Krebs has really earned a job for me.

I like NAK back with Lafferty and Beck. No way do you mess with line 1 or 3 right now.

Unfortunately, Im sure the numbers game will force Kulich down to the AHL. Which should set up a steady rotation of Benson and Quinn going in and out of the lineup on a Krebs and Cozens line.

I don't think this game was that different from a couple of our losses this year. A few differences:
- Goaltending was elite instead of bad.
- We hit 2 posts instead of 4 (and 1 eventually went in anyway).
- PK showed up.

3-4-1 and not in last in the division is a step. They could use some stretches of winning 2-in-3 repeatedly, get some momentum and keep us hating ourselves for another month or two. :laugh:
they will adjust to the Heisenberg aeffect as the target on their backs that really happened after the Columbus blu Jckts blow out , a couple years ago . gets more comfortable The bills seem the thrive under that spotlight

that month of dominant play ÷ gave us too much confidence and now , since we are healthy and have context, we've added hitting, group and defensive P
play backed up a teamwide VICIOUS AND IMMEDIATE RESPOSIBILITY. The team is looking like we all witnessed , understood and solved some of what got repeatedly derailed .

Our experienced but emotionally growing players and staff haves embraced ruff at the Helm facing some harsh criticism of each other's game and not only accepted it but each has changed small and large areas of their game good to see and amazing in some

they have realized they must bring the LA and Fla effort now the league knows they don't suck

hopefully

The first two periods reminded me of the Kings game in many ways.
You are so correct didn't see today other than highlights or delay but wow that LA GAME and impressively followed by Fla , may possibly be the restart back the beautiful tough real sabres Hockey we grew up expecting in the 70s and continued w glimpses from bowman to muckler that Ruff perfected in 98 99 and 06 and 07 before the drury brierre gutting.

great to see

Krebs as 2C when NAK returns
Just put NAK with Cozens and Kulich. Sit Quinn.

Maybe his energy and forechecking will help. Just don't want to see Quinn taking it into the zone and losing the puck every time.

(I'm half joking)

The bills have been one of the most winning teams in the league and have excelled in close games. Not winning a Super Bowl isn’t choking
that should be a Sabres banner night....neither of us won jack shit but sometimes one of us tries...usually at alternating times. So in a sense we support eachother and the fanbase can continue to drink the Kool-aid lol.

not this year and love the fans giving bass an ovation over and over as a knowledgeable f u to nfl b.s. hope he shakes it off but Josh a crew and our room second half a have taken on all comers aside from the balt debacle and like the recent I upgrade they aren't who they are yet

we've had a target that make coordinators careers and the team has stepped up for years

jazz on d and I hopefully eliminates some nfl meddling and getting young hungry and humble help w the rest

Glad to see the GBU thread back!

G
Literally everyone..
UPL looked like the goalie we saw last season
Zucker-McLoud-Greenway line was and still remains to be f***ing awesome!
Krebs goal was sick! Glad to see him cash in.
Power was a stud. Loved his outlet pass to Zucker on the McLoud goal
PK was great

B
Still 0 for on the PP
The penalties against seemed pretty soft

U
Nothing

I am curious to know what Lindy does when NAK and Benson come back.. I wouldn't mind sitting Quinn and move Krebs up the the second line and move Cozens to the wing?

Peterka-Thompson-Tuch
Benson-Krebs-Cozens
Zucker-McLoud-Greenway
Malenstyn-Laffery-NAK
