Isles will win, its Ralph Machio bobble head night.

 

[sabremike]

If there is a fight someone MUST sweep the leg!

 

[kirby11]

JT is gonna steamroll us

 

[sabresfan129103]

3-1 loss. Don't worry though, our coaching staff isn't going anywhere.

 

[Aladyyn]

Embarrassing effort resulting in a loss.

 

[Oakstream]

Bounce back win. 4-2 Sabres. Eichel, Kane, Larsson and ROR with the goals

 

[Sabre Dance]

I lost all hope again, this team is healthy and doesnt look any better than they did injured. The only difference is when Eichel turns it up they can score.

Im in full tank mode again. There is too much not good enough and the only way to fix it is at the top. Dan must go. The only way he goes is to lose.

So please Dan, keep playing Gorges and Des. Keep riding Lehner. The misery will end soon enough.

 

[Chainshot]

Hmmmm, do I upset the family by maneuvering to watch this game tonight or do I just anticipate another frustrating loss and wrap gifts while maintaining domestic bliss? Hmmmm... tough call.

put in family time during the 1st and then slyly turn the game on at the start of the 2nd. win/win

Lol

With the way their first periods have gone, they'll already be losing by the time I get to turn it on.

 

[1972]

Eichel only has points in 4 of 11 games...that's not good at all.

 

[Scherbs]

Eichel will be flying tonight.

5-2 win.

Let's go.

 

[Zip15]

Sabres win, 2-1. Then Bylsma trolls the board by starting Lehner over Nilsson on Tuesday night in Detroit.

 

[sabremike]

Anyone else going to be in The House That Corrupt Eminent Domain Built tonight? Making it a DH with St Francis Basketball at 2PM because why see one game when you can see two?

Can Greyson Allen play hockey?

Kyle Okposo with a hattie - Sabres win 4-2.

Brilliant! Wish this place had a "like" button.

 

[Sabres Fan in Cali]

Unfortunately not going to make it to the house that Jay-Z built tonight. Bad timing. Christmas party tonight at the bar in Queens that shows the Bills games and a 6:30 AM flight back to Buffa-love tomorrow morning.
If you are a member of the Displaced Sabres Fans on Facebook, I'm sure they are going to have a meet and greet during one of the intermissions. They usually take a group photo as well.
Sabres win 3-1 tonight. Okposo definitely with a goal.

 

[OkimLom]

Night before a holiday, 2nd half of back to back, Bylsma is still head coach, one the road...I'm expecting a 6-0 loss.

 

[Deleted member 27798]

Deslauriers and Grant on the 4th line is a freakin' joke. It is on Murray that he didn't sign a vet on the cheap for the 4th line, and on Bylsma for playing Grant or DesLauriers over Carrier.

This rebuild from the tank is starting to stink a whole lot like Edmonton. This was my biggest fear...that this team does not come together like we had all hoped. I really hope they do not wallow in mediocrity for the next 5 years or more.

If the Sabres finish in the bottom 10 this season, I think DB is gone, and if next season goes the same way, Murray should be shown the door also.
