Can someone remind Olofsson that the only reason he is on pp1 is to shoot

This crowd is utterly embarrassing and I gotta tell you, this team is bottom 5 in the nhl, zero doubt

Perhaps when the team is actually less embarrassing than the crowd, that will change.

He was specifically getting booed? ? 

Lol I’ll poll the crowd. 
 

it was after his dribble pass to Dahlin that caused us to lose possession on the pp

Same here. I realized the playoffs were slipping away a couple weeks ago, so I contented myself by needing to see young guys still learning and contributing while the team still put up a fight. But the pressure is clearly too much for this fragile group it seems. I can only hope this serves to inform them moving forward. 

This collapse isn't something completely trivial, I want to hear and see things from Kevyn and Don that will give me confidence they will navigate through it successfully. These are the moments it terrifies me that none of the coaching staff or GM has had NHL chops before getting here. Completely blind faith right now

 

Seriously who is this "Marty Wilford" guy standing by Donny? I'm not convinced he's a real person. He looks like a coach rendering from EA NHL 2008. Why should I be convinced that this guy can fix our defense and PK?

People have noticed tape all on his wrist. If your wrist is hurting it's going to affect your shot.

I said earlier I think he's playing hurt. Makes sense.

This team would be the best if he would just be traded for a bag of pucks

It was like slow-motion, painful to watch!

Everything is his fault

Skin Solo: How are we doing?
Tuch Icewalker: The same as always.
Skin: That bad, huh? Where's Levi?
Levi (chained to the bench): I'm here.

Yes they aren’t putting in a 42 year old goalie that will probably be playing in tues night 

And again, then Adyms and Granato both are to blame.

I just got called autistic by a guy with 9 posts. 

I can't tell if I should feel honored or insulted

Welcome to the board homie 

This is the only time I'll be posting.

I thought you had self-diagnosed here as autistic before, but that could have been any number of posters, I suppose.

[JohninMinn.]

Sabres flashing the way they used to play.

I like Tuch with the C,  Dahlin and Cozens with A's next season.

Me too. Wait, what about Girgenson? I still think he has value on the team, and I think he’s a good A. I don’t know. 🤬

How can you tell? It's all Bruins fans.

I have joked about it probably. I also think I called Thorny autistic recently. I'm not autistic though my (teacher) wife says sometimes she thinks I'm slightly on the spectrum 

[Carmel Corn]

Mitts with some nice physical play behind our net there

If you're going to come at @Randall Flagg like that, good.  Don't post again.  We'll be fine.

The collapse isn’t trivial because you are what your record is and there’s a fair few games left. The only fair measure of what the Sabres WERE this season is the full point total because the point total from 75% of the way through was earned, in some ways, through an over reliance on our top players due to lack of depth that was never sustainable 

these games are ALSO the 2022-23 Buffalo Sabres.

I think he needs a change of scenery, imo.

[bob_sauve28]

That was actually a nice back hand shot, almost

I'd prefer to see Donny pounding on Greenway right now to further "engage" and make a difference!

I was accused of old fashion, even Neanderthal-like thinking, for suggesting that our 6’6” 235 lb flower-forward do this.

What about Greenway?  

Looking like Sabres mood is Greenway
