  1. It’s sad to see this. Such an undeserving fan base… Can you imagine what the Cincinnati SB parade would have been like? I bet we would’ve seen a celebration similar to what I’d expect if Buffalo won it.
  2. Yeah he didn’t really take any big hits though. The concern about the ADR surgery was how it would hold up over time and how it would react to awkward collisions and big open ice hits (etc). Anyway... he looked rusty. You saw flashes of the Eichel we know but it’s obviously going to take him some time to get back into game shape. It’s also going to take him some time to get used to the pace LV plays with/at. 2 great games on TNT yesterday back to back. did you see Reinhart’s game tying goal? What a beauty! I don’t mind rooting for Reinhart. He left the proper way. Eichel can go **** himself.
  3. No. Not at all. I am actually more interested in the NFL because the Bills are finally actual legit super bowl contenders. I have lost interest in the NHL though and am still having trouble regaining interest. Maybe if the Sabres ever start winning again...
  4. https://www.bleachernation.com/blackhawks/2022/02/14/report-blackhawks-have-received-big-offers-for-brandon-hagel-but-dont-want-to-trade-him/ REPORT: Blackhawks Have Received Big Offers for Brandon Hagel, But Don’t Want to Trade Him Hagel is tearing it up this season. He was a 6th round pick of the Sabres in 2016 under Tim Murray (he hit on a few late picks). Jason Botterill didn’t sign him and we lost his rights. Its amazing how many mistakes this franchise has made over the last 10 years. also: https://nhl.nbcsports.com/2022/02/14/jack-eichel-to-make-vegas-golden-knights-debut-wednesday-vs-colorado-avalanche/ ‘Jack Eichel to make Golden Knights debut Wednesday vs. Avalanche’ 🖕
  5. Yeah the sound mix SUCKED! I have a large home theater system (7.1.2) and it was very noticeable to me. I cranked the volume way up and it still sounded like crap. I don’t know why it was mixed to be so quiet/lacking dynamics.
  6. Really enjoyed this halftime show but I do kind of wish they would’ve went with a different song selection. Eminem, Snoop and Dre all have songs I would’ve rather heard than the ones they chose.
  7. You could literally say that every single year. Not true. I know plenty of people who can’t stand country music, including myself. It’s actually one of the only genres of music I don’t/won’t listen to.
  8. I think the Bengals could actually pull this off. Rams just don’t look the same since OBJ went out and the bengals seem to have the momentum right now. not overly impressed with McVay’s play calling either.

  10. Did anyone watch his opening press conference? 🤷‍♂️
  11. I’d be surprised if he actually walked away. I can respect wanting to spend more time with your family but he doesn’t have a family yet. His wife isn’t even pregnant afaik?
  12. I don’t know. I see a much different vibe than last year. If Dahlin is just saying nice things why wasn’t he saying this stuff last year? Or the year before? I agree on your comments about the city not being excited. Krebs was assigned to Rochester during the all star break to get games in. They recalled him yesterday. Granato is doing more with much less than his predecessors. He has a better points percentage than last year’s team with FAR less talent + 1/2 the team on the injured list. Im far from satisfied with the win/loss % but everyone knew this was a tear down year. I don’t know that any coach could win with this roster. I don’t think the answer to the Sabres problems is to change coaches. They’ve changed coaches every couple years since firing Ruff. It’s time to actually stick with a plan for once and see it through. That’s been another issue IMO. They’re constantly changing directions. You can’t keep changing the vision every 2-3 years and ever expect to build anything. This isn’t the NFL where you can turn over a roster in a season or two. I think both Adams and Granato have done enough to get the time to implement their plans. I’d like to see both get at least 3 more years. I obviously expect to see progress during that time.
  13. I feel like this is just another guy that was hired to be fired by houston. I hope I’m wrong and he gets a legitimate opportunity to succeed.
  14. Definitely a much different vibe than previous years. It doesn’t feel like we’re holding any players hostage anymore.
  15. Leaving the spot open for McDaniels to come “home” in a couple years? 😂

  17. Kromer is an Upgrade, without a doubt.
  18. Love this hire!! McDermott killed it filling his coaching vacancies.
  19. Not surprised. He knows Daboll’s system very well and everyone always calls him another coach in the room. Why not sign him to help Daniel Jones learn the system? I expect Daboll to come after more Bills players.
  20. Curious to see if Josh McCown ends up on his staff. My guess is yes.
  21. This would be such a horrible look for the NFL, especially with the Brian Flores stuff going on. It would emphasize the claim that white coaches are given opportunities that minority coaches aren’t. I don’t see how the Texans could even sell McCown as qualified for the job at all, let alone more qualified than other available candidates. Almost 40% of NFL assistant coaches are minorities, yet every year the NFL seems to find some new, totally inexperienced white candidate to promote over all of the (much more qualified) minority candidates.
  22. I also think they are on the right path. I won’t go as far as to say they’re the Sabres McDermott and Beane. But I do like Granato a lot. He seems like the right coach. He knows hockey, seems like a very good teacher and our young players actually seem to be developing. I hope both him and Kevyn Adams get time to turn this around. and this is coming from someone who was furious about the Adams hire at the time. I’ve been extremely skeptical of him. But I like what he’s done and is doing. I like that he held his ground on the Eichel trade. I like that he’s creating a top notch analytics department. Some of his draft picks are looking pretty good, as are the players he acquired in trade. Im just hoping the Pegulas don’t hit the panic button again. That Andrew Peters rumor about big changes has me uneasy. I’m hoping it’s something unrelated to people being fired. They need to stick to a damn plan for once. Like you said, there’s no quick fix for this team.
  23. Good hire for them. Now they just need to get rid of baalke.
  24. Watch our offense be even better with Dorsey and Brady... Karma’s a *****. 😂
