believe It or not, the sabres improved this season

[JATMtheJATM]

They have two more points and one more win then the 13-14 season. With 2 games left. Marked improvement? Fluke? no where to go but up?

Nolan has the team playing good hockey. Imagine if they can keep this intensity and level of play into next year with a better roster. Maybe Nolan isn't so bad afterall. Just one more loss is all I ask.

I'll believe it when Bill Polian endorses Nolan as a COTY candidate, and not a minute before.

Time for a coaching clean sweep.

Irbe has really impressed me as a goalie coach. He made respectable goalies out of some average to bad goalies.

ive never been against nolan, just believe if you have the option to bring in a better coach, you do that. but its hard to deny he has the team playing well.

Two more points this year and two more points next year will still mean dead last place for 3 straight years.

52 points last year and 54 points this year when you take the wins only into consideration (no extra loser point in the not that old days) makes these two years the worst two consecutive years in NHL history.

Congratulations in your 45th year!

That is what the Sabres need to do -- climb a mountain to get out of what they currently are.

The pretend potential talent is not on their AHL team which is also crap.

Just selling hope over reality is what the homers are doing.

I don't see the hope springs eternal in the system either.

Then again you also don't have that Buffalo sense of entitlement either -- "We have supported a losing team for so long we deserve McDavid"

I suppose you and spiked should take it up with the outlets and scouts that evaluate those sort of things. Plenty of reasons to be excited for the sabres in the future.

Maybe Boston will win the lotto. They will certainly think they're deserving.

The Hockey News has the Sabres ranked 4th overall in prospects.. And the Hockey News doesn't include Risto or Zad in that list as they are now full time regulars in the NHl and not considred "prospects" anymore

I think they'll drop after moving lemuiex and Armia on hockey's future as well.
