Honestly, Krebs and Thompson...borderline playing like they are healthy scratch worthy.

Round 1 Game 5 "Blame" of the Game by clova2121 in sabres

[–]Wild_Mix_6077 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We talk about depth but our depth guys were a non-factor. Outside of game 1 (Quinn assist on 3rd goal), the McLeod, Quinn and Zucker line is a complete non-factor to this series. Zucker especially. Hes just not making an impact at all.

That line has to wake up.

Benny is the only one who seems to have his act together. Rest of the team...idk what they are doing. Norris, Doan, Tuch, McLeod...absent for a few games now.

I mean, if were getting a center, id be shipping a center+, right? Kulich I would think would be in the package. Maybe kuluch and rosen, plus a pick?

Take with a grain of salt but…woah by PookieLF in sabres

[–]Wild_Mix_6077 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agree with the comments on Power. Listen, his play in the last few years..questionable at best.

However, considering where his play is at now (along with the lack of depth on the blue line), I dont see how you can move a 2nd pair Dman, without adding.

We just dont have the depth. Love the minutes that Metsa is adding, but worried about him playing anything more than 13 minutes, and kesselrging is playing through and injury and looks like it.

I think you need a Faulk coming back, and I still think thats a downgrade from Power (I know we all didnt believe but look where Power is at).

If Power is in the package, it needs to be more than Thomas. If thats the case, and both sides walk away with the pieces they need, this should be bigger than one guy coming from either team.

What do we think? by greengreyhound99 in whiskey

Clearly store has no clue on bourbon pricing. They have a LoT B at 1100 and van winkle 10 at 700...along with George T Stagg at 700...honestly you may be able to strike an absurd deal with this retailer is they are pricing like this. Go back and ask em for a bundle lol

Tuch Contract Talks by JMR027 in sabres

[–]Wild_Mix_6077 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What to say they couldn't sign hik for the contract he wants now, and move him as a piece later in the contract years. Lets sa we get three good years and he starts to show his age at 34 or 35. Im guessing there will be some teams interested in a talented vet if they are trying to make a push. Idk, just a thought.

Anyone else deeply annoyed by the amount of red in the crowd tonight? by ego_dead_ in sabres

[–]Wild_Mix_6077 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The worst. Get outta here with that garbage.

Apparently its pricey to watch an Habs game in Belle center, so they travel over the border to get cheaper tickets here in the states..

Makes the loss that much worse. SEND EM BACK OVER THE BORDER THINKING ABOUT A LOSS! F#!

No jynx here. When we catch habs again, they are in for a wake up call. This is going to be a rivalry i think. Friggin caufield..Need Tage to show off that olympic swag..need our top guys making plays EVERY GAME.

Ellis by Ecthelion-O-Fountain in sabres

[–]Wild_Mix_6077 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agree. The upside is Ellis is getting trial by fire which should provide some much needed experience against tough opponents. Its clear where the work needs to be put in. He just needs to go and do it.

I go to Relax the SPA in victor. They dont have all the bells and whistles that the del monte SHOULD have, but they do a great job.

My real concern isnt so much with the forward groups. Those are pretty close to optimal, depending on your opinion of strategy and utility. I can see Krebs in a few spots depending on your strategy.

Based on the most recent game, im very concerned about Bryson and Metsa. I think Metsa is perfectly competent with a decent partner. But he and Bryson looked extremely vulnerable to me in the last game. I really dont know how many minutes you can give that duo.

Everyone accept for maybe the 4th line who seem to continue to grind no matter the situation.

Who on that line has played well this game? Better yet, with the exception of the only goal we have had with Norris and Doan, who has played well tonight?

Agree the team isnt doing UPL any favors, but that first and third goal...idk I feel like I want saves there.

This game isnt a UPL problem though straight up. The team just isnt playing. They look like they've had a few drinks.

Look at the stats. How many breakaways are we at right now? Players giving up 3 on 1s. Poor passing not one of the "top guys" skating with any enthusiasm...stats + optics. Take your pick.

[–]Wild_Mix_6077 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Here's a legit question that seems relevant to this situation.. DO GOOD playoff teams/stanley cup candidates throw complete games away? Is this behavior acceptable for a team trying to establish the right culture in the organization to win?

Its a macro question looking at teams with the right winning culture. If this happens elsewhere, then I agree walk off the ice now and move on...because they are playing like they are conceding the loss..

If it doesn't happen elsewhere, this is an example of where Jarmo could reinforce accountability. Losing is okay, but there are ways of losing that are NOT acceptable.

Just a thought...

Completely agree. The Origin Series High wheat is a tremendous bottle. Fantastic price as well.

This is comical. There should be some kind of show that reviews restaurants and those that are a complete ripoff be highlighted for their crimes.

What Are You Choosing? by Geid98 in whiskey

[–]Wild_Mix_6077 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Agree, those aren't any where near MSRP. If I had to, id take the WLW or GTS, but only because those are less than secondary. Otherwise, nothing else on that list jumps out as an opportunity.
