He just turned 21, not even a month ago. Get him a Partner that can play and mentor him.

You know... Seriously... I think this team just needs a whole new coaching staff, except Granato. His staff just sucks...

So what is it? Monkey see monkey do? Because Dahlin sucked in his second year then Power has to?

No actually it took Hedman 4-5 years to reach his potential.

sometimes it takes even longer for defensemen.

Did you not know that?

Like I just said above.... I really think the Sabres issues lie in the assistant coaching staff... the rest of the stuff I am saying is frustration

I agree also Adams should have never given him 8m a season that was ridiculous.

Agreed, would definitely replace Wilford and Ellis or atleast try and see if Connelly with take over PP duties or consult atleast.

I can never remember the name of their D coach. That probably says something.

Dahlin benefited from a well respected defensive HC and assistant.

Maybe Granato should talk to McDermott about firing assistants.... Made a bit of a difference for the Bills

Cody stop by to pick up his last buy out check

Wilford

Benson will be the best player to ever wear #9 for the Sabres.

So fun to watch and he can’t even drink legally anywhere in North America yet.

Does anyone think the Sabres offensive issues this season begin in the D zone? Their technique and positioning just seems to be way off...

You could put him with Larry Robinson in his prime, and Power would still be a cream puff. Too many on this thread get butt hurt because some of us speak the truth. “He’s only a sophomore… he doesn’t have a capable partner… he’s only a few years out of college… blah blah blah. He was seen as a difference maker, 1st overall pick and now making 8.3 million and he is not a difference maker at all, most times he’s a liability.

Steve Smith was D coach

Will forget his name tomorrow.

Unfortunately I was looking into reasons why our Defense sucks. And his Name just kept coming up, can't forget it know.

3-0. Penalties. Refs gonna even up that? Seems we’ve had minimal PP opps last few games

Right. Donnie finds NHL experience too threatening, so we get guys no one has ever heard of.

Is tage ever going to do anything?

He’s been horrendous this year.

He was never gonna be a physical player, it was all over his scouting reports. Dahlin was seen as Generational. Jesus give these guys proper coaching and the right Mentors and maybe Dahlin doesn't look like sh!t for the first 4yrs. Don't care if your drafted 1st or 200th, bad run teams can make anyone look bad or help that player reach there potential. Sabres don't do that.

Amazing how things happen when people are in front
