Dreams Burn Down

Nice save by Power. This ******* team...

Nice goal by Tuch. Great speedy effort by Zucker. Annnnnnnd we give it right back. As per the psychological makeup of this team.

Two SOG on that PP. Yay?

Reimer looking steady early on. We're going to need it.

Almost caught the Oilers sleeping there. Lack of finish, as always.

I think you're okay to quote Dandy Don Meredith, again.

Rob, is it the Kraken not getting rattled or us with the emotional capacity of a flaming bag of hamsters?

Zucker was exactly where he needed to be on that goal.

Beniers scores while smack in the middle of four Sabres.

Our defense...

Well, there's another Pens milestone against us.

The pan-out to the queue was what got me.

Perhaps they can make this Episode 4 of The Blue & Gold Standard in Buffalo Sabres: Embedded.

You're certainly entitled to your opinions, as we all are. However, I'm still amazed at how many fans show up to see this team play, visiting team fans notwithstanding. I don't think that many fan bases around the league would still care as much as ours after 14 years of unbridled ineptitude. People on this board are pissed and who can blame them? To me that shows passion, not apathy. This fan base is not only not at fault, but, for the most part, it somehow continues to care about this team in spite of itself.

After the first period, this was a disgusting Sabres effort. Even for them, which is saying something. This team cannot escape its own aroma of suck.

And, of course, he wanders in alone and untouched on that goal. This team's defense is maddening.

Won 3, lost 13, won 3, lost 3, now won 2. I'm desperately searching for avenues of interest with this franchise. I'll go with symmetry and say we win 5-4 in OT.

Completely flatline and gutless response by the Sabres to that hit.

He may eventually get it right, but, at this rate, I won't be alive to see it come to fruition.

It's somewhat reminiscent of the expanded 24 team playoff field in 2020 in which we also failed to qualify.

Typical Buffalo hockey media. Selling gold in the hills when the lode has been long extinguished. All in the name of clicks, viewership and/or copy.

Oddly enough, I thought about similar sentiments when I read the official statement by Robert Kraft on the firing of his head coach: I've never been a Pats* or Robert Kraft fan, but the middle paragraph hit home with me. TP would never say this. We, as a fanbase, deserve better.
