Don’t tell a Sabres fan this..

 

Eh. He got it right eventually. Sabres are on their way up.

I'm not a hockey fan, but it's absolutely baffling to me that the Bills can be this good and the Sabres can be that bad.  

 

Same reason we hired Rex Ryan. Bad advice. Unlike the Bills it took 4-5 tries to get it right.

I want to add this for the Sabres comments. They have signed the #1 or 2 UFA in the NHL multiple times. They did everything they could to put the best hockey team on the ice.

 

They just couldn't find their Beane and McDermott to build structure and a winning culture. 

Yep. They had the draft picks, but they didn't have their pick of coaches/GMs. It seems the hockey world has a dearth of coaches and GMs. There was zero on the market when the Sabres were hiring.

 

But this is a Bills Board: Go JA17.. and whatever jersey number Von Miller gets.

Billieve it or don’t but the Sabres are in place and if the Pegulas, along with KA and the HC all get on the same page and get the Sabres what they need they will be entertaining next season for sure…. But we have to add some vet talent this offseason….imho….

The Sabres have some exciting young talent talent creeping up and a couple vets already….

I knew the Bills had to do something big for the front seven and we did it. I just hope Beane swung at the right pitch….

I think it’s a helluva gamble going with a 32 year old. Admittedly, there really wasn’t a better choice I can think of. You could say Mack but I think that is very debatable and I love that we still have our picks. Lordy, Lordy, I sure hope Beane is right and we can hoist the Lombardi next year!

 

Go Bills!

It seems that way but only time will tell

 

I've been following the Sabres since they joined the NHL. You can see it taking shape.  Adams/Granato are the Sabres' Beane/McDermott. It just takes longer in the NHL because you are drafting kids.

I can tell you that I was at the game last Thursday for the return of Eichel and it was such a great game all around. Truly one of the best games I’ve been to in years. Then watching them play Toronto the way they did. Definitely feels like we’re on the cusp of something. But I’ve had this felling before and been wrong

It's going to happen. Not their fault Jack Eichel is a clown.

The ineptitude of the Sabres goes so far beyond eichel, regardless of what Jack is or isn't. It's not entirely Kim and Terry's fault either, but they were dreadful for 4 years before Jack's first game, during his time here, and have still been objectively bad in the bits of two seasons after he played his last game. Things look promising now, but they have a long way to go to prove that.

Did you predict it?  Not surprised.

 

 

At the combine the rumor was that the Bills were preparing to make a big splash........and speculation was that it was in part to get the WNY public excited with the controversial stadium funding issue coming up.
