dude its like youre watching a different team. Having a bunch of depth forwards doesnt equal forward depth lmao. The Sabres have 3 legit top 6 forwards on top of that their entire dcore consists of guys that cant play d at a top 4 level, they might as well just put 5 forwards on the ice. Dahlin is going to be good but Buffalo fans act like hes already one of the best dmen, when hes still got a lot to work on defensively. Its the same as last year, they ride a hot Hutton until he craters and they fall apart.
Right.
IM Watching a different team. Me. The sabres fan who watches sabres games..... as opposed to you the leaf fan who thinks buffalos first ten games this year is just like last year when it has been night and day different. In how many ways exactly? I don’t know just about every part of the game possible? Lines are different, additions Re different, coaching and system
Is different, they lost half a dozen games to
Start last year, have one of the best powerplays and even strength production in the league? Are 7-0 going into the third, are perfect at home.... I don’t want to start a big fan base thing but I don’t think leaf fans should be the ones to talk about three too forwards and a hot goalie but alright.
Of course Hutton is going to not be as hot, of course Buffalo won’t maintain this pace. You act like Ullmark isn’t a solid goalie he had one year behind a bad defense and was still reasonable. He’s been good this year too. It’s a pretty good thing Buffalo isn’t relying on an older carter Hutton who’s in the last year of his contract due to having one of the best goaltending prospects out there as well as Ullmark. It’s also a good thing that Hutton’s playing for a new contrAct somewhere right now isn’t it?
I seriously doubt you’ve watched any game this year, the only time buffalo hadn’t won this year was in overtime in Columbus and against a 5-2 ducks team at the time after losing. 2-0 on a big
Road trip
I guess Just keep hoping they lose, keep hoping the anomaly of blowing a ten game winning streak or points in nine of your first ten two
Years in a row will happen. We’re not even guaranteeing we make the playoffs but they absolutely should be playing for the wildcard and everything they’ve been says that. You just don’t want to see it. You can even see the frustration in your writing. They’re not just getting lucky their fourth line out was out changing opponents 31-7 by just a few games ago when they showed that stat.
Sheary missed a few games and has been producing, Johansson and Jokiharju as well as Colin Miller have played great to add depth, skinner has six goals and hasn’t needed Eichel for the most part since theirs a second line that can score finally with him on it. Meanwhile olofsson who lead the shl in goals and scored 30 in the ahl has been dynamite as has Reinhart. Mittlestadt has looked really dangerous too.
You do realize Buffalo hasn’t even had Montour, a guy that most teams would be happy to take in their top four (some teams would love him as a top two, not most but some) or bogosian and the ever promising Pilut. That’s literally theee dmen that could be starting on the team that they haven’t needed.
You don’t think Marcus Johansson is a top six forward? And you don’t think
Mittlestadt or Olofsson have the potential to be top six forwards?
Well with how you talk about Buffalo it’s a bloody miracle they’ve gotten 17/20 points have fun in fantasy land and we’ll keep watching the actual NHL. I have tried my best not to be cocky or anything and that’s not even what I’m being but I just sense some Insecurity that you feel Buffalo, just maybe, just might, finally be putting something good together. And it clearly bothers the hell out of you.
