Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Hour 1 - What is your confidence level for the Sabres after not getting Hellebuyck and Sal Capaccio on the Sam Franklin debacle
Q: What are you planning on doing for the Bye Week?
Sal describes a busy week that included a documentary premiere, a broadcast awards event, his son's hockey, a Syracuse basketball game, and plans to relax and watch football the next day.
Hour 1 - What is your confidence level for the Sabres after not getting Hellebuyck and Sal Capaccio on the Sam Franklin debacle
Q: So what exactly is going on with all of that?
Sal Capaccio says the NFL appears to have found insufficient evidence to suspend Sam Franklin for spitting, while still fining him for unsportsmanlike conduct, possibly related to the altercation after the whistle.
10-24 Full Show
Q: Should the Sabres already have an idea where their game is, given last season's results, or how much longer could it take them to find their stride?
Beier says young players may need time to settle into their roles, but the team must become more consistent and can use last season as a benchmark.
10-24 Full Show
Q: Is it okay that the Sabres did not get Connor Hellebuyck, or should they have pursued that move?
Gretchen Beier says the team can improve with its current roster and that acquiring Hellebuyck would have required giving up assets that are helping Buffalo or developing in Rochester.
Hour 2 - Gretchen Beyer on the Sabres long road trip ahead starting in Washington and Alex Tuch
Q: Should they kind of have an idea where the game is already, you think, or how much longer, in your opinion, do you think it could take them to maybe find their stride?
Beyer says it may take time for young players to find their game after the team lost major contributors. She points to last season's turnaround in December as a possible benchmark and says there are still many games left.
