Pimlach Posted March 19, 2021 Report Posted March 19, 2021 Hmm. Tough call to put us down two men. Quote

Gatorman0519 Posted March 19, 2021 Report Posted March 19, 2021 I’ve never been more depressed about a team. Will we lose 20 in a row? Quite possibly and that’s no exaggeration. 1 1 Quote
Marvin Posted March 19, 2021 Report Posted March 19, 2021 12 minutes ago, PASabreFan said: Hank's remembered as a laughingstock, but he's credited with being the co-inventor of the 3-4 defense (or at least the inventor of a variation of it). Sounds like he was in over his head as a head coach. He just died at the end of 2019 at age 85. Great info! Thanks, PA! The original is apparently credited to Bud Wilkinson after WW II. Hank was one of the first to make it work in the pros. We Bills fans, unfortunately, can remember the No Name defence throttling teams for many seasons. Joe Collier, another failed Bills head coach, also did a lot with early 3-4 defences about the same time. Quote
Stoner Posted March 19, 2021 Report Posted March 19, 2021 Rick rarely editorializes, but he's starting to slip some digs in. I can't blame him. This hockey has to be a personal affront to him. 3 Quote
Nitro60 Posted March 19, 2021 Report Posted March 19, 2021 Least penalized team takes 4 tonight. If you struggle to score, you must stay out of the box. 2 minutes ago, Gatorman0519 said: I’ve never been more depressed about a team. Will we lose 20 in a row?

Oh, yeah, sucks for Hutton that it was 5-3 that’s not his fault. I thought you meant something happened on the goal itself that was bad luck. Quote
Randall Flagg Posted March 19, 2021 Report Posted March 19, 2021 Nights like tonight it's tough to imagine ever being good again Quote
Nitro60 Posted March 19, 2021 Report Posted March 19, 2021 Another lazy penalty in this game. Not doing much to impress the new HC 1 Quote

Nitro60 Posted March 19, 2021 Report Posted March 19, 2021 Needed to finish that break away off. Quote
Billznut Posted March 19, 2021 Report Posted March 19, 2021 I’ve seen 10 year olds with more scoring acumen than the Sabres have. I’m NOT kidding. Very very few of these guys have ANY scoring touch at all. And IF they had it years ago, it’s long gone now. Quote

That has had an effect for years on the team and its drafting. Just now, Billznut said: They all know Granato is not here long term anyways.

The new HC is out there watching like the rest of us. Quote
