I can't use Mitts as an example, he's gone. I am looking at the inconsistencies, and Peterka is the only line 1 talent we have currently with consistency. We need a superstar line 1 center, and a line 2 with....consistency. I don't mind Tuch on line 2 wing, but yes, I'm honing in on Tage as part of a package to bring in a real superstar. Understand this, until these moves are made, i.e. Tage and Cozens gone, superstar/elite puck possession with consistency in high volume danger play talent is brought in, nothing will change, in my most humbled opinion. The cupboards of talent are overflowing, the lower end of the forward roster is a positive, the defense is maturing, last night not withstanding, the time to strike is now. Waiting is not an option with success, again, in my most humbled opinion.

Culture change takes time. It isn't like flipping a light switch. That being said, Adams re-worked the 4th and part of the 3rd line. He has to know the really big job, the one with the pain hardest to swallow, is now before him. Re-working the top lines, lines 1 and 2. Some pieces can stay, some......must go. And it's not just about subtraction, this will have to be subtraction with addition. The prices to pay to bring in the required superstar talent at line 1 center is going to be painful I'm afraid. Peterka needs a better center than Tage, sorry, just calling it as I see it based on elevating the line.Then there's line 2, which needs to be addressed in a very serious way to get production going. just one fans observational opinion.

I'm not even mad. This is what the NHL has given us, robbing us of McDavid, what Pegula has given us as the lost in the woods owner and what the players who do end up here give us. It's game after game after game season after season after seafon decade after decade after decade. I don't see the NHL allowing this to end, as a fan base, we aren't even an after thought.l after all. -

Lindy walks in to the hush locker room, let's a long wet one rip, turns and starts walking in circles in the room and says...."This is how Sabres faithful feel" as players start gasping for air, looking for a way out...... Film at 11 -

Maybe. But it's clear Cozens 9s struggling in every facet of the game. For 7 mil a season the disappearance for this stretch of time is no longer an addressable concern internally. He needs to be out of the line up and most certainly moving on from him needs to be in the planning stage so when it is set in motion they are prepared. Truth be told, Adams looks the fool with that contract. He isn't working out here. -

Will Lindy allow players to have their own goal songs?

Did the tree actually fall, or did it show up in the forest for the soil nutrients being handed out? -
They are what they are, which based on the first 3 games 9f this season, are in point of fact, not "better than this". If they were the results would show it.

It wasn't always this way. And bright times at some point and time lay ahead I am sure. But as of now, given the decisions made from the ownership on down to the plays on the ice, it would appear we'll have to wait awhile longer. It's always been tough to be a Buffalo sports fan. For those that stay faithful, you learn to develop an extremely thick sports skin. This doesn't mean it will always be this way though.

They aren't beating Florida. The high scoring a couple seasons ago was the anomaly, and sadly, contracts were given based off of that. This team has no leadership, no accountability. If they had, they would have been more than ready game 1 of the regular seadon. Instead, 3 games in, the reality is on display for all to see. There is a void of real NHL high end talent as well. Buffalo, where NHL players careers come to die, that's the actual truth as unfortunate as it is.
