Let’s go Sabres!

Better: Krebs and Clifton Worse: Power and Samuelson

Hard to skate with Speed when we struggle to get through the Neutral Zone… Wow… Look at the O-zone, Shooting, and Goal stats… Focus on Defense this year really affected our Offense… Temporarily during the learning curve, let’s hope… Looking for better balance the 2nd half.

NHL Recap shows Thompson as the #1 Star??… Can’t be right… JJ had to be the First Star.

Levi was very shaky start of the game… Gave up two quick goals on four shots… Another soon thereafter… Almost got pulled, but he settled down after the Sabres scored… Watch Granato’s postgame interview…

Good period… Enough for me tonight… Goodnight all… Looking forward to watching Granato’s post game victory speech… and Sabre presentation to JJ in the morning. Go Sabres!

Skinner point blank fail

Boom… Quinn… Beauty

One guy is playing tonight… Tuch and Thompson should be embarrassed.

Boom… Peterka… Was about to post Quinn has been silent tonight…,Nice pass

Tuch is just not a dangerous shooter… Needs to work on it.

Can Granato send them out attacking, shooting, and rushing the net??…

Playing soft again… Dahlin and Greenway big minutes… No hits… Sabres rarely set a physical tone… Coaching.

No one at the net…

Another stupid Skinner slash… Getting to be a regular thing with him.

Brutal… Just beat Levi clean…

Levi not ready… Better reset fast or could be ugly…

Peterka… Boom…

Geez… Already?…

Great work, @mjd1001… Had UPL 3-4 yrs at $2M per… Upping it to $2.5-$3M per based on your research.

Not puzzling to me… Players aren’t motivated to compete night in night out for Granato, each other, and the fans… Need a new Coach… and a new Captain… Pegula and Adams need to shake the bottle.

After this road trip, perfect time to rotate several of our studs into the press box for a few games each… Tuch, Power, Thompson, Dahlin, Mittelstadt, Cozens… and bring up prospects to get some NHL game experience… Show the studs what hunger and desire plays like…

Granato is a nice guy… A thoughtful, knowledgeable, articulate hockey analyst… Excels at explanation… Granato fails as an NHL hockey coach. His team quits too often… Too many top players mail it in without recourse. It’s on Pegula and Adams to act… Count me among those here tired of saying it.

That would be on Granato, Okposo, Dahlin, and Tuch… Leadership failure.

Window dressing… So they can retire to the locker room and pretend they’re tough… Wonder who will do the post game interviews?
