so the upshot from this presser is that KA's butt is in a sling for his failures this season and that his plan is to try to save his arse by doing everything we have all said needed to be done for three years; play hard for the open practice of the season, be harder to play against, go to the net, and work hard on defense.
Until today, the only player held accountable for the failed team, was Mitts and he was nearly the only forward showing nightly effort most of the season.
I’d hardly call being traded to a Stanley Cup contender “being held accountable”. He was a commodity with a friendly contract status that Colorado wanted in exchange for a top 3 D. They did him a favor.

Conroe is getting the start. Adams must want him highlighted for a blockbuster offseason trade. 😏

Today is the anniversary of Rob Ray pummeling a Nordiques fan.

To think there is a whole generation of kids that have no concept of what a Sabres playoff game is.
For us seniors the memory of Sabres playoff games are quickly fading.
I wouldn’t mind if the Caps won tonight as I’d rather they and the Pens make the playoffs instead of the Islanders.

Might as well give the home game to Levi.
Nah, keep him in Rochester where he’s needed to help the Amerks try to win the division.

Time to start playing Comrie to improve their draft position.

Would love to see Sabres beat the Wings and Kane and make it harder for Detroit to get to playoffs. The measuring stick for Detroit picking up Kane was to make the playoffs. Just saying it would be nice.....
If the Sabres had picked up Kane it would have improved their woeful power play and may have made the difference in making the playoffs.

I'm thinking about seeing the Amerks Saturday in Providence and then Sunday afternoon in Bridgeport. Here are the available tickets for Sunday's game. Why does Bridgeport even have a team?
They average over 3100. A Sunday afternoon game is probably a tough sell as the weather improves and its close proximity to NYC. The Isles probably like having them close by.

Jacob Trouba seems to be doing fine. Give me someone like him. I’m tired of our guys getting their ***** kicked constantly. I don’t need 15 guys on the roster like that but 3-4 would be nice.
I had hoped that Adams would have vigorously persued Radko Gudas last summer, but we ended up with Clifton.

I would trade or package Power in a skinny minute while he still has people fooled and retains high value.
I’d like to see if Ottawa would take him and a center prospect for Brady Tkachuk.

Summer 24 is gonna be epic, broskis!
The Bills will distract us as we complain about Beane not picking a WR in the 1st round.

FYI on why nobody dropped their gloves. “A player who instigates a fight in the final five minutes of a game (or in overtime in the regular season) will be charged a game misconduct and given an automatic one-game suspension.”
But at this point who cares, don’t get pushed around.

Pegula needs to fire the coaches tonight and force Adams to coach the rest of the year.

This will be the first time the Sabres get cheered for being shutout at home.

Sabres will look really foolish when he walks away in free agency next year and we lost Casey for nothing.
They weren’t winning with Casey either. They need more changes than just him.

Also who the heck is Bobby McMahon? I swear, my league recognition at large is so much lower now
Bobby McMann is their 3rd line center. Signed as a free agent last season.

There's always inklet.
So I don’t have to hear how great the Leafs are.

While I will probably just have hockey on all day in the background, does anyone know if there is game today that will be worth a sit down, pay attention type event? Either from a good game standpoint or a “you have to watch this kid play” standpoint?
On ESPNU 5pm, Sabres draft picks defenseman Maxim Strbak of Michigan State against forward Matteo Costantini of Western Michigan.

2-0 win at Syracuse. But Houser only played 34 seconds of the 1st period, and Tokarski played the rest of the game. Injury? Since they both played neither gets credit for the shutout.
Sabres announce Don Granato, Jason Christie and Matt Smith have been relieved of their duties

Disagree that he was a complete failure. It was his idea to move Tage to center which allowed him to prosper. He gave Dahlin the free reign to make the most of his abilities. He stuck with UPL until he gained the confidence to become a legitimate starter. He got Greenway to become a solid contributor, especially on the PK. He gave Benson more chances to bloom than most 18 year olds get.
It is true that the team emphasis on improving defensively seemed to adversely affect their offense which gave us such hope last season. Granato seemed to go as far as he could with this team. So time to find someone who can take them to the next level.
