Jersey's that should be retired: Kaleta, Ellis, Ott, Weber, Kennedy. Guys who suck and should be run out of town immediately: Turgeon, Mogilny, Vanek, Briere, Drury. Sabres gon' sabres. Jack to Boston in 5...4...3.......

I agree with you about all but, Drury wanted out, 100%. They wanted him and he wanted out, Briere wanted to stay but they didn't want him.

Drury as our new GM! Or President of Hockey Ops

Great hockey mind

Pegula walks out on 1st floor Key Bank Center with:

Housley - Coach

Drury - President of Hockey Dept or GM? TM is a great scout, not sure about managing a NHL team

Nolan/LaFontaine show!

True. The larger point is that people fall in love with scrubs and we treat our stars like crap.

Because you can't coach effort. Those guys didn't give 100%.

Thoughts no one will care about:


Last night was the last draw for me. Getting so brutally outplayed and hanging the goaltender out to dry regularly is ridiculous. They were on pace at one point to give up 112 shots. They've lost 9 of 11 contests and have a coach who thinks benching Jack Eichel regularly is prudent.

Long story short this organization is nothing short of a joke. It's an AHL team with Jack Eichel. For a GM with the resources he has to field something this bad unacceptable. This team needs to earn me back as a fan. They need a real NHL coach and possibly a new GM. Someone who doesn't blow hot air like Rex Ryan and someone who takes the job seriously.

On a serious note, I'd like to see what would happen with Zemgus if Bylsma is replaced. It was just weird the trajectory of that guy, sure he was over valued by the fan base prior to Disco Dan but his decline was precipitous once he took over.

I don't know, but I'm curious.

Bailey, Moulson, and Deslauriers are the only forwards who had less shifts than Eichel last night. Is this because we're so good that we can afford to bench our best player because he's young and made a mistake? Is this because our coach is so good that his message to the players is only not being received by the best player? You go Bylsma! Show Eichel who is boss of this disaster of a team. His benching worked so well that the rest of the team scored exactly zero goals. Thanks Bylsma.

Yep = Buffalo Superstars who had more ice time than Jack last night:

ROR
Kane
Gionta
Foligno
Reinhart
Girgensons

- Buffalo--Sabres

disagree


kane, ror, okposo, reinhart, ennis, girgens, foligno, eichel, gionta

with those 9 players up front, it's inexcusable to be under .500

esp with risto, mccabe

and gorges and franson are fine if plying 16 minutes a night


the coach sucks

the gm's moves to address the D has SUCKED


fire them both

if they can the coach

I am fine bringing girgens back for 3rd line and letting larsson go/trade

gus has more speed and e rod has proven he can be the 4th line center IMO next year


this team needs to get faster quick
