Would like it if they showed up tonight, not holding out hope though. 50/50, we'll see Go Sabres!

It goes deeper than this I fear. But your on the right track. Culture is still a huge problem it appears. Any player on the Sabres that accepts the effort and commitment levels of the Boston and Colorado games need to go ASAP. Just point blank unacceptable. As for Toronto and Mathews, Marner, Tavares and the surrounding talent, I am now fully tilted to the very strong possibility that the next 10 to 12 years are now a lost cause for the Sabres. As it stands today, the rebuild has been a complete disaster. Early indications are the Culture and absence of elite high end talent are the foundational problems. Just my opinion, but I don't see Buffalo having the ability to win a playoff series in the next 6 years or so, if they even make the playoffs. The Eastern Conference just has to many teams more talented and committed than Buffalo.

And the legend of Toronto grows, Mathews, Tavares, as Buffalo continues to look like a puppy lost in the woods.

Mathews is tearing up the score sheet right now. Toronto has one hell of a team to be sure.

Just one thought comes to mind...…….. 21st over all, in a deep draft class, for 1 goalie who could not stop a breakaway or shootout puck to help "The Team"! Sometimes irony comes in the form of a backup goalie dressed as a starter playing like an AHL backup while speaking like an ECHL throw away with a bitter taste in his mouth...…..

You'd have to offer a very enticing package to get a 3rd party team who could acquire him to deal him to us. Nylander is young, skilled, the kind of winger you'd expect a rebuilding or mid tier team to keep. It would take more than 2 firsts + in my opinion.

I hear ya, I wanted that 3rd, 4th, 5th and 6th goal, with those 5 assists...…./s

I would like that setup...….BUT...…….I would really love LEAFS vs SABRES......ECF with home ice ?

GO SABRES!!!!!!!!

We are about to go above .500 hockey ladies and gents ?

This is the type of game I want from this team. Goal scoring, scoring chances, lock down the D zone. I like this team.

Looks like a steal of a contract early on. Don't like the 44 shot peppering he took, but he stood tall against it.

Good win, Hutton looks very good. GO SABRES!!!

He didn't fall down, therefore, he did not score.....

come on boys, close this game out with a W...….

Still get pressured a bit to easy, but improvement is noticeable on puck movement. Dahlin has skill, Okposo still appears out of whack, they need more physical victories, Sam was getting knocked around out there for a bit.

Bout time! Nicely done Jack and Sam.

Agree. He's not engaging puck battles and he hasn't used his shiftiness we've seen in the past. Injury unreported perhaps?

where is this new attitude coming from? It almost looks like "Culture Change"...……..

Well, that makes me smile ?

you get the puck, you go on the rush, and go offside, in 4 on 4 mode. these are the kind of mistakes that must vanish.

me likey Elie...….he shows some promise

Come on boys!!!!! Show up tonight please. Go Sabres!

Yea, there are some real issues with this team still. I can only hope I don't hear the 2 month excuses anymore. Eichel was made Captain, he SHOWED 0, yes 0 indication tonight he deserved that role. Eichel is starting his 10 mil a season for 8 season contract. Shutout? The HOME OPENER...………….Yea, color me a jump to conclusion kinda guy, but Eichel will never live up to that Contract.
