On either the 4th or 5th goal while killing a penalty, Bryson and Pilut allowed a player to skate in home free from the blueline and score. These guys should barely be on the ice, let alone on the PK. They both suck.

Most goals since 2/19. WTF kind of stat is that? Combining two seasons together?

What about prospects 2-3 years away? Must not block!! 😂

…but but but must not block prospects.

Experience needed in the coaching ranks, on the blueline, in the forward ranks…everywhere. They are terrible.

VAN 5 BUF 3

I don’t care where the prospect pool is ranked, if this team is not in the playoffs by the end of next season(23-24), Adams should be fired. I have beat this to death, but half of the friggin’ teams make the playoffs every year…IT SHOULDN’T BE THIS DIFFICULT.

Is Pilut still with Buffalo? In my limited views, all he has shown is that he is not an NHL defenseman.

Josh needs to know when hero ball(Favre 2.0) is okay, and when it is not. If he can’t elevate his game in this regard, can you imagine yesterday happening in a SB? If not, he will be an exciting player that over his career will win you many games, and lose games that should have been wins.

Prospects are nothing guaranteed until they can be key pieces of a playoff team. Edmonton over the last decade is the perfect example.

I was only in my teens, and remember the trade, but I don’t recall the back story. Thx. 👍🏻

Crazy odds against that happening in a game against each other, this far into their careers.

I feel your pain. I am in my early 60’s and most days I can’t remember what I had for dinner the night before. 😂

Didn't see any of the game, and from the looks of it, glad I missed it. I realize that our prospect pool looks great, but remember that Edmonton also had a brilliant prospect pool of high #1 picks over the last decade, and until McDavid came along they were nothing...and even with him, they are still inconsistent, and maybe not even the best team in their division. So for all those who want to just keep pointing at a bunch of prospects...talent alone does not make them a playoff team.

Uh oh...be prepared to be reprimanded. This type of poor fan behavior will result in WNY ending up with an AHL franchise. 😈

Not sure what message that would send to the team, when the captain decides his play is sub-par, and removes himself from the lineup.

...and that is a problem. If KO has hit the brick wall, there is no way they can sit down their Captain as a healthy scratch.

It was Smolinski. 😉

Wow. 😞

Small sample size so far this season, but Savoie's points per game numbers are down. As a year older in the same league, I'd expect them to go up, not down. Hopefully just a slow start. https://www.hockeydb.com/ihdb/stats/pdisplay.php?pid=227300

I didn’t watch much of the last couple of games, but in the short glimpses of play Clague has not looked that bad…and even maybe better than Fitz or Pilut. Yes, no, maybe? The only downside of him in the lineup is Dan D thinks Brandon Hagel is Sabres property once again, and has switched from forward to defense.

Good point on Bettman. It is unfortunate that the kid did not get good advice to address and put the the issue behind him prior to the draft…and shame on the Bruins for thinking it has been a couple of years, let’s sign him and hope no one takes notice.

Dan D sucks. Win or lose he is brutal. What was up tonight calling Clague, Hagel? It was at least twice, and I didn’t even watch the whole game because I was flipping over to the WS.

Hey Philly how does that taste? Your Phillies lost and for the 5 people that care, your soccer team lost in the MLS championship game today. 😂 Next up…the Eagles.

Those are your seats? 😱 Can we be friends? 😂
