I have not watched a second of the last two games

Quinn’s debut in a 6-1 loss is not interesting in the slightest

But at least it was an entertaining 6-1 loss….

Imagine the excitement of them playing during the Bill's game with Aaron Dell in net.

I didn’t expect anything. I’ve been saying they need more talent and can’t rely on the graduation of the recent draft picks to pull this team forward.

So you trade all your vets for draft picks, then turn around and trade all those picks for vets? ....and KA comes out with a winning hand?

It doesn’t matter what I think because the Sabres are awful. And nothing is going to be done about it this year or next in which I assume they are bad again. this is the worst stretch of hockey we have ever seen in the history of the franchise.

I don’t believe anyone has said trade “all” of them.

Devon Toews was a guy who was moved for two 2nd’s last year and is probably a top 10 D man in the league right now

If the Sabres are truly committed to a data based approach they should be able to swing those types of deals every once in a while (not necessarily getting a top 10 D man but good players that are undervalued)

I don’t even bother anymore. You suggest you trade one asset or two and you are dooming this franchise forever

So VO nets you a 2 or 3
Miller a 2-4
Prob some Random for 5-7


The Sabres still haven’t finished tearing it down.

Samson Skunkhart on pace for about 30 g's and 50 a's.

Good thing we traded him and gave him what he wanted after his buddy Jack told him it works just take your tandem bike and go home.

Looked like Tampa was playing a pickup game at the park last night. Really need to make adjustments at defense and are breakouts. Horrible passing and way to many giveaways.

At least we finally saw a hattrick without an ENG. Props to NK. I forgot what those things look like.
