So losing Tuch had nothing to do with it. Having Dahlin and Samuelsson out at the same time didn't affect that. Having Chychrun or Timo would have lessened those blows. Maybe it helps maybe it doesn't but depth is hurting this team and has had a big hand in the last 2 weeks.

I don't think Samuelsson makes much difference at all. I haven't run the numbers, but I suspect the team has a LOWER GAA with Samuelsson out

Chychrun scores. DeBrincat with the GWG. Sens pass us by and still control their own destiny.

But they don't have three 2nd round picks in the upcoming draft. Because there's nothing the youngest team in the NHL (who has a 41-year old goalie) needs more than a horde of draft picks. Good, mature players are for the people wanting to throw the future away.

It hurts because Bryson has to play more minutes or Clague. On our team 1 or 2 players could have helped because it lessons having players of less talent have to step into rolls there not good for.

I'm serious. I think we might have a lower GAA with Sammy out of the lineup. Wildly low sample size and all.

The whole D core is bad at Defense other than Dahlin, who hasn't exactly been great at it since coming back from injury. Plenty of blame and it should start with Adams and not addressing the situation months ago. He stuck to his plan, fine I hope it works. But his team is crumbling and a lot of it is because of him.

Give me a frigging break people.... Make all the excuses you want to come up with.... Tuch is out, they are young, it's the third Thursday of the 10th month of the 12th year.... Blah Blah Blah.... There is NO EXCUSE for ANY team to frigging give up and go home when playing important games. The Sabres are proving that they are an embarrassment when it comes to giving at least a decent effort for the city of Buffalo and it's fans. They clearly do not have the coaching or gm in place to get the most out of the talent they have...... Just when they suck you in thinking they will compete for a playoff spot they come out playing like little girls..... Unacceptable....

There goes Ottawa and here comes Detroit. This could mean Connor Bedard is in the rear view mirror.
Time to fire Granato. If you ask Comrie this morning he will agree.

Hey clown or that guy that knows poop from

How well do those booze cruise bags work on Royal Caribbean? Heading out Sunday and wanted to try them to smuggle on some booze. Ronā€™sā€™s/rewards? Horror stories?

Youre crazy. The team that acquired those players has no future since they traded all of their future and canā€™t acquire any other future ever.

I truly can understand them losing some of these games because of their youth but what I never can accept is the failure to compete...

No thank you. There's better forward options available where they'll pick, and numerous defense options in the 2nd round.

UFA's are future. The past teams built through the draft only. Now since UFA status took place teams build using the combo. A rookie, a UFA and a free drink

We need to start a pool.... Can the Sabres keep the Rangers and Bruins under 8 goals? And will the Sabre take their dresses off and actually play hockey?

Depending on where they pick in the 1st Reinbacher could be the best player on the board. Sabres need to get some High End D prospects in there system, and that includes using those 2nds even that 3rd if need be.

Could be. All depends on how they have the players ranked.

With where he is mocked, I don't agree that he's the best player in that range.

Ottawas pick is worse than Buffalosā€¦..

We should ask Paul Hamilton how thatā€™s going.
