We're on the same page here. The forwards are as much to blame as anyone for how sloppy this team is in its own end.

And it's not like this team is scoring buckets of goals every game either. They lost 1-0 to Dallas and Ullmark was their best player that night. 11 of their 19 losses since the streak ended were games where they only scored 1 or 2 goals.

Good. We could use him back in the lineup here.

This is correct.

PA, I can't get to "the goaltending is lacking" when I watch our forwards constantly blow their coverages in the D zone. This team is a defensive train wreck right now. It's like no one knows what they're supposed to be doing.

Thing is, that's the quiet part that you don't say out loud. Housley might be frustrated with the roster, but he needs to keep that between himself and Botterill like any other NHL coach would do.

You're completely right in feeling concerned.

I don't know what Housley's going for with those comments, but that'll get a guy fired.

I want to hope that Vogl heard it wrong and Sam said "guys" not "goalies". But Vogl is going with it and my reaction is ?

I don't know what Sam is thinking with this.

There are some really weird comments coming from the players and Phil...

Man, getting a point is needed, but I really would have liked to get two in a row tonight. It's crazy that they can't even just luck into it. The blown coverages and non-cerebral plays are just killing them.

Total lack of situational awareness by the captain.

Agreed. Really poor mental effort from him tonight.

That was stupid. Dahlin needed to change. These guys do it to themselves.

YESSSSSSS

Pull the goalie.

Great work by Casey and Sam to set that up. Goalie was lost.

It's ridiculous. Skinner gets abused every night and it's like the refs are always looking to put him in the box.

Are the refs drunk?

Dahlin with some moves

Oh Casey. You gotta just shoot that bud.

4 Sabres down low doing...what...exactly?

A red sharpie to touch up Ullmark's posts.
