Gatorman0519 Posted October 28, 2023 Report Posted October 28, 2023 Colorado with the red hot start. UPL probably in net. Looking at the possibility of 3-6 with a tough Philly team 2x and Toronto. Total disaster. Quote

Norcal Posted October 28, 2023 Report Posted October 28, 2023 They know how to hang with NJ because they did most of the game. Late PP went the wrong way or else Sabres might tied it up. Quote
GASabresIUFAN Posted October 28, 2023 Report Posted October 28, 2023 Why didn’t we get Boston’s schedule. Ana (2), SJ, Chi (2), and Nash. 1 1 Quote

That wasn't UPLs fault either. That doesn’t explain the rest of the goals. UPL is not an NHL goalie and Sabres still don’t play defense. Quote

Yea dominated in the 3rd. I am frustrated with how slow we looked compared to NJ. We’re built in fairly similar fashion. I don’t think we need to be as good as NJ right now, but at times we didn’t look even comparable. But I’m not gonna freak out on the rest of the year until they start stringing together losses. Keeping those to a minimum means it a small win streak or two changes the dynamic very quickly. Quote

UPL is not an NHL goalie and Sabres still don’t play defense. It's tough to win with an AHL-lite goaltender. Tough bounces, but at some point a big frame like his has to be square with the puck hitting him. We lost due to sloppy turnovers, about six Skinner Grade A misses and because their goalie was a lot better than ours. Someone need to tell UPL he is allowed to stop breakaways. That goal showed ho damn slow he is 2 Quote

Definitely can see after 8 games that goaltending will be the problem again, as many could predict. Looks like UPL at home Sunday. We did not keep up in the 3rd period, we had some strong moments but Vanecek did enough to hold up, we didn’t test him enough. Bryson on Sunday is very possible and the hits keep coming. 1 Quote

The Haula breakaway was a perfect shot and the other goal UPL allowed was tipped also. Both not necessarily on him although you want him to stop the breakaway which like I said was a helluva shot. No need to chase another young goalie out if town just yet. 1 Quote
Sabres Super Fan Posted October 28, 2023 Report Posted October 28, 2023 Another loss to the New Jersey Devils to our former head coach Lindy Ruff who the Buffalo Sabres Terry Pegula should never have fired. Thank you Terry Pegula for driving our NHL franchise into ground. I am so thankful for Hockey Heaven. Oh and don’t forget we should be grateful in Buffalo that we have a NHL team blah, blah. Too these Buffalo fans that make excuses for Terry Pegula forever doesn’t it get old? What is the excuse when the Seattle Kraken, Atlanta Thrashers and the Houston Aeros win the Stanley Cup and the Buffalo Sabres are still trying to make the playoffs? The losses are piling up the Sabres need to move on from Don Granato he isn’t the coach with the answers. Onto the Colorado Avalanche game Sunday in my opinion. Go Sabres! Let’s Go Buffalo 1 1 Quote

The season so far is hardly a total disaster after they lost to mtl, gonna take a wild guess you had them losing to Ottawa as well? 1 Quote
