GDT GDT: Boston at Buffalo 7:00 pm ET, 12/29/2016

[Beer]

DD sux, but this team didn't capitalize in 1st period when they had plenty of chances to score... Pegula's please take some action and remove this coach of his duties as well.

[Brawndo]

Damn Eichel was pissed at the end of the game

[Jacque Richard]

Start moving some of the bums

[Randall Flagg]

Lose until he's gone. 

We don't even need to root for it. He loses so many games anyway, it's going to happen whether we want it or not. 

[WanderingEye]

Maybe Bylsma's seat will get hotter when we lose 4-2, at least.

Nailed it

[Tondas]

Jack is pissed

 

Too bad he's the only one.

[Jacque Richard]

Spinning their wheels

Losing has been accepted now

[darksabre]

I'm pretty sure the guys in the Alamo at least fired their guns at the Mexican army a little bit.

[Sabres Fan in NS]

Well at least we didn't have to suffer through another terrible OT and SO.

[Randall Flagg]

Jack's gonna storm into GMTM's office. We'll never know for sure, but I can feel that it's going to happen. 

[Tondas]

Can the Vegas Golden Knights take half this team in the expansion draft?

[WildCard]

There goes your season btw folks. Time to look at the draft for next year

[Jacque Richard]

The nice lockers have paid off

[WildCard]

Well played :lol:

[MODO Hockey]

Man were you right. This sucks

[dudacek]

That's it. Season over before New Years.

Again.

It'd be a shame if he interrupted GM ZFG in the middle of making another awesome trade.

 

Our defense is somehow weaker than it was in the tank years.

Is this not the reason DD was let go by PIT??? All the talent in the world but cannot execute a system that wins games. The 300 wins isn't reality, he was gifted a perennial Stanley Cup contender

[Nitro60]

This team needs new leadership.  It is evident.  Why does he have them go turtle with a lead.  They blow it every time.  Stay aggressive.

Valid arguement.

There's a reason nobody hired him when he was let go

[darksabre]

Just once I'd like a Sabres team to "be better" instead of talking about it in the post game interviews.

[Randall Flagg]

The most important stretch of the season against teams at or below our level, finished off with two against the team we need to jump, has gone 1-5. They decided to stop playing after the first, and continued to protect their lead, right until the goalie was pulled. 

Dan's coaching and system can't score goals. It can't create leads (they went what, 8 straight games allowing the first goal?) It can't defend leads. It can't come back from deficits. It puts Gorges with Risto over and over and over again when he shouldn't even be seeing the ice except for injuries. It creates one of the worst even strength teams in franchise history and scolds any attempt to change that. It gives us a 13-22 record. What good is it? Why is it any better than any replacement we can find?

And when he goes, get Terry and Bob out of here too. They sound just like him whenever they open their mouths.

I have ZERO interest in the draft. I think I'm done following Buffalo sports for a while.

[Nitro60]

Buffalo is becoming the Edmonton of the East.  Good young talent that does not translate into wins.
