I love Housley's style.

I love the Gospel.

Those two aren't the same thing.

Hyperbole is great, when used properly.

Why don't we let Housley win a game or 2 as head coach before ordaining him Reverend of Hockey or whatever ?
Typical Sabres fan.

That was the most entertaining game I have seen in 5+ years. the sabres were extremely fast and the D looked miles better then years prior. We may not be a playoff contender yet but if we can play every game like the first we will be fine.

i don't want to burst anyone's bubble but let's remember that it's October 6. NHL hockey is always wide open in October--more shots, more goals, more flow, less physicality. that looked like a preseason game last night. when these 2 teams meet in November the'll combine for 55 shots.

Ok, fine. Despite never winning anything, Housley is a God among Head coaches.

No duh man. No duh

If you are expecting any 25 and under to have experience an epiphany, listen to anyone, show some form of accountability, tact, self-reflection or anything in remote neighborhood...you are sadly mistaken.

I just hammer them now.

Who said he was God's gift to hockey? Not even Garth said anything like that.

He said something along the lines of his players are buying into what he is teaching them to do -- which is play a fast, attacking style. No where did anyone say anything about him being 'Ordained' or whatever nonsense you made up in that tiny little brain of yours.

It's 1 game. They play 82 (I only say that in case Larssonfan reads this because he probably thinks they play 162 or 16). It's hard to judge anything from 1 game.

They looked different than last year, and Eichel is really good. That's about all I gathered as-fact in game #1...

Sometimes my body feels like it's 70+ years old. And I'm pretty sure my liver is receiving a senior discount on coffee...

Welcome Back Dookie3030...good to see you calmed down a bit since our last chat.
Garth called him the Reverend, and yes, Garth is going overboard on what a great coach Housley is.

To set the record straight, I don't hate the Sabres or the fans, I just like making fun of Garth and the stupid things he says that are false. He's a homer in it's purest form and his judgment is cloudy as (frank). He's so over the top but when I call him on his Bullpoop some of you guys get a little testy...which is fine.
There are 3 basic things I pick on Garf about, and spelling isn't one of them.
1. GMTM always gets his man....
-except he rarely did. At least not with McDavid, Babcock or Vesey anyway....so Bullpoop? Anyway, he's out, so we'll move on.
2. Jack Eichel is a generational talent.
- He isn't. That isn't a knock, he's an elite talent, he's just not of the rarest ' once every generation ' category reserved for Gretzky, Mario, Howe, Sid and McDavid. Eichel has the potential to be remembered along the likes of Malkin, Ovechkin, Messier and Jagr...not sure why any of you take issue with that.
3. Every new coach/GM he gives way too much credit for his former teams past success. They are clearly good hockey people , that's why they have the jobs, but it's kind of insulting to Rutherford when Garth names Botteril as the 'architect ' of back to back Stanley cups, or saying Housley led the Preds to the finals.

Having said that, The new guy has done excellent work this summer fighting all GMTMs wrong to the best of his abilities, and I think the Sabres will be in the mix for the wildcard spot this year.

If you guys wanna spazz out over what I just said, go ahead, doesn't bother me a bit.
