Too bad they parked the bus for this one. Houser deserved better. Might as well have been a pre-season game.

Houser also didn’t help them on a few of those goals

Bedard and Wright are franchise talents.

I feel like I am be cucked watching this Gold medal game.

Sabres are terrible and get neither of them.

Tanking for Cozens was my last act.

I honestly didn’t think we’d be this bad this year. Was expecting to have a season like the Rangers had.

A lot of unknowns going into this offseason.

I really like Eklund though

The 4th goal was deflating. An NHL goalie saves that. And I'm not here to poop on Houser because he's a great story, but all great stories have to come to an end. That game very much had the feel of a preseason game between an A-squad and a B-squad

This is the Flacco we all need and look forward to hearing from.

GMTM was planned.

J Botts was a stealth tank imo. His marquee FA signing was Pouliot. He was clearly in wait and see mode.

KAGM was more circumstance imo. Sabres were doomed by poor shooting luck the first 10-12 games before the wheels fell off and they gave up on the coach and lost their Captain.

I still don’t think the Sabres are as bad as they appear but a lot of it hedges on Eichel and Reinharts’ long term statuses with the club.

I Think you're being a little tough on skinner.
He drew a penalty last game

- Boss34



Is there a site that keeps track of that?

I wonder what the penalties drawn per million for Skinzy is.

I agree, but I find it strange that some of the " interal" management didnt recognize how horrible ralph was last season?

Also, plenty of 1 year non committal deals. Almost like a back up plan to winning 🤔

I'd put $5 on great28 having a better penalty drawing per $ rate

Hard to blame one guy for this game. I was going to blame MVP Hall but it’s too late for that. Was going to blame Skinner then all of a sudden he scores that important 4th goal. Thought about Doogie but he doesn’t deserve any negative crap after setting a record. Then it came to me. It’s the Ralphie Curse. Another 10 years of curseable hockey coming up.

Fixed. But agreed... we need an old priest, a young priest, a whole chicken, and some sage.

Sir Tall is 0.5 ppg in 22 games. That's quality value.

Mitts is 0.55 ppg in 40 games. $39,732/pp. That ranks 35th overall in the league. As far as standard contracts, that ranks 11th. 17 points in 21 games since 3/31.

Dahlin is right behind him at 37th overall.

$1.3 million per goal for Skinner.

That's good value.

What would u reasonably want to do about it?
I don’t think it’s a movable contract
