Rat, you have to be loving your team...they are fin to watch...maybe Maurice was correct in insisting the team play the "right" way ... a better overall game with attention to detail.
Good luck to the boys!
Go Sam!!

Yes they are fun to watch, and definitely more suited to tightly played games. They worked on being more defensive and their offense struggled (injuries and cap problems, too) They were pretty much done until (it seemed that) Maurice let them run a bit more around New Year’s, and they made up all the lost ground. They were on a tear to end the season, but the first round vs Bs was whole new level of intensity and forechecking. They are relentless right now. But, they must keep game 5v5 as much as possible. If they can’t stay out of the penalty box, they will eventually get roasted by the leafs power play.

The analytics stuff was cool, I liked that he repeatedly talked about the analytics department and how they're diversifying data sets to not just include league wide or publicly distributed data. Also, he confirmed he expects the team to get younger again next year, so guys like Kulich are going to have a real chance of making the team at least. It wasn't ground breaking, but cool tidbits.

So they'll still have that excuse to fall back on if things go sideways.

You think they're going to bring back their (arguably) most well respected veteran and Captain as a 13rd forward who would start the season on the bench?
- kingcong39


Not first game, but second, yes. I think he would be promised around 20 games unless injuries forced him in. He's cooked and the C is going to transfer if Donny has any cahones.

Trade olo, don’t RE-sign okposo. That would be what I would do. But I didn’t even stay at a holiday inn last night.
- IndianaSabresFan


I'm with you, Okposo should retire IMO. Stick around as a player coach in the stands if anything.

I think we can all agree with that point about both Okposo / olofsson

but do they really use them in players they bring in?


I would love to see brysons numbers vs pilut or clague

- homiedclown


I think they're willing to push it, but even Bryson got the hook eventually.

There's two spots...Girgs...Jost. There are guys that could be dropped if the kids earn it. To Homie and Lun's points, it does seem to fluctuate somewhat to whether or not they actually do it.

That big Russian Simashev really moved up and Pellikka dropped quite a bit.
- Buff36


Don't want anything to do with Pellikka, he may be another Bryson type

Wheeler has Reinbacher around 7 or 8,
Pronman at 15.
Will be interesting to see others and the last versions coming in June.

Lots of people who pay $ to go see the Sabres play ( season ticket holders) respect girgensons game.
Blue collar , lunch pail, hard worker.

Guy that watches the 1st period or so in florida, while rooting for the Lightning, doesnt like girgensons.

Ya ya ya STH, like it means you are more knowledgeable or smarter or pay attention more.
While you are giving it up with your kids hockey team parents, the game proceeds..then you have to watch the replay on the Jumbotron to figure out what just happened lol.
You need to get an updated Fantasy Draft magazine, the one you got from 2015 is old buddy.!

Defensively he requires a lot of work.

You drunk?

This is more word salad then usual?

Yes, season ticket holders I know, like zem girgensons.? Maybe just the people I know, but there is a general respect for him as a try hard buffalo guy.

That is something you continue to completely whiff on...

You somehow expect donnie to play matt savoie or zem girgensons next season... not happening pal...
