if you run the table, you make the playoffs in any other format

as for the third qb excuse, the second string would have been ready for the playoffs and they did not leave ohio state out of it with third sting cardale jones

I thought Texas would be the team left out, but I guess beating Bama, whenever you manage it, holds a lot of weight.
They definitely used FSU’s QB injury as a mark against them.

The big problem is they seem to take most of their shots from the perimeter, instead of fighting for more prime, difficult and physical shooting positions on the ice.

Interesting that they are convering much less passes in the offensive zone this season compared to last season.

ATW dropped the hammer on these (frank)ing knobs

Their claim, at least over the past year or so, is that the players and the org listen to the show. And there's a guy on staff that's paid to listen to it.

yeah man, do it, pull the trigger.

he won't do poop because he needs to maintain an 80% homegrown talent level or something. but yeah do it

- TheSabresTaco

I agree, he won’t do shat, but to say a guy like Duclair would not improve this team is inaccurate

There will be more downside. We will fark up our young talent this year too due to injuries and the GM’s refusal to address the roster holes

the injury is bs

I guess having one of the best defenses did not matter to the voters

Matt Cohen: Are the Sabres scouting forwards on struggling NHL teams to try to broker a trade?

Lysowski: They better be. It’s challenging to make a trade in December, especially when sellers know you’re desperate. Other teams are aware of the Sabres’ injuries. They also know Adams can’t afford for this to be a lost season. As a result, the prices might be higher. General managers must make bold, risky moves at times, though. I’m not suggesting he should squander all his cap space and prospect capital, but we’ve seen through 25 games that the roster needs another capable forward. He can’t wait too long to act.

So they're scouting their own team to make a trade with themselves?

Imagine if you could buy options on sports teams.

My puts would be printing....the calls I sold would've been the easiest money of all time.

Gabrielor89: Why is there no urgency to end the drought?

Lysowski: Adams is mindful of the drought. He’s expressed his respect and empathy for how it has impacted fans, but, from his perspective, he’s only responsible for a small portion of those 12 years. He won’t compromise his long-term vision to appease the fans. It’s a logical approach. Still, the Sabres must recognize the foundation of this roster is strong enough to make the playoffs if he improves it around the margins. No one is suggesting he hand a lucrative, long-term contract to an aging player. He also can’t wait for a bunch of prospects to save the day, either. Some won’t pan out. And this team will eventually have trouble signing players such as Casey Mittelstadt, Henri Jokiharju and even Alex Tuch. Core players such as Rasmus Dahlin need to experience the playoffs as soon as possible.
