I don't know how good they are at assistant coaches - but it would seem mad for NHL franchises with young players not to have dedicated development coaches (unless it brings too many cooks or something)

Impressive what he has achieved whilst playing injured. And not a surgery that will likely have an impact going forward I don’t think Eichel was draft eligible when we drafted Quinn

Lidstrom and Bergeron are two people who wore an A admirably for a long period when they could have been captain. Eichel won't be stripped of the C - especially when you're trying to assure him the 7th time really is the charm

Staal has one goal, no assists and is a -8 in his eight games with the Habs. Their fans are calling for him to be scratched and describe his play as listless and coasting. Well done Adams.

Yeah - but I believe we are now officially eliminated

RIP playoff hopes

I much prefer sports teams social media to be interesting and fun. Far too many take a boring corporate attitude. Give me Gritty and give me chaos. It's meant to be entertaining

I'm enjoying Casey's recovery into a good player. But man Cozens is something else - he feels like he will be the beating heart of this team for years to come.

I'm sure the Rangers will enjoy that. And we can probably enjoy Strome and a second

Sabres fans: 'I hate that this team has a losing culture. It needs to change' Also Sabres fans: 'I wish this team would stop winning, it's damaging our draft odds'

Fun game to watch - which is mostly what I care about. good battle by the sabres

This and the Philly game give me hope for the future of this team. Feels like a spirit is slowly being forged into them

Dahlin makes some lovely plays. He is a player who you need a coach to just let him play by instinct

Yeah it’s worse! The Buffalo Sabres nemesis - the no name backup goalie

We are still in this game. And there have been some nice moments

Nice response by Tage

Nice play by Dahlin - intercept then nice pass to R2

That’s probably a goal if we have a few seconds on the clock

Anaemic power play

What was Sheehan doing on that goal? Made about five bizarre / bad plays

Hall with a giveaway in the defensive zone and icing it. Nice

Wave Eakin and send him there instead

Does Jack still Play for the Sabres? I have never known so little information to be provided about a teams star player when they’re injured. As far as I know, we don’t know his injury, the timeline or his return, his thoughts on the coaching change, comments on player development etc. We know nothing - it’s like he has just taken off to live in a cabin in the woods to get away from it all. Has he played his last game as a Sabre?

I think we probably get destroyed and Hall remembers how to score / pass. However, I would seriously love it if we beat the Bruins 6 times in the remaining schedule and put them out of the playoffs. If I were a Sabre that would be my objective.

I don’t really understand people’s anger. Hall basically said he would only waive for one team. That team knew it, and is also sitting on the bubble, so didn’t want to go all in. They offered a third knowing it was take the third or get nothing. They then got slammed by the caps and made it a second. Yes, this happened because of the NMC. But you have to give those out. Buffalo isn’t seen as the best place to play. As a result the players have the power. Someone probably takes a discount and no trade protection to play for TB, as they think winning the cup is worth it. Whereas the Sabres are realistically 2 years minimum from making the playoffs again. Therefore in order to attract the best talent you have to show you are a good place for players to be - that you will respect and help them in their careers. Yeah it sucks. But that’s the cost when you haven’t made the playoffs in 10 years and have a dismal future for the next season.
