Chorus of boos follows another ‘unacceptable’ Sabres home loss

‘The uncharacteristic blunders continued.’

Jason Botterill admits frustration with Sabres goes all the way up to ownership

‘”From a management standpoint, that’s one of the reasons I came to this organization. The resources are given to us to have success. … If you’re frustrated with the results, hey, challenge management. But what our ownership has given us? They give us the tools to have success.”‘

The Wraparound: Colorado Avalanche 6, Buffalo Sabres 1

‘With their season on the brink, the Sabres imploded on home ice for the third time in a week.’

Numbers show ugly January for the Sabres, so now what?

‘January was particularly gruesome. The team shooting nearly 11% across all situations helped gloss over the fact that this team played just about every game in incredible proximity of either Carter Hutton or Linus Ullmark. One skater (winger Jimmy Vesey) on the entire roster had an expected goal rate above break even. Not a single Sabres skater saw a positive shot differential while on the ice. And even with an incredibly high team shooting percentage, only four skaters saw a favorable goal differential. (This is what happens when you have 104 shot attempts in the red in 11 January games.)’

Sabres implode in ugly second period, fall to Avalanche: ‘Today was (crap)’

‘Tuesday’s feeble effort might’ve been the Sabres’ worst under coach Ralph Krueger.’

Sabres’ Brandon Montour gaining trust, earning big minutes

‘“I’ve learned a lot from the older guys that play just the defensive game,” Montour said. “I think that’s more … of a strength (in) my game than I’ll be scoring a goal or whatnot.”’

Burakovsky, fluke goal, spark Avalanche’s 6-1 rout of Sabres

‘“Today was (bad),” Ristolainen said, using a profanity to punctuate his disappointment. What hurt the most was Ristolainen has experienced similar collapses during his previous six seasons. “I never thought I’d have to say this, but I had a lot of these games here,” he added. “They’re not fun to play. No one want to play games like we had tonight.”’

How Dylan Cozens beat the odds, became Sabres’ top prospect

‘“His skating was really coming along, he had a real natural high hockey IQ – he was seeing the ice very well and understood the game,” said Lawrie. “He was ahead of the other players that were playing very often. So that’s probably when you started hearing whispers around town and around the rink that there’s a young guy that might go a long way in this sport.”’

Sabres throttled by visiting Avalanche, 6-1

‘The visitors won handily, fueled mightily by a four-goal second period that saw Sabres goaltender Johan Johansson forced into relief of Carter Hutton to make his NHL debut.’
