This is the best build the Sabres have had in the drought. 

That's like being the prettiest fat girl at the dance.

You do you. I cannot hate.

1) won’t be so young next year 

2) decent goaltending at least gives you a chance 

Yes, they'll be older, but the same bad habits will linger within the current "system", whatever that may be.  That also is under the assumption that all of the other teams around us regress, which is highly unlikely.  

Aren't many goaltenders out there that could've succeeded under this "system" and the schmucks we have on the blueline.

Play the man, not the puck Rasmus!

You must be older than 50 like me. I don’t think they do that anymore.

@Contemptif you really believe that GMKA and/or CDG are being fired, you need to get another team. Not happening this year. This is the best build the Sabres have had in the drought. 

You and your fellow dissenters lack of foresight and patience is a mere disturbance in the FORCE.

\\ 

They seem pretty determined to test Lord Terrence's patience right now.

No, I don't think they'll be fired. The only way they get fired is if they come really close to losing out and keep getting blown out. They'll do just enough to keep everyone clinging to that crumb of hope.  Then when they open the year 5-20 because they still defend worse than Pee Wees DG will get fired.

....and you will be first on the bandwagon when they hit on the young ins.....Receipts are being kept. You will be held to account with your ilk. Love you butttttttttt.....

Oh really.....what will be the consequences? Well played hockey?

 

[GoPuckYourself]

Lets take a bet now, will DG pull the goalie with 3 minutes left, 2 minutes left, 1 minute left or not at all?

Robert Salah wants his phrase back. You can keep all those receipts with the Jets too.

[John Tucker]

Ooof... Net is empty.  Another game with at least 7 GA

Correct!

[French Collection]

Well at least UPL didn’t let any in.

[Gatorman0519]

Why pull the goalie at this point. 

[Kronsteen]

What's our success rate when going empty net? How many empty net goals do we give up?

[John Tucker]

Screw it... Keep the net empty.  Let em' pile up as many as they can

A lot.

[Carmel Corn]

So how will Donny try to sugar coat this one in the post game presser?  "I like how we battled back and won the 3rd period" and/or this is a good way to have a good mindset going into our next game......blah, blah, etc.

[Believer]

Think if DG had pulled Anderson earlier, the team might have started playing before the 3rd period…

First on the bandwagon is hilarious. It took me until when, mid February to say they were at least entertaining this year? At which point that immediately stopped BTW.  Yeah I'll be doing cartwheels in October when they are 2-0. Enjoy the trolling positivity. I'm sure it's enjoyable for you.

This game sucked. I am sorry, I cannot argue with the Earth 2.0, when I live on 1.0 and reality.... growth, development, good coaching and GMing. The two cannot live in simpatico. Enjoy 2.0, my friend.... See you on the other side.... you are welcome to come back to Earth 1.0 anytime.

[Gatorman0519]

What a disaster of a franchise. 

[John Tucker]

There weren't enough fans left in the mausoleum to boo at the final horn.

It is really and truly felt. Not trolling. Sorry to dissapoint. See you on the bandwaggon next year.

Keep waving that self righteousness around. Yes, you are the better fan than I am.

[Thorner]

Dahlin might really screw around and end the year as a minus player. Would have been simply unfathomable as recently as a couple weeks ago. 

They urgently need to pull up here cause this nosedive is quickly getting dangerously beyond late season peter out

I am tiring of having to say this. Have you seen no improvement overall this year, yes they have wilted (they are youngest team in NHL), but they have had significant improvement overall. I too am disappointing they are not making playoffs, but see the bigger picture of what is going on with the team. I am sorry if you and the others on this site cannot yet.
