Nothing wrong with the ice. It’s just new and hasn’t been skated on.

Now, the world don't move to the beat of just one drum,
What might be right for you, may not be right for some.
A man is born, he's a man of means.
Then along come two, they got nothing but their jeans.

But they got, Diff'rent Strokes. It takes,
Diff'rent Strokes. It takes,
Diff'rent Strokes to move the world.

Everybody's got a special kind of story
Everybody finds a way to shine,
It don't matter that you got,
not alot,
So what,
They'll have theirs, and you'll have yours, and I'll have mine.
And together we'll be fine....

But they got, Diff'rent Strokes. It takes,
Diff'rent Strokes. It takes,
Diff'rent Strokes to move the world.

Interesting, looks like Buffalo and Josh actually redid his Contract over the summer, after that did the Restructure.

Yeah I don’t think that was a secret. They could’ve restructured it more at the time but didn’t

Well we're movin' on up (movin on up)
To the east side (movin on up)
To a deluxe apartment in the sky.
Movin' on up (movin on up)
To the east side (movin on up)
We finally got a piece of the pie.


Fish don't fry in the kitchen;
Beans don't burn on the grill.
Took a whole lotta tryin'
Just to get up that hill.
Now we're up in the big leagues
Gettin' our turn at bat.
As long as we live, it's you and me baby
There ain't nothin wrong with that.

Chico, don't get discouraged,
The Man he ain't so hard to understand.
Chico, if you try now,
I know that you can lend a helping hand.
Because there's good in everyone
And a new day has begun
You can see the morning sun if you try.
And I know, things will be better
Oh yes they will for Chico and the Man
Yes they will for Chico and the Man.

They redid his Contract, after the Restructure. That's the point. They added 30 mill to his Contract this year. This was something totally different. With what they did it dropped his Cap hit 15mill already Next Year. They basically made it a 4 yr 156mill Contract.

They would be revolting on the streets if this was Primetime still. Maybe a little Archie to!

Lance Lysowski
@LLysowski
Lindy Ruff on the Zucker-McLeod-Greenway line:

"We've got a couple guys that are really good defenders with good speed, like Greenway, obviously McLeod. Zuck is a good skater too and has speed. I really feel that the offensive part will fall into place. I've like the way they've played."


Lance Lysowski
@LLysowski
Jordan Greenway has really impressed Ruff.

Showing effort on every play. Backchecking in situations where a veteran may let up because it's a preseason or exhibition game that doesn't matter.

"I love his game. His game fits the way we want to play."

Idk, moving out Skinner indicates Ruff is going to demand 200’ commitment and effort from all lines. He’s focusing on praising the defensive effort of these guys as he tries to instill it in all lines. Maybe, (idk if preseason games have shown any indication of it) Ruff is going to have them play a more aggressive style

(start at 1:40)
It takes full commitment to the game plan from all forwards (Skinner out). Sabres have guys who can put the puck in the net, they may feast on turnovers the forechecking will create.
Imagine Dahlin turned loose like this?

Gotta have forwards committed to covering for him, though.

Rat, it is more like your Florida boys, no?
Full court press, create turnovers with intense puck pressure , yes?
