You want to know what a bad captain looks like? Go watch a Washington game. That's a bad captain. Pominville isn't even close to being a bad captain.

A.O. is the worst Captain in the league.

What the hell is wrong with you guys, are you all nuts or something? Stop with the negative posts and whining, all is good in sabreland, we got 2 girls named Lindy and Darcy at the controls, they'll right the ship. Calm down!!! Now who wants a popcicle?

I'd trade staff and myers for him though if ruff was not our coach

I think they should trade for him because Ruff is our coach. I'm sure that would be enough to get him fired. God knows AO has managed to go through enough of them so far in Washington.

What is the deal with Grigorenko getting scratched even though his family is in from Russia? That's not a good sign.

I think lindy was worried matching him up vs Pitts

I haven't posted on here in ages I just like to read the comments but something has been pissing me off lately and its Miller's erratic out of position play in net.


One second he's totally stealing the game and the next he's flopping around a la Hasek but in piss poor form

example from today: 2nd pens goal puck caroms of end wall and hes so far out of the net he cant get back in time for crosby to tuck it into the net.


example from last mtl game: flailing around 3-4 feet past the crease and on his a$$ not even remotely trying to get up and the take a couple hacks at it and finally bury it



my point is corsi desperately needs to tell him to stay back in his net and not get overly aggressive at all times.....he does that and hes back to his Vezina ways

Yes. Please explain to me why Jochen Hecht had more ice time than Foligno?


That should not be happening. Ever.

- HAMgerber

solid honest assessment

I will take it a half step further, corsi needs to tell enroth not to play so far back in the net

I think an upgrade is needed at the goalie coach

Yet you want to trade a guy that's supposed to possess all the leadership skills you could possibly ask for.

Now I'm really confused.
- HonkFortheGoose

Miller?
I don't WANT to trade him
But I can't see any way that he'd re-sign here
Do u?

No. Girgensons. You're complaining we don't have any leadership here, yet you're ready to throw away the guy that could be a captain. But he's garbage. So we'll just throw him out with the trash.

Well, I'm probably going overboard...
But i think a message needs to be sent
I actually do think Pommer is a bad captain
I frankly don't see much LEADERSHIP from any of the guys wearing letters on our team
Vanek & Pommer are both good PLAYERS
There's absolutely no arguing that

I frankly don't think we have anyone on the roster worthy of being captain besides Miller, and that's not allowed
- jdfitz77

Pommer has one bad game and hes a bad captain ? Some people like him some dont thankfully the fans dont chose.He probably had the worst game of his career today so I think thats a bit harsh.I did notice he seemed to be having a game with Crosby all day Im wondering if it was on purpose to divert the attention off Vanek.All in all great game against a team we typically have trouble with and mirror in alot of ways.Crosby called the game an even one Id agree.

It doesn't do any good to change the people, the people need to change.

my response

To be honest, I don't think much of anything you've had to say lately.

That being said, you don't care. And I'm sure Pommer doesn't care about what you have to say either.
- HonkFortheGoose

Im Frustrated
This team has tons of problems right now
Ate any of them the way Pommer or Vanek plays?
No, I'm not stupid
But I do think sweeping changes need to be made
ESP if the coach isn't gonna be fired

What would u have done?

Also, is anyone else bothered by what our 2nd powerplay unit consists of?



Today I saw gerbe with ott and maybe ennis. No problem with ennis but GERBE and OTT? Come on Thats insane



Absolutely loved Ott's game today but to me he just doesn't belong on a powerplay unit. Granted, we don't have many other options but I think those two should've at least been substituted for Foligno and Staff



and yes, I'm aware that Foligno hasn't been producing lately

He s been doing that his whole career here still we dont have anything better.He s no Hasik and alot of time his D isnt given credit for clearing that puck that almost goes in.

Trust me, I'm just as frustrated as you are. I pay a lot of money to watch this mess that is currently the Buffalo Sabres. The last thing I'm going to do though is say that Pommer shouldn't have the C and Vanek should be stripped of the A. Those guys have not been the problem all season, so why are you barking about them?

How about Drew Stafford who's making $4 mil to have 1 goal this year. Or the fact that Jochen Hecht is a terrible player, yet had more ice time than Foligno did.

That's on the coach. He's not managing this team well, and that's what he's getting paid to do.

He needs to go. Period. There's no question to that. His time is up.

Those two players combined for a goal today.

And Ott's first of the year was on the PP.
