All you're telling me is that you don't watch enough hockey to know who Tanner Jeannot is.

Dahlin is going to be the best defenseman in the league. You can see it.

If not definitely top 5.

He is actually hitting people now and getting under the other teams skin.

Big difference from a year ago.


Also the turnovers and bonehead plays are disappearing

"Don Granato has received texts from Rasmus Dahlin after games in which the defenseman feels he played beneath his standard.

The question: Can we watch film tomorrow?

"Sometimes other guys have a bad night, they don't want to talk to a coach, they want to hide from a coach," Granato said Wednesday. "This guy, he cannot handle not having success, and he'll look in the mirror and say, 'I need to be better.'"

This can go one of two ways.

He sounds like he wants to be the best, and that'll either translate to huge success or the obsession will eat him alive.

I'm betting that he's going to be a top 10 Dman in the league.

most sabres fans have zero reasons to watch the preds play

they play a more boring style of play then the bolts, panthers, oilers, leafs, caps, canes, colorado, etc

and they are in the west



if I threw a random third liner for the sens, you probably would not know much about him

This guy isn't random. He's potentially in the Calder conversation. Especially if he hits 25-30 goals. Do the Sens have one of those?

I'll hang up and let the cannibalism continue. It's more fun watching than participating.

I live in a market in which I watch some Preds games. I like this player and think a player like him would be a great future addition to a talented, small and soft Sabres team. And then I get poop on. That's what happened. I'm not trying to die on any hill. That the problem with this place. its hyperbolic.

Dog photos, people, dog photos. Can the Sabres win two in a row before we start this confounded hockey talk?
