We are very slow team under Bylsma

They've been a slow team for almost a decade now.

Speed kills, I'd rather be slow.

I don't agree so I'll leave it at that

Is Reinhart even dressed tonight? I haven't heard his name

Wow, were you stung by something I posted? By the way were you in the GM's offices when they decided to sign that guy? Did Xbox come into the descussion? Share

He was identified by analytics people before FA. But keep calling it nonsense

I'm disappointed in Reinhart, 2nd overall three year ago and he should be dominant and he's not. That was a tough year to have #2 but I hope he picks up the production.

So what Sabres defenseman scores the first goal for the Sabres defense? At this point I think it might be Guhle.

I never said analytics was nonsense, just how you apply it, analyze it.

He literally does NOTHING

And if he played against top lines instead of the 3rd and 4th lines of the league. Also if he was on the PK and the PP regularly. That wears you down and causes you to make errors. That's why the eye test is important as well.

I am convinced that the Xbox generation thinks that players get a rating, they have stats and that's it just a like a video game. Well, the real NHL is not a video game you watch how they play and you see certain skills and abilities they have or don't have.

Seems like you're talking about a whole group of people, not just me. But hey, I'll digress

Ah...the assistant coach explained it. They need more pucks to the net. But what about getting pucks deep and finishing our checks??

He must have misplaced those index cards

Hey! Look at that a referee actually in good position on top of the net so he can look down and see stuff!

You act like the Sabres are the only team that dumps the puck in. The Wild just did it 4 times in like 90 seconds.

Did I hurt your feelings man? I'm sorry, but you come in with haphazard stats which you think they tell a story about a player and I think you are wrong because the stats have an agenda based on your personal feelings.

Anyway, Fasching causes penalty and Sabres on the PP. Are we seeing why he made the team over Bailey? What do analytics say Johnny!!

This is Ennis' best game this season by a mile.

We're getting better

Ennis is looking better

More goals than our #2 overall that's playing tonight...

But hey....we.are.only 6 games in

Mitch Marner with another point....a year younger than 23

Fasching has looked really good tonight. But a couple good shifts really don't mean anything. He's still scoreless.

And the whole McNabb thing with you is weird. He's playing 20 minutes a night and has 2 goals. I'd take that over what Fasching brings any day

I hate to say it but Marner is going to be better than Reinhart and more exciting.
