I think their transition game has gotten a lot better...I like the support in the defensive zone and like the fact that they're doing short, crisp passing for a breakout instead of going for the stretch-pass home run every time...some of the work I've seen the last few games in this department has been real strong, and that includes the last game against sjs...
it's come a long way, imo, but they'll need to do it more consistently - Michael Pachla
Yeah i should've mentioned it is better but the way housley wants it..it has to be good to great. Botts will help get it there.
yeah it's not enough to be fast skating. Gotta think fast, pass fast and accurate. I like what Housley is going for, but you need much better passing than what's currently happening. - Sabresfan-365
I definitely don't think any of this is Housleys fault. He inherited the bad team

I don't know that they're bad (like real bad). it's already been mentioned a bunch but this is all new stuff to housley too. He'll get better at it and help identify who fits and who doesn't.
Think I actually PMd both of you, I dont know if kaiser got it but yea I'm around. My fathers health took a turn for the worse so moved back home and been dealing with some family things but it's getting better. - Sabresfan-365
Best of luck.... Hope he continues getting better!
today is November 1...we are 12 games into the season...
they're 3-3-1 after starting out 0-4-1
just sayin - Michael Pachla
Good point, I think our expectations have risen every year. Now we need to put aside the negative and continue to move forward. They have only played 12 games
