When the Caps make Tom Wilson available,
we’ll all be on board with trading for him

This isn’t 1990 anymore though Boss
Facepunchers are useless
And tough guys that can actually play are hard to acquire

Risto is far from the problem and Girgensons is part of the problem.
- SABRES 89


Girgensons just pushed us in 30th again this season?

Problems: Bigger than girgensons, especially considering he's injured:

Skimmer 9 million
Okposo 6 million
Sam played 3 good games/ cant function without eich
Eichel injured or checked out or both
Dahlin not generational or even close
Krueger's system

Oh and skimmer and okposo
15 million and 0 goals

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


Crags - we're in 30th without girgensons and larsson.

So why are we in 30th? Havent they been the problem?

You cant pretend to be right, when you wanted this. 😭

I wanted to get rid of dead weight and play good players. I doubt Larsson with his 15gp, 1p, -5 statline makes a difference. Rieder has been a nice replacement.

Playing Skinner in the top 6 (or playing him at all) on the other hand is a terrific idea if the goal is to - ya know - score goals

No Borgen on the ice today. We can't have nice things.

Looked like he blocked that one shot with his hand yesterday, hopefully just maintenance day.

Neither of our bottom6 lines are playing anywhere close to as well as the LOG line did last season....
and that’s a fact

Last 80 games girgensons 14 goals
Last 99 games skimmer 18 goals


30th place with girgensons out prior to the season
30th place with skimmer in the line up.

Dragged eichel down for 2 games at line #1

The Sabres struggles this year have nothing to do with either of those two bums not playing and everything to do with us not scoring goals

We got rid of the dead weight.

Added a 2018 mvp to replace girgensons ( more or less)
Added a hall of fame 2C

Rieder has been a good addition. Acknowledged.

30th place using your formula.

Frolic, erod, bogo, Johansson, vesey, Simmonds, Larsson gone.

Cozens, hall, staal , reider and eakins in


30th place

And not limiting goals
All the more reason a good defensive line would be helpful

And again,
the LOG line was UNQUESTIONABLY better than either of our bottom6 lines this season
Not even close

You really can't say that factually.

They are in 2nd last place.

Girgensons had 12 last year.
We've lost our 4th highest goal scorer from last year.

In camp and havnt been able to replace him. ☝️

So Borgen got injured then? That sucks he was playing well. Who else is out? Or are they going to get rid of Irwin

I’d rather have Andrew Peters
Facepunchers matter

- jdfitz77



Side note - Andrew Peters didn't throw a punch the last 3 years that he was here. He had mastered the art of wrestling instead of fighting.

Didn’t realize that
He also didn’t keep other teams from running Drury or Miller either
Facepunchers have generally been pretty useless except for the supposed entertainment they provide when fighting another facepuncher

McCabe got hurt yesterday, hopefully Bryson is taking his spot, hopefully Fitzgerald is only for emergency. Did look like Borgen blocked a shot with his hand yesterday, hopefully I am wrong.

Side note-

Didnt like Peter's as a player particularly. He was tough though.

Great guy off the ice. Was always a speaker at todd Marchant hockey camp. Had time to chat and was very laid back.
