jad1 Posted October 26 Report Posted October 26 1 minute ago, Porous Five Hole said: The last 13 years has nothing to do with the third period this afternoon. It already has impacted this game. The Sabres have shunned experienced coaching the last 13 years. The coaches that they did hire did not ingrain strong fundamental hockey into the core of young players on the team today. Instead they focused on individual development and life coaching. This has caused problems that we continue to see with Sabres playing today. On the first Wings goal, there were 3 Sabres behind the goal, and only one was challenging the puck, causing the Sabres to be outmanned in the slot. The 2nd goal, Dahlin was just outmuscled in front of his own net. On the shorthanded goal, Dahlin made a bone headed play on the point. These 3 plays are common to the Sabres general lack of urgency, structure and fundamentals that we have seen from the team last 13 years. And I was wrong to say the Sabres aren't addressing these issues. I believe the hiring of Ruff is a good attempt to address the issues. Fixing them is the next challenge. There is still a lot of work to do. 1 Quote

OverPowerYou Posted October 26 Report Posted October 26 Am I the only one that ever thinks that Ehrhoff signed with the sabres 10 years too early? We could really use him on our powerplay. He is the missing piece to our team. Ironically, we are still paying him. We need a player of his style. Quote

Marty made a great point about faceoffs earlier in the season in a game where the Sabres were winning over 60% of their faceoffs, but zero percent in the O zone on the PP and zero percent in the D zone on the PK. He said faceoffs are important when they’re important and I can’t agree more. 1 Quote

Most of us think Ehrhoff was a terrible signing and one of many low points in Sabre GM’ing. Edited October 26 by Pimlach Quote
