I could only imagine what he is feeling emotionally right now. However you can’t mope around and show it as often as he does.
- Pegullaville

That the problem in a nutshell. Culture in Buffalo will never change with him acting like this and if he can’t turn the page then he is the problem and he must go at some
Point

mccabe just plain sucks

girgens, vesey, okposo are all useless


botts boy hutton did a nice job imitating laline last night

embrace the tank

Botts sitting back and doing nothing again...how surprising.... NOT. this waiting until the draft is getting really old other teams turn around in three years we are going on 10...

Unfortunately, I don't believe "the tank" is being done on purpose this time.

Yup and I agree that the helmet was used as a weapon. Suspend him for the year or more. Even players on twitter are mad about it
- Sabretooth9

agreed, I don't thing I've ever see anything in a football game so utterly dumb.

I very rarely chirp about the ref's but last night in OT was a joke. Risto gets picked up by the legs and tackled right in front of the ref and both players get 2 mins?

“I will be watching #Sabres50  with eager anticipation in days to come. Botterill has to trade a D. Ducks sent their director pro scoutung and scout to BUF tonight. Stars had their AGM, scout in BUF. Rangers and Habs two scouts each. Devils, Jets, Blues, Flames in attendance again”

Well Garth is good for one thing. Interesting tidbit here.
- Pegullaville

Nothing will happen.

Yes he should. Totally unacceptable. Shame that Pouncey will probably be suspended too for standing up for his QB after Ruldolph got conked on the head by his own helmet.
- Wetbandit1

Just crazy.....I actually couldn't believe I saw that happen... another couple inches and he could have killed Ruldolph. Pouncey should get one game Garrett should get the rest of the year at min.

Our sports teams are in a horrible downwards spiral so I predict the Dolphins will beat us this week. Best (only ?) move they've done all year was bench Rosen.

Are we supposed to be happy with the point? We really had no business getting one.

Trade I hope

if there is truly going to be a defense rotation and mccabe doesnt sit tomorrow he has some serious bench armor

also maybe waive vesey

If we go something like 5-11-5 in these 21 games what happens with the roster and/or coach and GM???

Lazar was a breath of fresh air last night. Eichel slamming doors and maturity is a huge concern to me. All of the off season interviews I heard with Eichel this was brought up and he acknowledged it’s a huge part of his game he needs to really work on. I don’t see it getting better anytime soon. I really fear he is the problem.
He is the best talent we have had in Buffalo in a couple generations but I fear he is the problem as well. I will give him a pass this year but not after that.
If he can’t learn to lead, make him a 2c and get us a 1c or feel out the market.

Trade I hope

Larsson appears to be the injury.

They are still “learning who this team is”

Be patient. Says Botterill.

I am back on the “I can’t wait to see this Sabres player play” bandwagon. Since this team isn’t good

I’m excited to see how asplund does!

I want to like him, and defended him even as late as yesterday, but his pre-game interview really didn't sit well with me. He might be in over his head. He's great with the cap, but when it comes to putting together a championship caliber roster, I'm just not sure he knows how to do it.

Murray always sounded great in interviews and he was lousy. I think its not a reach at all to say Botts just interviews like a robot and gives nothing away on purpose.

I’ve been there since the off season ended.

I knew this team wasn’t great and they touted this coach will really make the difference.

This coach would be the guy to finally right the Risto ship and put him in the right position.

His prized off season trade (this offseason) was a healthy scratch.

Botts or any gm isn’t going to say on the radio

“Hey my offense sucks”

Or

“Hey I know Risto and McCabe sucks right now and they can’t pass”

And so on
