When Do the Sabres Win Again?

[Flashsabre]

Caps, Leafs, Habs, Leafs, Bruins, Isles, Hawks, Blues, Stars to finish out 2024.

How many (if any) games do the Sabres win?

Realistically 2-7 at this point is my prediction. Beat the Hawks and take one from the Leafs.

If their early season were to be believed, it'd be WWLWLLLLW.

If their recent stretch is any indication, LLWLLLLLL.

When does Dahlin come back? It will be L's until he does.   Even then , it may take him a few games to get back to 100%, just like at the beginning of the season.   

[Indabuff]

Hopefully soon.   I'm running out of Sesame Street number gifs.

Never

Do we know what the injury is or timeline?

This wasn’t hard to predict. Not enough top end talent. Too young. 80-85 points at best.

When does Dahlin hand in his ‘ C ‘ ? The pressure for him will be intense if he comes back into a losing streak. 

[Andrew Amerk]

They’ll win one of the games that they are not supposed to, and lose the rest. 

[Berg]

Doesn't matter..Another year without playoffs 

[PerreaultForever]

I doubt they beat the Caps unless the Caps have a really off night and play their back up etc. It happens. 

It won't shock me if they score big against the Leafs though. They seem to have the ability to suck the Leafs into wide open run and gun games and often come out on top, even when they sucked against everybody else.

…… the day after Adams is fired or Pegula sells the team, whichever comes first.  

[SABRES 0311]

 

Tuesday, December 17 against Montreal.

[mansquito]

Simply put... The change in coach proves what a terrible job Adams did and putting a team together. (I know obvious) Sorry, we need to start trading most of the garbage including the Captain... Don't care if he wins a cup somewhere else, he's a man-child right now, not deserving of the C.

Again, fix the power play.

 

30th ranked pp. No PP goals in last..well, however long its been, and all loses.

 

NY converted their first PP and never looked back. We didn't, and looked back

[Carmel Corn]

It may take UPL having a Superman game where he steals one for us…we win 1-0

For some strange reason I had a line from the Springsteen song Rosalita in my head this morning. "Someday we'll look back on this and it will all seem funny."

We didn't even get a SOG on that first PP.  Could have taken a early lead but instead they show no urgency.

I get what you are saying... but over a 1/3 of the way into the season I think they need to have an amazing finish to the season to get 59 points in in 53 games...I am realistically thinking that this is a 70pt team at best... but you never know..

I was never a big Thomas Vanek fan, but we sure could use a guy like that now. Goes to the front of net, great hands for tipping, shooting, faking and passing. (I don't think he was worth four first rounders, but still) 

 

Fix the PP and things will get better. I remember when we traded for Gary Galley just for this reason, and he was ok.

But now you're sad, your mama's mad
And your papa says he knows that I don't have any money

Tuch used to do that "whooo!" thing after wins.  That's been muted of course.  Just slowly sapping the love of the game from Tuch.  He loved it here but even he has no answers or solutions.

Hey! 

 

Maybe someday we will look back on this and it will all seem funny!
