Michael Pachla: Positive trends may make this run a bit different for Buffalo Goals are up and so is their pace as Buffalo is beginning to make headway

First .....morning everyone

And to start off the day Robin can ride the bench

Robin needs to split time for remainder of season

Good blog and great analysis thus far.

I am cautiously optimistic. If they can keep playing like they did last night only good things!

Can we finally put to bed "Did we draft the right Sam?"

#Bills & Sean McDermott meeting today at Pegulas' home in Boca Raton, Fla. All signs point to finalizing a 5-year deal to become HC.


Like I said last night following a jet works ....


Not that anybody cares but the pegulas jet picked McDermott up and took him to Charlotte and are staying the night

Headed back to Boca Raton tomorrow morning

I have a glimmer of hope they better not be destroyed on Thursday

Nice win last night, one of their better ones this season. Great to see Samson quietly putting together a 50 - 60 point season. Perhaps with his recent elevated play, attention on this board will shift to that BUST Eichel......

Good read. I love "the quiet one" nickname

He'll be back in no time, don't worry.

It sure seems like a foregone conclusion that the only D they will be protecting are Risto and McCabe.
- kingcong39

Makes no sense to do that though. If they go that route, they can only protect 6 forwards. Might as well protect a 3rd d-man and use the option that is 7/3.

No more like maybe they're not a complete rack and just need some little tweaks

Will find out on Thursday

Wait till you see the whole pic. Hope is a HOTTIE !!!

Funny hearing Disco using the phrase "North Hockey" in the post game presser. Is he feeling the heat from his star to change his ways a bit and let these guys succeed their way, and not his? It may help him save his jerb (unfortunately).
