pair is a disaster.

Pysyk and Risto are our only top 4 I have confidence in
- sbroads24

2nd goal was 100% Ristos fault he looked BAD 90% of the game, Pysyk had a few good shift but was also horrible with tunrovers. And all of our defenders are soooooo slowwww. Not a single top 4 guy on this team right now for any other team in the NHL
