Right, they’re overrated. Second best record in the league the last three years at 37-6 behind the the Chiefs at 40-10 while averaging the same PPG. 

Thank you for defining their overratedness. Paper tigers.

Will anybody ever hold this current coaching staff accountable?  Media?  Anybody?

Nope.

Will someone take UPL for a bag of pucks?  Comrie?

No way, not even the most embarrassing moment against the Bruins. Lucic (sp) running Miller with no real response is the worst for me. I still haven’t recovered from that. When we punch these f@#keys in the face and dominate them, we will have exorcised that demon that haunts us. Whoah, got that off my chest, thanks. I think.

He Stinks right now.  He is adding nothing.  

Greenway was an Adam's knee jerk reaction and it has backfired big time, Greenway stinks.

[Claude Balls]

I have no clue when I'll go to another Sabres game. I won't buy a ticket until they are back in the playoffs. Enough of this garbage.

You gonna sell them a bridge too. I like my pucks, no way!

[Darryl Shannon's +/-]

Perfect ending. Official saw enough and ran the clock like it was beer league.

Wasn't Greenway acquired to be noticeable in games like this?  Hell,  Casey tried to be more physical.

I don't think this season is a disappointment.   But play soft like this the rest of the way and that's an issue.

[Huckleberry]

Glad I turned this game off, enough things in my life to get depressed about.

Most of his time in the AHL he was battling injuries and recovering from Hip Issues which could have affected it.

I think this is one of the first years since coming up from the OHL that he has been healthy enough to play a full season and he has been thrown to the wolves to sink or swim in the NHL

Maybe he’s still recovering from injuries then. I really DGAF at this point. He is not good enough currently, regardless. Yes, he needs better supprt. What goalie doesn’t? But if a team has to play perfect hockey in front of him for him to succeed, what does that really say about him? A goalie MUST make saves, regardless.

This is actually bad. Like it’s pretty telling and depressing 

The fanbois will still weigh these losses with playoff implications less than the wins at the end of last year in garbage time. 

Seriously, the team's performance this month totally turns the narrative upside down.

And now over to the Cackling Duff.

[Thorner]

Bruins were on a back to back and didn’t try very hard

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

Welcome to the board homie 

And if I posted here thousands of times, I'd have to wonder what went wrong.

Conservatively, we have 5 more wins this year with league average goaltending.

Where does that put us?

2 days ago they lost 5-2 to one of those teams I'm sure that you have us "conservatively" beating.

[Huckleberry]

Greenway is a big let down - He was suppoded to be KO's or Zemgus' replacement on the 4th line, just better to trade him somewhere else.

[Brawndo]

Natural Stat Trick had the Sabres at 1.61 Expected Goals against and UPL gives up 7.

That ain’t it

The post I quoted said this exactly, that they are a goalie away from the playoffs

Sorry, but I don’t read every post before responding to the ones I do read. How many more ya got?

The stats are crazy on this game. We're 66% on the deserve-to-win-o-meter on a 7-0 loss, LMAO what the heck

P1ss-poor showing today, albeit against a very, very good team. Gonna need some real leadership to keep this season from circling the f@&$/$ drain.

Depends if Adams realize his PROBLEM is Youth?

That’s my concern.  Or is the plan playoff contenders by the 2024 season?  
 

We might have to make a “hockey trade” or 2 involving a prospect … or 2 that we like.
