Bad team missing a bunch of starters struggles in opener people lose their minds. Why do you all continue to do this to yourselves?

Pretty sure you're getting the highlighted one, unfortunately.

I am not in his boat but i understand where he's coming from. We all know people who have said what he said and left this organization in the dust. It's not just one game, you're missing the whole picture. It's 14-15 years of the same. They are a soulless organization, very poorly run, have no identity. Im sticking around, probably because im a sucker, because they are not turning it around with this team, these coaches and this front office. No chance. No way. Only way to think so is if you live under a rock. And im not saying this because of one game. I've said this all summer when they decided to keep Adams and the coaches.

I was looking forward to a series of Delta Force, Missing in Action, Octagon, and Invasion USA fodder this season. The highbrow Norris, if you will. But this feels more appropriate today

Would bet a bunch they will force their trades if this season goes bad. They both are millionaires many times over. They are playing for glory with their contracts. Pegula, Adams, Ruff, and Appert offer no path to glory, imo. The indifference and incompetence of these men has produced only a growing animus among the fan base the past couple years. Dahlin and Thompson will have to rally their teammates to do it themselves. I’m rooting for them.

He tore an oblique or something else in his abdomen on the faceoff.

Bettman, definitely has some Parkinson’s going on. Not sure I would call Terry a great owner. Take Allen off the Bills and they are towards the bottom of the league. The Sabres ever since he brought the team have been a dumpster fire and are unwatchable. Players don’t want to play here unless being overpaid.

Saw him go down in a pile of players by the net at one point. Guessing this is when the injury occurred. Maybe that last faceoff he took before doing a split and face plant on the dot took him out.

Norris buyout numbers for next summer(link below). If he ends up being out more than 1/2 of this season, I would consider it. Disclaimer…if he is bought out, no doubt he would start dressing for 82 games a year for some other team. 😂 https://puckpedia.com/player/joshua-norris/buyout

Norris is worse than injury prone. He is a china doll. Want to hear what his multi week injury is this time. Muscle tear? Rotator cuff tear? Neck injury? His lower body is fine, so he can skate. Must be something a cortisone shot can’t help. Saw a close up of Norris on the bench shortly after he left the ice. He gave no indication of pain. No wincing, no gritted teeth. Just a blank face.

Tanking for McKenna

Steep price to pay to get rid of Cozens and his cap hit. Is there such a thing in the NHL as a waive/injury settlement?

I’ve seen him enough on the Silver Knights last season and you didn’t even notice him when he was on the ice. Brutal pickup by the Sabres and then you wonder why it’s 14 yrs of no playoffs. I know it’s Hockey Buzz but Tuch possibly to Florida, I know, I know take it with a grain of salt.

I used to be "terrific" on a skateboard till I crashed and broke both legs

What a bunch of lip service BS! He cares so much about winning that he changed nothing in 5 years.

He sticks out on this team like a sore thumb -- an NHL calibre player who plays with obvious heart and desire.

Probably the worst owner in the league

I don't agree about Benson or Zucker. This isn't football.

Benson and Kulich do indeed have top 6 skill, but I am saying legit Top 6, as in no question about it. Benson has 21 goals in his first 146 NHL games. Kulich has 15 goals and 28 points in one NHL season. They have skill but they are not going to be top 6 on good teams. Zucker is a fine player, but he would be a 3rd liner on a good team. People want to win more games right now. They need players that are better right now.

I have stood by the team for the past 25 years, and I have nothing left to give. I have pretty much sold every single Sabres Item that I have except for this clock with a slug logo on it, and a Sabres winter hat. I don’t want to sound like a bandwagon fan, but I think I won’t care about this team until I see them actually make some progress. I have given too much of my time to this team, just for them to waste it I’ll be like that couple that legally separates while they’re in their 30s but Then gets back together in their 50s

He was crashing the net all night and Schneider didn't like it. Neither did Borgen later in the game. Borgen took a penalty for ripping his helmet off. Zucker was a bright spot and he played with emotion. Very few others did.

Benson and Kulich have Top 6 skill and Zucker is a former Top 6 guy. I do agree though that Kevyn blew it.

Only Tage and Tuch are legit Top 6 players. Sorry Kevyn but you blew it again. I think you will see Helenius up by December.

Buffalo center spline is maybe better than Boston's and that is it. And to get there you must include Norris or put Thompson back in place of Norris. I complained about the center spline a lot last season and they replaced Cozen with Norris. That only works if Norris can actually play in the games. McLeod is a 3rd liner that can help top 6 a little bit. Krebs and Kozak are JAGs.

What's the old saying, "The best ability is availability." Josh Norris had a clear, well known medical and injury history. The genius GM with an internet Master's degree with no prior experience as a GM decided this was a good deal for the Sabres. Yikes! Kevyn Adams might be a nice guy, but he is entirely unqualified to be a GM and his record proves it. No opinion, just fact!
