Yeah but you're just naming players we have no idea how those players are going to adapt to the NHL.. Bailey and Baptiste have show nothing yet ..

The defense is a little better but the offense is a huge ass question mark

Letting your skilled players play their game is going to help scoring all around.

The defense should see an increase in scoring.

If the Sabres can avoid key injuries to key guys like Jack, O'Reilly and Okposo they should be fine.

Can you let them at least get 1-2 real games (and by that I mean meaningful games, so next month) before you cry and whine about how bad this team is going to be? Because you don't know any better than we do on how they're going to look.

Nobody on here is saying they're going to win the Cup, so it's not like you need to "set us straight" or tell us to adjust our expectations.

The most anyone has said is that it's possible, if things come together well, that we could be pushing for a playoff spot. That's it. So simmer down with your negativity.

It will certainly help but we still have the same problem as last year the same people that couldn't finish are still going to have that problem

Maybe I will be wrong but I watched too many times last year where Jack could easily had four or five points a game but our forwards could not hit an open net

Yea I would be shocked if they don't keep him in juniors

He was hot in the beginning last year and then he tailed off

I'm not being negative lol I just think we needed that Phil Kessel type for Jack to increase the scoring and balance out the lines in my opinion

Is it really that big of a deal if they are not that good? They are basically redoing everything

Again, nobody is claiming to have crazy expectations. But you're ruining the positive vibes people have right now. We're excited there's hockey back and you're all like "They're not going to be out of the bottom 5 of the league"


Blah, blah, blah...

You guys are being straight-up homers if you think the bills defense is this all Superior Championship defense lol


They played the Jets and the Carolina Panthers whoopty Doo

If they stopped the Denver Broncos and the Atlanta Falcons then I will change my mind

We could reasonably get 20-30 goals more just from the D men. I do think we an unexpected player (girgs, Bailey, Baptiste) to have a 15-20 goal season. Everyone needs to have a good year

I still predict Jack will have 95 points this year or 100

You all can say he's not going to but I think he's going to show the Sabres who's boss
BINGO!

75-85 points. 35 goals.

Would be higher but his linemates are who they are.

denver is an average offense

people see the 42 points, there was a pick six and great field position due to their D

right now the raiders and chiefs have the best balanced offenses

We'll see. Like you said, find him somebody who can keep their stick on the ice around the net and wait for his pass. Dude makes unbelievable plays but his linemates are never ready
