Forecheck

I think the ONLY way Pegula even considers firing PH is if the Sabres lose 9 of their last 10. I think it’s a definite possibility. And hopefully that will be enough to bring about change. I still wouldn’t hold my breath on it.

This team has more talent than Bylsma’s teams did. Yet they will finish way way worse both seasons under PH. Yet some still think Housley is a decent coach and isn’t the problem? The talent needs to improve for sure. But also does the coaching.

Same old same old. Going on what 8 seasons now? They don’t have the answers. Been grasping at straws for 8 years now.

He should be. He’s a ***** coach

I’d say Sabretooth honestly.

What an embarrassment this franchise is. Buffalo fans deserve SO much better than what has gone on for 8 years now. This team has zero heart and apparently not much talent either. Botterill has A LOT of work to do.

Yep. But apparently it’s not the coaches fault that we are still a bottom feeder. Anyone still wanting PH back next year I have to question their hockey understanding.

Both of these franchises(Sabres/Oilers) are feeling the same thing

Can we just fast forward to July 1st and see if we can actually build a real team next year?

They have been one of the worst shooting % teams for years now

Well he would have to do a 180 real quick then

Please get Pominville the F out of here forever

You’ll need a different head coach if you ever expect that to happen. Not that you’re wrong in wanting it.

Housley doesn’t recognize much.

Actually more like the last 3 months have been a display of poor defensive effort.

This team is sad

Serious question...how many Sabres could crack the Leafs lineup? I’m thinking 6-7 at best.

Speed and skill of the Leafs over the Sabres isn’t even close. Men against boys when the Leafs really want to play well.

Season was longgg over before this.

It’s a knee or high ankle sprain. Guess he won’t be traded Monday now for sure.

I wasn’t the one advocating firing Botterill. That was someone else. I’d get rid of the coach and half the roster before replacing Botterill

People here have been looking at the future for 8 seasons. How has that worked out?

Kim likes Botterill, unlike Murray. He has time. Like it or not.

Absolutely. There hasn’t been urgency with the Sabres since 2006-07

People have said that over and over the past 8 years. Don’t hold your breath. They aren’t worried about this year anymore.
