Truly embarrassing.

Add in very weak goaltending. Comries stuck is off the ice in lala land.

Keep the stick down and guess what. That’s a save.

Not sure if I’m sold on Power. He would land us most of what we need via trade

I found this kind of interesting. I don't watch college hockey. Do they really not like checking?

Owen Power needs to take note of how his more experienced teammates, particularly Rasmus Dahlin and Erik Johnson, use brute force to kill plays. Too often, Power loses a battle along the wall or in front of the net. He’s listed at 6-foot-6, 221 pounds, yet he doesn’t always play like a big, mobile defenseman. It’s important to remember that Power was told by his coaches at Michigan not to hit as often as he should. A player his size will be routinely penalized by Big Ten officials cracking down on body checks. Power shouldn’t be pushed around like he did on the Red Wings’ second goal, when Fabbri earned inside leverage before getting to the puck around the Sabres’ crease.

If they have to make a coaching change before Donnie's extension even kicks in and extending all the assistants while letting Peca walk, that's going to be some serious egg of KA's face.

Is playing Clifton + EJ on the coach or GM? In this case, gotta be both.

Per Lance:

Sabres’ lines/pairs with Dahlin and Okposo absent, plus Jack Quinn wearing a noncontact jersey:

Skinner-Mittelstadt-Thompson
Benson-Cozens-Peterka
Jost-Krebs-Quinn
Rosén-Biro-Olofsson

Power - Samuelsson
Ryan Johnson - Erik Johnson/Clifton
Bryson - Jokiharju

Who is choosing not to play Ryan Johnson on, or giving virtually no minutes to young players, instead giving minutes to veteran bums?

Well Kyle we think it's time for you to hand the Rheins to Dahlin and maybe take over Stick Taper the rest of the year.

There's a clause in Granato’s contract that upon termination, he has to finish the remainder of contract length as a steward on the SS Lifestyle. They'll get their money's worth

Run roh.

>>> Rasmus Dahlin is dealing with a lower-body injury.

The Sabres are still evaluating him to determine his status for Thursday in Boston and next steps.

Has he ever extended a coach with 2 years left on his deal? What a strange move for an owner who is sick of paying his ex-coaches.

Okposo not in practice, UPL still sick, Dahlin LBI. Great. Sounds like Okposo just resting his old man body

I cant wait for some wonder kids to come into management positions in the NHL and set it ablaze.

WHY IS MAKING A TRADE TREATED LIKE ITS ROCKET SCIENCE???

The NBA throw players are like its nothing. Now we have 3 months of Matt Dumba speculation. You gotta be kidding me.

I miss the days of:

1. Housley for Hawerchuk
2. Turgeon for Patty Lala.

Cozens, Power, Levi, Skinner (cap reasons) and two first for McD and Nurse
