They're bad at playing a simple game. They might have skill, but they don't do the basics very well. Scoring pretty goals is fun. But scoring ugly goals is necessary. Skinner isn't getting the rebound opportunities he was getting during the streak and it shows. Jack and Sam need to do a better job of generating chances. They aren't dangerous enough every time they're on the ice. And they let other teams box them out of the middle way too easily.

Man this sucks

I think it's all those pregame meals at Chef's

This thread was DOA as soon as someone said "alpha". So basic.

That's gonna do it for me.

What a joke

I'd like to see the top line do it...

The Sabres can't get anyone to the middle of the ice while opposing teams make it look easy.

Swhat happens when the only lines getting scoring ops are the bad ones.

It's depressing that our most talented players don't do the things our less talented players do to get zone time. Because Sheary trying to shoot the puck is just not good enough despite his determination.

I'd make that trade.

Evan Rodrigues is a very good boy and I will not have him traded away.

John Bolton is the guy to look to on this idiocy. He would love a new arms race.

I'm stunned you guys don't already have him on ignore. It's pretty obvious that he's a troll.

Hm, you might be right on that. I don't remember his exact language. Nice part about Boyle is he's cheap.

Jeremy White hinting on Twitter that the Sabres are looking at Brian Boyle. Which I guess makes sense if you need to fill the Berglund hole. He's a rental though, which doesn't quite fit Botterill's MO. White's guy is always wrong anyway, right?

How are we feeling about "the market"

Ullmark should get this one tonight and I'll be mad if he doesn't.

You aughta watch Gilmore Girls.

That's what you get, traitor.

On a deeper team he might actually have some value. We'd probably have to retain salary. If Botterill needs a little extra cap for something else at the deadline then moving Pommers for a bag of pucks might help ever so slightly.

I'm not saying don't clear them. Just...don't use a shovel. Use literally anything else.

Yeah. Screw shoveling those sidewalks.

Most embarrassing 1-0 loss I've ever watched. They should be ashamed of themselves for playing like a bag full of cool whip. 4 minutes left in the 3rd and suddenly they find their effort? Take off eh.

If that goal had been scored on the Sabres they would have counted it.
