Anyone else hoping Levi takes over as #1 sooner than later?

Gonna need a few bloody Mary’s to get through this one

Jesus Christ, they are the same team as last year. Who gives a crap about shuffling up the bottom six again.

I honestly think they have to trade three of the top six forwards. This team, as it is constructed will never win together.

If they play both games like this, I hope that the entire crowd boos when that team is introduced next Thursday.

Thank GOD I finally gave up these season tickets. holy hell did they look terrible already.

Let’s at least come back home with a split, please

The way I see it is that they have ZERO chance to be top 3 in the division so can they get a wildcard, of course. Do I think they will get a wildcard? No. It feels like the Bills 17 year drought and until they get their Josh Allen, it's just spinning the wheels all over again. Eichel was never that Josh Allen due to his personality...

I have seen this song and dance far too many times to have any hope. But, since I finally dropped my season tickets, I am sure they will probably have a great season just to spite me.

Honestly, I would be happy if they were at least within 4 points of 8th when March begins. I don't expect playoffs but at least give me a season where most of the games are meaningful. I can't wait for the day when life is injected back into that sorry building.

I would not have had a captain this year but if it had to be done, he was the ONLY player I would even consider. It's just too bad that now he'll be traded and go win a Cup with someone next year.

I went to a charity event 3 weeks ago and just found out that I won a signed Jack Quinn jersey - yay me 😁

Wow, that lineup looks drastically different than past years. Maybe they do have a shot at playoffs?

I actually wondered today if I am even interested in this season coming up. If this stench has penetrated an absolute die-hard fan, what is the feeling around casual Sabres fans? Not in a MILLION years would I have ever thought so little about a Buffalo sports team. I hope that winning brings back the spark but wow, it's just an absolute shame that this organization has sunk so low. After FINALLY giving up my season tickets, I am sure they will probably make the playoffs. My daughter (who just loves this team) is heading off to college in 4 days and never saw one single playoff game. It's really hard to believe that they have not only been bad, but one of the worst (and most boring) teams for so incredibly long. I don't see any avenue for this team to be better than 500 but who knows, maybe all of the stars align and that arena will actually wake up from the slumber. If these youngsters don't perform this year, it has to be time to go the trade route. Florida has been masterful at that but a capable GM will be needed. Too bad we never interviewed their guy for the job🤣

That usually happens around mid February in this city. Hoping for another solid effort for the last 2 months of the season 🤐

Honestly, because the teams around them are improving a lot faster than Buffalo. If there is even a minor slip-up in goal, this team is buried. The overall defense will have to improve dramatically for them to have a chance at the 8 spot.

I still see the team as bottom 5 in the NHL. I reallllllllyyyyy hope I am wrong but looking at the playoff team rosters from this past year, I don't think they are remotely close.

Time to pay Milano injury settlement and cut him. His career is done in Buffalo, crap.

The new roof will be a fantastic addition to this arena since we consistently look to the heavens and ask what we did to deserve this team 🤐

If Adams was in his first year as GM, he would have NEVER EVER made this trade. This move does have panic written all over it and I have zero doubt that it will be painful to see how these two careers are MASSIVELY different.

If I had to grade those years in FA; 2022 F Minus 2023 F Plus 2024 B

October and November look to be pretty manageable. If they are out of 8th by December 1, I assume they will be finishing bottom 10 in the league again.

That is not my job, that is a job that is clearly waaaayyyyy over Adam's head.

Everyone keeps saying that we need to get a 3rd line center but the silver bullet is a 2nd line center, push Cousins down to 3 and trade Krebs. Offer Krebs, 1st round 2025 pick (unprotected) and a top 3 prospect for a 2nd line center. I wonder if that would be enough.

I know this is a serious question and yes, they are probably better. They will be more entertaining to watch but this is still a bottom feeder in the NHL when you look at the 16 playoff teams. They are still at LEAST a year (and probably more like 2) away from sniffing 8th place. There is a dark cloud over this team and I barely feel any better about this coming year than I have over the last 10. It just sucks to be such a hockey crazy city and have nothing to look forward to year after year. At least they are not getting my money for the upcoming season.
