I would much rather have Mike Weber as a 5D than Rex Ryan as a head coach.

First post, been reading for a long time...I promise to be nicer than HardHat and as delightfully argumentative as Maximum Signal.

Question: Did anyone think that we were going to magically become a consistent force in the NHL? Did Jack age 3 years this summer? Has any NHL team repeated a last place start, even made the playoffs the next year (probably, but I'd be willing to bet most don't)?

Everyone agrees they are much better. So what RoR, Kane and Jack did for me was make the Sabres much more enjoyable. The Detroit game was a tough loss...it has been a long time since the Sabres elicited any emotion out of a loss other than utter acceptance. Reinhart looks to be the real deal and same with Jack despite what I feel are just endurance issues (the most easily fixable problem to have IMO). Kane may not be the 40 goal scorer we all dreamed of, but damn can that boy skate and hit. I'm very happy with the team and when guys like Bailey, Baptiste and Thor (Fasching) start coming into their own, they will be replacing very replaceable players. Thanks for the good reads folks, and may I pray...never stop arguing.

1) Nothing delightful bout it...
2) No
3) "He's 19 not 50"!!!!!
4) I'm not sure... I'm as lazy as jack Eichel and I won't research it.

This team is exactly where I expected it to be... Picking another top 5 draft pick.
But more fun to watch.

If this team doesn't fix the damn offensive line then I don't care how many skill,players they bring in, the O will always suck. And we are seeing it live and in person. Get active in FA there this offseason.
Fire the D-coordinator who is wasting the Dline talent by using a system they aren't built for. Good Coaches adjust their system to the talent on hand...not the other way around. That is Rex's biggest mistake.
Here we go wasting another 2 years changing the personnel...by then the coaching staff will,get fired and boom, we start over again.
Dumb organization.
