Fired their HC after the 2022 season Fired the HC in 2023 after failing to make the playoffs by 2 points Only in his 3rd year has HC for Seattle who is only in their 3rd year as a franchise Just fired their HC Lindy Ruff recently after being bad (goalie issues) even though they will finish above Buffalo most likely Fired their HC in 2022 and hired Torts who is their current coach. Fired their HC in 2023 and hired Tocchet Lets add in LA, fired their HC in January 2024 How about Detroit, 2022 fired their HC So every single one of those teams you listed fired and moved on from their HC in the time that Granato has been HC with the Sabres except for Seattle. I think Adams will stay but I see no reason why Granato should. At a minimum, every single one of this assistants except the goalie coach should be fired and replaced with an experienced veteran coach. Lack of accountability in Buffalo for a product that regressed (they play some really boring uninspired hockey for long stretches) and will miss the playoffs for the 4th straight year under Granato and Adams.

Samson the Reinharted is fine.

At 10? Yea probably

Ty. Boucher. Sabres don't need a jerk. They need heart, miles and miles of heart.

Quinn and Benson on a line together is going to be electric. If we luck into Celebrini, those 3 together would be one of the best lines in hockey in 2-3years. Before someone ***** about waiting that long, I'm not saying we should, just noting the timeline of those 3 if it were to happen.

Zach Benson should have been a top 5 pick. He's not even 19 yet and put up 23pts in 60 games while driving and connecting every line he touches. Rosen and Kulich aren't even close to the same caliber of prospect and I hope as you point out here, they realize it now.

I'd fire Forton without a 2nd thought. If Karmanos and Ventura go, I'm done with this franchise.

They need to fire granato, ellis, and whatever the defensive coach is. If they don't it is another indictment on Terry Pegula and his complete failure as an NHL owner. In fact he is the worst owner in the NHL. 13 years, no playoffs, all of them under Pegula. I hope he sells the team.

I admire all of you that still have hope, I really do. For me the season ended in December and next season is meaningless unless at a minimum all the assistant coaches get fired (goalie coach excluded) and personally feel that Granato needs to go too. It is very evident that the level of play demanded and expected by this coaching staff is lightyears below what a playoff team requires let alone a cup contender. This team isn't good enough and that starts with Pegula. Adams isn't good enough either. Bunch of children playing games and they expect me to spend my hard earned money on this dumpster fire, fat ***** chance. Grow up and make the playoffs. I ain't spending a dime on the Sabres until they do.

Sabres are 6-4-2 against Vegas. I personally do not feel Vegas has our number at all.

Krebs isn't good.

Seems to be the hot topic even though, imo, it's easily Dahlin.

I'm not making a poll. Pick who's better and say why you think that. I'm asking because I am curious to hear about ppls feelings on Dahlin and on another defender widely touted as good in Seider. This is in light of comments here and Detroits recent slide in the standings. You can conceive "better" any way you wish. Let's say, who would you want on your team if salary and years left on contract were equal?

Zach Benson.

No he shouldn't. Nothing about Zach Benson's play indicates he should be in Rochester.

If you're talking any Benson, there's a 0% chance he's in Rochester next year. 0%

The kid might have just figured it out... in that case, sky's the limit for Benson.

lol, Byram is not currently better than Dahlin. lol

His team is the 2nd seed in the SHL playoffs. He won't be here until they get eliminated. There is a filter on Östlund's name

That is how he mainly played in College as well. Lots of using his reach and being not overly physical because everyone was smaller.

Wahlberg won't be 19 until July. Something to keep in mind when thinking about him and his skills. Östlund for contrast is 1yr 4months older.

I firmly believe Buffalo needs a coaching change. Both assistants and Granato need to be relived and a better coach brought in. Brind'Amour would be my first choice. If Adams goes into the 24 season with Adams and both assistants, it not only proves he lacks the ability to lead but that he lacks the courage to make difficult choices.
