    Not over yet and I don’t want to jinx it, and I was wrong about Hellebuyck apparently (yeesh) but: 

     

     

    It’s really their D AND offence that has let them down. They seem ill-equipped for playoff puck 

    This is what is very strange to me. The Jets bitch slapped us up and down the ice The last time we played them. After that game, I wanted nothing more than to have a roster like theirs. Not quite sure what is going on over there in Winnipeg.

  2. This Boston Toronto series is exactly why we really needed to get into the playoffs. The team, as it is currently constructed would be absolutely ragdolled from start to finish. It would actually be embarrassing. The good part about that is that this idiot GM would finally realize how to build a team.

    Lindy is what? 64? He's not going to want to coach forever (I assume.) What if you brought back Lindy Ruff while promoting Seth Appert to an associate HC role and presumed heir to the job after Ruff retires?

    I don't HATE that idea but I just don't know if I want Ruff back her at at all, even though I loved his time here.

    Quotes like this are up there with the most embarrassing experiences of the drought imo. Just a complete joke of a season from day zero. 

    Yup, and and as a season ticket holder (ex now), it pisses me off even more. This team is currently rotten, I mean rotten to the core. I hope the next coach makes their lives MISERABLE from day one, they all deserve it.

  5. I talked to my St Louis contact and he said that people were actually pissed when he was fired but they felt like they needed a new voice. They did go on a 14-6 run right after he was fired. He was liked by players even though he was tough on them. I like the sound of that...

  6. There is that accountable piece...in case this was not posted yet.

    Alex Tuch super enthused when I brought up Lindy and Gerard Gallant (“Turky”) as Granato replacements. Joked he’s seen more #Sabres games coached by Ruff than he’s played in. Loved how Gallant held him accountable during his #VGK career.

    Can always depend on Cal to express the most desolate version of Sabres fandom.

    I suspect the opposite would also be true. Hope someday we get a chance to see that.

    I would love to see it too. Nobody gets more passionate than me when this team is rolling. I miss that atmosphere in the building more than you can ever know.

  8. First off, I don't think there is a prayer they are making the playoffs next year without a major overhaul to this roster. The coach and GM are likely coming back and once this team craps itself again to start the season, the home atmosphere will continue to be one of the worst in the NHL. The problem they have of missing the playoffs yet again, is that they are not getting any experience with that style of hockey. Once they do finally make it, it's going to most likely take another year to do any damage.

    I did not watch last night until the last 5 minutes of the game and could not have cared less about the outcome. I just don't understand how this owner can be content with not only missing the playoffs again, but looking like one of the worst teams in the league more times than not. They need to trade their top prospect and 1st round pick to try and land a legit 2 way center to push Cozens down to the 3rd line. I doubt any of these things will happen as they hope the next round of youth movements will save the day.

    My son said last night that he just wishes he could see 1 playoff game before he goes to college. They have 2 years to make that happen and my daughter (their biggest fan) never saw 1. THAT is why I hate this team so much...
