The only way you’d be happy is if Granato killed himself screaming at the refs

So bloody aggravating how the refs seem very one sided.

These refs are in the Rangers pockets

Another BS extra 2 min for daring to protect our other guys.

Why are you so utterly obsessed with critiquing the freaking pregame show?

Effectively we don't have penny pinching owners who immediately trade away anyone wanting money. We are very likely secure in Buffalo Management varies in competence from person to person and year to year The Sabres are inept and feel cursed but are far from the "worst" franchise in sports. If its based on Playoffs, we are tied with the Jets barring a miracle run this season. If its based on Championships, we aren't even in the first page of more embarrassing droughts. There isn't a team in sports who haven't had low points and some baseball teams can go decades with little to no success. I'd honestly argue the LA Angels are more inept seeing as they had two of the best baseball players in the league and failed to do anything with them whatsoever. The Angels are at 9 years of futility but unlike us had two literal super players on their roster for half that time and one the entire tenure.

Colorado Rockies, literally bribed the Cardinals to take their best player. Detroit Pistons are on a 25 game losing streak. Oakland As are getting moved after 20 years of getting cheaper every year. The NY Jets have just as long of a playoff drought as well as a literal loon at QB. Arizona Coyotes who lack a legit stadium and have multiple times got into hot water over not paying staff and/or players. Pittsburgh Pirates are just too cheap to get anywhere. The Indianapolis Colts owner is literally bonkers The KC Royals have the worst record in baseball since 2007 and have been terrible in all but 2 years in which they won and lost a World Series strangely enough. Also super cheap ownership. I could probably think of more but I’m tired of listing already. And that doesn’t even include European franchises.

The Sabres have a bad organization no doubt, but no where near the worst in all of pro sports

The guy rants about the Leafs and has done it for at least a decade. Even gained a job with Sportsnet I believe for a couple years before leaving again due to the success of his podcast. Why he has a following is because he's the average angry fan.

The rest of the quote did show Dahls felt it was on them; he wasn't blaming the fans for their play. It was more akin to the team being angry that their problems were being blamed on Granato

Is it true we are 6th in 5v5 scoring? That would make me think it’s more on our Powerplay being broken. Regardless I’d rather them play open and try to win like last year. After all they have a slightly better group in 2 way play with Good Greenway and Benson now.

I’m both disappointed and ok with it strangely enough. What he did was idiotic and underhanded as well as attempted destruction of property but didn’t actually hurt anyone. So Carson is a brain dead jackass but that isn’t exactly prison worthy.

As I mentioned on Twitter, perhaps this could be their version of NJ’s fan yelling about Ruff last season and then apologizing after a win streak.

That corner in our zone must of had a lot of snow seeing as at least 3 pucks died there

The Buffalo Enigmas We can’t beat bad teams but we’ll shellshock top teams.

Hodgson, what could been if he hadn’t had a bad back issue. He showed flashes of being a solid 2C. Keep scoring a beating up Leafs

No, no no they shouldn't be available for a myriad of reasons

I'd be insane not to take that deal lol; its more in realistic terms

Pretty much, the general idea for Granato was that offense begets confidence and confidence makes learning defensive structure easier. Step 1 worked well for the most part however for a myriad of reasons the players seem unable or unwilling to adjust to a more well-rounded game. Some players have embraced playing defense more than others; Tage up to his hand injury looked far more active defensively and Mitts was back checking hard. Cozens seems mentally paralyzed due to the combination of trying to get his offense on track and simultaneously learning NHL level defensive positioning. Then there’s some players like Skinner and usually Olofsson whom just don’t play defense or they’ll cheat a lot. They likely look disjointed many nights due to this incomplete buyin. It might explain why we do well against top teams seeing as the team as a whole are more likely to buy in to a system in an underdog game.

Technically that’s 50% It should be a gif of Romans being killed by commanders. 🙂

1st overall picks don’t get left in college for 2 years because they have an easy out to UFA-hood in that case. Levi should of likely been in Rochester but has certainly shown the ability to play in the NHL

I've always been emotionally attached to players on the team. I've watched Dahlin since he was an 18 year old; last thing I want to see is him get traded and succeed elsewhere.

The fact anyone wants to move Dahlin is borderline insane.

Cozens is good, cold so far this year but good.

Yes, Dahlin, Tage, Cozens and Tuch. Power I’d be more angry because he’d likely be yet another star being traded only to blossom elsewhere.
