I feel like I have been saying this for the past 5 seasons at least, but I don't think I can get more apathetic about the Sabres season this year.

There will be no lower point than the Before Don Granato (BDG) games. At least on the ice. This season is 100% about the development of young talent. Which is why I'm more excited about these camps and watching college, AHL and the Sabres under 23 talent than I am about the actual season itself.

You can't rely on those. Every single person is unique and handles the viral load differently. Antibodies can vanish within weeks or months. Antibodies doesn't even guarantee that a person contracting covid for a second time will be able to handle it at a lesser severity than the first time.

You can say the same for the vaccine. That's the issue here and why the booster is such a hot topic in the news right now.

If he can become a reliable bulldozer on the third or fourth line, cool.

If his skating has gotten better, him working the boards for Cozens and Quinn could work and then plant that 6'4 body in front.

Vaccines have a longevity that antibodies may not necessarily have. If a virus mutates, a new or booster shot will always be needed eventually, hence the "need" for yearly flu vaccines. Vaccines and antibodies are conceptually the same, just like wood fences and brick walls keep horses on one side of them.

yeah I dunno. I'm not too high on him. Would be nice to see a guy pan out though.

Only time I ever got the flu shot was in the service, and got sick!! Haven't had one since.

It's a very confusing discussion for people to comprehend.
I am not saying I'm an expert, nor the most informed.
I consider my knowledge on the subject to be average.

I do find if interesting that people take such a strong position based on their little knowledge, ridicule others based on inaccuracies and assumptions; such that their whole argument is void ...yet they keep blasting away digging deeper and deeper.

Let's try to keep it simple.
Masks do provide some level of decrease in spreading the C-19 virus. They do little to protect you the wearer. Those little blue surgical types give people false hope that they are greatly protecting themselves when wearing one...if only they considered the context for use is surgeons wear them to reduce their own germs from transferring to the patient...not to protect themselves from the patients germs.

The vaccine greatly protects the vaccinated from suffering serious illness and hospitalization in the event they are infected themselves. The vaccine does little to nothing to stop the spread of C-19 virus...it does not protect others in that way.

Those who have had the C-19 virus have antibodies in quantities that may and do surpass those who are vaccinated ... in actuality, it is likely that those previously infected by C-19 are now more protected than the vaccinated, lol.

Both the vaccinated and those previously C-19 infected can get C-19 virus again and pass it along to others..both vaccinated and unvaccinated "victims".

Yelling at a previously infected person to get the vaccine under the premiss that they are responsible for killing others is just inaccurate at best.

Moral of the story
If you haven't already been infected, get the vaccine to protect yourself (reduced likelihood) from serious illness and hospitalization. It does not stop transmission of the C-19 virus to others.
The mask can help reduce transmissions...it does little to protect you when wearing one.

Spot on. Should be a "break glass in case of an emergency" bookmark when thread is about to go off the rails due to Covid talk.

I'm going to be pounding the table for a Peterka-Cozens-Quinn line to start camp. I may even leave a postcard in Kyvyns mailbox.

He was outside watering his shrubs a few days ago, gave him a beep and a wave.. stared, waved and looked like a dope. He's not a dyck, so that's cool.

Have your Wife make some brownies or something and spell out "Quinn Cozens Peterka" on it or "Get Eichel out of Here" and take it over as a good Neighbor approach.

Oh my

I blame it on Hank The Baller.
Gotta put out more content more frequently...like 2x 3x per day.

Seriously, nice job on the roster preview Hank.
I believe this roster is well positioned for 32nd. That said, I think the Yotes will give them all they can handle to guarantee a top 3 pick next draft. Donnie could very well screw up the plan by getting the kids to enjoy playing again, tapping into youth and enthusiasm.
Adams is going to need to channel his inner Tim Murray GM Tank Commander skills!
- IonSabres

Absolutely agree uncle ion.

Donnie could get these guys going full steam and suprise some other teams.

Especially if upl somehow shows up ready to play nhl quality minutes. ☝️
