I’m actually starting to believe the Sabres may have the horses to make a playoff run IF they could clear out ALL the coaches and GM. If we had a GM and coaching staff that actually knew what to do with this team, we might be closer than I originally thought. The sooner Adams, Ruff and company are gone, the better. Hopefully our mentally challenged owner wakes up sooner rather than later. But I wont hold my breath. Montreal and Detroit have passed us in the rebuild phase. That is 100% on ownership, management and coaching.

Yes, Virginia, the Sabres defense still stinks.

Great selection

Jays!!

Anchors can be a good thing. 😬

Lyon kept us in the game. It's his net to lose even if UPL is healthy. Quinn is an anchor on any line he's on. He does nothing most nights. Would be nice if Tage and Tuch got it together. Mediocre results for a mediocre roster. Montreal is probably what Adams wishes we were.

He was sooooooooo good.

0-3 start and falling to 2-4 is going to make this game feel worse than it was Pretty bad first period but really good compete from there on out, however it was also met with a really good game by their goalie as well. Felt pretty even after the first though. The Red Wings game will feel massive because of the slow start, can’t drop another 2 in a row after already starting 0-3. Desperately need Tage to get going. In a vacuum if you focus on the play this season and only the play this season so far, the doom and gloom doesn’t make sense in my opinion. Taking into account the lackluster offseason, the 14 year drought and the refusal to fire Kevyn Adams, I understand it. However, I’ll choose to be optimistic instead, and I’ve seen 5 good games, the Colorado and New York games included as they played well through the first 2 periods and just fell apart in the third after not seeing results. All in all, I’ve still got hope they can sneak in in a weak year in the East. On to the next.

How are the Rangers doing with Rempe? I didn’t expect 2 wins.

Some people say this, but how is it "outdated"? Look at how many teams had one or added one this season. It's most definitely not outdated unless you think all those teams are outdated too.

No one wants to hear it but they are playing much better. Lyon is giving them a chance each game. Hopefully Kesselring is back soon and Norris can find some miracle way to get healthy and stay healthy. They need wins now though. No more moral victories

A 2-4 record is about what I expected from this roster at this point

Admins? This is considered acceptable?

Livin' for the whiskey, wine & gin....

Close game. Montreal better in the first. Sabres better in the second. Montreal a little better in the third, especially to start, and thus they get the win. Net front D sunk us again and will continue to sink us I imagine. Power has an unfortunate name, If a power forward drives the net on him or any forward really makes that go to the net power move it's likely a goal against unless the goalie bails him out. Why this kid doesn't use his size I don't know, With his physical gifts if he had a Chris Pronger type mean streak he could be the best D man in the league. As is, he's a disaster around his own net. If they can't change him, even a little, maybe we should move him down the road a spell. Still too many puck movers and not enough defenders. Kulich is a good offensive player but a liability in his own end. Way too soft on the puck and that led to the second Montreal goal. Ruff insists on going strength to strength and I question that strategy because of Kulich but I'm not sure there's a better option either. Metsa was okay. I'd rather he was 7th D than Bryson. I'm not hating Samuelsson so far this year and of course Benson plays the right way and we could use as much of that as we can get. Not horrible, but not good enough. Have to win those divisional games if you want playoffs. Close doesn't count.

He stays just healthy enough.

Montreal is not a good team.

If only the Sabres had a GM who could rectify that issue... <sigh>

He'd be more useful if they made it to more shootouts. But alas, he and Geertsen are both fully at passenger status.

Good thing we didn’t play Östlund. We didn’t need any playmaking or speed tonight. Glad Dunne and Geertsen played 6 minutes each. They really intimidated the Habs.

Well I got tix for Wednesday night, so hoping for a bounce back game. Put that one behind us, it's still early enough to get back in it, but without a few better efforts, we will be out by Christmas.

We are and have been the biggest collection of 98lb weaklings in the NHL for years.!

Quinn is not good. Not sure why, but I still have hope for Power, even though he’s awful at times.

Unless it's shinny, he's a JAG.
