Did the Sabres and Wings trade uniforms between the 1st and 2nd period? Everything has sucked since....skating, shooting, goaltending, etc.

Can't score if you don't shoot

Worst period they've played maybe this whole month so far.

What the hell was Skinner looking at?!?!

More Buffalo turnovers (this period) than a Pillsbury dough factory

Power is a 100% Wuss

Too late to impact this season. I hope he has better luck than Muel, but I fear that both are going to be injury prone the rest of their careers.

Meanwhile, nobody in the Buffalo media has the courage to ask HCDG "Hey Don, your goalie got hit twice by opposing players. Why didn't anybody take exception to this and go after the Detroit players...even though you had a big lead?" There are times I genuinely HATE the Sabres.....allowing your goalie to be hit (twice) with no response is completely unforgivable, whether the game is close or not.

Another reason why it is very hard for me to like this team. They don't have to even win for me to like them....they just need to act like they care about each other vs. messing up their hair.

Don't worry, DG will tell us after the game that they'll address it.

Our forwards collectively lack the ability to carry the puck over the blue line and maintain possession. Offensive zone entries have been bad for quite a while now.

The Sabres lack an elite forward who can carry the puck thru the neutral zone with speed and into the offensive zone while maintaining control/possession. Tage has shown no ability to do so this season. Gotta say Jack Eichel was pretty good at doing this and the Sabres miss that kind of player.

Would not be surprised to see him AND KO back next year....we'll see.

Pegula once again demonstrating his self-proclaimed "I'm smarter than anybody else" delusional thinking. As the saying goes....the fish stinks most from the head.

Speculation is multiple 1st rounders, but not confirmed

8 seems to be perpetually our number. To me it's ironic because it is the shape of a demolition derby track, which is exactly what Buffalo is, a continual wrecking mess.

I'd settle for their coach

And Skinner is not one of them....correction, now he is.

He's not making $8 million a year like Power will be.

I think Girgs would be more effective on D than Power lately. Maybe the staff should move him to the blueline permanently.

The postgame presser will be the usual softballs from the Buffalo media. In tonight's case, all the questions will be about how well the new guy Byrum played and nothing about the crapshow we saw on the ice.

Save your gas money

I'm beginning to think Jeff Skinner has a better defense IQ than Owen Power. What the hell was he doing behind the net vs. covering the front?!?!

Tage played like crap last night....is he really hurt or is he being sat to make a point? Still would like to believe he's played most of the season hurt.

Yes, but GMKA also said he was NOT shopping Mitts....he's a liar in my book and I don't trust DG either. That said, I would expect to see them playing together tonight just as you mentioned.
