4 missed nets by Tuch so far.
At least he’s consistent in showing he’s a bottom six guy.

Clifton about to catch Krebs in goals scored 😂

Why? Why can so many others teams turn it around with the right coach but not the Sabres ?
Gotta have the right coach which means the right GM which means the right Pres of Hockey O…… never mind.

Good on Rivet calling Harrington out on his ***** here.
I’m definitely tuning into After the Whistle tomorrow.

Ask me once we start the pre season. For now I say:
- We have one good goalie until proven otherwise.
- Quinn should be back, and that helps.
- Thompson should be healthy and ready to get back on track as a goal scorer.
- Defense is almost there but lacking the big force that clears the front of the net and pounds opponents
- We must add 2 centers and 2 wingers
Tuch - Tage - Skinner
Quinn - Cozens - Peterka
Benson - New 2C/3C - New Power Forward
Greenway - New 4C - New Winger
Spare: Krebs and TBD
Flush: VO, Girgs
To AHL: Jost, Robinson
If your team has TNT and Tuch on the first line, your team isn’t making the playoffs. Not saying they’re bad but neither is a first liner in their positions.

Botterill was fired because he refused to cut staff. Murray because he didn’t build a team aligned with his HC’s scheme. Regier because he had lots of money and still couldn’t get it done during TPegs’ early years.
Terry wouldn’t have to fire so many people if he could find better GMs. That would necessitate he admit he doesn’t know his a** from a hole in the ground about the NHL. Which would, of course, allow Buffalo to attract a qualified GM to get this team into the playoffs. I don’t think Terry has a plan if Kevyn keeps failing. Not many eager to have thay guy second-guesssing a GM or meddling in personnel.
I still don’t understand why we keep hiring unproven GMs and coaches. A team in this phase needs experience all around.

This team needs some type of veteran presence. Tuch, Skinner, and Girgs don’t count. Need guys with playoff experience to guide these younger players through the season because they know what it takes. This learn as a group thing is dumb.

Overwhelmed again… Granato has no response… Our guys have no pride… Getting beat in every measurement… Start checking… Create some energy…
Granato and the players. He’s not the one that isn’t skating hard, losing coverage, and not shooting. Granato lost this team a long time ago.

“If you watch our games we put in a lot of effort” - Alex Tuch, literally
This team will go deep in the playoffs when proper construction relegates TNT to 2C and Tuch to 3W. Not saying they are bad players but neither are top liners on a contender IMO.

Zero intensity. I’ve been on the fire Donny bandwagon but some of these players need to go.

I think we know how this one ends.

VO really is a wimp. Crushed by Quinn Hughes.
He really is. Softer than baby 💩

Levi giving up a lot of dangerous rebounds.

Well, Rivet said the kid was hungry to prove himself. I’m more worried about the team winning so let’s get UPL in there.

Second PP unit had nobody in front. Bunch of perimeter play.

I don’t want Levi in net but here’s hoping he steals a win.

Every time I see this thread title, I think of Britney Spears singing whoops I did it again.

What I don't understand is how people who supposedly have eyes to read
and ears to listen can continue to make mistakes that the (once) majority
does not.Rob Ray will say, "I had went to the bar" or "the puck had came out to
the point." These should be: "I had gone to the bar" and "the puck
had come out to the point". It's called the "Past Perfect".I found these explanations online:
--
"There are four past tense forms in English:
Past simple: I worked
Past continuous: I was working
Past perfect: I had worked
Past perfect continuous: I had been working"
(https://learnenglish.britishcouncil.org/grammar/english-grammar-reference/past-tense)---

The following is a list of Irregular Verbs in English:
Verb Past Simple Past Participle
==========================================
arise arose arisen
babysit babysat babysat
be was / were been
beat beat beaten
become became become
begin began begun
[snip]...
win won won
withdraw withdrew withdrawn
write wrote written
==========================================
* HANG - Hang has two different meanings. The first is "to attach (or hang) something in a high position" (e.g. on the wall or on a hook). In this case we use the above verbs Hang-Hung-Hung.BUT when Hang means "to kill someone by putting a rope around someone's neck and leaving them in a high position without any support", we use different verbs: Hang-Hanged-hanged. This verb is typical of public executions in the past. (e.g. They hanged him in the main square.)
** LIE - Lie has two meanings. When it means "to put your body in a horizontal position" (normally on a bed) it uses the Lie-Lay-Lain verbs.
BUT it is regular Lie-Lied-Lied when it has the other meaning of "not to say the truth". [Etienne - for 4 thousand years Indo-Europeans have been able to properly distinguish between these two usages, but Americans in the last 40 years have seemingly lost this ability.]

I'll mention another more common problem. The infinitive. This is the "to [verb]"
form, such as "I want *to* eat lunch" or "I will try *to* ignore bad grammar".
So many people say the illogical "I will try *and* do something"; this would
imply that you can read the future because you are starting that you *will*
in fact do something instead of just "trying" to do something.Here's another problem to mention. It's not "where you *at*?". It is
entirely sufficient, and always has been, to simply ask "where are you?".
In general, it is poor English to end a sentence with a proposition.
In this particular case, it is entirely unnecessary and only serves to
distinguish the talker/writer as poorly grounded in English *fundamentals*.I could do this all day long.
It's not "an invite", it's "an invitation".
It's not "he has high compete", it's "he has a high level of competition".Blah blah blah.
Learn English, folks. I did.
Sorry but the best part of this post is you put a lot of effort into it just to get one single thumbs down from @Doohickie. 😆
