Sabres finally have a very young likeable team. Win or lose.

Guys like pilut will make us competitive game in game out.

We tanked for the stars, now we need to surround these guys with competent secondary players.

I think they are 4 guys away from making a push, if they sign skinner

How many younger top 6 forwards with term will be dealt between now and the deadline?
- Lunaion


Anaheim is selling. I can guaranty you none will be dealt if nobody tries.

You are considering the entire 10 game win streak an anomaly and throwing out all 10 games to come up with your prediction? Are you also tossing out anomalous results like the Carolina game where they outplayed them but lost due to 3 goals going in off their own defenders skates?

Ok.
Let's just see where they end-up.
You dont know, I don't know, nobody (frank)ing know right?
You have your opinion, I have mine.
Yes an anomoly.
The other 38 games it most likely accounted for all aspects.
The 10 game win streak was unsustainable, exciting as hell and even more fun to watch...but unsustainable, and most everyone commented as such.
I'll take another 20 games just like them!
But to project another say 7 game streach like that in the remaing 34 games seems to be an absurd assumption...IMO.
But you are free to think what you will
MidApril will tell us which was more accurate.

Makes sense to me

Some on here act like players are so easily replaceable- when in reality, they often aren’t

Good RH defensemen are hard to find

Keep Risto as 2nd pairing
Slide Dahlin to Right on 1st
Bogo on 3rd
Nelson as 7th

Pilut, McCabe as 2nd and 3rd pairing respectfully.

Go get a 1st pairing LHD...10x easier to find and acquire, less expensive as well.

Problem solved.

Now, about this Wall and Demos talking out of both sides of their face which is lodged so far up their ass all I hear are farts!

Good post:

Hopefully someone from Rochester fills a void.
2C and 2 winger
3rd line winger
3rd defenseman

I like risto as #2 guy
Maybe being a homer.

Cj, nylander or goaloffson hopefully fill the 3rd winger spot.

I will be proud to shut down the government. I won't blame democrats. Live tv.

Stick to hockey takes

Wait, #1 LHD easy to find? Maybe stay with politics.

Duchene and Hoffman were both dealt with term. I’m sure there are more.

Bottom line it happens under the right circumstances and we can do it.

I haven’t seen anyone advocating that the Sabres should be acquiring rentals.

I may be the one to post most regularly about wanting to upgrade now, rather than waiting to draft and develop, and I have consistently said I’d rather have a known NHLer w term than a mid-late first rounder that will make contributions (maybe) in 3 or 4 years.
