Siemens first and only NHL goal was a great moment though. Plugged up bloody nose from a fight, and hits the empty net from his own zone, when that wasn't so common to try.
Team was so pumped for him because they new he was a journeyman that was probably on his last shot at the NHL. Great example of sports camaraderie.

The Sabres are quite literally the NHL's rendition of "it can always get worse". Lol.

At some point, you have to think the Hockey Gods will have sympathy for that fan base.

Is this a record? Must be close at least haha.
No way someone score more own goals in a game?!

Looked like he was going to be out for months, too. 6 weeks is pretty good, all things considered

I think they will. The Hockey Gods will give them a generational player in the draft in the 5th round....
...and Kevyn Adams will trade him for future considerations a year later.

6 weeks for a torn meniscus doesn't seem like a lot of time. Obviously good news for him, all things considered.

Few fanbases have been that loyal, and even fewer have been hosed over worse by a successive string of shitty owners.
Rigas bankrupted the franchise to support his lavish lifestyle, Golisano introduced the Buffaslug and instituted an idiotic policy that cost them their two best centers at the time, and Pegula has been horribly haphazard and meddlesome--about the only thing he's done right is get the uniforms back to where they belong.
Friedman kinda went over it on a recent pod and just went down the exhaustive list of star players who left Buffalo have done since they exited. O'Reilly, Eichel, Montour, Reinhart, and so on, it's a whole lot of Cups and other hardware/accolades. Why is the culture just so insanely broken in upstate New York!? Seems to me the problem starts at the top, and the only way around that is to either hope he sells to someone who doesn't suck, or a Zito-like personality takes over and puts the owner in his place.
Adams does deserve some credit though--Botterill got shitcanned because he refused to lay off his employees, Adams did so but then convinced Pegula to slowly bring them back, so he gets props for managing up...it was managing down where he appears to have gotten in trouble.
God that sucks. Dude's a stellar talent but he ain't gettin' any luck with injuries of late.

That’s almost exactly how I tore my meniscus the 2nd time. Basically took a weird step running around playing kick ball and a complete tear.
They’re just going in and cleaning up the tear. Would be curious if a repair is in the cards anytime soon though, that’s a way longer recovery. So not sure he’d want to do that over the summer or just push that back as far as he can.
