Prime Dom isn't saving the two ROR goals
- Hank Balling

Easier to blame the goalie than come to terms than the entire team is garbage.

Where was the defense? Where was the offense? If you're going to blame the goalie on all 4 goals you're going to instantly invalidate your credibility. The shots are 16-3, turnovers are rampant, defense has been seeing ghosts. UPL was bad but every single player on the team except Anderson has been absolutely garbage and Anderson only because he just got in and Toronto isn't going as hard anymore.

Entire team includes the goalie IMO.

It’s all bad.

It's just a very imbalanced squad. It's all gas and no brakes.

They're also going against a TML team that made a shrewd trade to go all-in. The Leafs are very good.

He deserves some of the blame but I'm not going to poop on the guy when it's already 3-0 and you give the guy a partial break right after. The entire team deserves this blame.
- Zschalberg


When did I say the entire team didn’t deserve the blame ?

I said the 4th goal, which yes an NHL goalie should save.

I've seen no gas, they have like 6 shots. If they had offense and just couldn't play defense that's one thing. Right now they're bad on every facet of the game.

This team will live and die by the crappy goalie we have and by not putting the body on players. Still too many D break downs and giveaways. I can't wait to hear all the excuses after the game.

They weren't ready for this one, no doubt. But the season still represents progress imo, and I'm as jaded as they come. The core players are hitting their potential.

The Sabres need to make moves to balance their squad; we've known this for over a year based on their defense and whatever is happening in net.

I do believe that. I dont see how he had goals 1, 2 or 3. Bunting probably. But its not easy on a guy when it was like 1 shot.
- Aaron_85

Looked like he lost a skate blade on the first goal, no?

The sad part is that mgmt can use this game as an excuse to say they're not ready for a move or two, when the opposite is true. They're dying for a move or two.

I see progress from the team at the bottom of the standings, sure. But imo they're not nearly as close as their record indicates. They have glaring holes and it's not going to be a quick fix. It's not all doom and gloom, I'm not saying rip it down, but I'm not thinking a trade or two or a free agent is going to fix this team in any meaningful way. They need their current prospects to hit and to hit on all of their current picks. I would say 50% of the roster needs to be replaced minimum.

It was a trash post and we all know it

So we play good defense, what is on the ice is Adams and Granato. So I think his post was pretty spot on.

When did the human condition become desirable that we found weird drugs and chemicals to keep them alive long enough to feel pain for 65 years and then die with nothing?
