    If I'm granato I'm sending okposo and eakin to the taxi squad and bringing asplund and Smith in and keeping them up the rest of the season. Then after the deadline bring up Brett Murray and whoever else we need and roll with them getting as much game time as possible. Blow it up at the deadline and then with who we have left let them play the game and not get them systemised.  

    If i was granato, id make sure to send as few players as possible to the taxi squad and try go with what we started the season with as much as possible.

    This is the only way to turn things around this season to leave the season with a couple of more wins and some confidence. This team does NOT need alot ot changes with players right now. The team we started this season with need to turn this around, that is my firm belief.

    Jack Eichle is one happy "capitano" today, im certain of that.

    Someone who wants to not kill his coaching career? If I'm an established coach in the league I'm not looking at Buffalo as a prime place by any stretch. 

    This wasnt about the few coaches that aee active in NHL. There are tons of coaches out there, most would do way better than this fkn moron we have as a coach now and gladly come coach this team.

    Problem is who would want the job without Eichel, Cozens and Ullmark playing.  Just hoping Sabres can pick two solid forwards in the next draft... Quinn and Peterka makes progress as well.  Trade Stall and maybe another for young prospects.

    Who would not want the oportunity to coach a team in NHL?

    A coaching change is inevitable.  There is no need to rush the inevitable.  There is a need to make a careful, smart pick.  I trust that this move is in the works.  Some roster moves are also needed to shake up the team.
     

    I don’t watch the games.  I listen online from the west coast (outside the WNY bubble).  Some are jumping on the coach while others blame the players.  I sense that this crop of players doesn’t mesh well together despite their individual skills. I can’t tell from listening if the players have quit on the coach.  What is the take from those of you who watch the games?  The Sabres didn’t seem this bad before their covid shutdown. Rebuilds are not supposed to last this long.  I miss winning.

    This org cannot make smart picks with these owners and one pathetic sh1t general manager. It will all be about luck, sooner or later they will eventually hit right and a golden coach will be remembered for ever. But, that could also be 2030.. just saying.

  17. 10th consecutive season without playoffs is here - A DECADE

    Looks like the Sabres are heading towards the longest drought in history.  We have set a new unprecedented standard of dysfunction and futility to the likes never seen before.  And I’m not exaggerating.  It’s staggering to behold. They are losing a fan base and that’s hard to do in Buffalo.  Who in their right minds will buy season tix next year? Once they trade Jack and Sam and likely lose those trades, we could be looking at indefinitely bad hockey.  There is nothing on the horizon which gives me hope at this moment. And I’m generally a positive person. 

    I was also positive once.

    This season is over for sure, it's beyond miracle that this team can reach a playoff spot. 

    There are many things i dont understand  with this organisation and here are a few,

    Why have this org not done everything in their power to really change things up before this season started (which i firmly believe they have not), they have never ever
    had this much time up their sleve to prepare. WHY?

    So what could have been done now knowing the facts,

    Well first of all - last season results should have been enough, fire ppl once again cuz it wasnt working. Just look at Bills. Luck? mm maybe, who cares?
    Rinse and repeat for fk sake.


    Just look what Barry have done with Islanders, im not saying we would have same success but we sure as hell needed a coach that actually know how to win, Ralph have never won anything in his life except 5 championships in the mountains of Austrich, a league that is beyond bad and was aswell when he was there, were talking ECHL level or worse.
    He could actually be the worst coach in the history of this franchise. And still this org believes in this m o r o n.


    Anyway,
    Focus areas should've been (more than it has) on:

    Headcoach with a winning culture, a strict coach and together with that:


    - Mental coach
    - Ethics coach
    - Ton of online team building
    - Brought up Chris Taylor as assistant coach, totally deserved that one


    And the list goes on .. but yea, let's go with Ralph K. This org can ...whatever ill just do this one again...

    Terry Pegula thought the acquisition of Hall was enough to make us a Cup contender this year!

    LMFAO!

    Can we please fire him too?!

     

     

    Well he is right to be honest, if we had a coach that could coach this team we would be in the top, no doubt, even with mediocre goalies (except Ullmark)

    We have 3 pontential 40 goal-scorers in our lineup, 3! .. and they have together collected 5 goals this far. And Ralph is still here.. i mean for crying out loud, the owners and KA is beyond stupidity.

    I actually think the odds of them getting a “real”, coach in here are extremely low as is. IF they trade Eichel away, I see no conceivable way they attract any seasoned coach here. It will be a first time coach who just wants a chance. More suffering for us. 

    But, 

    It just cannot be worse, honestly it cannot. 
    Even a rookie coach would do better than Ralph, hell id hire Brian Gionta as HC for the rest of this season if that would be possible.

    Ralphs tunnelvision is so narrow, he just cannot think outside the box, he doesnt do active coaching during games more than what a 5 year old would when seeing that we dont score and are down 0-4 before the third starts.

     

    Ralph is just so incredibly bad, he would do superb as a franchise salesman to make companys believe in Buffalo, but as a coach he is just plain dogsh1t.
