Local Celebrity Quote : I'm really not tailored for responsibility. Rick James

I'd have said the same about Tanev too.....back in October.   League's leader in hits before he got hurt isn't just skating all over the place.  He's our best forechecker & very responsible in his own zone.  Maybe most importantly...esp if comparing to Dano, Tanev's got that "give an F" factor.  Dude works his tail off.   Fairly or unfairly, that's a knock on Dano at this point. 

The way we're playing, I'm a firm advocate for as little change as possible when healthy.   Roslo ain't being wasted in the A at 20 yrs old.  

Maurice will run the lineup he thinks gives him best chance at W's.    Based solely on this year, who are we to argue? 

I agree.. Tanev's game has grown immensely this year.   He is a pitbull on the forecheck and on the PK, hes constantly applying pressure on the opposition.   He isn't the most gifted when it comes to his shot or his hands but his skating and tenacity are almost unmatched.

Roslovic showed really well last game - excited to see him this game, hopefully for ten minutes ice time - if he plays the same, don’t need tanev

ill give Dano a chance to prove himself...  like I said I’d still like to see him in front of net on second Power play unit

Lol right Tanev just "skates all over the place."  Ignorant

100th point.

Buff gets his second of the season 2-1 JEts after one

So far so good... Wheeler was gassed and made a terrible attempt to clear the puck on the goal against....  aside from that the team is firing on all cylinders.   Lehner has made some big saves so far.   

Ehlers makes it 3-1

Ehlers makes it 5-1

The firepower of the Jets is remarkable.

 

Dominant road game through 2.

Yup, punishing a team we should be punishing.

Still don’t like our passive PK, but I probably shouldn’t complain.

So kane in the box, how many of us have waited for that moment when playing against the jets

Connor scores his second of the game to make it 6-2

 

we have two players with hat trick chances tonight

Mason is fortunate that we have scored 6 goals tonight...

Why?

he let 3 in

Jets gotta get it together here late. Can't hang Mason out to dry here and let the Sabres hang around.

Yeah, because he's been so terrible tonight, right...?

HE did?

I don’t understand this mentality that any goal that is scored, is the goalies fault.  Watch the game.
