No morning skate today, so these (much better) lines are from practice yesterday

Skinner - Eichel - Pominville
Sheary - Mittelstadt - Reinhart
Smith - ERod - Torpedo
Sobotka - Larsson - Girgensons

D is a who knows since Bogo and Risto didnt practice

Assuming Ullmark starts

**** this team. I’m so mad at them

Something similar to this is what I was going to write, so I’ll quote j instead.

I’ll still watch though. It’s the sad reality of Buffalo sports. They suck. We watch.

I'm thinking I'm gonna miss this one. They generally suck in Florida, against Florida teams. f*** them.

Okposo out with a concussion. Is that the rest of the season?....meaning the team chooses to shut him down.

5-1 loss with Housley in the postgame talking about how he liked the effort and they just lost because of bad breaks.

Those damn bad breaks!!!

Housley has proved beyond a shadow of a doubt that the gods are clearly aligned against the Sabres. That’s the only reason they aren’t in playoff position

Maybe, just maybe Sobotka won't be a complete tire fire while playing with Larssensons???

Not expecting much. Just watching to see if they've quit on the coach or if anyone else "lost their love of the game" yet.

I commend those who didn't completely give up on this team like I did when they let Yandle molest Skinner just before blowing their lead.

I've grown to both expect and accept the losses. One might say I've reached a Buffalo Billsian inner peace.

Our extra TV died early December. Haven't bothered replacing it, and quite frankly, am in no rush to do so, despite paying for the extra Direct TV box each month.

I'm thinking I'm gonna miss this one. They generally suck in Florida, against Florida teams. **** them.
Especially against the Panthers.

One of the best line-ups I can come up with, excluding a recall from the minors to let us ditch Sobotka. Now here's to hoping Housley doesn't jumble it a period in like he tends to do.

Three centers on that bottom line, and they continue to use Erod as a 3rd center instead of moving him up to the top two lines on a wing. As a fluke, he played with Mittelstadt and Reinhart for half a shift the other night and that line looked dangerous. For all the shuffling Housley does, it's amazing what he never tries.
