I must have missed it - which teams are out-toughing us? More importantly, we looked like dogbleep with both Risto and Lionheart in the lineup the last half a decade. Nothing different with them out.

The Sabres are in 30th place after their big win yesterday.

Give Rhino a little credit, he's the only one that tried to hit Wilson with his purse after the Hall hit.

Rhino's 2 goals were difference makers.

So you want to see a Risto extension this summer, long term, with a raise? If so, I think you might be the only one here.
- Lunaion


Yes, absolutely extend him.

Most of the posters are consistently wrong, so I really don't care.

He's played well last season and part of this season until his covid bout.

Keep looking for that 1D to replace him and his minutes.
Pick a guy #1 overall.

Dahlin still can't hold risto's jock.

I there's one guy that leaves and wins a cup next , its risto. He's built for the playoffs.

I've probably seen risto play live 100+ games.
It hasn't been all good, but he isnt the problem.

They miss him

1st game I missed this season.

Does every poster need to acknowledge when sam scores goals?

3rd good game of the season šŸ›ŽšŸ›ŽšŸ›Ž

His play has improved no doubt. Still a 2nd pairing at best.
Maybe Adam's has realized Covid can be his friend for contract negotiations...rather than paying a guy 33% too much.

Well when nobody is scoring, then probably yes, just like everyone has a opinion on Olofsson when he scores.

I always hate the 'isn't the problem' argument. It works for anyone. The top 6/top 4 get the ice time and they are losing. Everyone in that group is part of the problem.

Games aren't won or lost by scoring goals. They're won by making a lot of noise, looking tough and accomplishing nothing.

I learned that at the Don Cherry correspondence school. I majored in scowling and minored in truculence

bump

we felt casey deserved to get a chance and provide a spark

obviously in a shortened season, guys are gonna need to sit out so as a team we are fresh

we like what skinner brings and expect him to be a strong piece moving forward when we get him back in the lineup

but right now casey is working hard and we felt as an organization he deserved a shot to play

I have always Disliked Reinhart he's soft and brings nothing to the table rather have Wilson on this team or kassian.

A friend of mine golfed with his agent mike luit a few years ago. He definitely asked out.

Sounds like he likes Ralph now.

Guy's are strange, small town Buffalo is comfortable for some finish, Latvian , swedish player's.

Rhino is what he is, a good top 6 winger, he brings 50 to 60 points to the table. I get the frustration with him cause he disappears for stretches at a time, it frustrates me, but he's tough in his own way and that he is always available, he's only missed like 6 games in his career.

I was actually making fun of Rob Ray's "keys to the game" for every single freaking game in which he has been the analyst. It's funny that all of these other teams seem to actually be making plays to score goals rather than tossing prayers at the net from the point.

You Probably won't like " these 2 havent been playing, how is 0 goals in 8 periods their fault "

30th place is absolutely not girgensons fault
30th place isnt risto's fault, 1-3 without him.
6 goals scored for in 4 games
11 goals against
2 points out of 8

Sabres lack toughness. Girgs and risto are clearly 2 of the more physical players.

This is skimmer's fault.
0 goals and 9 million
0 pp goals
0 5 x5 goals

The best way to have him not score 0 goals is to have him in the lineup

Jack could really be an awesome 2C.

Just need that 1C

Draft a generational #1 talent and let him take risto's job as clear #1 defenseman. Maybe year 3?

Nope - risto still outplaying everyone on buffalo's d.

All the sudden joker smells too?
I really never saw whatever flacco and others "see"
How many " core" lists has he been on
