i am also curious... does Pommer have a point while not on Jack's wing? last i checked that would be considered elevating someones game
- SabresFaninIndiana

4 points in his last 16 games

2 in the game vs wild, 2 in the other 15 games

Trouble in Toronto? Who should be captain? Tavares? Matthews (who had beef with Babcock)? Marner?

I really hope two teams offer sheet Marner and Matthews, just to see Toronto match and pay too much for each of them.

he did little when on the second line

all three of them play their best hockey together


all three of them can play 22 minutes if needed


it's a broken record that needs to go away, it's the best line we have had in 40 seasons

That LaFontaine/Mogliny line says otherwise.......

yes and I loved the pass to skinner but without skinner this teams a bottom dweller. skinner makes his teammates better not jack.

and eichel is doing what he is because of him maturing in the nhl, reinhart maturing in the nhl and skinner



it's stupid to put one down and raise 2 to god status


all 3 are playing great, wish the other 3 lines played half as hard

- homiedclown



You bring up a few good points.

Eichel is God status. As per hockey players.

Skinner is riding eichels skills . As well as helping eichel.


Maybe Sam's comfortablity helps eichel as well.

Still hoping to see sam set himself apart, obviously not know with the teams current success.

Its really hard to argue that sam isn't scoring points or helping us win. Helping us win, being the most important part

Jack literally won the game for the Sabres, yesterday.

Game not season. The point is Jack doesn't elevate his teammates, never has, never will. He's a follower not a leader. If we dont sign Skinner next year we will digress.

Seriously bro.... put the pipe down. Have you watched a single game this year? Did you watch any with Skinner not on the ice with Jack? Pommers with out Jack? Sheary with out Jack? Sam with out Jack? Something is seriously wrong in your head. You need help.

Berglund is a 30 year old man. I haven't gone NCNS from work in a decade. He had a requirement of his contract to participate, he has not. If he refuses to, he absolutely deserves to get tossed out on his ass.

And there was nothing in that trade that said, "Get traded here and we'll give you X amount of minutes", that simply doesn't happen. They may discuss his role, but to say he was promised top9 minutes is at best a guess, most likely a false statement IMO.

I disagree with the majority of this.

But how do you feel about bus drivers? They're people too, ya know. Except for Mrs. Dalkin, she was an actual bridge troll.

He's not a leader you say? Checks standings when Jack ECHL didn't have the C on his chest... Then checks standings when he does

Got it.

So you expect Skinner to be here next year? They didn't play together for like 6 games this year.

its the truth. Jack hasnt elevated anyones play since he got here. This team changed when skinner came aboard. If Skinners not signed we will go backwards.

This is a Russian bot. Has to be. Just pure stupid nonsense trolling.
