Jauronimo Posted April 1, 2021 Posted April 1, 2021 I'm proud of our team. That was a statement game if there ever was one. Sabres put the league on notice yesterday. We suck ass but we are NOT the worst of all-time. Just tied for it. 2 Quote
BillsFan4 Posted April 1, 2021 Posted April 1, 2021 Heard on the instigators: That was the Sabres first regulation win in the month of March in THREE YEARS. Crazy! Quote

I was hoping they'd lose last night to keep that streak alive. We ran into the right team on the right night; Philly is melting down right now and I think their coach is gonna get fired. Quote
BillsFan4 Posted April 3, 2021 Posted April 3, 2021 (edited) This Vancouver Canucks outbreak looks pretty bad. They are up to 16 players, 3 coaches covid positive so far but I guess the NHL expects basically The entire team to end up testing positive for covid. best wishes for a speedy recovery for everyone involved! Their AHL team is also dealing with a covid outbreak, though not as severe. They haven’t played in 3 weeks. Edited April 3, 2021 by BillsFan4 Quote

So I think part of it is precaution. But I would hope that they are reasonably sure that a trade will happen. It wouldn’t be the best look to hold him out and then not trade him at the deadline 😂 1 Quote

He might be dealt today or tomorrow. Quote
ChevyVanMiller Posted April 6, 2021 Posted April 6, 2021 (edited) Signed to a two year entry level contract. Edited April 6, 2021 by ChevyVanMiller 1 Quote
BillsFan4 Posted April 6, 2021 Posted April 6, 2021 Nice! Glad he signed. I was wondering if he would choose to go the college UFA route. Quote

Our current pipe dream Lukkkkkononkkonen or however you spell it has been a “prospect” since Bob Sauve was playing for his middle school team. I can see the writing on that wall. Unrealistic trade hopes: Hall and Skinner for a 5th rounder. Nobody is taking the remaking 6 years of that albatross contract but one can dream. Quote

We need players not picks, as our scouting department hasn't done as any favors lately. Give me a 3rd line player and a prospect and I'll call it a day. I know some mentioned Edmonton as a suitor if so Jesse Puljujarvi and Olivier Rodrigue would make me happy. Edited April 7, 2021 by The Jokeman Quote
K-9 Posted April 7, 2021 Posted April 7, 2021 Don Granto has faced a ton of adversity and has overcome it each time with grit and determination and grace. I think he embodies the Buffalo spirit. Perhaps we’ve found our coach, after all. https://www.espn.com/nhl/story/_/id/31194727/the-human-side-buffalo-sabres-18-game-winless-streak-2021 Quote
May Day 10 Posted April 7, 2021 Posted April 7, 2021 or its a group of players trying to play their way out of here at the deadline and also for their UFA. Been fooled before. Organization still sucks. Stick with Granato and pretend everything is fine on the cheap, we will be right back here in a year. Quote
