I agree, his Juniors team is in 5th or 6th place in there Division so they are holding on to a playoff spot. I just don't know going back to them is good for him, they traded Savoie and another player. But I guess he could get his game back.

I don't think I'd do it, but if they did, and called up Kulich + Rosen for the rest of year, I'd be fine with it. Doubt they'll burn a year on Kilich at this point.

I don't believe there's anything that can do to make him eligible for the AHL playoffs. For that matter, I don't think Savoie can either. Possible there's some loopholes.

Sabres should give Krebs as much time with skilled players as possible. See what he has moving forward.

Right now zem has more goals then Krebs and that’s pretty cringe

- Boss34


Krebs is pass first guy. Girgs has 0 assists.

Any chance those are related?

I agree. He was fine as a 4th liner. He sound never be played on any other line or special teams.

Okposo the player is whatever at this point.

Biggest bust of a FA signing only rivaling Leino.

Okposo the leader is an absolute farce.

He’s the leader of this team and decides. They booed of for being awful, so now we stick it to them by not saying thanks for sticking with us even know we are still (frank)ing awful.

Kyle Okposo can kick rocks.

A smart center knows it's best to feed his former all star winger vs trying to score on his own

I’ve brought this up a few times from my buddy.

Very country club lifestyle going on with the Sabres

it's like musicians in many ways

some of them are very humbled and appreciative of the fans and their success

others feel they are entitled to it

a little humble pie is needed for the owner, gm, coaches and players

This.

The entitlement these players feel is absurd. He should be traded away today or told he can retire instead of being waived.

Adams also should have shut this poop down the minute he found out the players weren't saluting the fans. The fans aren't booing because they haven't made the playoffs in 13 years, they're booing because the team sucks THIS YEAR.

How Kyle doesn't understand that blows my (frank)ing mind. He is not a captain

This is so true. Poogoola needs to step up already and right this ship. Hopefully, no one will purchase tickets and he will have no choice to do something.

Never will this work out to be a good trade. When you give up a star player for a pipe dream you can't sit back and say just wait 10 years

I mentioned this a couple times. I’ve heard podcasts and read articles that say Adams would leave it up to him to decide if he wants to go to a contender at the deadline because his kids and wife are involved in Buffalo stuff. What relevance does this have on making sound decisions to improve the team? Under his “leadership”, the Sabres have accomplished nothing but acceptance of underperforming.
He is, was a marginally serviceable 4th liner who was way over utilized and over valued

Unfortunately, Fitztooth69 and the rest of the STH will renew every year hoping their seats become as valuable as the Maple Leafs seats are.

Blasphemy! Bunch of Week minded Pussies. Compete, Heart, Don't Ever quit keep going, Tenacity, Respect. Show that at Home as much as you do on the Road and Buffalo will take you in and Rock KeybankCenter. Play Hockey 2 out of every 6 games and they Won't.

Right on Hank. And the worst of it all is he plays more than some of the young guns that need experience to see where or if they fit into the future

1 year deal on top of one of the worst extensions in hockey history. Don’t undersell it

It’s a tough spot for long time season ticket holders

I literally have the best seats for the price points in the arena . Going on a decade of being a season ticket holder and had the seats signed over directly from original (keybank) seat owners.

It’s easy for newer sth to just throw away their seniority , but hurts more the longer you have had great seats.

Seats will become extremely valued, if they make the playoffs and become a successful franchise.

Worked for the Buffalo Bills eventually, now seats are impossible to land for big games and super expensive.

The key to maintaining tickets is to sell some of the Toronto and bruins games. 41 home games is a pretty hectic schedule.

Selling the games, just means you watch the game a home like the rest of the fans.

Sabres facebook for season ticket holders is the way to go for buying and selling the games to other Buffalo fans .

How did this work in regards to upl?

The resident goof ball relentlessly make jokes about KA having upl over for a dinner and explaining his worth and plan within the organization.

Looks like having a good relationship with players helps at times.

I do see what your saying in most cases, there should be some separation of church and state

There is zero accountability or expectations placed on the players. That is a complete organizational failure. It's just gross, honestly, that the entire franchise doesn't give a single (frank) about results

Cool, UPL has played well since New Year's and after the team was already cooked as well as he cooked his famous dinner for Adams.

Sign him to a 7x7 deal this offseason, absolutely.

Auston Matthews: 48 goals, 23 assists, 70 points in 52 games

Tage Thompson and Dylan Cozens: 26 goals, 36 assists, 62 points in 95 combined games

Never compare those two to Matthews ever again.


This is exactly why we fell off this season, when everything looked positive moving forward

Tough to have a normal conversation when you’re this fired up. 🔨

The vibes went south, something many didn’t see happening

*I think Adams cooked the meal for upl, not the other way around

Maybe he should have tage over for brunch before tomorrow’s game?
