Three games in and here's what I see, over and over again: Opposing teams are making passes tape-to-tape and receiving them cleanly. Sabres passes are more "in the area" and even when they are tape-to-tape, the Sabre receiving the class NEVER gets it cleanly and the opposing player just disrupts the whole thing.

 

Detroit looked invincible for 2 periods. Since then, the Sabres' opponents have been... okay, not great. But when you can't complete a simple pass, you're never going to get anywhere.

 

I hope it's a matter of timing and the team will gel. But they're a brutal team to root for right now.

I will also say this: I don't think the play that resulted in a penalty shot was a penalty at all. Period. He had is hand on the other guy's back and swept his stick in front. Not a penalty at all, and certainly not a penalty shot.

They have NO forecheck. Until they have that and can pass the puck cleanly, they and WE will suffer for sure
