*If only this was a realistic assessment

A few of the buffalo sabres reporters confirmed that hes been working out all summer and is fine.. Realized that with Hank he wouldnt play much anyways so its better to just keep training

Don't worry that comment will bring all the wet blankets out.

Gentlemen, I made the plung. I bought a putter. A Scotty Camerson 2016 Newport 2.5 to be exact.

Enroth replaces Lehner at World cup because Lehner isn't 100%

Very busy . But you are not allowed to talk about personal stuff here or you will be mocked . It is all related to my company and New products I have launched this year.

Yea I don't have a problem with the take. I originally thought he meant the forward group which would have been bizzare. I don't know if they're the absolute worst d-core though.

i would say there could be a debate about our goaltending tandem being the worst in the league though

I don't know about that. It has been a long time since we've had a mediocre goalie in our nets. Even if Lehner goes down I am pretty confident that we'd get someone from Rochester to come up and play well again.

the fact that we are already talking about leap frogging the backup "if" the unproven starter goes down does not paint a picture of high quality goaltending. it was a question of NHL goal tandem. if our backup is so bad that you have to bring in someone from the AHL to play over him your tandem as a whole cannot be very good

(shrug) how many backup goalies can we name?

I think they can want to give the kids as many starts as possible so they might make some starts up here. Don't get me wrong - I don't get the selection of Nilsson. The bigger point is that we've been down this road before and it always seems to work out.

Eh, Patrick Lalime was a ture fire here for 3 years. If we didn't have Miller playing 60 games a year then we might have been in trouble

I am glad that the big Swede isn't playing in the World Cup. I would rather he was 100% ready to go for Buffalo vs rushing his recovery for a meaningless World Cup. I personally could care less about the World Cup. I am glad ROR wasn't named to Team Canada. He will be fully rested and ready to go for the Sabres. Too bad Jack and Risto were named to their respective teams.
