I might move my chair a couple inches closer to the tv.

You are doing this all wrong. I am going to move the tv a few inches closer to my chair.

Not to worry. The Leafs will tune up the sabres all year.

I want to rant, but whatever. Maybe Mojo can be a capable 2C if he's with Skinner, and Olo could be a ROY candidate. They made the most boring, safe choices possible, which is what I said they'd do in August, but then I got caught up in the preseason "competition," which I always do, and which is always meaningless, and here we are.

looks like leaning on vets


and despite what the mass wants, botts is not making calls to shop risto, same as at deadline, draft, and start of UFA

seems the feeling higher up is housley was more the problem then the players, as I mentioned in the spring


could be a long year guys and gals

- homiedclown


Well... hopefully Ralph Johansson Vesey Olofsson can offset sobotka Okposo Larry Gus Wilson.

Maybe mitts and TT are a push.

I realize house was clueless. But you are still talking the worst team in hockey for how many years? Including the back half of 2019.

Ralph May be good but he’s not worst to first good. I was expecting a couple more procedures.... I know. I know. The books are cleared next year. 90% of the crap comes off the books next year... I’m not asking for a Tim Murray move but I was looking for just a little more... I know it takes two to make a move.

Obviously I’m focused on the forwards. The D will shake itself out. Once healthy, if ever, something has to give...

the fact they will probably shove okposo in the middle 6 for the first 20 games, made me want to puke
- homiedclown


If they had balls they would send him, Sobotka, Wilson (hurt now I know) all down and would keep Asplund up.

Woah. If you do both you will have all the answers! You need to be JBs special assistant, like Jonah to Brad in Moneyball.

If they poop the bed this season, they may lose a fair amount of their fans.
I'm excited for hockey to be back and am looking forward to watching the Sabres.
I get the sense that by mid/late November I may find myself tuning out early.

That is no way for a sports team to treat their fans, and I feel bad for the season ticket holders having to put their money up again to watch substandard play. Only good news is hopefully, this is the last season of having so many scrubs in the lineup given that there should be another 3 or 4 guys ready to graduate, as well as CAP space to add another 1 or 2 solid players.

If they ain't trading Risto, then Ralph and staff better be all over him helping him to realize there is no more room for boneheaded play after boneheaded play...in other words, MF that guy to wake up and play the system properly.

- IonSabres


Thanks, I needed the laugh. Every year people female dog and female dog and female dog, and every year they come back.

Don't feel bad for season ticket holders, A) they have the disposable income to drop at least $1000 to watch bad hockey, and B) no one is forcing them to. The only way they(sports teams in general) are ever going to change is if they get hit on the bottom line, until then it's just business as usual.
