team folded after the shortie vs the habs


if they competed instead of getting blown out saturday and monday, I would agree

but clearly that did not happen

They definitely seem to sulk. Who knows Homie... As a fan, it seems premature to be this negative to me.

I agree, I don't think we are this bad, but I also don't think we are playoff good yet

my guess is you are much younger than myself

I am 46


seen a lot of crap more often that not in my 38 or so years of watching buffalo sports


the only way it gets worse is if/when the leafs win a cup before us
and if the dolphins win the super bowl before us

There’s nothing to do but watch this burn to the ground

We can’t tank we found out pretty clear last year that the lottery does not award loser teams anymore

It would just be buffalo like that we’re the worst team in the league and we end up fourth overall because of the lottery

Reading comments here and elsewhere, season ticket holders take criticism of the team way more personal than non ticket holders. I get it, you've pre paid for the whole experience, you have no choice at this point. But that doesn't make what they're are doing any bit good. The criticism is 100% warranted.

my opinion is he should not be a 3rd line center

last season, the 3rd line center play of larsson, girgens, e rod was everything you could expect/hope to get


how did pouliot do with the oilers and mcdavid or draisaitl

flanking him with a career ahl player on the other side doesn't help

you need to put the younger players in a place to succeed but as long as okposo and pommer are on rw

and ror and eichel are on the dot, that won't happen


flip okposo to lw


kane-eichel-reinhart
okposo-ror-pommer


or

okposo-eichel-pommer
kane-ror-reinhart


or
kane-eichel-pommer
okposo-ror-reinhart

that best uses our top 6 IMO

- homiedclown


I believe it was the three eyed raven who once said, I mean at least once, said play Samsonite with ROR and all of your wildest dreams will come true.

Pouliot is looking like a terrible acquisition. Not only does he suck, but he keeps one of the young bucks, who is known for having "speed," in Roch. GMTM got a raw deal.

He did not have answers for Pegula


Pegula asked if a new coach was needed, GMTM said he didn't think so
Pegula asked what was the solution for rochester, GMTM didn't know
Pegula asked what was needed to fix the big clue, GMTM said a d man


lots of unanswered questions when asking details


he was over his head as a GM

Absolutely.

So he made a few trades when he had 1000 assets. Big deal.

I could buy a Ferrari if I was handed a ton of money.

He literally gutted the prospect pool, and didn’t acquire enough NHL talent.

GMTM is to blame for the outcome of this season.💯. Well except for Pouliot and Beaulieu, who aren't looking very good, but they aren't enough to swing it either way if the good players play like they're supposed to. Only the eye test would tell you Laine's season last year was a noticeable difference over Kane's. You don't subscribe to that line of thinking, which is head scratching to think you would think the team would've been different with Laine. As for ROR, not sure what is going on with him, but he was the best player in the world not still in the playoffs at last year's IIHF World Championships.

I'm not buying GMTM didn't have "any answers." I listened to enough of his press conference and interviews. He always had "answers." It's a shame honest to a fault is a thing.Beady was close, but the real rule of thumb for GMs is 2 coaches. If u wanna count Ted Nolan then fine. GMTM got a raw deal.

LOL. All they needed was a draw. They could have even lost and still got in with some help.

I blame the flooded pitch.

They'd probably lose to (frank)ing Ghana and all those "injuries" they suffered late in the game again anyway.
