I really hope we don't wind up in the Top 5, but with the current situation (roster, philosophy, incompetence, injuries, et al), all signs are pointing to the inevitable. Something needs to change in a hurry because this bunch is showing less and less fight and as the losses continue to pile up, it will be tough to stop that snow ball. This year's version of the playoff-less Sabres has zero toughness and while I would love to be able to add size in the draft, if by some act of God we wind up with the #1 pick, we also need a second line center, so Bedard it would have to be. Mittlestadt has proven to be worthless and Cozens appears to nothing more than a 3rd or 4th line center.

With their current roster, the only way they avoid it at this point is if they trade an unprotected top 5 pick for NHL ready talent. Don't see KA doing that. Stick a fork in them, they're done.

Agreed, but we've all seen this rodeo before. As each game passes, it becomes clearer and clearer that this team isn't much different than the one that started last season. And the season before that. And the season before that...

After losing to three of the bott om feeders this past week, we have become one. I think the annual question of what top 5 pick will land to us should begin. My first attempt at simulating the draft landed us Bedard!! It's inevitable at this point. I know I've given up!

Ya’ get what you see with him. Kinda like the rest of this roster. This group is still light years away from being a playoff team.

I can’t tell if this team is simply dumb or lazy in the defensive zone…or both

7 PP’s and only 15 SHG

What I wouldn’t give to hear somebody on the bench scream at the top of their lungs to the PP….”shoot the effing puck!!!!!”

Girgensons gonna be in concussion protocol

Put Andreychuk back in front and pepper the net from the point. All this possession time is fantastic except they get one shot per PP from Thompson and that's it

Stutzle looked confused.

PP can only rely on a Tage one timer... That's it... That's all they do

Powerplay is awful and can never ever get chances when they pull the goalie. Definitely see double digit losing streak

Pulling goalie. Means an automatic goal against

Sabres are missing a little red organ in the middle of their chest

He produces a lot of fly by’s in his own end

Is Whitney Houston really his goal song?!?! Lol

Just no fight at all with this group

I’m envisioning a high double digit losing streak and eliminated from playoff contention by Christmas.

Those goal posts have taken a beating over the last week

That was closer to being offsides than it was to a high stick

Mittlestadt is like the little engine that couldn’t. He’s never going to live up to the high draft pick

On a positive note, I didn’t notice any swamp ass in the third period

Maybe Peterka, Quinn & Mittlestadt isn’t such a good choice against Marchand line???

Rat bastard giving Bushy jabs to face and draws a penalty??
