Buffalo off to good start but 5th
« on: October 26, 2018, 07:46:56 PM »
Wow, can't believe that Buffa-slug logo is used on this site.

Anyone notice the Sabres are 5th despite being 6-4 after 10 games?! Not bad but they're still sitting 5th behind :TOR-NHL: :BOS-NHL: :TBL: :MON-NHL:

I like the turn around so far in Buffalo!

I'm actually a little surprised to see Buffalo with a winning record. Hutton as their starter must be paying off. Guess the rebuilding has finally shown a positive ROI in Buffalo.

I require from my teams, proper levels of anger, belligerence and some good ol' fashion piss 'n' vinegar.

Sabres are still 5th in the Atlantic. Hutton seems to be a stabilizing force in net for Buffalo.

The sniff test with the Sabres isn't good. Their goaltending is an issue and not an easy fix. Some clubs take years to fix the problem in net. Since Miller left, Buffalo's been struggling to find a guy to plug in nightly. It also doesn't help that their defence has been weak and not much help is in sight.

Sabres are currently sitting tied for 3rd with Boston (22pts) in the Atlantic Division. Not bad. Buffalo even beat Tampa Bay last night 2-1.

Hutton has been lights out.
Another backup goalie having a career season so far is Leafs' waiver fodder 35yo Curtis McElhinney. Practically stoned the Canadiens last night making 48 saves! Time to unload Mrazek (26yo) and Darling (29yo) for a back of popcorn or something. :rofl:

Sabres are climbing in the standings thanks to Hutton. Ullmark will be good for them too.

  • BayAreaBallers: jwalkerjr88 is right
    May 17, 2024, 02:25:49 PM
  • BayAreaBallers: on that u havat trade a bit here and there
    May 17, 2024, 02:25:57 PM
  • BayAreaBallers: although my last draft class and fa class kinda lead me to a run so it can happen
    May 17, 2024, 02:27:21 PM
  • Brent: Yeah, it does help to have a big draft class and available cap.
    May 17, 2024, 02:36:56 PM
  • Brent: I'm contemplating doing a complete tear down in NFL Live and rebuild.  Honestly, I probably should have postered for it to be this season.  I still might, but I would legit need to go into the draft with 3-4 top 10 picks/+ many others.
    May 17, 2024, 02:38:21 PM
  • Brent: postured
    May 17, 2024, 02:38:35 PM
  • Jwalkerjr88: Yea nailing drafts and some key FAs helps too. But if you remember BAB you traded alvin kamara for the rams 1-7 draft picks. So the extra picks helped you nail the 2023 draft the way you did
    May 17, 2024, 03:13:02 PM
  • Jwalkerjr88: Its the combination of all three that is required is what im saying
    May 17, 2024, 03:13:31 PM
  • Jwalkerjr88: And brent a tear down with you assets would look interesting. Personally i just think you need break one big asset down into 3 good ones and move carr and go from there. But you have an A1 nfl mind so im sure you will nail whatever it is you decide
    May 17, 2024, 03:14:39 PM
  • Jwalkerjr88: *your
    May 17, 2024, 03:14:50 PM
  • BayAreaBallers: very good pt yes i did gain lot of capital which propelled me to make more moves from that trade
    May 17, 2024, 03:34:25 PM
  • Brent: Thank you.  Yes, I agree.  I do need to break one asset down to 3.  I did that with JJ, went from S tier to 2 A tiers.  Now I need to potentially go from an A tier to 3 Bs or something like that.  I've had some inquiries on Carr, but nothing worth moving him.
    May 17, 2024, 03:48:17 PM
  • Alpha5: Guarantee I know who he traded Kamara to for 1-7 without even looking
    May 17, 2024, 05:22:42 PM
  • BayAreaBallers: alpha it was a good trade at the time
    May 17, 2024, 05:29:49 PM
  • BayAreaBallers: my team was in the Crapter at that pt
    May 17, 2024, 05:29:58 PM
  • Brent: Who did you draft with the 1st acquired in that trade?
    May 17, 2024, 05:36:34 PM
  • Daddy: Whoever it was, he got six more choices on top of that. The "win win" scenario.
    May 17, 2024, 05:53:04 PM
  • Daddy: At that time i had no RB1. So i traded an entire draft class to get one.
    May 17, 2024, 05:54:10 PM
  • Daddy: SF doubled up his pick haul and went to work, using them in trades & draft return.
    May 17, 2024, 05:54:46 PM
  • Daddy: Then beat me in the NFC Title game.
    May 17, 2024, 05:55:32 PM
  • Daddy: RB is a hard position to nail down. If someone wants to trade me 1-7 for Kamara. Step right up.
    May 17, 2024, 06:02:30 PM
  • BayAreaBallers: I gotta see what I did
    May 17, 2024, 06:05:04 PM
  • Daddy: You got better
    May 17, 2024, 06:13:59 PM
  • BayAreaBallers: i did so many moves trades and draft that i honestly dunno
    May 17, 2024, 06:18:48 PM
  • Jwalkerjr88: This is the way
    May 17, 2024, 06:21:33 PM
  • BayAreaBallers: I could teach how I did what I did

    May 17, 2024, 07:37:07 PM
  • TheGOAT: Thank God that there are 3 really good qb options in the draft. Can't imagine a world with Bo Nix as my frachise qb

    May 17, 2024, 08:25:23 PM
