I am looking forward to this game tonight.They were better team agaisnt Rangers..but forget preseason expectations this is a good Canadians club, one that really needs to be considered along with the Sabres as a potential wildcard team. Lets Go Buffalo!!! That's a heck of a skating team. They got younger and with their fresh legs they have shown that they can fly down the ice. Sometimes changing players for the sake of changing players you can refresh and invigorate a stale team. That's what the Sabres and Montreal did this offseason. P.S. I'm not proclaiming that Scandella is a special player because he certainly is not. However, that doesn't mean that he is dreadful. He's a useful defender who so far works well with Bogo. You work with what you got and put the player in the right situation. Nothing more and nothing less. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lets Go Buffalo!!! Yeah, finally they are at the very least, watchable this season. Last 3-4 seasons I couldn't watch more than a period of any game. Still have a long way to go. I watched some of the pens caps last night (only early game on), and when you see two pretty decent teams play for a while you can see how the Sabres are still lacking, but definitely much improved. 33 minutes ago, OldTimeAFLGuy said: What's next for Joel Quenneville?

But Quenneville might be better with all the young players that need to develop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did not think Pommers would keep up, for sure(hopefully Pommer fans got that) And I would still trade Housley for Quenneville!!!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
