It's been 3 months..

 

I think there's some middle ground. It's ok to not want the team to be *so* poor that even the infusion of youth we have coming would seem to not be even close to lifting us back to relevancy. We need to see a little bit more than this. 

Not even talking about today, like you said, Tbay is really good. But this team is worse this season than they should be - Adams is answerable for the talent of the group he assembled, in net, on D, at F. 

Shouldn't be this bad. It's rolling the dice on the culture you are looking to establish. 

It has.  But what's the point of decrying once again the decision to re-re-reload this off-season in a GDT?

The guys out there tonight would likely lose to the Habs & have a hard time beating the Yotes.  Get through tonight & get some bodies back for the road trip.

Sorry, just saw this garnered a "confused" emoji. 

Perhaps too obscure a reference - Dobby wishes he was free and gets a sock

Let’s not cream out over a goal. Nothing personal. 🥱

Asplund has fallen off a cliff this month. I'm not done with him because he has shown himself a good forechecker and has better hands than Larsson ever did...  but he needs a reset. I'd definitely bench him for a game or three once there aren't 5 guys in COVID protocols. Or even while they are.

Larson is not the chinning bar for me.

You know what I'm not a fan of? This 3 right shots on a line business. Quinn Cozens and Stroza are frequently to my eye finding themselves without a (-n easy) passing option

Brutal play by the Sabres in their own end.  Long standing problem of them having a hard time controlling the puck and moving it out of their end effectively.

My comparison is as the person he has semi-replaced -- someone here for 3 years or more, as a 3rd/4th C/W, who is considered defensively responsible. Asplund simply isn't the same player lately that he appeared to be growing into.

I’m not sure it will be lights years better next year. All these rookies are not magically going to get us 95 points. They will struggle at times learning the pro game. It might be 2 years until we start to be competitive.

8 min left & another 3 hrs of my life in rear view. Heaven: and how did you maximize your life?   Uuummmmm…….

I always feel worse with the 3 hours I waste on a beautiful fall sunday afternoon if the Bills play like cr**, not so much a mid-winter Tuesday night Sabres debacle
