True, very true.

Let's hope the young guys push hard enough to force the situation to come to a head.

fond memories of sobotka on line 2 and skinner on 4/bench

imagine how bad things have to be when it becomes public that an agent reached out to the (frank)ing GM and kevo had to address the issue in a presser about having an honest conversation

“Number one, I don’t have a doghouse – I don’t know, really, what that is,” said Krueger when asked about his decision to scratch Skinner yet again. "Every decision is made for the whole, for the group and the mix of our 12 forwards is as complex as it’s ever been because of the taxi squad," he continued. The way the 12 forwards evolved together the last two games, it’s been for what we feel is best for the group on this given day. Again, my job, combined with the attitude and the work ethic of a player, is to work together to find the potential of the player. May this eventually, when Jeff is called upon again, may we drive him closer to his potential working together on that solution. I would say right now the decisions are more for the players that are in the lineup than against anybody else.”

#Seahawks star RB Chris Carson is retiring from the NFL due to a neck injury, sources say.

SEA will officially release him with a failed physical designation. Under the CBA, that allows Carson to receive several million in injury protection benefits. Seattle does right by him.

Penny was the number 1 fantasy football running back for the last 5 weeks of the season

I still want no part of that backfield


sidenote singletary was the $3 RB for the last 6 weeks of the season and I want no part of that backfield either

Just looked up that game (4-3 SO loss to NJ)

Thank god Riley Sheahan played, he actually scored too. I forgot he was even a Sabre.

I am almost 50 and have watched the Sabres my entire life (really starting at 5-6 from what I can remember)

Krueger was the worst HC I have ever seen in my life for any sport. benching Skinner was the most perplexing thing I have ever witnessed. Then when you did play him Ralphie buried him on the 4th line?? Then would tell anyone who would listen that he needed more from Skinner..

I really think he has been a con artist his entire life. he talks a great game but when its time to produce you get nothing but lip service.

I think that JR coach Darcy hired as his last coach was worse, but Krueger was really bad

I like that thought, I doubt the CHL teams like it though
- Stripes77

I don't know why the NHL cares what the CHL thinks. It's a strange rule that doesn't help the NHL teams or the players.

Give him his 9 and then send him back, I don't like the not being able to play in the AHL rule.
- Stripes77

Think the real question for Savoie is what they do with him the following year. After watching KA handle Quinn, you have to assume he'd prefer to have him in the AHL. Since he can't, KA is forced into a decision he probably hates. Feels 50/50 and keeping him means they need to move someone in their top 9....or they just wait another year.

Drieger says sabres are in on chuyrun
Still hasn't been moved
Anybody hear anything else ?

Gotta love that guy that just called into GR. He called to say that he completely understands that the team prioritizes signing autographs for kids.... and then complained that they prioritize signing autographs for kids. I can't imagine being a grown man and calling up a radio show to complain that another man didn't write his name down for me.
