No, it spells our FAK. Fan Appreciation Knight.
Ohhhhhhhhhhh because Knights might have used sabres as a primary choice of weapon. That makes sense

I just realized Fan Appreciation Night is an acronym of Fan. I must be pretty dumb.
Anyhoo, interested to see the fan reaction tonight. I am kind of hoping for the down 4-0 after the first 10 minutes chaos scenario. Let the boos reign down from the rafters

The shame arises from management being content with a team that has consistently produced mediocre results over an extended period of time.

This is definitely the overarching problem. They got suckered in with the progression last year and has clouded their judgment that this team is still not good enough. Send Don back to USA hockey. He has done the development part here. Thank you for that Meatballs. He is not ever going to be a "take to it the next level" coach. Find that person now or we're hitting 15 years on the drought for certain

There has to be a sense of urgency and staying the course isn't that, particularly with so many players regressing.  Â
I have tickets to the game tomorrow. I'm almost interested in going just to see how the fans respond at season's end. Â

I think there will be plenty of disdain shown. The broadcast might be insufferable to watch with all of the positive spin being vomited out in waves

I heard the GR interview as well. I just think Don is a decent coach he seems to laidback and coddling for me.Â
I agree with that. I know the players like him, but there has to be a fire lit at the same time. I don't necessarily need a Tortorella to be yelling like a psycho all the time, but somewhere in betweenÂ

I just listened to Don Granato on WGR. I was ready to criticize everything he said, so my take was certainly biased. He didn't show much emotion when asked about his feelings on playoff elimination. "We have 3 games left and need to play them the right way." Be pissed. Be raging like most of us are. Give me something.
He was asked about the constant poor starts to games. His answer to that was, and I'm paraphrasing slightly, "I feel like we were trying to score the first goal and that got us in trouble. Your mindset can't be to score every shift." Should the mindset be to give up the first 2 or 3 goals before you decide to start playing? It is infuriating to hear that he wanted them to play "safer" and not press too hard for offense.
He also didn't want to throw any players under the bus and wouldn't elaborate on what Tage Thompson meant by "the outside noise" affecting their play. After the interview was over, Jeremy and Joe made no comments on the interview whatsoever. Their first thought was "So and so NFL draft guy" has a new WR rankings list out.

So what "learning" experience will HCDG site to explain tonight's game? Â
"We learned that calling a timeout with 0.2 seconds left was asinine at best. I want to thank Matty Ellis for the advice there."

What a perfect time for "Fan Appreciation" night. Let the 1,500 in attendance give 'em hell!

What a timeout call Meatballs!

That's a BS rule that the faceoff stays in the zone if it's goes out of play off of an offensive player

At this point, lose the rest, get a higher draft pick that you can trade, or whatever. You done broke me boys

Just beat the Leafs! I don't care how what time of year it is, where we are in the standings, or any other crap you can think of. Send those POS fans back up the QEW pissed off.
On a side note, I'm happy the arena will have some juice tonight with a mostly full house

Rob really said that the penalty kill was going to gain momentum being down 2-0. Your 2023-2024 Buffalo Sabres everybody!

Nice goal call Dan

He can develop but is not a winning coach. He righted the ship after RK, untapped the potential of Tage, and brought Skinner back to relative prominence. That is not enough to be our coach going forward. Results are what matter and he hasn't been good enough. I know we weren't making the playoffs before that game started last night, but that first period was maybe the worst since he took over. Everyone was disinterested. The fact that Matt freakin' Ellis is running our power play is why I can't trust Meatballs to bring us to the next level. Go back to USA hockey and teach fundamentals or whatever you do there. The NHL requires much more

This team needs to move on from every player on the roster.  All gutless pussies.  You can’t change a tigers stripes.  No one with any passion on the roster.
Kind of surprised the p word made it past the censor, but I respect the sentiment

At this point, pile it on Ottawa! Let the boos rain down from the 2,000 in attendanceÂ

Why isn't Cozens, Peterka, Quinn a line?

I hope Quinn plays to give this game a little juice. If not, my feelings are:
