Ideal but Tanev has a no trade 10 team least. Gotta think Buffalo is #1 or #2 team on most players list

giving up Power and / or Cozens would require a huge return otherwise I'm keeping them as well. Levi is another I'm not trading. Tuch would also be a guy I would be hesitant to trade Juri Kulich would be the one prospect that I wouldn't trade you have enough prospects , draft picks and roster players not named above to make a substantial trade

But he's a positive influence on Power and Dahlin lol scary part of this season the D is basically Dahlin and a bunch of guys who play is at best 3rd pair power and Samuelson should be relegated to bottom pair but there is no one to take their place in the top 4 that's Adams issue to resolve immediately

I honestly tried to stand behind Granato and wanted them to give him a chance with a full line-up but after last night I've changed my mind. No longer can an assistant coach be a sacrificial lamb, the head coach needs to go we are now seeing regression across the board, defence that borders on keystone cops, and effort that only seems to show up against the top clubs in the league. I imagine they are going to play well the next few games vs the Leafs, Rangers and Boston and then regress back to form vs Columbus on the 30th If I was Adams, I would have a long hard look at myself to fully realize my role in the debacle of the 23/24 season. From not bringing in a Vet Goalie, to not replacing Quinn externally and only signing 2 bottom pair defenders in Free Agency. I would learn from this and then go fire my coach and put Appert in as an Interm coach. No matter how well they do to end the year, you go out and hire the best coach available...you will have to hope that either Brind'Amour and / or Cooper are available to hire. I do want to believe brining in RB'M was the goal from the onset but we will see Over the holidays, I talk to every team in the league that has a legit top 4 dman available and you pay the price using draft picks, prospects and roster players.

Are we expecting a press conference today ? I say there is a 10% chance of it

This is true but he isn't going to fire himself. Donnie needs to go tomorrow

Reporting the a "fire Donny" chant was pretty loud and clear tonight not sure you would hear it next game vs the leafs "go leafs go" but all those going to the game need to chanting "fire Donny" from the opening face-off

There are very few on this site that go to the games. Plus Half the building are fans of the opposition most nights

I would love to see a fan revolt but the truth is there is so much apathy in the fan base no one has the passion / care to the lead and do something about it like myself. I'm goin to get ready for bed and not think much about them again until Thurs. I just don't care enough anymore to get mad

I won't be surprised if they play well and win. Of course they will stink up the arena in their following game

Only 9 against. Probably not enough to get Don fired. I thought they should give him a full line up to see what they can do in January but it's time fire Granato tomorrow

Maybe those who want Don fired need to go to a game and sit in the same section let our voices be heard

The joy of Leaf fans over running the building on Thurs. Then again the leafs are good so maybe the Sabres will actually have half an effort

UPL. You wait till 9 before you make a couple of saves 🤬

We Want 10!!!

I agree but tonight's not the night to think about it

Part of me would have loved to see the comeback but for the greater good the blow out has to continue 10 or 11 against needs to happen

Has either goalie made any sort of difficult save tonight ?

10-2

I'm hoping it gets to 10-1 or worse. players have bailed on Granato Need some fan jerseys on the ice tonight fire Granato tonight and bring in someone and place the intern tag on them but can coach some sort of defensive system and make players accountable hire Brind'Amour in off season Btw what coach plays his 40 goal scorer with a bad hand on the PK in a 6-1 game ???

Finally. I'm sure it's been said up thread but do Comrie next

100%. Even if it's just a scape goat. Sometimes you need to make a move to stop players being comfortable.

I still care. I watch and I hope but I get over losses pretty fast helps that I rarely ever look at the standings anymore I also find that I'm not watching a lot of games not involving the Sabres as i would be if they were better

But when you are the wrong side over and over again, then there is a cause ... in this case coaching

They need to take a page from the Bills playbook and fire an assistant coach sorry Matt Ellis, you may or may not deserve it but you must be sacrificed
