GDT: #65 - Sabres vs. Leafs at 7 PM ET on MSG-B, NHLN, and WGR

[Daz28]

we shouldn't have an EN when we don't have our best players out...

The line that got stuck out there from 3 minutes on was garbage

[littletonhockeycoach]

Wow, last nights OT not withstanding, this team is pretty much an embarrassment on the ice.

Not sure I'm going to wear my Sabre's gear to next week's game vs. the Avalanche...

 

[5 Minute Major]

You won’t get back an equal or as you believe a better return. Won’t happen.

Yeah, Quebec probably thought that when they traded Lindros.

Again, nobody should be safe.

Nobody.

And every possible way to improve this sorry ass franchise needs to be explored.

 

[Fezzy126]

Truth. Though it wasn’t funny to watch.

Yeah, his idea of "funny" is different than mine

 

[Ralonzo]

Lofl, Reilly with a weak shot from center ice "shots never a bad thing" spit out my beer after just reading your post

It just made me sad besides beer is worth something unlike the Leafs

Yeah, his idea of "funny" is different than mine

 

[BM14]

I can't wait to see these Beaches get rocked out of the playoffs by Boston....

Delete.

 

[Howie Hodge]

Not sure why you would ridicule him passing along the shots. Something that takes place every single game throughout the game. It’s about as innocuous as you can get.

Wow, someone's a little defensive tonight! If I could give you my last few beers to help ease your tormented soul I would!

Just kidding, no one is touching my last four......

 

[CrazyPsycho]

Nylander and CJ each with a 1+1 tonight

Sighhh

 

[Daz28]

At least I got rid of that JD before it spoiled.

Dude Jack fire is the only thing we should have in the house on game night.

 

[littletonhockeycoach]

That statement really typifies what is basically wrong with this organization.

We are not just a player or two away from being a contender for the playoffs. Our needs run much much deeper than that......

Love 2 kneecap the NHL team

I can live with the plan to keep the group down there. But I don’t like that the group down there doesn’t include Thompson and the group up here doesn’t include CJ Smith or O’Regan at this point (based partly on age)

Roch would give the Sabres a decent game

They wouldnt be able to stop Eichel but otherwise i like Rochs chances

Look in the crisper

 

[MayDayMayDay]

Cannot wait to watch that team get shit stomped in the playoffs. And I cannot wait until this franchise turns the corner and we're the team doing it.

 

[CrazyPsycho]

Should be a loss or 2 away from them "giving up" on the playoffs and maybe getting a callup or 2

 

[sabrebuild]

Can we trade Housley, Botts and Pegula? Cause otherwise you are a braver man than most to think Eichel or Dahlin will be dealt wisely.

 

[Howie Hodge]

Better news down on the farm. I posted the box score under the Amerks/Cyclones thread....

Don’t care that much about token call ups at this point. Let the group in Rochester keep this season rolling. They are winning big games right now. That’s a learning experience and a step up from what they could do last year. Keep them away from this cesspool.

Id think they would at least want to give Nylander and Olofsson a couple games just to see...but your point is a good one

Yeah. Keep the winners winning. Form a core down there. Bring them up when they’re ripe.

Look in the crisper

Dude! Stella and one Mich Ultra in the crisper! Mrs. Hodge gets those when she's not mad at me for watching too much hockey and comes back!!

Doubling down on Leenus may mean we're already there. I'm def down with 'next year' mode, cuz I'm not Terry Pegula's accountant, and I don't care about playoff revenues. Imo, owner's can't afford to be cheap anymore. If you're a budget team you'll end up like Ottawa.

I’d love to see them get a couple games as well. Mostly because it would give a reason to watch. But I can live with it not happening as well.

STELLA! Got to admit not looking in the crisper was a rookie mistake. 37% of crispers in WNY contain stash beers we got drunk and forgot about.
