Now the Blues will never trade us Kyrou for UPL.

Are they being told to do the drop pass or are they just kind of……..dumb? UPL taking a tripping penalty after giving up two in just 13 shots solidified my opinion on him. We have two legitimate top six forwards and neither are game changers.

He’s a used car salesman pretending to be an NHL coach. He only had to fool two people and successfully did so (TP and KA)

Ellis playing tonight might have revved up the Sabres. The Blues were certainly playing for pride. Past culture responds, if only temporarily.

I’m sure he has enough. The guy is in his 60’s go golfing in SC and retire

Will be… it’s been the “plan” all along.

I hope this is the wake-up call Ruff et al need to close the door on UPL. That trip was unnecessary, dangerous, and mean. That guy is a dark cloud and needs to go.

Why would they do us any favors?

Stats aside, is that how you felt watching it? Personally, I thought their effort kinda sucked.

Appert would be another bad hire to replace Ruff

There’s no need to trade UPL. Just waive him and thank the Lord if someone else takes him. Someone tell Terry we found a way of saving him more money.

UPL wasn’t outstanding but if he stood on his head we’d have lost 1-0 in the shootout. Gotta score

After UPL's 3 games, Ellis HAS to be the #2.

Follow the money

The thing is I’m not in the least bit surprised. They essentially rolled back the same team except jettisoned one of their top 6 wingers and prospect in exchange for a defenseman and a 3rd line energy guy and actually thought this was a playoff team. 75- 80 points if we are lucky.

Yeah, I don't get the Ruff anger here. The issue is the Pegula, Adams, Forton clan. Hands down. There was no other realistic hire that that group was going to make that's significantly better than Lindy. There just isn't. With Adams in House, Appert is the heir apparent and we'll beg for Lindy back.

The problem with the coaching as been the continuity. Even with a new HC the Sabres used retreads for the rest of the staff. That's just ***** up.

St Louis should've run UPL on their closing powerplay. Just have Parayko go stand in front of the net and fall into him a few times.

I don’t why Lindy sticks around?

Positionally they did.... Sabres outshot the Blues. Sabres had 18 scoring chances to 7 for St. Louis. Sabres had 8 high danger chances to only 4 for the Blues. Sabres almost tripled St. Louis expected goals. Positionally the Sabres played better. They just couldn't score, had a terrible turnover by Quinn, and bad goaltending.

They rushed. They could have kept Granato and then canned him the instant Boston let Montgomery go, as St. Louis did. They could have canned Ruff when Montgomery was let go by Boston -- hey, you didn't want to be HC, how about stay on as advisor immediately. Then, give Montgomery full control over his staff and he and Ruff can combine forces to tell Adams what players can stay or go. Alas, too late.

This team will be out of it come the end of November.

It looks a group collecting checks and saying to management a big FU
