Agree, most likely none come here. But that's because the Sabres never try and make it look like there trying to Win.

God, I hope they can break that perception. Overpaying for UFAs and having guys sign for contenders, instead of us, will get old again quickly.

Where have I seen this story before

Has anyone suggested they trade a player heading into their prime for a prospect 2 years out, then just sitting on their hands and wait for the goalie to get good, then start competing? It's pretty much a lock to work.

Granato's reason for existance is to put the best line-up on the ice that will give them the best chance to win. Period. By scratching Ry Jo again, he simply isn't doing his job. Wait until Girgs gets healthy and Robinson is scratched or waived.

Brutal coaching by Granatao and brutal "management" by Adams by running back the same team.

Meatballs for lunch and dinner until they fire him....if we all join in there will be less meatballs narrowing it down to just him...then we eat him if they don't fire him.

No breakfast, you will experience the meat sweats...we will endure until this is resolved

Is meatballs fake meat!? Is that the issue?

We need more single horny hockey players!

They'll run threw a Wall knowing there getting a different hole to shoot at. Maybe even a bonus getting to the Cup.
Won't be needing Hockey Sticks to shoot pucks by seasons end.

Put them in Harbour Center, no Women for the Season. It weakens the knees. Half these guys got married or engaged the last few years, to much Sex during the season.🤏🤷

Could have Ice Girls positioned around the 1st row of the Rink. Give the players a lookie at what awaits if they win. Be like Caged animals after 6 months.

They talked to him as I would imagine a GM would do. I am sure they talk to a lot of players.

-7 in 7 games. I am sure this Board would have loved the signing - not.

1 - 6 record with him there. I guess he was the missing piece for us. I stand corrected.

Most on here did not want him.
Just some giddy guy that wants a signed Patty Sabres jersey

Of course it's his job. I'm just saying, the reasons behind why they look the way they do, he explained it and it makes sense.

What I am saying is, yes, those things are happening, but you, Don, have been unsatisfactory in removing that problem.

He explains the issue and he essentially says they need to learn it themselves through experience. Which I'm not confident about.

Because even if they do, their structure sucks.

Sorry Taco, youngest team in the league and should have zero reason for coming out flat game after game.
It is an excuse and I for one ain’t buying it. If it is real, why don’t we hear this from 31 other teams.

It is a mind set plain and simple. The revelations made over the past 2 weeks point towards a very fragile mental attitude permeating the team.

If it was Okposo expressing this, I could see it for him, but the team mostly plays soft; doesn’t hit, doesn’t grind into the furry areas, has a hard time with the idea of coming back…so just exactly what the hell are they tired from?

It’s BS…IMO of course.

It is BS

That had no issues stringing wins together last year, or back to backs, 7 of 10 whatever

They sure had effort issues last year though. Its a total excuse

I'm changing my tune...I have faith in this plan now. If I look at next season all they need to happen to make the playoffs are:

Quinn
Peterka
Cozens
Tage
Tuch
Skinner
Mitts
Kulich
Krebs

Dahlin
Joker
Power
Samuelsson
Clifton
R Johnson

Levi/UPL

to have career seasons and look out.

Peters and Rivet want to trade

Mitts and Savoie

to Calgary for

Weegar and Kadri

Vanek doesn't like it.

Bryson sadly clears.

And the farce that lasted over two months has finally ended.

Ryan Johnson stays with the team, Bryson, Stillman and Clague are demoted.
