UPL is back, we should be able to get a discount soon.

Now we're starting to get bullied out there again.

That's been Power's season in a nutshell, off the mark. Still an entertaining period that they actually came out with excellent compete for once.

Sorry bud, I tried desperately to be positive about this team but if Granato's leading this bunch 1 more year I think they'll be ruined. They don't learn from mistakes, they play soft, we've literally heard now at least 2 interviews where they've said "we thought this was going to be easy", no motivation, the coach doesn't discipline, the practices are weak according to former players and you can see it come game time. If UPL is for real and JJ Peterka continue upwards that is the absolute best I can do for positivity if Granato is leading this ship into next season, Adams need replacing also but Granato has to go.

I disagree with your whole take... Missing the playoffs by 1 point isn't a playoff push? We were tops in the league in scoring the year before. Adams then added some guys he thought would help in the "playoff push" in Eric Johson/Clifton and thought that would be enough. I doubt many in here thought the entire roster aside from 3 players were going to regress.

100% on coaches imo, no accountability in that building whatsoever. How can you practice everyday and preach everyday about compete and starting off way better then get into a game and start off slow/sluggish after practicing and preaching that the days leading up to a game? Then when these guys screw up they get rewarded with more playing time. This is why Granato is considered a great developmental coach but a very bad coach of men, he coddles them, shields them from danger but when we need them to elevate their game in crucial situations they crumble going on year 2 now of this so called playoff push.

I'm not sure a dominant playoffs makes up for how shaky he looked for most of the time up here imo. Rolling it back for the 3rd time in a row is incredibly bad idea. Some names I know are available (could be re-signed) in Chris Driedger (SEA) 2.1 GAA/.917 save%, Cam Talbot (LAK) 2.48 GAA/.915 save%, Laurent Broissot (WPG) 2.1 GAA/.925 save%, Anthony Stolarz (FLA) 2.12 GAA/.922 save% compared to Devin levi's 3.10 GAA/.899 save%. Those guys I mentioned should not require more than a 1-2 year deal aside from maybe Driedger but even he most likely wont get a long term deal.

I like your enthusiasm but I just don't see why Boone jenner who is the captain of the dumpster fire CBJ would want to come to an even bigger dumpster fire in the Sabres? I also believe Ryan Johnson has surpassed Muel on the 2nd line imo. Levi backing up UPL is a mistake, it's time for Adams to put the big boy pants on and go get a 1-2 year stop gap goalie who can alternate with UPL but also win us some game why Levi works on his game in the AHL. I wouldn't mind adding Savoie, Kulich and Carrier although some here have said Kulich doesn't look ready yet. Have you been watching him? What's your take on him since I don't get to watch many Rochacha games.

They clearly dont need to they're losing just fine without him.

Your 2024 Buffalo Sabres

Why would Tuch pass there?

You're on a message board with several different personalities, you can either ignore the hate, join the hate or don't come on a message board (I'm not trying to tell you not to come on btw) there are no other options brother.

Is there a more useless player than Peyton Krebs?

Just get his confidence back, since Hataway destroyed him he seems to have fell off a cliff. I think he needs to win more fights, hit more and the rest will come imo.

This is just what Cozens needed

I just have to look up into the sky, I don't have to go anywhere. Now let's hope the buffalo weather doesn't ruin the experience like usual.

Why do you guys do this to yourselves?

ok

Skinner by buyout? Because trade isn't happening.

If that's your opinion that's fine but he was really bad and even hard to watch up until Jan, most here were looking to move on including myself. A bridge deal is definitely what he should get.

I just need more than a half of a seasons production, he was Comrie-bad before this resurgence.
