I’m not sure I’ve ever felt this disengaged from the team. There are no easy fixes. Firing everyone and starting anew isn’t going to get traction for years. Trading some of their core (they should) like Power and Cozens, unless perfectly executed won’t result in a net positive. I have no hope. No happiness or excitement associated with the team.

Agree that Cozens has had games enough to show he can be center, and failed. Unfortunately those centers won't take us to playoffs and my point was that we have to sacrifice one or two rosterplayers and some draft picks to get what we really need. I have been thinking about this for awhile. Benson is not for trade imo, but it seems like coaches are having a hard time finding him a center. I honestly can't figure out what type of center he would benefit from playing with, but I think that is what we should target, and to me both Quinn and Cozens are worth trading to get that. But I rather ofcourse keep one of them. But I expect nothing with Coconut Kev as GM.

As far as the PP goes....It is a VERY small sample size but I posted this earlier in the thread. -When Cozens got hurt during the Philly game last year he missed 2 games. In both of those games the Sabres scored on the Powerplay. -In the 4 games BEFORE he got hurt Cozens was on the powerplay. The sabres scored ZERO PP goals in any of those 4 games. -In the 4 games AFTER he came back from the injury, Cozens was on the Powerplay. The sabres scored ZERO PP goals in any of those for 4 games. Cozens leads the team in PP minutes this year and the PP is awful. The above data is such a small sample size that it alone doesn't prove he is the reason for the Sabres poor PP. But that, along with simply watching him on the PP and seeing he isn't good at it, PLUS his total of 2 PP goals combined this season and last season with all his PP time...and yeah, he needs to be removed from the PP. He actively hurts it.

Not having a proper 2C isn't a good reason to keep a bad one there. Do you want a better 2C Yep. But Keeping Cozens there isn't the answer he hurts the team. Moving McLeod to 2C, having Krebs and/or Kulich at 3C and Cozens on wing is not ideal, but it is better than having Cozens at 2C.

My point exactly when I say the "fire Adams" chants are misplaced. Adams may be a terrible GM. He may be a good GM, but the point is its hard to really tell with the above taken into consideration with Pegula in is ear all the time. If you want to fire Adams, then the entire hockey department has to go with him AND Pegula need to take a step back to. Anything other than that and nothing changes.

Some interesting comments I basically agree with from these guys. Sabres stuff starts around the 35:30 mark. -
Bills struggle usually the day after Sabres losses...

I mean Rasmus put up 4 straight 40+ point seasons for us on terrible teams. That's not nothing... But he did that playing way more minutes than he should have. -
One thing you notice when watchin this and other highlight videos is that he scores most of his goals when he is skating toward the net and shooting. He is not a tip in / rebound scoring type. Mostly a rush player. At least so far.
