Watching it live in Chicago....we look like dog doo. Jack...WTF? Asplund, lazar and TT look like the only ones giving effort. 🙄

If we could get a 75% effort from Eichel on a consistent basis I would be ecstatic

We have a 9 mil winger we don’t play with the franchise center.
Instead he plays with 4th liners

Is completely inexcusable.

Should of just called Chicago on the phone and gave them the 2pts, why waste the plane trip

He’s pretty good

Literally he needs to just keep doing that

Botts to 75% of the players: “what, would you say, you do here”?

I think you meant Kim to Jason

Dahlin is so far away from being an actual #1 defenseman. He can’t defend, can’t clear the front of the net. Passes well and that’s about it so far. You’re not a #1 because you pass well.

I know he’s 19, I know he’s in a sophomore slump, but he just doesn’t look like a generational player yet. Not even close. He actually looks very bad defensively.

Mittelstadt doesn’t do much of anything most games. He has obvious skill, we just rushed him out of desperation and his development is stunted from it. Out of pride they’ll keep him up here and pretty much ruin a top pick. He will never reach his potential because of the management’s failure in properly developing him. If they are planning to play him they should at least give him some good wingers. I would love to be proven wrong about this, but as all of you I have seen it so many times with this organization this past decade.

Olofsson has an NHL shot and is otherwise a marginal NHL talent. Now that teams have figured out to guard his shot on the PP his numbers will drop. I would trade him immediately while he still has value. Take away his PP numbers and he will produce 4th line production with top line minutes.

I like that they are trying Girgensons with Eichel and Reinhart right now when they actually scored.

“That’s a heck of a team over there...”

71 continuing to create just cant bury one

That dude seems to be the only one that tries on a consistent basis. Heck. He has the Sabres last 5 goals

How much more does he need to do?

He needs to go

Wow. Botts has work to do! I better not hear “injury” excuse. Okposo and podracer don’t count. I’ll give you 0.5 excuse for mojo.

Other than that, pathetic performance coming off the game last night.

Also have the assists on those goals

Is the pressure higher on any other player in the league than on #9? It’s honestly ridiculous at this point.

It shouldn't surprise anyone at this point that if Skinner, Eichel and Reinhart cant create a win by themselves, the Sabres lose

It's an utterly flawed roster design

He needs to go
- jcragcrumple

I can't wait until they fire him, and the next GM comes in and takes 3 years to remake this team, and then we'll be calling for his head, and the (frank)ing "merry goes round and round and round..."

If we could get his effort form last night on a consistent basis, others would follow

Sadly, don't see Lazar, Asplund nor Tage doing much.
For quite some time.

Well he took the merry go round for 3 spins and added 1 good forward. I would have liked Fletcher to replace him, but he's not available. Idk who is, but this has to change

Yup it definitely is. Same old core with the same results for the last 3-4 years.

Risto
McCabe
Bogo
Girgs
Lockport

We know who they are and what they bring. They don’t do anything

Now now the Sabres are still “Learning about those guys” and what they bring.

Every team’s game plan: “who do we stop”? #9. “Anybody else”? “No”.

PUT 53 WITH 9!

Dahlin could probably use a night in the press box if we are going to carry all these dmen why not. However he looked as advertised plenty of times last season.

Olofsson is a rookie that has 14pts in 19 games, what are you going on about?

I wonder if management knows all this.
