I have almost no interest in watching anymore, which kind of sucks as this team was exciting for a decent chunk of the season, even when losing, I was excited to see "new" eichel and Dahlin and the new system. Now, I've missed the last 3 (thankfully) and it hasn't inspired much in terms of excitement, oh sabres why do you do this to us.

Ummmm... Overrrrrrrreaction

Sooooo, starting this early had no effect on the outcome, also PA's game is starting to slip, we were high on him during the streak but he's come back down to earth. He was last seen muttering to himself in the corner "we've gotta grind these ***** out"

Since that time, yandle on a 2nd occasion manhandled a sabre and it was let go, I believe there was another serious occasion (Dallas or Minnesota) where we just tucked our tails, we are not playing like a "team" it's been that way since lucic-miller

That postgame Bogo staredown ??????

I am happy I haven't watched the last 2, I tried to steam at work but the wifi was not working with me, so I quit trying, hockey gods had my back on that one

This thread should be heating up more soon, I'm woefully unimpressed lately and that's sad

You may come back itchy Well now that escalated quickly ???

He talks to the referee, Even Jack can't do that right

Last night ripped the hockey souls from us swiftly and not gently

As the season appears to be sadly slipping away, there are many different tangents we have been going on. Phil, ROR, Rochester, GMJB, etc. But over the last 2 month, looking at eichel, I am wholly unimpressed. Yes, Jack is a great talent, he's probably our best player, but our best isn't good enough. I don't really do stats, so you guys can certainly bring that it here, but looking and seeing controller unplugged Jack has been concerning, his D awareness and hustle had been intermittent at best, his shot and pass selections are a mess, he's still not hitting the net, he hasn't thrown a check since I can't remember when. His attitude just screams entitled, I don't know what it is exactly, but while he's an offensivelu gifted player, he often leaves much to be desired on an "intangible" level. Some may not agree, but id like to hear what you guys think, I also think some healthy debate can happen here, and gives eichel his own thread also. Lastly, would anyone be opposed to trading Jack for an amazing haul? Vegas made it to the finals with good pieces throughout and no true star, it's not like it can't happen, it's not what I'm advocating, just advancing discussion.

If anything, this February has buried any chance he had

Charles Clay released the ball, Every... Single.... Time

Just saw the high (low) lights.... And I know it's not the whole game, but is #9 really as lazy as he looked, especially On D?! I'm not really a fan of this year's Jack Eichel, he's offensively selfish and is a very non-engaged player.... Dude has the raw talent to be talked about with the likes of the Crosbys and etc, but he just doesn't get there. Point totals be damned, I want my captain to not do stick fling drive bys, actually backcheck and not only turn on the wheels when there's a chance for him to score. Otherwise, I'm happy I missed this game it appears, games like this, at this point in the season make it evidently clear they are not playoff contenders, as for all the talk about meaningful games in March, I'm not so sure we're gonna get those.

So what is the whole plan, game is at 1, do we have the room booked at Coles or Gates or wherever we may go

All the way into February, sabres on a playoff cusp, and we're still talking ROR....i kinda Expect this when it's off season or we're just plain bad. But I didn't think it would continue this far. In saying that, I do realize that our lack of a #2 center is hurting us and that this is correlated, but overall, no one knows. Maybe ROR takes out Dahlin or Skinner in practice on accident, maybe he regresses, no one knows what would have happened. Enjoy the team now and the growth, maybe Thompson becomes a thing (maybe not) maybe we get our Datsyuk with that pick we got. Spilt milk is spoiled, buy a new gallon and drink down the refreshment that is new Sabres hockey

Hey, he has like a buzz cut, I think we should call him full metal jacket flow and I can be Thor..... Mithout muscles

I think we end up with 84-88 points this year, we just can't compete when the playoff hunt really kicks into high gear and the physical play starts, we've seen it and we just don't have the players or actual structure now to play at that pace

What if we lost the next 2 and beat the 3 good teams.... How would you feel

I'm telling ya, all humans become heathens once airplanes are involved

I almost let that go right over my blonde head

I'm a fan of this too, if I'm not rushed, take my time, get coffee, I have an assigned seat anyways so who cares if I'm last, less sitting time anyways

The flow was capped with a sabres beanie, it's powers were mitigated
