Manito up in Wright’s Corners is THE most authentic Mexican place in WNY. Pickled condiment bar and everything.

It literally was a food truck run by a Mexican dude that got so popular he had to open a brick and mortar. Voted a top restaurant in the country this year by yelp!

and a lot of cap space, with no real bad money. They are in a better cap situation than Buffalo.

Think there's teams lining up for this contract?

My sister lived in San Diego for a decade before moving home. I would go wild on the mexican food every time I visited her. Thankfully Left Coast Taco in East Aurora has filled that San-Diego style Mexican food hole for me (they don't have the proper spicy pickled veg tho)

It’s amazing. I’ve cut back because none of it is particularly good for you, but that’s why it tastes so good. Carnitas, Adobada, Al Pastor(which does not usually have pineapple here), chili verde, posole, carne asada, fish tacos. Chicken mole was a revelation for me. It’s all so goddamn good. The tradeoff is I can’t get a Royal sub anywhere which is really painful, and it’s tough to find a place that has sub rolls like Buffalo does. I guess I’d like to try a stinger too. Those did not exist to my knowledge when I left 20 years ago

I remember a lot of burritos from ETS that I know know were total wypipo food. You can throw mighty taco in that category too. I would be embarrassed to feed a Mexican any of that. It’s worse than bringing an Italian to Olive Garden. Is ETS still open?

An underdiscussed problem you've brought up before:

https://twitter.com/JoeMa...bh6gAwEv9IPuScuGwkAg&s=19

Grit has been something talked about for what the Sabres need to take the next step but I see most of the teams that have 2 top end forwards on their roster with an elite defenseman. The Sabres need to get harder to play against but they 100% need more up front

The Sabres have Dahlin but who are those game breaking forwards? Can Thompson be that guy next year in what will be a healthier year? They have Dahlin already but they need that game breaker up front, and those guys don’t grow on trees

No so sure about that.
Gunzel, Teravienen, Noesen IF RESIGNED project at $20m alone.
Pesce, Skjei, Chatfield IF RESIGNED project at $17m.

They going to heed to do something.
Keep an eye on them.

You probably saw the article on The Athletic that compared non-plaoff teams to the typical roster configuration for recent SC winners. We can dispute the details, but the overall take away is Buffalo is nowhere near realizing that config at the top end...primarily at the F position.

If I am Kevy, I'd focus on improving on acquiring that high-end talent at F, and leave the D alone to see what Lindy can do there for another season with bringing Power, Byram, Johnson and Sammy along.

Ya, I didn't list every UFA, just the bigger tickets to make the point.
