02-03 Sabres were a joke just like this squad.

They didn't win their 6th game til game 25.


Their tenth win came in game 40.

If Ott was that good of a leader, he wouldn't need a letter on his shirt for guys to listen to him and respect him and they wouldn't look as bad as they do.

He's not the leader you think he is either. He's a good secondary leader. He's not a "captain" though.
- HonkFortheGoose

Agreed. I love Ott, but you can't name him captain imo

This team is worse. Hands down.

Disagree

Barnes was their second best scorer

The atmosphere at First Niagara Center has gone from lame to absolutely toxic.

Check out the link I posted a few back. It's a pretty good explanation of why the FN Center is the way it is right now.

The league was much different than. Scoring in general wasn't what it is now.

Both teams are not good. But to pick on the one guy that's played well this season, is just a bit crazy.

You are correct. It was Briere. But he split time between here and Phoenix. Behind him was Kotalik.

My friend sent me a text yesterday saying the next game we have he's going to wear a bag over his head at. Too bad it's not until March 30th.

I still think 30 is a few more embarrasing loses away from saying "I want to be traded"

I wouldn't doubt it, he seems so far disgusted and seems like he's on an island all by himself.

Too bad the market for goalies isn't that great.

I know, very limited market. What do you think 30 will want at his contracts end? Better yet what do you all think 30,29,26 all will want in their next contracts.

It's hard to say. I know he's really frustrated right now, but I don't know that he wants to go either. I can see why he should want to, but I think that's why he's so frustrated. Because he wants to be here and he hates what he sees going on.

Bad year, but really? 50 point, 2-way center with size.
