right...In 2 years we had 3 first round picks and 6 second round picks and we only have Risto and Reinhart. Crazy.
Botterill: "hey Bails, pack your ****, your outta here".
Touche'Bails: "Hey, Botts, you went to Michigan, right? Good school, but didn't they teach you the difference between 'your' and 'you're'?"
I'll wait with baited breath to see exactly who is coming up from Rochester to save the playoffs for the Sabres... Seriously though, I hope whoever gets called plays well and shows some real promise, regardless of any playoff impact.
Here's my thoughts and 9 of the 10 goals that Leier has scored this season with the Phantoms...

Why didn’t Leier play?
2013 draft holy facepalm. 2 firsts, 3 seconds, a 3rd and 3 fifths and we got only Risto on the roster.

Does this mean we lost the trade?
yes..throw in the towel and fire Botts..utter foolishness on his part...what could have he possbily been thinking ?Does this mean we lost the trade?
I think these quotes from Bailey (from an article on the Athletic) make it pretty clear he needed a fresh start -
Sabres enter the break with issues to address, but they're...
“I think Tim Murray might’ve seen me in a different way than Botts, and Botts a different way than Tim,” Bailey told The Athletic’s Joe Yerdon in Rochester this week. “You just have to adjust to however they see you fit within the organization. Right now that’s killing penalties, being heavier on the forecheck and playing bigger than I have been.”
“Obviously, that’s been difficult when you’re used to playing a certain way, especially here. When they want you to play a different role it’s definitely an adjustment, and that’s kind of what happened in the last few months.”
“I’m kind of in that in-between phase,” Bailey said, “transitioning from a guy who, for me, has scored goals my whole life — and maybe I do one day in the NHL and maybe I don’t — but for me, I’m playing my best hockey when I’m confident and I’m playing a role where I feel like there’s confidence in me, confidence in myself. It’s definitely tough for me to transition into the role I’m in right now.”
