CallawaySabres

Mike Schopp stopped by our tailgate yesterday and we were talking about how soon the Sabres season will get derailed. If Buffalo does not have a decent record by end of November (lots of winnable games IF they are going to be a playoff team), we both thought the season would spiral.

Thanks GOD my son has a soccer game on opening night. It will be the first opener since the 70s that I will miss. Checks phone after 1st period - down 1-0 Checks phone after 2nd period - down 3-0 Final - 5-1 NY

Man, this is going to be one crappy ride, ugh. That roster just screams come stomp on us.

I am at the point where I really don't even care about new injury announcements. I genuinely think they are going to be a mess with the current lineup as it is, or with any of the call-ups. At the same time, I could not care less about the draft position because none of that has helped over the last 15 years either.

I think Levi has to be the only hope. At this point, I don’t even care if they ruin him by bringing him up starting game one. i have no interest in another wasted season…

Total seriousness here, who the hell is going to be their goaltender this year and how can this be such a gigantic question mark 14 years into the drought? The only thing that could possibly save this team is elite goaltending, so how the hell are they going to get above 80 points this year?

This team is not only terrible, they are sooooo boring to watch. Can we at least ice a team with heart if they are going to suck for yet another year…ugh

Ummm, goaltending anyone?

Unless Levi is brought up and can actually perform, these idiots need to trade as many 1st round picks and prospects needed to finally get a real goalie. Nothing else matters this season…

Crowd looks like it’s in mid season form 🤣

I think the problem is that this team would be sunk if they lost ANY of those 3 players (or Dahlin) for a long stretch of time.

Just another player that should have NEVER been on this team after drafted.

Dahlin I will submit to but Power should have spent another year in a league other than the NHL before he was on Sabres. AHL means nothing to me when it comes to being ready for the NHL (see Levi).

Power should have never started that first season Dahlin should never have started his first season either. Quinn was not ready Don't even get me started on Devon Levi

If they actually put Helenius on the roster and rush him, they need to move this team out of Buffalo. If they have not learned their lessons from the previous 100 mistakes of rushing players, I really do give up.

My worst nightmare is that they mis the playoffs again, have one of the best defensive groups, and are the most boring team in hockey to watch.

They could actually do something fun with that if they wanted to. Halloween video intro with players dressing up

Just find a goddamn starting goalie by the first game of the season, please

I can see it. Or why not bring back Dog Days Are Over if you want to bring back relevance.

AC/DC - Thunderstruck, Kid Rock - Bawitdaba, Stones - Street Fighting Man, Shaboozy - A Bar Song, Black Sabbath - Paranoid, Bee Gees -Jive Talkin, Sweet - Fox on the Run, Diana Ross - I'm Coming Out (rap mix version),

I actually got a chuckle out of how freaking terrible those choices are. It fits in perfectly with the whole trainwreck of an organization. I mean, you really have to laugh that they can never get anything right😆 I suppose if you HAD to get the crowd to actually join in, Swords of a Thousand Men would have to be the choice.

Why does it seem that most teams have TWO goalies that can play starter level most of the time? I mean, how is Buffalo ever going to make a push if they don't even have one they can rely on. Maybe it is just because Buffalo is so inept that they continually make back-up goalies look superior year after year. Can you imagine how bad their record would have been if they constantly played against the starters?

I hope Lyon wins the job because I already know the other crap options far too well. I can't believe it was over 3 years ago when many thought Levi was the 2nd coming....yikes. I have given up on pretending Levi is anything other than a backup.

I would trade anybody on this team not named Dahlin. Make this trade happen please and bring some excitement back to the city.

I think there are zero expectations by fans to make the playoffs, but I do think there are expectations on certain players that will never be fulfilled.
