Back to back nights playing like they don't have a full roster is going to slow them down.

Yes that means he’s gone after this year and you can scratch him

Still no issues with the signing

- Sabretooth9

Yes and waste a roster spot and Cap space.

He’s been lost under the revolving door, try and play defense first system

Their woeful, pitiful power play looked the same last season, but it was bailed out by Tage one timers. Now that teams are focused on that, the power play is an abomination, and it looks like the coaching staff is lost as to making any changes.

Banking on Ryan Johnson being nhl ready at game 1 was a bet Adams didn’t want to bank on

Easy to be the gm now and say that

I would have never signed him in the 1st place, has nothing to do with Banking on Ryan Johnson

Lindy has coached more playoff games since he was fired from the Sabres than the combined players who have played in Buffalo have played since his departure.

Admit your mistake and put your best team on the ice. Very simple in theory, but apparently our astute management finds it necessary to assemble a team that is quickly resembling a squad with zero continuity. This is where we all will see the errors in GMKA’s approach. We currently have 4-5 regulars who shouldn’t be, all because of our highly touted pipeline of talent that isn’t ready for the rigors of the NHL.

Sabres and bills both being held back by head coaching. I’ll never forgive McDermott for 13 seconds and granato’s idiotic roster useage this year is mind boggling

The fact that his on ice play has been bad is not reason enough to have an issue with the signing...?

We're OK with signing bad players?

Sabres liked him enough to give him a $1.25M signing bonus to make sure they got their man.

16:21 for Okposo is absurd. Just inexcusable

WTF are we doing here...?!?!

>>> This is going to sound harsh but I don’t know a nicer way of saying it. The Sabres have four players in their lineup this evening that are hurting them more than helping them. For those keeping track at home, that’s too many!

>>> There is absolutely no reason Kulich shouldn’t be called up and replace one of these guys.

>>> Since January 1st (Around the time teams started manning up Tage) the Sabres powerplay is 27th in xGF/60 and 25th in GF/60

How many more months does the staff need to put together an effective powerplay?

And he has 3 fking assist this year and is getting PP2 time. Great, he's a locker room leader but he's a gdf anchor. Leadewr - great - make him a fkn assistant coach
