Its hilarious debating about how successful the trade and free agent built team going to cup finals is with the tank and draft at the top until it might work guy

Whiner

Where is Alex lyon now? Where did he end up in the playoffs?

Remember when our GM sat on 5 career years and didn't get them any help when they desperately needed just a little bit?

He was in the ahl with Grand Rapids

You mean Edmonton ? Or Colorado ? Or Chicago ? Or Pittsburgh ?

Ffs how many top 5 picks are playing tomorrow ?

Funny how I heard for years tanking was the issue the Sabres were in this boat and now multiple players picked in the top 5 of a draft one way or the other are going to get their name on a cup again this year

The context around this apparent nugget of yours was explained to you the last time you said this. I guess you weren’t paying attention
- Ratsreign

What context ?

Did Alex Lyons not go on a 9-4-2 run and the Panthers make the playoffs by one (frank)ing point or did he not ?

Or to Philly Sammy savie krebs and a 2nd for sleeler Hathaway and frost or Coates?
- Rsh

No

My favourite part is when he rode pine last year so Alex Lyon could go 9-4-2 down the stretch just so Florida could make the playoffs.

Yeah, he came in was Bob came down with the flu. He went on the (frank)ing heater of his life...Maurice isn’t really (frank)ing superstitious, but he ran with the hot goalie until he came back down to (frank)ing Earth. Then Bob, the (frank)ing number one all along, came back in and went on an even better (frank)ing run.

or both

Zito gives Spencer Knight a 3 year $13M dollar deal. Awesome vote of confidence to his $10M goaltender.

Knight and Bob split starts till nearly December until Knight goes to rehab as Bob struggles out of the gates.

Bob figures it out come December for a couple weeks then gets a LBI and Lyon steps in and gets a few starts prior to the all-star break in relief.

Bob comes back goes 12-8 over his next 20 starts and goes on the shelf with the illness while the Panthers are practically cooked after a 4 game losing streak.

Lyon comes out of nowhere and leads the Panthers to a 6-1-1 finish.

Lyon had saved 7.5 goals above expected in 15 games.

There is no Bob redemption tour without that linsanity run. poop Maurice might not even have a job today if it weren’t for that guy.

Imagine going from Preosdents trophy winner to not even making the dance ? That mofo saved the whole franchise lol

They may win a cup now, but wow did the Sabres hit a home run as they are about to go on a decade long run of greatness.

Just have patience. It'll happen.

Bull pucky.

Once we got eichel and Reinhardt we were supposed to be dominant playoff warriors for a decade plus. Still waiting.

same was said when we got gringo and girgens

same was said when myers was going to win multiple norris trophies

same was said when we drafted zads and risto

same was said when get got 3 centers in the first round a few years ago

ryan miller was suppose to be the next hasek

if lehner was more concerned saving a shootout shot than grabbing snakes when he got home perhaps the curse would have been long over


Lindy is the next Scotty Bowman, oh wait Bowman won everywhere but Buffalo

Exactly. We wait for ever for the “next great Sabre” and then we get Risto or Zemgus or Zadorov gets drunk and sleeps in or the 5’5 guy who won the Hobey Baker or we trade someone to Montreal like Paul Byron and he is a stand out player when he couldn’t get ice time here.

Something stinks in Buffalo and it aint the Corn Pops factory.

What ever happened to Spencer Knight. He went to rehab and then disappeared.

watching these playoffs prove that despite many thinking the sabres are close to 8th in the east they are nowhere near icing a team to compete for a cup

ruff may get them the 7th or 8th seed but it's up to adams to get them a team to compete for the cup

damn owner is too cheap to fire donnie's assistant coaches, which may be why ruff had a take a few days to decide if he wanted to coach for this owner, again

Ya it’s the owner who is appointing Ruff’s assistants 🤦‍♂️. So dubious it’s not even funny.

4 players. 2 are not with the team anymore.

It’s Reinhart.

We would have, had Eichel not been the problem his entire career in Buffalo. Should have never been drafted by Buffalo. Should’ve just gone Marner.
