Your just a dumb troll lol gtfo of here, you do realize every time the pucks in the neutral zone the player with the puck(if it isn't Eichel) is trying to find Eichel. He's literally the reason this team hasn't dissipated in the last 2 years.

Yes,

Skimmer at 9 million forever and 1 point
Okposo at 6 million and not even trying
Hall with 1 goal in 5 minutes / 0 in 800 minutes since
Joker looking like an ahl defenseman
Sam getting absolutely nothing done without eichel


These bother me more.

I also agree with goals are goals 👊

I blame ralph for Skinner, hes ruined him for his own pleasure. Soccer mom needs to go.

The Panthers are proving your theory that the Sabres would be better with more grit and toughness in the lineup. Two of the biggest reasons for their strong start is the addition of Hornqvist and Gudas. Hornqvist’s hard nosed style and Gudas making the Dzone uncomfortable for opposing forwards https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u4vvKckvo60 is only the start. The whole team is following that lead and playing harder and with more intensity. They are fun to watch

Shocking. The team Dudley helped and then went back to...

Barkov coming back to life is a big part of it as well.

He had a very average season last year

He’s part of whole team playing harder and with more intensity.

Umm, when have i implied anything else? Olo is still doing the hardest part. The guy screening (Risto for example) is doing the next hardest part. The movement of the puck is done by all (including Olo) to finally get Olo open.

You're acting like our PP is Jack entering the zone, dancing with the puck to draw two men, and then feeding Olo for an empty netter. Sorry. Olo is far more important to the PP success this year than Jack. Risto is #2. Jack is guy who who throws a nice pass and collects assists thanks to Olo and Risto.

- lacaprup


By suggesting anyone can make those passes and VO is doing the hardest part. We've seen what this PP looks like when it's all perimeter passing, trying to force a VO shot.

So much dead weight. The only good answer for them is to suck it up and win with what they have too because of how they're built and paid. It's like the plot of Major League but with high priced players. I wonder where T-Pegs is planning on moving us?

Guys stop talking about the PP, it's the only thing working, we don't need another curse.

They perimeter pass now to set up Olo, and it's quite successful. What are you watching? Oh yeah, videos of Jack and Sam on their bike. Try watching the game. There's nothing Jack is doing on the PP that is special. I'm not sitting here saying he sucks or something, but stop pretending he's doing something he's not.

Similar issues in Carolina don't make you question Skinner just a little bit?

That'll literally never happen, maybe back in the 80-90's but the NHL doesn't relocate anymore or they'd of moved Arizona or Florida to Quebec

While true, that isn't the argument.
The discussion is about his lack of effectiveness at EV.

- IonSabres


I’m not disagreeing with the fact he isn’t a good even strength player, however with some better puck luck he does have a few more even strength goals on the season.

Olofsson shouldn’t kill the top lines production if Eichel and take your pick of Hall/Skinner/Reinhart/Cozens is up there producing as they should be.

I don’t see Matthews or Marner suffering because am 85 year old Thornton is up there

I never even mentioned Jack.

Over the last 2 seasons with VO, the PP is below average.

Guarantee we'd be in 4th and all be happy clams if soccer mom stayed in Europe and we had a real coach playing Skinner with Eichs.
