I doubt Lundqvist is going to miss any time as they're saying he's "day to day." If he's even remotely capable of going, he'll go.
Unless of course they're lying. Hank skated without equipment before practice, though.

The league is on notice now. It is on bitches. Flyers are totally going to score more then 2 goals in a game now.
You guys are DEFINITELY winning on thursday!
Well you'll get to continue seeing him as Ericsson is now out 2-4 weeks with a shoulder injury.:lol
There is no middle ground, either I hate them or I love them, or love them and just hate Cleary/Sammy.
So anyways, Ouellet looked great for his first NHL game, our close to NHL ready prospect pool (especially our D) is stacked!

Eaves will be waived.I like Eaves, but I'd much rather get rid of him than Tootoo.

Emerson Etem promoted to second line with Perreault and Selanne. Jakob Silfverberg dropped to fourth with Bonino and Maroon
Silf on the 4th line???

Welp, I guess we'll see how this goes.
Edit: Probably Holland getting more injured players to delay waiving/trading anyone./conspiracy

Scratch that.

Keep milking that cow Maclean, sure.... Injury.
Just admit it was a dumb descion from the beginning Macdrunk.
MacLean doesn't like something about his attitude or work ethic. Similar to what we saw with O'Brien, Butler or Filatov.
He's got the skill but not much else it seems.

Darren Helm has left practice early. No word yet if he's suffered a setback.
Hall out and I believer Eberle is out too is a huge boost for the Habs since we're down 1/3 of our team already. Excited to see Bournival get more time on a top line though, he's legit been better then some of the vets.
Yeah, he has great speed. I like him a lot.
Altogether, I think we feel pretty good. It's a new season, a new attitude all around. It's a lot more positive. I would've believed being over .500, but maybe not 8-1.

If this was Carlyle then it would feel like a huge demotion. Under Bruce, it's not as bad as it sounds.Silf on the 4th line???

You should be, I would fell the same the other way around if the roles were reversed you ghetto monger Detroit fan.
The avs have been bad versus Detroit for years, it is almost like a mental block they cannot get over. Now we will hardly play you so *shrugs*.

I have a love/hate relationship sometimes with the frequency in which Boudreau changes lines. It seems to work great but I loved the chemistry Silfverburg has with Perrault/Selanne. We'll see how this line does with Etem's extra speed but I have a feeling it'll be reverted by the end of the game if nothing is being produced.

But why is he demoted? I thought he was playing well for you guys.

It's not that the Avs are bad against us, it's just that Franzen turns into God when he plays you, and then disappears playing against the rest of the teams in the league.

It's not a demotion like Heretic said. It's just the system Bruce employs. A 4 Line game. All lines average around the same TOI, with the first line getting the most.
dat scratch line. He is still injured.
I also doubt Vinny will play on Thursday.

Gotta catch 'em all, dude.
I've stayed out of this thread all season. I've been trying to keep my mouth shut, because the Sabres are god awful. But I need to vent. If you aren't a Sabres fan, feel free to ignore this. Anyway, this is the season that broke me. I'm done.
Sabres-GAF:
We all saw it coming. We really did. It was more than just writing on the walls. They didn't hide it. They told us to prepare for suffering. They told us to prepare for heartbreak. We all knew this season was going to be bad. They pretty much came out and said they're tanking for the number one pick in the draft. The Pittsburgh-Crosby model, if you will.
But to pretend that we're better than we are? For Ted Black to say that firing Darcy, who is now a proven failure, would be a panicked maneuver? Please. Our record points to the reality of the situation. And the reality is we're terrible.
They've spent the whole season now framing this as the BLUEPRINT year. They're going so far with the "rebuild" mentality that the team has been branded with it. So fine. We're supposed to be building something new as a franchise. We're supposed to be striving toward something fresh, strong, and eventually, a championship.
That's respectable. That's how it should be done. I can get behind that.
So why, then, is the same person who built the last several failed teams in charge of building yet again? If someone built a bridge that collapsed, you wouldn't hire them to build the bridge to replace it. They have a proven track record. What they do doesn't work.
It's been 15 years of collapsed bridges in Buffalo. And we're letting him build another one.
If the Sabres really want to rebuild, if Terry Pegula wants this team to compete for championships, if they want to stop the failure and actually create a winning team, they need to clear out the rotten wood, demolish the foundation and start fresh. Darcy being here is the antithesis of that idea. He is the one remaining constant in 15 years of regimes that quite frankly couldn't get the job done. And we're doing it again this year.
I guess those who still go to the games and support this team are free to. They're free to enjoy the snake oil. I won't be giving them another dime until Darcy is gone.

"Henrik Sedin told the NY Post that one difference between John Tortorella and Alain Vigneault is that Tortorella is in the locker room more after Vigneault let the players manage things. Sedin said that Tortorella is in the locker room after every period telling players how they played, what they did well and what they can do better. Sedin said, thats how you want it to be."
Hmm.
Hmm.
AV is a douche and a half, it's no wonder the Rangers aren't responding to his "leadership" well after having Torts in there. I'm sure Torts can be incredibly overbearing too, he'll have to find a medium there."Henrik Sedin told the NY Post that one difference between John Tortorella and Alain Vigneault is that Tortorella is in the locker room more after Vigneault let the players manage things.

Ash catch'em all bitch!
Besides not like they're hard to catch, I just go along and when something new pops up I just catch it and move on.

Franzen always seems to get at least one, and I heard he has three hat tricks against them so I totally agree.
Helm now has a groin issue and will miss Saturday's game. He's getting an MRI to determine if there's a tear. This guy is never gonna play again.fuuuuuuuuuuuuuu

Lol the fuck are you talking about Kernal, right now you are drinking this mgt kool aid too much. Your trying to justify all of their dumb shit decions by making shit up.
The fuck? The guy has actually proved to play in this league more so than Filatov Butler and all those cunts put together.
They just thought they coyld get something of value for Dacosta if he played well and thats it.
Sabres-GAF:
It feels unanimous that anyone still supporting the team also supports firing Regier at this point.
The worst part about this whole ordeal is the season's only 3 weeks old. Suffering, indeed.

I think that the thing with Torts is that, no matter what, eventually, he overstays his welcome. What we are hearing out of Van now is similar to what we heard/saw after he took over for Tom Renney.

At this point I feel like the Bills will have more wins on the season than the Sabres.
One of you nerds want to hook me up with a ditto? I want to ev train some shit stompers to roll the E4
You don't need to do any of that to beat the E4... Also there are EV-reducing berries, so you don't have to breed and re-level.

When Torts came to the Rangers, they really had nothing except Henrik, Staal, and a couple of prospects. Vancouver is certainly further along when Torts took over than the Rangers were at that point, so maybe they are able to catch him with the right timing.
Oh I know. I want to breed some abilities into some Pokemon.You don't need to do any of that to beat the E4... Also there are EV-reducing berries, so you don't have to breed and re-level.

LOL what fucking Kool Aid? I'm going to trust the guy with the Jack Adams Trophy knows what he is doing instead of listening to dumbfucks on HFboards. Jim O'Brien proved he could play in this league too and now he's a 3rd line centre in Bingo getting an NHL salary.
Who gives a shit what Zib did last season? If you're a prospect, you earn your fucking roster spot based on what you do in training camp not what you did last year. The last thing they need is the best prospect in our system to stop working hard and improving because he had a good half season. He's only 20 he still has a long way to go.
You sound like the people who wanted Lehner as the #1 after his first couple of NHL games.
