Bruh we had 17 years of futility. Now every game is straight up party. I’m not even talking about tailgating. I just mean the atmosphere surrounding the team. We have Josh. Life is good. Of course everyone wants to win the chip but only one team gets to do that every year and it’s usually not the same team. So I’ll continue to ride out this wave of Buffalo Bills fun until the wave comes crashing to the shore. What a ride it’s been.

For the record, I never need to hear the owner of a franchise speak. Nothing he says matters, it’ll just be platitudes to placate the masses. I need action, not words.

All these words are great. Too bad nobody in the Sabres org cares. I’d say I’ll be happy when the season ends but even then, just more of the same. Same BS lines from the same players and coaches. I’m going to my grave with this team being the worst run business in the world.

Well, he’s not going anywhere. Just one big happy family here.

Mattias Samuelsson has value?

Paul Hamilton, as little regard as I like to give him, mentioned yesterday on WGR that he thinks Mattias’s injuries have had a cumulative effect and he’s no longer the player he once was. Dude is like 25. WTF are we even talking about. Get this dude off the team, out of the org and let me forget about this woeful era of Sabres hockey.

And he’s also a top 6 center 🤦‍♂️

There is nothing that can come out of Kevyn Adams mouth that interests me. Other than goodbye.

I can’t wait to see which of these children gets to come to Buffalo and immediately want to off themselves.

What future? Perennial last place contenders? I can’t wait to see the future kids suck as much as the current kids.

He’ll probably turn into Rob Neidermeyer with some other team

At this point, I don’t think they are making the playoffs before either of us are gone

I don’t know how anyone would choose to root for a team with Eichel that circumvents the cap every year with no repercussions. I guess that’s the new America, root for whatever immoral thing you want if the ends justify the means.

Eichel has always been a great talent. Coaching didn’t make him great.

So what you are saying is we are only 4-5 players away, which they will never be able to acquire but because it’s only 4-5 players, they are close? I don’t

Doubt I’m around much more than a decade

The guy that’s never coming to North America?

More like Woe is us. There is no indication that Kevyn Adams, the worst sports GM of all time, is going anywhere.

Is the over 100 million people that access ESPN last year included in “average person”?

This sounds like they are far away from being good

My heart aches every time I see Hagel on any ice surface. Same with Borgen, Reinhart, Montour, etc. I just want to wake up from this nightmare.

It’s not that the Sabres are awful, they are, it’s that they are never going to be good. I’m 53 and I don’t think this team will be good again until I’m gone. They’ve made every wrong move a franchise can make and are doubling down on those efforts. They’ve removed every player with an ounce of character and filled their roles with children who were handsomely rewarded for “wanting to be here”. I’m to find a reason to have a glimmer of hope. This team has acted in a manner that would lend one to believe they are trying to lose fans. It’s not hard to appease WNY hockey fans. Draft and develop tough good players who play the right way and play with intensity. Instead they draft disinterested eating disorder candidates who run to mommy whenever things get ugly. I hate this team so much. They are the opposite of anything I’d ever want to root for. How does a WNY native who played in a mucker role not understand this? I’m wondering if he’s brain damaged or clinically stupid.

Right and those players were supposed to be Dylan, Tage, Owen and Dahlin. I give Dahlin a lot of *****, usually not entirely deserved, but he’s the only guy of the four I have any inkling he’ll be a part of the solution in Buffalo. Whoever else is going to “be the change” within the org aren’t here yet. Adams isn’t instilling confidence that he can of will fix it. So….

Obviously not much comparison between Sabres hockey and 4 Nations. Other than both are called hockey. Its ends there. This tournament is just a stark reminder that Buffalo has no current path to success. No one they have in the wings is coming to save the franchise. No Russian Wunderkind is getting smuggled into the country to rescue the org. The guys on the roster aren’t it, the prospects aren’t it and no one they draft will be reaching this franchise. They shot their wad. Four top 2 picks and all they have to show worth a damn is Dahlin.
