Bell signed with Jets... 13.1 mil a year... CJ Mosely 17 Mill a year

they just spent 30.1 mil a year on two guys. that's crazy!!! good luck filling in the rest of the team...

That 10 game winning streak really hurts right now.

It likely saved Housely's job and will cost us a very good shot at #1 overall.

Correct ! Kudos to you for having the courage to say though.

Risto’s 5v5 starts were almost all in our DZone yesterday, but only one shot allowed while he was on ice.

I’m not ready to throw him away yet.

Evander Kane not traveling with the Sharks for personal reasons.

This should end well

Are we the worst team in the league right now ? Seems like it. I think we have a real good shot at 27th overall (currently held by Anaheim with 65 points). I don't think we're catching NJ, LA, DET, or OTT for one of the bottom 4 positions, but 5th worst seems obtainable. Getting one of the top 2 lottery picks could really happen. That'd be a nice consolation prize to a sh!tty season.

The entire coaching staff should be fired, 27th place!! We were number #1 overall in the LEAGUE at the end of November. We have won 13 games since then, 13 out of 42 games played. I know it was unrealistic to think we could keep the pace set in November but was .500 hockey too much to ask for?

The hilarious part is they keep getting worse.

Nothing goes right.

Goaltending is hot garbage right after the streak, then when it tightens up slightly, we can’t score.

How does Housley not get fired

"You know, we ran into a hot goalie tonight" His comments last night. I think he is TRYING to get fired at this point. He can't be that dumb right? That was the easiest shut out of Bishops career.

I have never despised a coach so much.... I liked the Phil hire originally. But my god the man needs to go.

Not a single Bills UFA contract can't be escaped by June 1st, 2020. Morse would have the highest dead cap, but barring serious injuries, I can't see the Bills letting him go for at least several years.

Was there a game last night? I was busy waiting for Beane to trade for AJ Green.

On paper... they are in great shape. Hard to not be excited, but being the Bills i have to keep my emotions in check. But i like where they are headed.

I watched 5 minutes of the 2nd period and almost threw up. With that said, I really like Montour.

Ya know, some people say "well, he needs better players"

As this could definitely be true, I glance over at the Barry Trotz machine and look at that average as all hell lineup and am in awe of the work the COACH does COACHING a bunch of AVERAGE players into a defensive machine.

Still very happy with that trade. Love it. Every day that passes, we have to wonder if it's another nail in the coffin. How could you justify keeping this man. Remove the 10 game win streak and this team has grown nothing burgers. Off ice, maybe. Culture? I suppose. Find a guy who can produce off the ice and hopefully ON THE (frank)ING ICE TOO

You just made the best point ever. You need a great coach to make average players/Teams into something more.

Phil does not do that. I really don't know what he does...Edit: chews gum like a champ....

Makes questionable roster/lineup decisions daily. Holds no vets accountable. Makes horrible excuses. Has no fire or direction.


But,

Chews gum very well and is a very nice guy to the players.

I like the system that Phil has put into place. He could use better assistants. But just because he tries to run a modern offense doesn't mean he can. And he clearly can't. Find someone who can.

We have more talent on offense and defense than the Islanders. They were a (frank)ing train wreck under Cappy and Weight. And now, go (frank)ing figure, they're one of the best, with one of the best coaches in the league. You know who's a good coach? Joel Quenneville. Go get Joel Quenneville. You know who needs a new contract? Jon Cooper. Go get Jon Cooper. Find someone that can actually coach a (frank)ing team.

Sabres are not making the playoffs. I'd rather lose out to replace the coach than to have a better lottery pick. If it were just the lottery, I'd want to win. But going out on a bad losing streak will help Jason realize he needs to find a coach that can.. ya know.. coach.

They should absolutely fire Phil and hire Q... Phil is not the answer.

Do you really like his systems though? He was supposed to be this defensive mastermind and yet every single defender we have has gotten worse.
