  1. Honestly, I think it's time for a coaching change. Granato was good for the turnaround. But to get to the next level, they need a better coach.
  2. Hey. UPL has been in the Sabres system 5+ years? and he’s just now showing like he’s getting it. I think we expected Levi to show up in year 1 at the NHL level and kill it. He’s definitely not killing it, but not getting embarrassed too much either. He will mature, understand the nuances to the NHL and the speed will be easier to manage. I don’t think it will take him 5 years to become really solid.
  3. If the Sabres can play this type of road game at home, they’d have something and win a lot more. As others have said, they seem to pack it in with 1 goal leads and don’t try to put the game away. They get tied late or lose games late way too often. Rough ending. I like Levi but was hoping he’d be a savior this season. Nope, he’s not a savior yet.
  4. TB scores with 5 seconds remaining to tie Boston and guarantee a point. That’s how good teams do it. They don’t stand for regulation losses, play hard to the end and get the point., then Hagel scores in OT to grab the two points.
  5. Right before the season even Tuch said publicly it’s a playoff year. He said The fans deserve it as does the organization. So it’s a playoffs season or bust. There’s no consolation for developing players or whatever. It’s playoffs or you failed this season.
  6. Yeah the way the Eastern Conference looks, it’s just about time to put a wrap on the season. You can’t fall several points behind the pace and hope to hopscotch a bunch of teams after New Years. Not gonna happen.
  7. The close regulation losses crush this team every season. Just cannot find their way to OT often enough. when times are tough they need to find a way to scrounge out a point and stay in this race.
  8. Good Tuch. The Sabres just can’t go on one of those long losing streaks
  9. The vibe feels like the team is about to lose the next 8 of 10., with most being regulation losses.
  10. I noticed that too and thought it was really strange. We all know the guy's name. Even more bizarre is how his home crowd applauded for him at his first appearance back (even tho he didn't play). How can anyone cheer for this guy? His reckless nonsense killed a man on the ice.
  11. They've made zero progress other than having some good individual players in the system. Other organizations over the past 12 years have made the playoffs, then had down cycles then had rebuilds, etc.. While the Sabres just stay around the bottom consistently. Terry, please sell the team.
  12. The Capitals have a new coach and they started the season awful. They have several new players I've never heard of. They've had some injuries. They beat Las Vegas last night and now won 7 of their last 9. But Buffalo has this amazing pipeline of young guys! SO where the heck are they? We should be better than the Caps this season.
  13. Ugh, this sucks. And now the regulation losses will pile up unless players exceed expectation. I think back to last season. Guys were having career seasons. ya gotta take advantage. There’s no guarantees for tomorrow
  14. I decided to watch Sabres tonight to make me feel better from last nights Bills game. I’m feeling a bit nauseous now. Just no hope in Buffalo pro sports. regression.
  15. Last year it seemed like the Sabres were really good at puck possession and obviously scoring. What happened to that club? They are so boring to watch nowadays and last night was just a stolen game by Levi. I didn’t think Buffalo played very well, especially a rested home game against a team on a back to back.
  16. That team played last night, The Sabres should be able to dominate play.
  17. Sabres seem to allow too many high danger chances on the PK. I mean that and the faceoffs will kill them.
  18. Sabres broke a streak of 7 straight regulation losses in Raleigh.
  19. Disagree. Sabres never beat Carolina. They are a mediocre team at best right now. UPL rebounded, they got the tying goal in the 3rd. take the point be happy.
  20. I’m in the minority but i’m still very happy to get the game to OT. Last year we didn’t get enough losers points which cost us. we would’ve lost that game 2-1 in regulation.
  21. Gotta get the game at least to OT. Must get a point. Can’t give up that 3rd period tie breaking goal they so often do
  22. If the Sabres can ever figure out how to beat Carolina and Boston they might have something. Tonight would be a good start. At least last they've finally been able to gets some points from the Florida teams the past couple years. That was another problem.
  23. Jeez, Kucherov has 4 points in the first 12 minutes of the first period. Is UPL playing for Toronto?!? oof
