    Remember 2 Years Ago???

    Through November we were 17-9-2

    BUT, we were below .500 a few times by as much as 3 games,

    not to mention the 10-4 Loss to Ottawa...

    and we got it together and ended up 52- 24 -6


    so quit your whining

    Two years ago? I seem to remember that team having Chris Drury, Danny Briere, Jay McKee, JP Dumont, Mike Grier and Taylor Pyatt.

    I'm so bitter at this front office. I stuck up for them throughout the last two offseasons, and this is how I end up being repaid. This team ****ing sucks. I hope they prove me wrong.

      that was a team on the way up. After the off-season, this is a team on the way down.

          remember the ottawa team last year that couldn't win a game early last year, and every said it was because they lost chara? Not saying the sabres have it in them but you never know. Its a long season.

            Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor?

              The team is still 3rd youngest in the NHL.

                Ottawa lost Chara, Havlat and Smolinski, yes, but they still added Preissing and Corvo to fill Chara's shoes and committed themselves to becoming a tighter team defensively. It worked like a charm, especially considering they still had all that offensive firepower to complement the cohesive defense.

                Last I checked, the Sabres don't have Anton Volchenkov or Chris Phillips on the back end, and they don't have the Spezza line, either.

                  and? Many of those youngsters already made two deep playoff runs with the Sabres- how much better do you think they're going to get?

                      Well then maybe lindy should follow that model, because last i checked Preissing and Corvo are average defensemen. Maybe we need to focus on the defense. Bottomline Ottawa struggled early and pulled themselves together, i don't see why the sabres can do the same thing.

                        Talent. Last year's Ottawa team was much better all-around than this season's Sabres.

                          They still lost the Cup-- to a team (Anaheim) that had a longer point streak to start the season than Buffalo did.
