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.

  • Daddy: @Rhino7 the previous Raiders ownership traded 11 picks for Aaron Donald.
    Today at 02:48:03 PM
  • Daddy: Ive never seen that many picks moved except for Aaron Donald & Darius Slayton.
    Today at 02:49:05 PM
  • jmntl82: Those are some high level names right there
    Today at 02:49:57 PM
  • Daddy: We let GMs cook to their own visions. Picks are useless if you dont hit on them and not all draft classes are the same.
    Today at 02:52:32 PM
  • Daddy: While im not always right... My personal evaluation is unless you are a true contender this 2024 class isnt one to sit out on.
    Today at 02:53:22 PM
  • Daddy: I want to keep saying.. i do not know everything about sports. Nobody does. I am going to say that i know more than most and im not ashamed or embarrassed to say that.
    Today at 02:54:37 PM
  • Daddy: This 2024 NFL Draft class is better than 90% of every draft ive witnessed since 1980. In NFL LIVE if you arent a top ten team, i strongly urge that you invest in 2024 draft.
    Today at 02:56:18 PM
  • Daddy: Traded all your picks? So what
    Today at 02:57:32 PM
  • Daddy: Look at the Rams. Look how young my team is. I hardly ever draft. There is more than one way to invest in young talent. The easiest way is the draft but its not the only way.
    Today at 02:58:38 PM
  • Speedster18431: Well if no one wants their 2024 picks let me know lol
    Today at 03:03:13 PM
  • Daddy: Crap me too
    Today at 03:14:18 PM
  • Daddy: Unlike all these other sports, THE NFL IS A YOUNG MANS GAME. Hockey, Baseball, Basketball, play till your 40. Not just the greats... Jamie Moyer was never great, pitched till he was 44.
    Today at 03:16:08 PM
  • Daddy: When current players hold their jobs ten, fifteen, twenty years... It means that many years of prospect blocking. In whatever sport.
    Today at 03:17:23 PM
  • Daddy: The avg NFL career lasts 3 years. Look it up.
    Today at 03:17:50 PM

  • Daddy: Giants TE Darren Waller is set to retire. 3yrs ago he was a top TE in the league.
    Today at 06:04:36 PM
  • Daddy: Waller is 31 years old
    Today at 06:05:23 PM
  • Daddy: Thats when some baseball players & hockey players peak.

  • Daddy: @Alpha5 [link]
    Today at 06:11:33 PM
  • Daddy: NHL/NFL/MLB LIVE GMs be warned, if you miss a week, you miss a lot in those leagues. Take your time building, take your time evaluating, learn at your own pace.
    Today at 06:22:23 PM
  • Daddy: Just know, if you miss time at any point of the year, not just the active season. You have missed a lot. You've probably fallen behind your competition. Ten-Fifteen guys in all three of those leagues dont ever miss any opportunities.
    Today at 06:24:04 PM
  • Daddy: One more thing. The NFL LIVE waiting list is longer than you see on profsl or fantrax. There are people that know people that want in that league. No pressure on anyone but i cant just hold your franchise while you draft and do nothing else.
    Today at 06:33:37 PM
  • Daddy: i built College football for you guys that do that. Great scoring system, no trades, set your lineup and go getm! NFL moves too fast for that mentality. Apologies.
