Sadly, I have zero faith in the idiot owner to : a. Realise this. b. Execute on this.

McDavid would’ve scored 20-25 goals per year here had we won the lottery, they we turn top players into hot dogshit. Yes, Eichel was a huge letdown, but seeing as our two tank-trophys both have a cup, and we’re still on the crapslide, I’d say the verdict has been in for some time : Buffalo is where careers go to die, or never start. Reinhart had 57 goals last year, FFS! Brandon Montour is back to racking up twice the points as he did in Buffalo. Except of course that one season where he quadrupled it, but I digress. The verdict still stands : The Sabres. Are. A. Massive. Tub. Of. *****.

Who cares anymore?

Don’t know which is scarier - The fact that it’s true, or the fact that I’m not even schocked.

Someone falling weird, may be considered an accident. Someone getting behind the wheel hammered, is by choice. The law may see those two identically. But they really shouldn’t.

I like Lindy, but I fear his hiring was rushed.

That was actually the Schaffer concussion, that turned out to be a protuding disc in his neck. Pretty good read on him here, apparently he coached peewee with Jim Lorentz boy, back in 2020 https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/1669164/2020/03/12/what-happened-to-sabres-star-tim-connolly-after-7-years-hes-ready-to-explain/

If Zegras is a two-way forward, I’d really hate to see those one-way forwards…. 😳😳😳

He’s slow, and doesn’t backcheck. No thanks.

Trevor Zegras is “Immature Jack Eichel” on steroids. Hard pass. This team needs maturity and stable work ethic. Two of which are traits that’ll make Zegras react like a vampire having a crucifix showed in his face.

Not the kind of help Zegras provides.

No! Just no. Trevor Zegras exemplifies everything wrong with modern hockey players.

I wasn’t expecting them to be anything else, but with any addition, I’ll expect it to be an upgrade. Something that rarely happens around here, sadly. Hence the comment.

It means the decade of watching seemingly good players come in and immediately drop to the level of the current roster, has made me an utter cynic.

Any chance they also skate harder than the current bunch? Otherwise, meh…

Terry Pegula : Hold my beer.

Any team with Kyle Okposo playing a regular shift, doesn’t have “it”, whatever that means. The guy was an overpaid bum from day 1.

No, we tanked when our previous core failed because losing was acceptable. The Roy, Pominville, Stafford, Ennis, Myers years were the shitshow that got us all into this god-awful mess in the first place. Losing being acceptable was a culture well in place before the tank.

People have really short memories around here. That culture was introduced by the likes of Roy, Pominville, Stafford of the late 00’s. KA never built this, he just failed to change it. Just like everyone else.

Seems familiar…

The Leafs should let Matthews sit for the remainder of the series, they just played their best game of the series without him.

Reminds me of the Sabres, since 05-06….

Avs outshooting the Jets 12 -4 halfway through the first…

At least he has NHL experience, so I guess in that sense, the franchise is moving forward…

Well, I’d say the jury is still out on to whether or not they have in fact “figured it out”. Talk is cheap, and this team talks an awful lot.
