Sure hope Sorokin can put up a better save percentage tomorrow.

Sorokin is the GOAT. Every single poster here thinks so.

Me too, Varly sucked ass today

sOrOk3n would have had a shutout and an assist.

Varly put up a .905 today. Clearly the superior performance. He remains better...

Good finish to a slow start! You have to beat the teams you are supposed to beat.

Sabres or not tough to beat any team consecutive times if we can make it three that would be awesome.

I think it’s the toughest division in the league.
- nyisles7

Agreed. After I said that I took another look at the standings starting to see a little separation pens are starting to fall off. Figured they would.

I expected the Sabres to play with more of an edge today. Getting publicly called out by the GM is a big insult.

I have a feeling Hutton and Ristolainen are going to be sick of seeing replays of Barzal's goal.

That team is heading for a sell off. I imagine Krueger is going to get canned before long...

Sabres culture is so incredibly dysfunctional and has been for years imo. I think you could put ten all stars on that team and they would still suck. I also think Jack Eichel for as talented and as great a player that he is, is also a pouty little biotch.

He shouldn’t have survived Adams taking over from Botteril. The Pegula’s are the equivalent of Charles Wang.

I don't advocate for fights in the NHL but it says a lot to me about the Sabres and their passive mindset right now that there's no physical pushback. They've lost the game, but they play #Isles again tomorrow and the players should be mad as hell. Soft period from them.

I would think so, but I don't think it will make a difference.

They Packed it in after it was 4-1. Ralph is on a short short leash. He was hired by Botterill and you gotta think Adam’s has to do something other than talking about it.

They suck on paper also. Their defense and goaltending has consistently sucked for the last decade. They never improve upon on it.

If buffalo had decent goaltending and defense they would be a very good team. There offense is good.

Yeah like I said their defense and goaltending sucks

Their offense is mediocre. They have Eichel, Olofsson who can only score on the pp, and Reinhardt who is a middling top 6 player. They have a good pp but that doesn’t always equate to a “good” offense.
