my big problem, is Murray is standing pat

there was a handful of players on waivers, he could have taken a flier on 1 or 2

my other problem is the coach waited til the 5th game to put reinhart on the dot and try to get 3 lines instead of 2 lines and blah

There was no need to make a move(s) and it's still too soon to as of now also, like I was told before, he will wait it out and see where things go from here.

Guys, lets not panic.


This team has gone from awful to disappointing. It's a an upgrade.


They are scoring goals. That's all I ask at this point. At this time last year we were averaging 1.8 goals a game, year before 1.6, now its 2.8. It's something.

We've also played exactly 1 home game.

Very nice to see Moulson scoring, always liked him.

I predicted 20 goals

I also predicted 30 for Vanek, he scored again last night

they could have picked up a better player on waivers IMO than Grant

Same here. I felt bad for him last season. Both him and Ennis should have been the first two shooters.

Not for anything because my opinions are stupid anyway but..... I am reading posts this year and just like the past 10 years, so it seems, I am reading posts saying "it is early things will improve" or It's only 5 games into the season... Blah Blah Blah.... So I have only 1 question.... Exactly how many more seasons will we be saying this? Every season it is the same old thing only with different faces..............

Yeah, Byls sucks at choosing shooters.

8 points

Just curious. COuld Bylsma call for a review on the last goal for Goalie interference.

Schenn made contact with Nilsson in the crease and then was laying on top of him during the scrum, resulting in him not being able to make the save.

That's how the review has been going, what makes this play different.

2 things Ray.

1) I gaurentee you are not more negative than me.

2) This is different. Are they great or gaurenteed to be great? No. But they aren't the slap ass 2012 Sabres and they aren't the tank team.

You know Buffalo... It is just that we see a 10 point improvement in a season and think they are suddenly a much better team.... I say bullcrap.... coming out of the bullpen at the start of a season and winning 1 of your first 6 games is plain old garbage. And making excuses because of injuries is more bullcrap.... it is now looking like it will be 11 years without any playoffs..... BULLCRAP.....

Right...bu we are being sold the same bill of goods as when Briere and Drury left...Connolly was a #1 center......Roy was a QUALITY top liner....Vanek and Pomminville were LEADERS ....and of course the guy in the net #30 was going to lead us to the promise land....

Same B.S. story...different faces

How long before theyre called "the hardest working team in hockey" ??

You mean playoff series wins?


Let's face it Ray, Eichel plays they probably win 2 of the aforementioned games. It is what it is. Right now, the Buffalo sports scene sucks a big fat ass Richard. Worst team in College FB, NFL with longest playoff drought in all of sports, Sabres haven't been good in a decade. I get the frustration. We all want worst to first. It just isn't happening. But hey, Cleveland is on track to win 3 Championships in 5 months. Ask Cleveland fans where their heads were at 1 or 2 years ago.

You need to become fairweather fan. It's the only way to keep your sanity in Buffalo. I used to schedule my life around Sabres games. Instead Thursday I'm going bowling. If it's good I'll catch the replay, if not, (frank) it. Oh and Sunday, not watching a lick of that football game.
