From the players to the coaching to the GM to the dim owner, count on lack of rational response to any concrete situation. Prudence is a virtue that has learned wisdom to the point that there is a natural "feel" for the proper response to the particulars of a situation. You'd think there'd be some of that with Ruff, but the pervasive fog of imbecility seems nearly invincible.

Nope. A NMC (modified or full) prevents getting waived for purpose of an AHL loan. NTC just keeps a guy from getting traded.

Know that analytics says pull the goalie early. But, THIS team is NOT going to keep the puck in the other team's end for 3 minutes straight. They occassionally can do it for a minute, minute & a half. So, how about we account for the players we actually have and pull the goalie at the 1st chance AFTER there's only 100 seconds left in the 3rd when you're only down by 1 goal. Get it that if they're down by 2 they'll need to pull the goalie sooner and hope; but please DON'T continue to pull him so early when you're only down by 1.

You are not being fair to the word low... epically incompetent is better

I mean look do the same thing get the same result. The team sucks the FO sucks the owner sucks and the future sucks.... wait till the only people with talent in the team start to force their way out then you will really know what sucks it. Unless TP sells the team the Webster dictionary with not even have a definition next to the word suck just a team picture of the Butterknives .

I just got home and checked the score. Oof. I'm pretty sure I had much more fun at the Friendsgiving, complete with mariachi band.

It's bad. There's no sugar coating it. But when Sabres hockey is back, you'll be glad you were here to write that post. I slowly quit on the Bills between 2007 and 2012 ish. I regret that now. There is no putting that Humpty Dumpty back together again. When it's gone, it's gone. Just survive and keep hoping.

He does put his own flare on it. He highlights the word "the" in the phrase "o'er the land of THE free." But will take that over making the song last an extra 2 minutes as the anthem singer decides people really came to see a 2 song concert rather than a hockey game. It's such a small thing to make THAT his own take on the anthem. Miss it.

This sucks. I really feel like the only solution is for TP to sell the team, and I don’t see that happening.

Without looking at other box scores for today, these 2 ENG would put them in a tie with Minnesota with 6. I think the San Jose Sharks are lifting themselves from the quagmire and will make the playoffs again before the Sabres. I should probably go back to rooting for them. Cellebrini is at another level.

Yeah, same. Also...helpless. Hockey is my favorite sport. I so badly want a good team to root for. Every year I get this lump of coal and there's no end in sight. I repeat myself constantly with this but this isn't a serious hockey organization and I honestly don't know when they'll ever be good again.

Bro. Same.

I just feel sad and hopeless.

Oh, no.

Realizing he has been in the NHL this long and will never have his name on the Stanley cup. That’s got to be some kind of record

This team is a laughing stock. The NHL equivalent of the NY Jets.

Is Sabrespace the Matt Ellis of message boards?

Good. Get him the hell out of here.

Every aspect of this organization is bottom of the league.

On to Utah next week. Goodnight all.

Yes, obviously he’s struggling and he gets a pass. It’s what Bo is like when he’s not there to hold his hand. It’s not good.

Just think if they had played one whole period like the did for 5 mins in the third what the score would have been

Agree

Makes me wonder about our Conditioning Program & Staff, our Practice Regimen & Coaches, and our Medical Staff. I do the same.
