That’s the Islanders Broadcast, the home team does player interviews for both teams

How many wins do they have?

If you mean he's probably not affecting them in a WAR sense, not enough to make up difference there, I see what you are saying. But if he's hurt and could do lasting damage I don't want him playing regardless.

If it's a pain tolerance thing, and he can't make it worse, I guess it's up to the player. I'd only take him out if I could replace him seamlessly, or I thought the player was pushing the pain limit.

I’m not sure what is more depressing:

Thursday’s game when nobody tried and we got completely embarrassed?

Or today’s when most of them are trying and we are still getting completely embarrassed?

Finished up my fat burning, kind of feel good. Went to the kitchen to get a nice glass of water and.....my daughter left the ergo waffles out, on a plate, with the toaster still warm....she's my devil spawn.

Sir.....step away from the waffles

Are you doing the "NYI goal = 100 sit ups" "NYI shot = set of 20 squats"  ?

Lol, I'm 50 with a bulging hernia, I've done 100 squats, 50 sit ups, 50 push ups (ok, ok, there half ups, but still)

All the damn weight went to mid section and love handles, this will take a bit.

NYI shot = 2 squats, NYI goal = 10  sit-ups.  You don't want to send him to the hospital, do you?

Never used this popular GIF before, but it perfectly reflect me checking in on the game just now ...

Hey, were you the one who did The Charts?  I'd love see how this season compares to others.

If we think they are trying harder today it's an indictment on the players, regardless of coach, but I'm not sure if that's what's happening.

I don't disagree but has he ever made a save when they needed one, regardless of the defense? He is completely inept. He's the proverbial screen door on a submarine. You feel you have no chance with him, even if this team could score. 

Yes! Yes he has! Sorry but this is the lamest take. "Gotta make a save" is right when your team has one or two brain farts in a game. When your team has 20 in a period, guess what? The problem isn't your goalie.

[Randall Flagg]

Small positive - getting obliterated by the Islanders, Flyers, Capitals etc. this season will be instant-bulletin board material for whoever is around to try and turn things around next year. Imagine a fresh new leaf, new coaching staff, new players, with just enough of the old ones around to tell them what it was like to be embarrassed night after night after night in a scheduling format that was conducive to things like this Islanders series happening. 

I have vague memories of Bruins players, at the beginning of their ascent in the late 2000s and early 2010s mention that it was nice to finally beat up on a sabres team that had spent a few years overshadowing them.

[Huckleberry]

I haven't been able to watch a lot of games, but to blame this on the goalies is a bit much.   I mean skinner is turning into our best defensive forward and I'm not kidding.

[Figster]

Run to the store at the end of the 1st, get back and its 4 - 1 Islanders

 

 Hutton strikes again...

What's lame, Promo, is that you are the biggest homer on both this forum and on TBD. You see very little objectively. This team and its 'decision making' are not beyond criticism. If you look forward to watching Carter Hutton play, have at it. Nobody can objectively think that the Sabres are winning with him in net. I don't feel that way with Ullmark. He at least has the ability to steal a game behind this crappy D. Hutton does not.

Tomorrow at 12: we will witness the same thing.  There is not even the slightest doubt about it.  Ralph will be gone Monday.  KA backed himself into a corner now.  Call Gallant.  It’s the obvious right thing to do. Nobody else available with his track record.  At least get competitive.  This is absurd. 

It might wait until Wednesday after Philly... last game of the road swing.

[French Collection]

I would even give Babcock a chance to revive his career.

I would not like helping the Leafs by paying their ex-coach. I know they have mountains of money but I still hate them more than this current Sabres team.

RK hockey - We Put the “L” in Losers!

[GASabresIUFAN]

So KA what new information has today's blow out given you that we didn't have yesterday?  Why is RK still the coach?  Fire him after today's game.

I need to move way faster than I thought. Can't even make it through the weekend.

And Jack will never volunteer to rest.  That's why they need to shut him down.

Jack is in a damned if you do or damned if you don’t situation, he plays hurt and social media says he doesn’t give a ***** anymore and wants to be traded 

If he sits out, social media will say he is not a team player, doesn’t care and wants to be traded.

[SwampD]

This is not on Hutton. Not even close.

Its all coaching.

I still can’t believe Olofsson’s decision at the blue line that led to the fourth goal.

Krueger sucks.

[Thorner]

Ralph said he knew Risto was due for a crash...Risto on pace for 21 today

Ralph is a dope
