I agree with you.
Culture is a fad that is brought up by teams whom consistently suck.
However, the Pats won 3 Super Bowls in the early 2000’s and Brady ranked 14th in passer efficiency through 2001-2004 so saying it’s all because of him is false. The Patriots won 3 SB’s with average QB, strong running game, elite defences - Pegullaville

I know it's early, and I know Beane did well to keep the guys he wanted to keep, and I know money being spent so far in FA is crazy, but I still don't like how we're being shut out so far. Bring me a big new shiny toy already. This kind of sucks so far. - kritter65
Like how the Sabres brought in a bunch of shiny new toys?
There isn’t anyone on that list I would disagree with.
I don’t see why more people don’t understand the Risto issue. I like him played in the right position, with the right partner. He just isn’t going to be worth the next contract. Especially when that is the strength of our pipeline.
My biggest issue is trusting Kim n Co. to maximize the value for the trades. They can probably do ok with Staal and Monte. Maybe Miller. But beyond that, I have zero faith in them making deals that will actually be good for this team.
Adams did ok with Staal at the time. But look at the grigs, Tage and Eakins contracts. Big. Fat. Woof!!! I just want to see help for an inexperienced gm, I want to see the current know it all president on her yacht and I’d like to see an nhl caliber coach.
I won’t throw any names out there. I almost don’t care what the names are, except for McGuire, Milbury, Babcock, Roloston and Ralph....
The team needs help and the owners are more worried about the lifestyle.
Yes, Gerbe has asked for patients recently. And how can we not give him the benefit of doubt. Man, how can T.Pegs, as a self proclaimed Sabres homer, who cried when he bought the team, stomach what he sees on the ice. HIS team! HIS product.... His wife has destroyed... - Gr8daygo
Excellent post.
The girgensons contract-
How many other players signed deal's for less as ufa's?
11 even strength goals. 2.2 million seems reasonable
Same coach same system
Big league wide emphasis on 5 x 5 scoring.

People think this won’t get worse....or stay like this for long
We’re probably going to lose Hall, McCabe, Eichel, and possibly Reinhart within the next year
Hope Cozens is ready - sbroads24
You know Sbroads, you could be right.
Hopefully Kimmie can convince Hall that a teade at the TDL is fair.
That said, I'd be shocked if Adams' is able to extract anything near proper value for any asset traded.
And, at this point, the realization has hit me that the Sabres under current ownership and management will never come close to competing. They are a mockery, a beautiful combination of arrogance and ignorance resulting in extraordinary incompetence.

Truer words haven’t been written...
They can save it with a management change but I don’t know if they even realize that...

It's amazing that at no point in the past 10 years have the Sabres simply gotten lucky and had a team shoot like 13% or have a goalie post a .945 and luck their way in.
So idk. I don't really want to ask what a worse 10 years would look like because I'm sure it's possible but at the same time, how could any 10 year stretch be this dismal?
What does worse look like? I literally can't imagine
