  4. Feeling optimistic. I think they’re pissed and ready to elevate (finally).

    I know fans are bummed right now, not how we wanted to start the season, but the bright side of being this young of a team is that they can turn it around in a snap.

    I’m keeping the faith! Let’s go Buffalo 🦬

  5. Unpopular take but they played pretty well for the majority of last game and deserved at least a point. I’d like to see Dahlin more involved in offense from the start rather than halfway through the game.

  6. There is no reason or excuse to drop this game, so of course they will go down 3-0 in the 1st and battle back to a 4-2 loss with Bedard getting the EN. This sub will then explain how the shit goaltending was not the goaltenders fault.
