McCabe was good when he hit Laine that one time.

Aaaaaaand that's honestly about it.

He's also responsible for the first 15 games of Rasmus Ristolainen this season when everyone thought risto turned a corner.

McCabe gets hurt and poof... Risto turned back into a pumpkin. McCabe is very good at defense. He's bad at staying healthy and his offense isn't great, but defense he can do

So they both finally didn't look like dog crap and partly because they got 2D minutes. I just want all of the old core gone. McCabe, Ristolainen, ECHL, Skunk, Skinner, all of them.

I'm like 5 or 6 accounts according to these guys.

Pegulaville is our special boy #2.

We don't talk about special boy #1.

I get the desire for change. He is actually good at defense though which is something the Sabres don't have a lot of

Flagged by accident.

I still want McCabe back. That guy is captain material and he's actually good at defense.

If he can shake his injury woes I see him doing great things

- Hank Balling


Agreed
I think he’ll get some decent offers to move on to a better team though

I mean, he has concrete feet, no brain with the puck and gets injured a lot. He should have realized like 3 or 4 years ago that he was a stay-at-home defenseman, which to me, puts him in the same conversation as Ristolainen. He just never pulls it together.

Time to move on.

Think McCabe stays on a 1yr deal, prove he's healthy and then signs elsewhere, at that time Power Samuelsson will be ready to fill out the Left side behind Dahlin.

I'd like to know what some of you guys are on about today with that Kucherov crap

https://www.nhl.com/news/...c-325448744?tid=325280136

This is one of the most common hockey plays in the game today. The opposing player braced himself from a hit, Kucherov didn't expect it, they collided awkwardly.

Gtfoh. Guys acting like he got shot.

You’re missing the sequence where he gets cross checked by Mayfield prior to them going back into the Tampa zone

Exactly my thoughts. McCabe for one year, power in college and Samuelson in Rochester. Move those guys up in 2023 and flip McCabe at deadline for a 3rd

And he got up and skated away and then tried to throw a check and missed, that's when his arm started hanging.

And then hopefully you have Johnson signed and ready to play in Rochester.

Sucks the guy tore his ACL. He was going to get paid big time this offseason.

Yeah like when Lightning fans were booing when Sorokin got up after taking a puck in the neck. Yeah every fan base has them besides the Sabres evidently. Islanders are riding some sick luck though. Incredible.
