2nd half was a fun listen! Everyone should listen to Peter's closing rant.

No PP time and poor shooting luck.

His -4.6 goals below expected are worst on the team (Cozens is -4.5 goals below expected).

His 0.91 expected goals per 60 is tied with Peterka. Difference being Peterka has scored 6 goals above expected.

Being snakebitten and not generating offence are two completely different things

No points, not just poor shooting luck.

In Granato's words, "I thought the grind of the season got to him a little bit".

15 shots in 10 games

it's more than bad puck luck in 2024

Another win for the Rags tonight while he was in the press box.

Probably the best effort of the season to boot.

Work smart not hard…then plenty of time to poop post. America is the land of winners….and sadly, Buffalo Sabres season ticket holders.

Good leadership doesn’t need to micromanage.

It starts at the top for me, and I'm not talking about the coach.

When you are the GM, and you make moves that are akin to tucking your tail as a rodent and running away, under the guise of nobody good wants to be in Buffalo, and the players you do bring in are mostly bums, you have totally failed to properly support the young players you recently signed long term deals with.

One example is the revolving door of linemates Cozens was saddled with for a large chunk of the season.

They cannot continue to operate under the premise that young top players don't need quality veteran support.

It's one of the largest failures of the current management.

You aren’t looking high enough in the organization for the root of all that ales the Sabres

Maybe it's the game quantity, but I think he's learning the Sabre way. If no one else is playing physical or considered hard to play against why should I be the only one? Clifton and Johnson was a nice try, but they hit guys after a play is made and not before. This whole team needs a lesson basic physicality and not just waving sticks in lanes. Season is disappointing but that was decided in June/July. In just 2 short years you will have your team of all #1 picks (if they don't leave)

You want bad players that are no better than Erik Johnson and Clifton.

It’s funny

Dude don’t even bother with him, you could show him the secret to life and he would be more concerned with his cbo

Adams is going to cling to this harder than the Sacklers did with the New England journal of medicine.

Most troubling part of what I read is above. Were wins not imperative from the start of the season? We know the answer.

>>> “We’re in a situation where wins are imperative, so all indicators are you’re going to go with the guy who is going in as many games as you can when he’s separated himself from the group,” Granato said.

Been saying they new what they were doing by July 10th. They had NO Backup plan to the "Hope" plan. Funny thing is he's getting into that Cap Zone and he never used it as a Weapon. He's gonna have a Bunch of players extended Long-Term that still don't know how or what it takes to consistently Win.

Utterly amazing, and distasteful, that he's gotten to the point that cap space will be an issue going forward, and he did nothing with his cap space advantage when he had it.

Truly pathetic management.
