Botts is gonna have to call Jack into the office and light a fire under his ass. Him not carrying us is not working, and he needs to step it up.

What an embarrassment this organisation is, year after year.

Jack, you've got to save my phoney baloney job!

We dominated?? I missed that entire period then.

Bruins had like 3 shots in 16 minutes. Yes we did.

This is a perimeter team with no heart, no toughness, a serious lack of talent with average goaltending compounded by a gm who’s gun-shy. Not good.

He’s playing for a contract. Do you think he’ll play like that after he gets 7 for 49?

rochester wins 4-3

leier scores the winner with 2 seconds left from pilut and mittlebust

Exhibit A of why I don't make a point to watch this team when I have any other entertainment options....

...an exercise in mediocrity at best

Tough to say. Just wanted to point it out because people like to call him soft which I think is unfair

McCabe has a point when he slammed his stick on the bench and said “I suck”!

Make sure we hit on our top 15 pick this year

Don’t frank up Cozens’ development

Move Risto for a top 6 forward

Let 3/4 of the UFA’s walk only bring back Larry

Thompson go back to Rochester and build chemistry with Mitts.

I’m still happy to be here.

The GM has stopped making his weekly appearances on the radio....

It's a situation where he's afraid to answer questions

That the Gyllenhaal movie?

This team blows.

Boring hockey.

Botts sat on his hands all summer and pulled a straight Darcy move in signing Johansson, a Right Wing, and then pumping him up all summer as a center.

Absolutely missed on Mittelstadt at this point.

He lost me after the 10-game win streak last season by not bringing in anyone to improve the team then but at this point I couldn't care less if he gets fired or not. Krueger, too.

It's pretty clear they can't inspire this group or light a fire under their asses. Bogosian, Ristolainen both requested to be traded, both get to play, neither change the dynamic of this team.

Reinhart is a wimpy perimeter player who is dragging Eichel down, IMO. He needs to be dropped down a line, at least to provide some balance in the top-6 but for some reason, he has been parked there for 5 years now and while his play stays the same, Eichel's keeps rising and a Rookie on the opposite wing is outplaying him.

Ullmark tops out as a high end backup [EDIT]. The time to turn 1st round picks into roster players has passed and is overdue. The team's culture is stagnant and complacent.

Keeping Scandella and Miller is a better move than keeping Ristolainen and McCabe, IMO. Ristolainen continues to play the same game he always has, and he supposedly refuses to play system hockey, Reinhart, too.

What a crappy product.

1 goal on our last 70 shots.

At this point the most reasonable thing to do is fire JB, let Sexton sell of the rentals, hire a VP of hockey ops and let that guy and Krueger hire a GM

You will not see a VP of hockey OPS as long as Pegula owns this team.

I trust Pegula. He picked the right people for the Bills. He'll get it right for the Sabres eventually. Gotta cut bait with this guy first
