I agree. Not a fan at all of Phil Housley. I would hire Quinnville. Look at one of my posts about Skinner. If he tests free agency the strides you made this year go right out the window.

Yep. The other teams start picking up their game and Buffalo is fading fast. Just think if you took Skinner off this roster and all his goals. They would be at least 5 more losses. They have made some strides this year because of Skinner and some of their young players but if Skinner tests free agency now you take another step back.

It all depends on who the veterans are. This team is pissing their way out of a playoff spot. Just seeing the obvious but if Skinner isn’t here and having this type of year they would probably be battling for another top 5 pick. This team seems like they are on life support.

They have been in the league for years now and they need to be leaders and lead by example.

Better hope Jason can get Skinner signed because take him off the roster you could throw in way more losses. I like what Bots has done but they seem like they are on life support right now.

Here’s a question for you guys I know we have St. Louis #1 pick, do they keep this years pick and give us next years?

I certainly hope so because I thought that last year as well. The guy is unbelievable with the puck and such a smooth skater. He’s like McDavid of the Eastern conference. Both these players have to carry their teams.

Love it. Can’t stand all the teams in Boston!

That was a huge win! Looks like Eichel is finally getting it. When I watched him last year and this year in Anaheim and In Las Vegas I thought he could dominate shifts once he gets the puck. And this season he’s definitely doing just that.

Wow, talk about coming back and squeaking out a win.

I agree.

I don’t mind losing if these kids come out hustling. Look at Vancouver they are practically in the same boat as far as talent goes but at least they work. I’m gonna keep on saying this but I don’t think Housley is the right guy for this team.

They are back to playing normal again!

That’s a pretty solid road trip. I watched them in Vegas and at least they turned it around. Hopefully they are finally starting to figure this ***** out

I think Buffalo has gotten better in the scouting department but I guess only time will tell. Don’t feel so bad they had a rookie tourney here in Vegas and the participanting teams were Vegas, Colorado, Anaheim, Los Angeles, San Jose and Arizona. I had tickets for all the games and guess which team had the worst players? You guessed it. Arizona. So you want to talk about bad scouting! To me that shouldn’t be happening with teams at the bottom. I can tell you Anaheim had a lot of good young talent. Just goes to show you how good their scouting department is.

I hear you. My niece and nephew live up in Reno and like it. I don’t gamble so these casinos don’t effect me.

People that live here don’t go to the casinos that much. I only go for some shows and restaurants. I have been here since 89

I forgot about Tippet and your right his teams seemed like they always over achieved. I think he would be tougher than Housley.

I’m a season ticket holder here in Vegas and the Golden Knights compete. Yes they are an older team but all the players respect Gallant and he lets them play. He expects them to play hard. They started off the season slow due to the Schmidt suspension and Tuch injury. Both will be back soon and they should pick it up. I know all these teams play some systems but sometimes I think these players don’t like these systems. When I lived in Buffalo I really didn’t pay too much attention to the Bills as I fell more in love with the Sabres. I have always felt that both teams better have great scouting and that they better build both teams thru the draft because they have been practically farm teams for both leagues. Most don’t want to hear this but a lot of quality players don’t want to go to Buffalo. I still believe in this draft philosophy for both teams.

Agree with this 100%

I know the game in Vegas Risto stunk. He should have been more aggressive on Eakins shortie. I hate to say it but these players have had bad coaching and bad players to play with and they are getting bad habits. This team needs a coaching staff that expects more and they need a swift kick in the ass.

I agree with this. I agree after watching him in Vegas.

I agree. Ruff would be better

He’s too soft. Then need a tough coach to get the most out of these guys and let’s face it, it’s not Housley.

Hate to say it because I can’t stand Los Angeles but they will beat us.
