We’re not perennial contenders that barely missed the playoffs We’ve had top five or 10 draft picks for a decade We’ve been out of the playoff race by January usually Last year was our closest year to making the playoffs in probably a decade

Hockey has more perennial losing franchises than any sport because it’s tough to right the losing ship in hockey Once you do it you will be successful again But it’s extremely hard to right that ship

You can’t trade for anybody When you don’t have any assets worth trading And free agents don’t wanna play on a ***** team with high taxes Vegas got Marc-André Fleury out of the get go The Sabres would kill for a goalie of that quality… We’ve had nothing since Ryan Miller left Ullmark was solid but he can’t do it alone… Again The Sabres are bad because they were good for so long and traded away pieces to remain relevant… Once those guys were gone there was never a group to come back And that starts the futility in hockey of you can’t develop and win at the same time Vegas got 26 year old man who had NHL experience… Sprinkled in with some young guys The Sabres have been playing 21 year olds and 22 year olds for a long time… With some washed up veterans and no goaltender sprinkled in The Sabres don’t need an expansion draft to be good now because we’ve been drafting at the bottom for a decade.. 10 years to right the ship! But if they got the chance to do an expansion draft tomorrow… Any competent hockey guy could build an extremely great team within the parameters

Absolutely not One of my best friends is a coach in the OHL and he called it with both Seattle and Las Vegas He said both will be playoff contending teams within a season or two… Because they get to pick from a pool of 200 grown man NHL players Not 19-year-old kids who aren’t physically ready… Get forced into playing on bad teams… And by the time they’re physically mature there on a different team Real hockey guys saw this from miles away Those expert you’re talking about Are called pundits and they get paid to take positions… pundits I doubt you talked to real one hockey scout… Because every guy in the game of hockey I know was been drooling to be the GM of Las Vegas

I called it the day after the season … This was the best case scenario of how it went down

I also noticed some snaps where he was lining up at one technique

In my humble opinion These expansion franchises which Go from brand new to Stanley Cup contenders instantly is terrible The Sabres are one of the proudest franchise in the NHL… 1970… And we’ve Had to go through ***** while expansion teams turn into the contenders overnight Every five years why not take the lowest standing team and let them do expansion… Because Any GM can build a competent team that way It’s not hard what Vegas did… Any real hockey guy could’ve built that team What’s hard is rebuilding the Sabres… Who we’re good for 15 years straight… Had no people in the pipeline because they’re always playing for now Then when the core leaves… The pipeline is bare because they were always playing for playoff contention… They buy at the deadline Then when we got bad… It was 13 years of futility… Because We had to play 20 year old kids who weren’t ready to play … And by the time they were 25 and ready…. They didn’t re sign with us and we start back at scratch Being a bottom feeder in the NHL… Is almost a continuous cycle… It’s not like football where you could break out in a year or two These expansion teams are on a unfair playing field and **** eichel

You would be surprised how razor thin the margin is between an above average starter and an elite player is in the nfl Every and I mean every single player oozes so much athleticism and talent… Talent margin in the NFL is razor thin… That’s why 30% of the league is undrafted free agents What makes the difference is how coachable a player is… do they have a good work ethic…Are they in the right scheme and fit… And do they have pieces around them to help them be better and Can they keep the consistency day to day week to week…. Consistency is key for any football players growth

Absolutely… I’m sure the East Coast does have better tap But I’ve seen what humidity can to dough so I know that’s also a factor -

Buffalo716 replied to Another Fan's topic in Off the Wall
That’s been the old wives tale but idk Seeing as most Buffalo pizzerias use straight up tapwater… which is nothing special What I think does make a difference… is the flour to water ratio in the dough and the humidity level pizza dough seems to proof better in certain conditions better than other … You can take your recipe in New York and make the pizza… Bring it down to the driest town in Arizona …. And I don’t think it will proof the same -

Unless You’re getting a Neapolitan or woodfired pizza or deep dish Technically every pizzeria in Buffalo serves buffalo style Cup and char + sweet sauce + cheese to edge = buffalo … and that is 95% of the 600 pizzerias lol a sweet house sauce + cup and char + cheese piled to the edge is buffalo pizza … whether thicker or medium crust I would classify this pizza from extra extra pizza as buffalo style Not thin crust… Cup and char… And cheese and toppings piled to the edge -

All 5 are staples.. Some of the biggest names in Buffalo And make good pie But it’s the hundreds of small mom and pop shops which really keep the pizzeria game afloat in Buffalo you can have 3-4 pizzerias within a few blocks … competition is fierce -

While I’ve had terrible pizza in New York City I’ve had great pizza… same with Detroit and most places but I’ve also had Great pizza in Buffalo… Like, Technically speaking Buffalo is the pizza capital of America…. There are more pizzerias here per capita than anywhere else in America Buffaloes a lot more than Lenova or bocce club… There are a lot of really good small mom and pop pizzerias You can get Neopolitan and brick oven in Buffalo… you can get specialties … You can get thick crust medium crust thin crust The variety in the buffalo pizza game is big -
