AGAIN...
if Lines 2 & 3 were scoring up to par,
we wouldn’t even notice the MINOR drop off in scoring from our line4 to others

Larsson & Girgs are -7 & -8
That’s not bad at all considering the defensive minutes they get
Jack is a -3

Overplaying bad players is everything wrong with this coaching staff

That's kind of where I am coming from as well. Over the past few years, we have hired (everyone gets excited - see Blysma and Housley) and then run them out of town (Blysma and soon Housley) in the hopes that the next great coach will magically solve our problems. If we had coach Q coaching these clowns, do you think the results would be significantly different than now? Is it Housley's fault when Bogoo throws a pass up the middle or Hunwick makes a bad pinch? Where does the accountability start and end? To me, it starts with the individual. 3 coaches in 5-years with the same relatively crappy results suggests to me that we have a bunch of lunk-heads wearing Sabres uniforms. Either they can't or they won't follow a game plan.

I am no apologist for Housley. I just don't think there would be that much of a difference with a new coach at the helm.

Idk I kind of feel that a respected and winning coach like Q could have squeezed a few extra wins out of these slugs. And a few extra at this point would have us in the playoff hunt. Also have to think there would be more thought put towards the lineups and who's being scratched on a nightly basis.

Or maybe Housley is already getting as much as he can out of this group..

Pretty much

I think the players that matter long term have made progress.

Skinner has proved to be an excellent winger for Eichel

Dahlin is fantastic

Reinhart has been great

Mittelstadt has improved if only marginally

Pilut was handled poorly


My only question is did Housley get better? Did Botterill?

Coaching is a legit concern
- sbroads24

They handled Pilut about as good as they did Antipin.

The entire coaching staff is garbage but Botterill thinks differently. And he didn't even know fans were upset with the gum chewer. We're doomed.

so Phil and Botts did not learn from Antipin, got it


side note, Antipin leads his team in scoring from d men, 28 points in 58 games this season in the KHL

They also put Okposo on a plane when he had a concussion. They are a bunch of dumb dumbs.

Antipin got a raw deal.

Botts won't fire Housley but I sure hope they dump Hajt and Payne.

Eh. Let’s see if they continue this massive fall. He might have to

Only think to look forward to is

Jack - 96 points
Skinner 45 goals
Dahlin - 50 points
- gerbe75pts

This should be the aforementioned players goal...maximize their production...go for it.

They have misused various players all season.
As an example, Jack was hurt, so hey, let's put our, at the time, 13th forward up as 1C...not, let's see what Mitts can do to determine if they could be successful breaking up the top line and find secondary scoring.
Playing crappy aged vets, misplaying Tage's development...Christ it is a poop show.
I'm expecting Montour to be the 7th D soon.

She needs to get the F out of the way.
Go pick out the new seat colors fof the reno.
Pegula...rich fans who think they are smarter than everyone else...meanwhile their PSE organization is challenging Edmonton for biggest sports embarrasements ever.
