Bills look to be able to sustain being a winning team but the Sabres are not even close. Watching NHL playoffs, Sabres have a long way to go

If Dahlin is as good as everyone says he is, they should absolutely be competing for a playoff spot. Reinhart was finally finding his game at the end of last season. Eichel will be a top 10 scorer in the league. Still need a goalie though

A great goalie can mask many other deficiencies on the ice.

Right, I think forwards should be ok...defense and goaltending need improvement. Risto back to form would be very helpful

Every team looks so much faster and better in the playoffs..just can't compare regular Sabres to playoff Any Team..Sabres still sucked this year though!!!

The Sabres are in such disarray that every team who plays them EXPECT 2 points. We’re a long way away there and I think the Bills tumble back to 6-10ish. Simply not enough talent to compete.

I think you can add Mittelstadt to the list. The kid plays the last six games of the season and has 5 points. You also have Guhle that should be ready to go full time next year. Adding him and Dahlin could shore up the Blue line for years. This team is close, really close.

I disagree on the Bills...I think the defense will be much better this year.....obviously QB play is key but McCoy, Clay, Benjamin....there is still some talent on offense and we should get better QB play than Taylor

Sabres not as far as everyone thinks..wont go into detail here..but I think 2 or 3 moves cleanses this team and gets the Sabres playing the "housley" system

After we lost Dareus, we couldn’t have gotten much worse. The fortuitous T/Os by the Secondary masked that. Milano had a fine start to his career and hopefully will grow. But we didn’t address our woeful pass rush, IMO. The few stars we have left on offense will be negated by suspect at best OL play, I fear.

I think they absolutely addressed the pash rush. Trent Murphy on the outside, Star and Horrible Harry clogging the middle and pushing the pocket back..all will have a positive effect I believe!

Yep.  Can't muster it up.  Kept down for so long... Hard not to be. Always on the leash, keeps people doubtful and cynical.  But the Leagues know they don't have to build a fan base in BFLo. They then can give handouts to other teams that might lose them some $$$$$.  It's how the world works now. They got us in the bank.

 

BFLo really needs to get out of sports business and move on... Nothing but being strung along as League chumps.

 

I am shocked the Sabres won lottery.  Probably the ball that should have dropped was the Blackhawks... Somebody probably got fired for that eff up.  18.5% chance?  You gotta be kidding... Carolina 3% and they move up big time...Habs... Other 2/3rds of plan worked.

 

And you wonder why a pissed of blue collar base votes for the amoral of the world.

 

Oh well... Count me into the Debbie Downer plugging away crowd.  ONLY with things that don't matter in life though: Sports. :P

If you feel this way you could excuse yourself from the forums.

 

I mean you want Buffalo out of the sports business all together than why waste everyones time here who do not share that thought. I don't care how pathetic Buffalo sports is or gets I am true blue till death

 

The world is already negative enough... and yes I feel the pain, but if you have already given up all together don't be th eperson that has ot drag everyobody down with them

 

please, and thank you

So you automatically assume the best for the Sabres #1 pick but assume the worst for the Bills #7 pick. Why the double standard?
