Win for Rick
Quinn looked confident. Hope he's turned the corner.My favorite part of the game: Quinn's game is finally coming around.
Or he was playing for the scouts.
Either way, good showing.

Congrats on a nice win and I hope this starts a good run for you guys!
Merry Christmas!
Did I say trade someone? I'm saying the opposite, why waste Dahlin, Thompson and Tuch's prime time for nothing. I'm saying the opposite, improve the roster with the same players so that Dahlin, Thompson and Tuch can make the playoffs. I'm here on this board advocating for trades for players like Weegar and Pettersson, why would I trade Thompson.Selling off late-20-something players for prospects is the path to staying in this same rut. They need more good players in that 26-32 range, not less.

I've harped about wanting to see more from Dahlin, and still do. He has the talent to be a perennial Norris candidate.Wow, captain return.
But Adams still needs to be fired; quite often, by the way, people are fired after win.
Unfortunately, no one is immune from injuries.I've harped about wanting to see more from Dahlin, and still do. He has the talent to be a perennial Norris candidate.
But the Sabres are a different team with him in the lineup. Absolutely stellar game last night. More of that please.
We keep forgetting Power just turned 22, and how long it takes most d-men to mature in this league.Power trying to get traded home to Toronto lol

That said, I want way more from him in the d-zone. He doesn't have to be Pronger. Just stay between your man and the net, and use that big frame. Tie up sticks. This is d-man play 101. Should be second nature to him by now. Coach him up.
He needs to have a willingness to do that tough things to win and right now he doesn’t look like he has “it” in him.All of those defensive zone things are not things that he does. He didn’t do that well in Chicago or in Michigan and certainly not in Buffalo. It feels like they need an assistant coach who can get in his ear, gain his confidence, and produce results. But everything that’s lacking in his game now is the same stuff that’s been lacking since before he was drafted.
Good reminder and keeping it civil. Merry Christmas!We keep forgetting Power just turned 22, and how long it takes most d-men to mature in this league.

let's do as you suggest , they've mainly played well enough. aside from 3 egregious embatassmentsSo now we get a 13-game lossless streak, right?
Let's hope a young dog can soon learn tricks he should have mastered already.All of those defensive zone things are not things that he does.
