Glad I skipped this one. Loss number 13. That’s impossibly terrible. 

[GASabresIUFAN]

From playoff slot to lottery favorite in 26 days.

I don’t think I’ve ever seen a team collapse so quickly and so completely.

I’m glad I’ve stopped watching.   

I’m not sure what is worse, the Sabres or the 1st rd of the college CFP.

Holy $hitsky I just seen we are last place in the league!

One loss closer to ka getting fired. Should have happened 2-3 years ago but surely his days are numbered.

Doesn't sound like it.   Feels like this nimrod is gonna be around long enough to be doing shots of Ensure at his local watering hole before he's gone.

It’s like they’re tanking without trying.

[PerreaultForever]

They could have won that game. Bruins were bad, as I thought they might be in this obvious trap scenario, so with a little effort and spunk it was there for the taking, but they were anemic as usual. Bruins didn't have to do much to win it. 

Really bad hockey game all around.

Oh they are trying.  Each player is trying to get themselves traded out of town.

It definitely looks that way doesn't it?

I watched the Ottawa Vancouver game after and Senators were scrapping, blocking shots, diving for loose pucks, puck battles on both sides, net front on both sides, enthusiasm and energy all around. Ottawa being everything we hoped we would be this year.

What. A. Shitshow this organisation is.

Yep. Not every move Sens management has made has worked, but they make an obvious attempt not just to make slight upgrades on the edges of the roster but to support t their young players by addressing critical needs (see goaltending). Adams is content to upgrade the 4th line.

Maybe in these 1 goal deficits play 5 on 5 right to the end.  these guys don’t have success doing the 6 on 5 thing and it’s just a gift goal for the opponents all the time.

I recommend the Rifftrax version. Watching without commentary is like watching the Sabres and there is only so much of that one can take.

[bob_sauve28]

Well, we sure are finding creative ways to lose games, that's for sure.

 

 

[bob_sauve28]

This goal should not have counted

Dont hold your breath. What first timer will Pegula install then?  It’s just a vicious cycle

Yup. Lots of mistakes over the years in Ottawa but they were never content to stand pat and wait. They have a better balanced roster and better leadership than the Sabres, not more talent. Ullmark's actually a leader as well and he's getting quite popular there. Ullmark in the list of Adams' mistakes.

I am excited, I think they can do. As long as Lindy can keep them playing like this it will be achieved.

Terry Pegula you are a terrible owner. Talking hockey here you somehow fluked into an incredible situation in football but as a hockey owner you suck so bad. Its really incredible how bad you treat Buffalo hockey fans and lovers of good hockey everywhere. Its a diservice to the game. Its almost criminal what you have done to this once proud franchise.
