Sabres observations: Ralph Krueger, players searching for answers after loss

‘And there was a head coach, unable to solve the problem, whose future appears murky at the end of a week in which he benched Jeff Skinner, the team’s second-highest paid player, for three straight games.’

The Wraparound: Sabres fall apart, shut out again in Jack Eichel’s return

‘With Jack Eichel in the lineup after a two-game absence, the Sabres did not allow a shot on goal for the first seven minutes and peppered Philadelphia Flyers goalie Carter Hart during an early power play. Then, Krueger watched from the Sabres’ bench as it all fell apart again.’

Hapless Sabres lose again, endure brutal weekend: ‘I’m very embarrassed’

‘They’ve looked downright awful since their COVID-19 pause ended two weeks ago, losing seven of their nine outings.’

Sabres have intriguing goalie option; Jonas Johansson receives first start

‘Stalock, 33, has played 151 NHL games, including a career-high 38 last season. The veteran could be an intriguing option for the Sabres.’

Hart stops 28 shots; Flyers blank Sabres 3-0 again

‘“The guys have stuck together. No one’s turned on each other and it’s a positive mindset. It’s just currently not working for us,” Eichel said. “No one feels sorry for us in this league. We don’t feel sorry for ourselves. We just need to dig ourselves out of this and find a way to feel good about our game.”’

Sabres shut out by Philadelphia for second straight day

‘The Sabres enjoyed an early 5-0 shots on goal advantage to begin the game, but finished the opening period being outshot 13-7 by Philadelphia. Buffalo’s best scoring chance came when Curtis Lazar hit the cross bar midway through the frame.’

Opinion: The Sabres embarrass themselves scoring no goals in two weekend games

‘Buffalo’s ineptness took them from 27th in league scoring to 29th averaging 2.21 goals per game. Only the Detroit Red Wings and the Anaheim Duck are worse. Last season under Krueger the team was 21st in league scoring at 2.80 goals per game.’

Opinion: Three Observations: Answers unclear as Sabres are blanked again

‘Buffalo got smothered by the Flyers all weekend, outshot by a total of 77-51. The stat sheet shows that the Sabres faired slightly better in Sunday afternoon’s game, but they got shelled in the first two periods before the Flyers let up in the 3rd period after taking a 3-0 lead.’

Three Observations: Sabres blanked by Flyers in 3-0 loss

‘Even as the Sabres continued looking for a spark and looking for the right combination, Cozens got some time on the first power play unit while Eichel was recovering. Whatever Ralph Krueger tried today isn’ the answer. Scratching Dylan Cozens certainly isn’t a part of the answer either.’
