I don’t see it as a given that he gets in any games any time soon

Losing Samuelsson and 50% Dahlin is severely hurting the team defense. They have struggled almost every game without Mattias. They will also struggle if Dahlin isn’t close to 100%. Those things together add up to bad team defense.

I’d also like a billion dollars. I know the likelihood of either happening.

I agree that playoffs were not very realistic to start the season. Then they were better than we all thought and have regressed back to what we thought they’d be all along. Challenging for a playoff spot at this point in the season. It’s been largely disappointing mainly due to their own success. They need a more well rounded roster. You aren’t going to win games that matter with 14 offense first forwards and 2/3 of your D being offense first as well, especially with below average goaltending. I really like Okposo and Girgs but I need more out of those kind of players. More offense, more hitting, harder to play against. They also need to figure out something with 71, 37, 17. Maybe Jost is worth keeping but I’m not sure. The D needs at least one significant addition and a couple rugged D first options. Not sure if 61 fills that bill. After a promising start, it seems to have been fueled by adrenaline. I’d like to see 5-8 new faces next season. I don’t think Kulich or Savoie are going to help the roster diversity much. Kinda more of what you already have. If they want to upgrade 37 & 71 with those two, it makes sense. Still like to see a couple rugged forwards who are defensively minded that other teams can’t stand. Though Greenway could fill one of those slots but he looks not very good at this point. Maybe pairing 12 with those rugged guys would get more out of him and solidify the bottom. This team is hardly a finished product. I’m hoping at the very least they do a minor retooling with the roster. Goaltending will sort itself out. Let Levi, UPL and Comrie battle it out next season and let the two best take the jobs. Not opposed to bring it a sold vet goalie for a season but I don’t think it’s happening. I think the future is bright. Now Kevyn needs to show us what he’s worth. Complete this roster and make it a contender.

I’d go with disgusting or inhumane. When I hear disturbing is regards to video, I think violence.

Cal Peterson is the only one I’m aware of as far as drafted college players go. Those two still haven’t signed elsewhere. Maybe they will. Whatever. But Buffalo fans act like this is an annual thing that’s happened once in 50 years.

I’m 💯 % certain it’s already in this thread but how many times has a player drafted by the Sabres failed to sign with them? Cal Peterson and…

If he is the Sabres best forward in 5 years, this team will win multiple cups.

Tell me more about this weed infested lawn you have…

Granato admitted as much after the game (Dahlin nursing an injury)

That felt good

Honestly, let’s face it, this dudes jersey number sucked out loud.

It’s expensive fat guy season

I’ve heard he’s the best Sabres draft pick since Ryan Miller. Oof.

This argument rears its ugly head every season. Annual reminder to all (not you), letters don’t lead, people do. I don’t care if all the players wear a big D on their sweaters, guys who are leaders will lead. The players and coaches know who that is and will follow them regardless of letter.

I didn’t post last game. Frustration was building.

AND SOMEHOW THE ***** GAME IS TIED!!

If I’m granato I’m throwing all the sticks on the ice. They haven’t called ***** on the rangers all game and they call that. SMH.

Scoreboard Not if we bring in better players

I hope Granato benches 71 the rest of the game. Lazy POS.

They are all still trying to be too cute. If last game wasn’t the perfect example of why it won’t work, these guys ain’t gonna figure it out. Time to start evaluating who we want moving forward and who we don’t.

At least 8 new faces next season, ***** these guys

I’m at my wits end with Olofsson
