That's what multiple years of losing does to you.

Take the Chicago Cubs for example. The World Series is theirs to lose this year. Their fans are still waiting for the other shoe to drop.

This is definitely a contributor. I'll admit, even though I try to find the good in everything, I'm always more cautiously optimistic.

You're opening up a huge can of worms here.

But yes, they have the best record right now. They lost 2-1. I can't really comment on much in terms of the game because I didn't really get to watch any of it. But, overall, they got 3 of 6 points on a west coast road trip without two of their top 6 forwards. I'll take it.

I see the line to the bridge is long again, 4 games in and people are jumping. Not shocked, half jumped when they heard Eichel was going to be out.

The part that gets me is that a healthy lineup from day 1 probably gives us a real good shot at 4-0 to start the year.

We are missing out of, if the team was healthy and have the same record as we do now. Then I think we might have some concern. Still early early in the season. . Better road trip than we had last season and it's now out of the way.

NO way listen to all the people saying we suk..... we might not win 4 games all year.... we only have 5-8 players that are worth keeping.

That is the strongest statement and case to be made so far that the team is better.

Not that it helps right now, for sure, but it does provide hope, which can often be a dirty word.

I really wish they would just suck it up and put Gorges on the bottom pair with either Franson or Nelson and have either McCabe or Kulikov with Risto.

Gorges is clearly not working on that pairing.

Annoyed by the quality of play last night; however, I am still opptimistic about our ability to stay around the.500 mark until Jack and Kaner come back

While there is 0 doubt we would be better with Eichel, this team was dead last in possession after 3 games.

And we faced the powerhouse Flames, Oilers and Montreal.

Right now this is a 1 line, 2 defensemen team. Adding Eichel won't be enough. They need guys like 63,28,22,47, and a few others to play like it's the regular season.

I think Armia caught that puck Bogo threw over the glass with all the time in the world to pass it to someone

The negative vibe on this thread is unbelievable. It isn't even fun anymore. You all are great at being negative but when good things happen to either the Bills or Sabres you all run and hide.
