  1. Sal's point was you can't just promise a ring anymore and get people to take less in New England. He was using Judon's "recruiting is hard" tweet as the example.
  2. Nice snark in this tweet. I'm sure it was funnier before the game.
  3. And yet the Sabres are better now. Just goes to show it's not just talent. It's also chemistry. Reinhart I wish we could have kept but he had enough. Eichel had revealed himself to not be a player to build a team around. Just look at Vegas free falling out of the playoffs since he arrived. As for crowd noise, it's actually been better with fewer people. Seems like the real hockey fans are still going and they appreciate what they are seeing. An engaged 5K are noisier than a bored 19K.
  4. Needy tool. Attention w***e.
  5. Yes Beating the Loafs never gets old.
  6. The Gronk signing win be announced with the stadium deal.
  7. The Eichels have a typical middle class lifestyle. You don't have to be rich to be a Masshole.
  8. He didn't come from money. North Chelmsford, MA is a working class suburb of Lowell, about 25 miles from Boston. His head got big because he was always an exceptional player at every level. The Golden Child. Until he arrived in Buffalo he never played on a bad team. Never had to overcome anything.
  9. We're not leaving until someone's head is on a pike.
  10. Did anyone hear something about Josh Allen not wanting to tv ads with Eichel? I'm catching bits and pieces of reactions from people on Twitter but not the actual story
  11. Do you not know about McDavid in EDM? Not that different?
  12. There is nothing special about Gillette Stadium except the wide concourses.
  13. I have to wonder how last night will affect the Golden Knights who are in danger of falling out of the playoffs. Jack is supposed to be that final piece to put them over the top. Now they're in a slump and hangdog Jack shows up? How is that going to play in the locker room?
  14. Not lion's share but some of it. Sabres screwed up a lot. Mistake #1 might have been expecting Jack Eichel to do what Josh Allen did for the Bills. Jack's true nature was on display in that post game. He doesn't have the character to lift a team. I always said the difference between Eichel and Allen is one guy was doubted his entire life and had to fight for every inch of success. The other guy was the golden child. Treated special. Always on elite teams. And when Jack ended up in a less than ideal situation he didn't know what to do. He sulked. And that sulking affected the locker room and it became a vicious cycle. Not everyone is born to lead. And I'm not absolving the Sabres. They kept hiring coaches and managers who were married to systems. The difference now is a coach like Don Granato looks at what players do well and puts them where they can do their best. But that game, that win, how it happened and what Jack Eichel said, was what the Sabres needed to turn the page on the last ten years.
  15. He asked to leave after year 2. But the rest is spot on.
  16. I hope Jack got a good look at this Sabres team. He never saw one that tight when he played here. Wonder why? Best win of the year. And to have the two guys from VGK scoring, the Tuch goal off an Eichel turnover, made it all the more sweet. I'm glad they booed him. Great seeing Sabres fans standing up for their team.
  17. Weird huh? I'm more anxious being considered a favorite.
  18. I was under the impression you could hit .08 with one pint of a good IPA.
  19. Yeah, I should read the rest of the forum before I post, huh?
  20. What's Aaron Rodgers gonna do now?
  21. I grew up in Buffalo, not Plattsburgh.
  22. Every game will be televised. It's not just TV programming for football fans. It's another thing to bet on.
