Sad part is, with the injuries pilling up it won't help the " Fire Bylsma " charge. They will say it's because of the injuries he stays. Guy has no passion.
- SABRES 89

Neither does Daryl Sutter. Kings should dump him.

Do I think Bylsma's a good coach? Eh. He's alright. I like that the Sabres seem to have a system now. Better than Nolan's dump, chase and do whatever the (frank) you want.

But would I be opposed to Bylsma getting fired if this team is a mess near the end of the season? No.

Internal injuries for Kane according to Bylsma. Yikes. Spleen? Correct side for it. Wrong side for a liver lac or something like that. Maybe a rib broke and punctured a lung? Wild speculation obviously. None of it is great news.

Buffalo gets a bad rap. Sure it snows here, but not nearly as much as it does in Syracuse/Albany/Oswego. The city itself kind of sucks, but there are areas that are great places to go and live and Pegula has almost single handedly revamped the downtown area near the arena. And it's up and coming, as derelict, industrial areas are starting to be remodeled. Plus the suburbs are a great place to raise a family. Crime is very low, cost of living other than taxes which are stupid high in Erie county, is very low.

I don't want to call it a dirty play, but it was certainly unnecessary for Emelin to push Kane like that:

Make a trade for Rakell Murray! a 2nd and a conditional 3rd that becomes a 2nd if we make the playoffs. Obviously a contract would be necessary for the deal to happen in the first place.

Any football fans remember when Chris Sims got beat up so bad when the Bucs played I want to say the Panthers? And they hit him so hard, so often, I think 7 sacks, they ruptured his spleen and he needed emergency surgery after the game.

Haha perfect. The only smart thing said was whoever pointed out that it was no use playing ROR until he's healthy.

Reinhart, McCabe, Kane before injury were the positives tonight.
Thought Fasching and Ennis were close to invisible..
Gorges was terrible.
Refs were pretty bad too.

I don't even recall hearing his name if he played.

Edit: He played 11:39 1 SOG -1 won 6 of 11 draws.

A little bit of venting.. It's frusterating to see guys like

Stempniak and Pirri score and be big parts of their team when both guys were under the radar shake ups and signings for their respective teams really pisses me off... It was great to see Moulson score but besides that we looked awful and I know there's no Jack no Okposo no Kulkov and for some of it no Kane but these same "core" players aren't doing anything but miss prime chances and it's very frustrating to watch goal scorers we could've easily picked up for cheap in FA this year score key goals

You can't leave. Once you become a fan of the Sabres or Bills you're bound by an unbreakable curse. A lifetime of pain and misery and most of all... Suffering.

These lights are really annoying at the start of periods with the ice still shiny.
- Wetbandit1

Actually brought my sun glasses in for that but we found it to be not nearly as bad as the preseason game. I actually got a headache from the eye strain at that one.
