Michael Pachla: How far have the Sabres progressed 48 games in?

Drama Alert.


Back to read

Way to many if's.... LOL. But at least we are checking some off the list. Nice write up!

Eleven in the plus column, 10 in the minus and three that are inconclusive at this juncture.

11-10-3

Nice job, Mr. Pachla. You basically nailed it, if you compare that 11-10-3 to their record. Nostrapachlus!

Still a fun year with a lot of hockey to go!

Maybe u should go get your meds adjusted...
Psycho 

If my posts bother you, 
then just breeze on by

MANY athletes say what they need to in order to get second chances, and third, and so on

If u don’t think that... get a freaking clue

that's what happens when you come off of a last place finish and have a hefty turnover

Very True....Me thinks we will have another long list this off season as well. As well as another big turnover. (Hope)

So fitz has sent me two lovely private messages in the last two days over his post about Berglund and his issues. Hey fitz you're a real class act and thanks for those warm greetings. You're a real peach.

I know what you posted and others found it disgusting as well. I replied by giving you facts that Patrik Berglund has issues but you decide to send me a profanity laced message at 5am?


Oh and I will hereby request that you don't send me any more private messages and reply to any of my posts and I will do the same. And don't reply to this.



Adios everyone! Go Sabres!

Privately harasses other people for saying he shouldn't say Berglund was making up his mental health issues. Cool guy.

unbelievable .... Well not really I guess. I hope you reported him, that's way out of line.

You know you should take a break from a message board when.....

I think there are deeper issues here..... the guy needs help. Clearly.

I'd like you to predict that we'll get to see a few kids here after the break, or maybe a shakeup trade. Maybe it'll happen then...

me too...


...however, wouldn't be surprised to see botts make a move up-front to give it a shake as long as the price is right (no sabres first round picks involved)...only one Rochester forward I want to see in buffalo and that's smith

hopefully not as long
- Michael Pachla

LOL is that even possible??? But seriously, Dahlin is a HUGE check off the list.

What do you think the main problem is with the power play? Is it personal or Coaching?

unfortunately I agree with you... I was hoping Nylander was just a late bloomer but I think he needs to me moved for something we can use moving forward. Im kinda surprised by Olofsson I thought he would be better in rochester....Maybe he just needs a year down there.

coaching is part of it...then again, it might be how they attack it from the back end...

haven't (and probably won't) go back, but from what i can recall, when the power play worked better they seemed to be much more aggressive in taking the puck where ever it was in their own zone and immediately heading up ice...now I see a lot of behind-the-net set-up and it's so easy to defend...

don't have the empirical data but that thought came to me a few games ago

interesting, Hadn't really thought about that but now that you said it. The other thing I've noticed is the passes seem to be slower, but maybe it just me.

maybe confidence works into the equation as well...the more confident you are, the faster you play the game
