It’s just insane that the bar is as low as being physically watchable without having to change the channel and then immediately vomiting

You're right, it is insane that we are back at this point (again). I still think the future is bright. I just hope the losing doesn't damage the kids too much.

Yeah, it's shocking by the standard of the United States, but I really think hes going.

The only way he goes is if he quits and he said he is not quitting. He is not getting removed.

Yes, the people wow have a tolerance to losing.

I think everyone understands that but 10 years of losing creates the fans bashing.

They should be over it half way through the season where we knew what to expect. Its not like we're battling for playoffs and we just layed an egg.

Last nights game, seriously the top 10 worst ever.

The slight enjoyment of watching upl and Quinn's debut lasted only 20 minutes.

Actually left with 5 minutes left in the game. Complete rarity.

does anyone cut the team a bit of slack considering guys out with COVID and we played TBay and the fact we aren’t a deep team to begin with.
- Sabres1523

No, they are a bad hockey team and will be treated as such.

I watch to watch the young guys and to watch Dahlin.

Dahlin is really turning the corner, hasn't given the puck away as much(was a big concern for me) and is making good decisions.

I get that but the reaction of the blog suggests that there were some sort of expectations for the team to preform.
I’m certainly not happy with the effort last night but compared to previous years I’ve found the team to be entertaining to watch for the most part (minus last night of course).

Boris: "I thought it was a work event."

Labor leader: "His excuse is he didn't know it was a party!"

MPs: "Shame!"

Parliament is so much fun. Whips CSPAN'S ass.

For going to a party? Demorats do it all the time. Even AOC got covid, no one cares its just a smoke screen. Labour party is a dumpster fire. Boris isn't going anywhere.

It felt like a kid's recital after about 15 minutes into the 1st.

A lot of the games are fun because the opposing team brings in star players.

Why would the players fight for the team when the GM and owners don’t?

It’s a disgrace now more than ever.

Sadly the game was on here in Ontario last night. I turned it off at 3-0 and watched something else with my wife. I was thinking about Zemgus Girgensons last night after he had a pretty good shift. What a sad career for someone like him. Drafted into this and now with no hope of seeing success. He would be a solid piece for any team challenging for the cup.

Add to this news of Eichel skating with the Knights, and I just feel numb about this team. What an absolute sh*tshow this has been for the past 10 years. The ineptitude is remarkable really.

I love how he just demolishes any young MP trying to say anything. There's something to be said for a Parliamentary system. They keep party members in line.

Why are we still talking about a 1C. That will be one of the last pieces to be put into the puzzle. Build a franking team first.

Well sure,
but don’t u think we ran our course with Jack?
He wanted out
I guess we could’ve told him too bad & kept him
But if we couldn’t build a good team with a happy Jack,
chances of doing so with an unhappy superstar center would’ve been even more unlikely imo
