Staal is close to returning.

Carolina will be dismantled at the trade deadline or before, Buffalo is not the only team trying not to score on purpose.
As a Buffalo fan, You should hope the nhl record breaking lack of goal scoring going back to last season is indeed on purpose.
If you think they will magically turn this around with another draft class you're strait buggin.
On the bright side, The Rangers Duclair (3rd rounder and only 19 years old) has more points (5 points in 7 games) than the 2nd overall draft pick.
Including a game tying goal late in the 3rd period on Monday.
Goes to show you how fickle the draft is.
Which one of you fools still think this turn around will be less than 5 years?
Outside of that girgisons kid the Sabres youth has been well below average at best.
who exactly is the youth you speak of?Originally Posted by Downinfloflo
also, comparing draft picks at this stage of the game is about as dishonest of an argument as possible.
were talking about kids for Christ's sake. I didn't start really figuring the game out till I was 16 or 17... and I still knew squat.
as far as Rinehart is concerned... put a top end talent like a McDavid or Eichel on his wing and what we drafted him for (passing) will come to bear.
The Sabres young talent and prospects are ranked #1 by a number of places, including ESPN and hockey futures.
You are wrong.

Wasn't that also true of the Oilers for many recent years?
Is/was the Sabres management just so much more competent than the Oilers?
Jam always says that this Sabre prospect projects out to blank or that prospect projects to blank.
Perhaps the Sabres should change their name to the Buffalo Projects?
No, the oilers weren't number 1 in prospect class rankings.
Bingo.
You don't draft a guy 2nd overall for passing, If you do you're an idiot.
Honest question, What year does this mess of a team finally become a playoff team?? I been saying 5 years, And the way this franchise has played the last 2 years.
It just might be one of those decade long trips to the bottom of the NHL.
I know you understand how long it takes for kids to get a grasp for the game (if they ever do), But your fellow Fan(s) do not.
Reinhart wasn't drafted for passing. It was his vision for the game. That includes two way play.
Well Coastal said he was, Is he mistaken?
yes, and thats fine. passing is reinharts best asset, probably. but what made reinhart a top prospect goes far beyond his passing.
which begs the question: why do you care what we sabre fans think?
Where did I say I cared??
Stop with your projecting it's stupid.
you took the time to let us all know, again, that we sabre fans are stupid for believing in the future of the team.
yeah, if it walks like a duck, and talks like a duck, its probably a duck.
Now you're getting it, You still holding on to your 3 year PROJECTION now that you know what a duck is??
yup.
a duck cant predict the future. it can, however, recognize behavioral patterns.
Not your duck..
and you took the time to return and comment. but keep telling us you dont care as you create argument over argument how sabre fans view their future. clearly the actions of a person who doesnt care.

Oilers losing to the upstart press.
