It just feels that way because a rube was in charge for like 15 something years. and the guy after was even worse.

The current GM may or may not be good, but the cause and effect isn't backwards. some fake culture problem isn't what's making this team bad. They put together a bad hockey team and now everyone is moping. Remember, at one point they thought they were legit.

The Kings won 2 championships with a core that was made up of dudes hopped up on narcotics, binge drinkers, abusers, problem children and guys who couldn't speak english. They were a dominant possession team in an era where teams ignored it and they prospered. Oh and Darryl Sutter of all people was their coach

There are a lot of complications with building a championship team, especially in hockey with the hard cap and injuries, but the method behind it is pretty standard across all sports.

But, but, but Eichel is spoiled. We'll never win with him.

Schopp killing it on GR. Sabres had the player to fill their biggest glaring need and chose to get rid of him.

What a putz of a GM. He f'd this team up, made them an embarrassment and sat back and did nothing but watch it implode. Cause for termination. Maybe he can spend an entire draft on D-men again. Get that bum out of here. Today.

Didn't say it was.

People want to point fingers, want to know why in nearlyb50 years the organization has a horrible reputation save for say 10 - 15 years all told...and really poopty over last 8 especially.

The whole organization is dysfunctional and the Pegula's are at the top of the hill, unable to fix it but keep trying the same things over and over again. Are they the whole problem, nope...but they shoulder all of it and should.

I, and it seems many more, are so disenchanted with the whole organization that hope of fixing it seems to be insurmountable. The organization is lost and the ownership is too proud to properly hand it off to competent people. They can't get out if their own way. It sure seems like a lost cause for sure.

2 points behind us but only 2 games left, we have 3; two against teams NEARLY as bad as us. DET and OTT. LA is 5 points behind us with 4 to play. They play a Calgary team tonight who is basically playing their AHL tesm.

Jersey 2 points back now and just took the lead in the ROW. I know what I’m cheering for. Sabres to get to the highest draft position mathematically possible at this point and watch 3 teams that passed them in the standings win the lottery. F off. That’s what u get. That’s what you deserve.

You have issues.

No, really. You do.

You need to find another team to follow.

Today might honestly be the worst ever.
