He's among many highly touted young players. Are these players not the problem? The Sabres are close to being the NHL's worst team. There's a huge disconnect somewhere. We want to finger Terry (gross), insert name of GM (gross) or blame the coach, but maybe these players just flat out can't play winning hockey. I bet the 75 Caps had some talented players.

It was a shot at posters who have been telling us how great our players are going back literally years. Cozens Quinn Samuelsson among the current disappointments. Should there not be a reckoning? They don't practically contribute to winning hockey. Unless you're just carrying the franchise's water and dealing Hopium, what's the point? Dahlin's great. And he's never made a big play in a meaningful win for the Buffalo Sabres. In the most important measure of a player, he is still a prospect. No one knows how he'll perform in a playoff game.

Maybe. Am I broken? I don't care if I ever see any of these guys in a Sabres uniform again. I'd miss Zach, I guess. I think I'd rather be broken than sit around and concoct mathematical evidence that we actually have great players.

Incredible. Analytics says the Sabres have so many amaaaaazing players. Yet all they do is lose, year after year. It's all Dahlin has done for seven (?) years. Does this not have to be taken into account? Does "season effect" get considered? Because when the seasons are new, when they're slipping away, all I see is suckitude. You got some goals and assists? A notable goals for against projected 60 5 on 5? Wonderful. You don't know how to play winning hockey. How anyone can be married to any player on the roster? Bowen ***** Byram? Who cares.

Here's exclusive footage of the youngest team in hockey making itself seem big and scary to the rest of the league.

Another one.

Seems like most of these are snips of goals songs. Maybe @That Aud Smell can offer what is missing.

"Terry has instructed me to trade every young, entitled shithead on this team for as many grownass, divorced, mentally disturbed men with one testicle that hangs much lower than the other as possible."

It doesn't have to be... then I hear Jiri Kulich is untouchable.

Those five players? Dom Mario Wayne Raymond Young Patrick.

@Thorner I mean, what COULD KA have done?

Removed his entrails? Is there video?

If no one volunteers, I will have to call on someone.

Incel Day is Feb. 15. Check your news feed often.

I'm pretty sure people were worried about the team leaving if OSP sold. Hell, he found a new owner willing to keep the team in Buffalo without even trying. Terry came knocking on the door. Golly gee Terry really wanted to own the Sabres and right quick. What imminent event made him in such a big hurry?

82+18? They lost TWO playoff games? Egregious.

Honesty? @Sabres Fan in NS Honestly the thing that is keeping me engaged and hopeful is humility of all things. I am deathly afraid of pulling the plug now, then having the daring vision of Tervyn come to fruition. Now, if that doesn't come to pass, and Terry doesn't make the wholesale change he'd clearly need to make, all bets are off. It would be akin to Ralph taking a home game to Trono, a sign he had no interest in winning. That move was the nail in my Bills coffin.

All of the above?

The reason is everything. Good teams and committed owners down through the years have strategically not spent to the cap while waiting for the right time to strike. If I can have my own set of facts: Terry meddles. He hires inexperienced people who both enable his meddling and kneecap themselves in the process. Terry cares, is not absentee and wants to win. He enacted E to the 3 during Covid, but it's not related to the team continuing to spend below the cap. Most likely in my mind the reason is what GMHD said it is. In the end, hats off to Terry for near-criminally mismanaging the team and forcing us to argue amongst ourselves.

So your theory must be the most plausible one?

As long as you admit "Terry is cheap and doesn't care" is itself a conspiracy theory, we are good.

Do I have this right? Not one commercial aviation accident in the US involving a fatality from Colgan Air in 2009 through the beginning of this year. And now FOUR in less than two weeks?

The logic can be circular. Why did the hires not turn out to be the right person? Spoiler alert: GMJB might still be the GM if he didn't quit over OTP meddling.

Who decided to tank? Terry or Darcy? If Terry, was it his decision to make about how to best fulfill his stated mission of winning a Cup? My goodness, this is disheartening, but a sign of the times where people have to defend the fact that the earth is round. Terry can be cheap AND meddle. It also might be GMHD keeping his powder dry.
