Everyone wanted a youth movement . Now you have it ! Now we think they should win every game . This is going to take time folks no matter who the coach and GM are . I suggest you find a new favorite team if you do not have the time and patience to deal with it . It is going to be really ugly for a while . Lots of other franchises have been through it and came out the other side with a great team . It is going to take time . Resume your whining.

Question: Did the Sabres go too far in rebuilding to the point where the team is not even a viable NHL team?
- Buffalo-Sabres


No. We didnt fully commit. What rebuilding team trades for a 35 year old Defenseman and gives him top minutes ahead of younger guys.

What rebuilding team plays guys a la John Scott over their supposed potential star center.

I fully believe Darcy told us rebuild but still tried to make this team competative and failed.

I really just don't understand what the whole "Brony" ordeal is about... I'd think there are other ways to appreciate friendship and tolerance than through a show designed for 8 year old girls...

Having been on several sports teams during high school I'm actually ok with it. You need to loosen up everynow and then. It keeps you from being frustrated and doing something stupid in a game. It was at the end of practice too so it's not like they wasted time doing this.

This is not a youth movement when you first round projected savior of your franchise pick of 2 years ago is playing on the 4th line between 2 goons. Give me a freaking break. If we were losing and the kids were playing big minutes that's one thing but when they are getting 6 minutes a game give me a franking break

On top of that going into the 3rd period John Scott had more time on the ice than Grigorenko. If you are going to rebuild commit to it don't give me this half assed that's where he slots answers

- Stripes77


Fact is that draft pick needs to get it together . Nobody wants to see Grigorenko be amazing more than me . Fact is he sucks right now . The game seems to way to fast for him and he shows no desire . He should not be playing and being rewarded for his lack luster play . Even on a line with Girgenson . Girgenson would be in the corner forechecking fighting for the puck and Grigorenko would just be crossing the blue line . He is being screwed by the transfer rule , not being able to go to the AHL . But he just not belong in the NHL either . We would be better off sending him back to Junior .

How can you tell he sucks when he is playing with the likes of John Scott, Cody McCormick, Pat Kaleta. Not exactly offensive power houses. Yet Drew Stafford contiunes to get first line time. Explain that one to me?

at least on my end i think you are sorely mistaken.. i didn't expect them to win, the result is what i expected. It is the lack of desire, terrible coaching and other factors that are pissing me off. but resume
- IndianaSabresFan


Sir - you are the minority here . The whole situation is sad . I have come to terms with it and see it for what it is.

Yes I will explain - First of Stafford is actually playing inspired hockey , The last three games . The 63-21-82 line has probably been our best line ( not saying much ) What little time Grigorenko is on the ice he is just going through the motions . No Matter who he is on the ice with . I really thought that game he was on the line with Girgensons would be the turning point . But he was always way behind the play just going through the motions.

I do not hate Grigorenko . I hope he turns into the next great Russian NHL player . But he is not cutting it right now . No matter who he plays with . I have friends that are NHL scouts and that is their opinion as well . The kid needs to find another gear .

Grigorenko Girgensons and Flynn were our best line last week and he breaks them up. They (coaching staff) are not letting him play to his strengths. They have him so worried about defense. Last game he did compete but nobody would notice as he only played 6 minutes
