and i have respect for him as a journalist...don't care for his style but i also realize that he's had to cover this sh!tshow for the last 10 years under the pegulas...it ain't the easiest thing to do
- Michael Pachla

Every journalist who mentioned Hike Marrington has no respect for his journalism. Tim Graham, easily one of Buffalo's best, thinks he's a chump because his questions are usually just emotionally charged, angry rhetoricals.

Dave. He will teach the young kids how to stay out of debt.

Terry read that and just got an old man stiffy.

This is Kim and Terry Pegula we are talking about. Regardless of how Granato has this team playing and how good the kids look, the Pegula way will be to walk away from Granato.

They will then hire Ott as head coach because he has proven to be a good assistant, has buffalo ties and is not a center.

Now Ott could be a fine coach. But the Pegula way says to step away from what might be working and jump right back into the unknown.

When was this part ever true? Things have generally sucked around here.

This powerplay is (frank)ING RAW

If you recall, Eakin was benched in one of Granato's first games.. until Cozens was injured. With Rutso you can even swap out Reider and put him with Cozens and Okposo with Sheahan and Caggiula. He wasn't claimed to sit, and he definitely wasn't claimed because we need a body like we did with Remi Elie. Adams went out of his way to talk about why he liked him, so he's going to play. With him, you can bench Reider and Eakin. Neato.

Speaking of Satan.

Does anyone remember when he had that long goal drought?

And his celebration when he finally scored??

True. It needs to be rephrased... let me think how to reword that better.

didn't he change his number during that drought?

I usually can't stand him, but this year his questions have become cathartic. He's generally unprofessional imo, but other than that, the questions feel good.

Don't remember that!

Do remember the crazy celebration!

I made a follow up statement and amended our sweet boy into the lineup.

I was wondering about Eakin finding a seat on the pine as well. I think part of the reason he played recently was cap considerations but that shouldn't be true now with Hall's contract (somewhat) off of the books.

Between the scout-o-matic 9000, the possibility of dropping to 3rd even if we suck the most and just general Sabres luck, I'd rather see them pull this out of the fire to whatever extent possible.

We need to start making sacrifices to the hockey gods to atone for our tanking sins.

I was done with losing on purpose 3 years ago. I'm very done now
- jcragcrumple

Even more reason to bottom out, at least for me.

I’d rather lose this lottery tbh because if there is a chance we suck again next year I’d rather win that lottery for Wright

- TheSabresTaco

he asks tough questions, some of them being questions fans want answers to as well...his style isn't the greatest, imo, but he's out there asking them
