First Sabres tattoo

wanted some ink that represented my love for the Sabres but also was subtle and not like an obvious hockey tattoo (ie just a logo). also thought the theme of the lyric went well with the long suffering fandom, finally got a design I was happy with and pulled the trigger! let me know what you think!

Roster build

Happy 4th fellow Sabres fans! May your grills be hot and beers cold.

Anyway, discussion for the holiday weekend: Are the Sabres built for the regular season? I think the team has the speed and tenacity to run with Montreal and to give the Hurricanes a solid push in the post-season.

But first we have to get through regular season games against the Panthers (Bennett, two Tkachuks, Gudas, Hathaway, Marchand) and TBL (Kucherov, Hagel, Sabourin, Cernak, etc).

Who’s our toughest guy? Carrick? The d-man we got from Chicago is big but not really a fighter. I’m a little concerned that Jarmo didn’t do enough to make sure we don’t get cheap-shotted into submission.

Thoughts?

Every time I think about us signing Benson before people could offer sheet him, and pull this Philly horseshit.

Let's get Lucic out of here

We can do it with enough phone calls and emails.

Milan's wife refused to testify so her 911 call wasn't admissible. Milan went on to the player assistance program immediately. The speculation has always been he agreed to go to rehab if she shut up.

Suggestion complaint

"As a longtime fan, I'm extremely disappointed that the Sabres chose to hire Milan Lucic. Regardless of the legal outcome of his case, bringing someone with a history of domestic violence allegations into the organization sends the wrong message to fans and the community. I respectfully ask the Sabres to reconsider this decision and terminate his employment."

Carlson Offer Sheet

Danny Briere has some set of balls. Id love Jarmo to offer sheet Cutter now just to put extra pressure on the Ducks. If they match they only have 17 million to resign Cutter and Mintyukov

[OC] Sabres' franchise historical performance relative to .500

Here is your franchise's cumulative record relative to .500 (equal wins and losses) throughout their entire history.

I will be making one such graph for each team. The complete album can be seen here.

Our offersheet dilemma

So lets be real, I know we've struggled to get him re-signed. Todays events are making me more nervous to ask but, I think we need to consider the obivous: anyone else nervous that Sabretooth might get an offer sheet?

What's our highest AAV you would be willing to match? Any hope we can get Krebs to fill in in the suit from time to time if all goes south and we lose him?

[Patrick Moran] FWIW, I've been told by someone I'd consider familiar with the situation that there's a "real chance" Pat Kane ends up with the Sabres. Put it this way---unlike previous Kane to Buffalo rumor cycle years, this time if it doesn't happen it won't be because Kane isn't interested

Daxon Rudolph's nickname should be Da-Rud and his goal song should be Sandstorm. Thank you for attending my shitpost.

UPL

Assuming we don’t mortgage the future to trade for Hellebuyck (which I really hope we do not), do you guys think UPL could make a big jump this year? So much of it seems mental for him and I’m hoping the experience in the playoffs this year gives him something to build on. Curious for others takes

Question about draft/prospects

So one area I still feel woefully uninformed about is how the draft and prospects process works.

I understand vaguely that some guys remain at their schools, European teams, or other misc I am probably missing but how is that decided? Is it based on commitment/contract? And how is it determined when they come over to the team? Is it when or if they sign a contract once the FO determines they’re ready? And is it always the Amerks, then the Sabres? How long to draft picks get before they’re waived(?) or not picked up or whatever?

For context I have only been a hockey fan for about 12 years in a state that has next to 0 other fans, and no family legacy of hockey fandom to speak of. I am an upstate transplant so I have been Sabres the whole ride, but it’s one of my big blind spots.

I don’t know, I feel like a moron and I am worried I am going to get eaten alive but I really honestly can’t figure it out and just don’t understand the timelines and process.

Please don’t hurt me…

Can we all buy the Swannie House?

Connor Hellebuyck this. Patrick Kane that.

It’s time we get serious as a fanbase and bring back the bar that has held us the during the blue, and cheered with us in the gold.

I’m aware the owner unfortunately passed, but does anyone know of any effort or possibility of this cornerstone watering hole returning? Pipe dream? Please tell me otherwise.
