Flagged by accident.

Agreed, what do you do with Benson, R. Johnson, Levi?

- washedup20


Benson- in my mind remains in Buffalo. I think he has something special to be a top six player.
Johnson- the same as Benson. I see him as a legitimate top 4 defenseman
Levi- send him to Rochester and let him start as many games as he can handle. He could be a difference maker in goal for the Americans.

Keep payroll low and hope for the best

i dont really think money has anything to do with it. they did well and got lots of assets tearing down. got competitive fast on the rise up.

they did the first two parts really good. baffling that the finalize the roster to be a serious competitor has just, not existed?

so the plan is hoard picks and prospects and hope they all fit in somewhere.

since benson is stuck here now, go all in with the kids

You know that will never happen under Donny. I want them all returned to AHL or JR if it’s still an option. They will get completely sucked into this loser culture. They will also not get the appropriate playing time, as Donny refuses to bench the actual problems.

Levi to AHL to finish out the season, back to Buffalo for a few garbage games after.
Johnson back to AHL and activate Bryson.
Benson to JR if it’s not too late, or Rochester if possible. Only call up the more seasoned guys to cover injuries.
Oloffson needs to be in the lineup full time at this point if we have any hope of moving him.

Yes. Unfortunately, Tage going down was the final nail in the coffin. Need to fire this GM and coach

I should have prefaced that by saying if Benson and Johnson don’t get the minutes they should, then send them back to junior or Rochester ( in Johnson’s case).

promoting coaches and gm's from losing franchises makes zero sense and hardly ever works

How do you do that when Benson and R. Johnson have probably been 2 of the best players on the team when they played. And why break up Kulich and Rosen for this game, they have been tearing it up together and had No practice time with the big club. Should have put them with Krebs or Cozens and let them just play. They know each others tendencies, not the player's on the Sabres.

I’ve said that same thing numerous times since the season began. I was ridiculed for my views, but if this team continues to have outings like last night… something will have to be done. When I saw what Adams did and didn’t do during the offseason… I had a feeling this team was destined to fail, just didn’t think it would be so dramatic and pathetic

Won’t matter with Terry as President and Owner…. Fire Adams and Meatball and you will get Karamonos as GM and Okposo as head coach.

If we had a coach that could manage this situation, I’d agree but we don’t

Yes it's coaching, but the players need to commit to, consistent effort shouldn't be a problem, and it is at this point.

Current leadership:



Terry needs to make a Flint Michigan Mega bowl trophy to compete for.

I agree 100% on effort but they are lost. It’s got to be taxing mentally when nothing seems to work
