Gostisbehere is only a -1 on a bad defensive team. I remember seeing a bunch of folks on here wanting us to trade for Phillipe Myers. He's a -13 on the same team. Didn't Gostisbehere have a major knee problem a year or two ago? Maybe that's affecting his play? Dunno... Wouldn't hurt to take a chance on him. Hell, put him on the wing.

And actually, if I account for the fact they only have 4 regulation wins, this is what it would look like. Very doable to have the fewest regulation wins ever!!

I've been keeping track of this for the last few weeks. Not surprisingly, if you push numbers around, we keep creeping up this dubious list. Obviously, a lot could change over the course of an 84 game schedule, but this is what it would look like if the season were to end today. A couple games with New Jersey on the horizon, so we could work our way off this list completely with an actual win, or heaven forbid, two!! Even after the two games against Jersey, it is quite possible that we don't win again this season. Don't think we'd get close to the Capitals of 74-75', but we could easily approach Ottawa and San Jose of 92-93'. The majority of the teams on this list are expansion teams, so even with our layoff, Covid, injuries, 8 team super division, there's no way a team with this much talent should be anywhere near a list of first year squads. We may not have the worst team of all-time, but absolutely, without question, the most disappointing!

Agreed... I'd love to see percentages of how many 3rd's and/or 5th's actually amount to anything. It's quite common in the NFL for mid round picks to turn into All-Pro's but less likely in the NHL I would think.

Lol... Just saw the thread about dis!! Thought I was losing my mind with all dis!!

And maybe I've missed dis, but why is dis changed to dis and dat to dat in all these posts!?!? 😃

Good point... Equally ineffective!!

With the way dis team drafts, a 3rd & 5th may as well be future considerations

These turds seriously my not win another game this year

Okposo back to back giveaways caused that one. SMH, these guys.

My eyes may have been deceiving me, but I think I just saw Mittelstadt win a board battle!!

It's always been about the mindset with our clowns.

Typical Sabres... weak defenders!

At least Hall didn't telegraph that 2 on 1 pass!!

We could only hope. I have a feeling TP wouldn't be good with that.

I agree that everything started to sour with the Lafontaine thing. Still a lot of unanswered questions surrounding his departure. But I think that ship has sailed. I don't see them bringing him, or anyone worthwhile for that matter, in to run the show. TP doesn't seem to get along well with others.

I'm no gamer, but I think it's hilarious to see in EA Sports NHL 21 that Quinn is rated at the bottom of the virtually every player drafted! He was a slight reach at #8 especially when other quality players were drafted after him. Hopefully our draft "gurus" actually got one correct for a change!

Yay! There's hope in Mudville! We've removed Freddy Krueger and now have Granato and Matt Ellis left to deal with the carnage. What could possibly go wrong?!?!?

Or to write another book... This one titled..."How to milk a franchise out of millions of dollars"

Heck, why wasn't this done at 12:01 on 1/1/21??

If he had any honor, he would see how futile this whole situation is with him in it and just resign. Anything else is him being stubborn and money hungry. But, he won't and the organization won't fire him. Sickening situation!!

I still think Ralphy boy has some dirt on the Pegulas.... He ain't leaving anytime soon.

Agreed. They have kept the Sabres here and have helped bring a little bit of life downtown. Just not inside the arena where it's supposed to be happening. Hopefully their egos will erode and they will be able to see that they are not capable of owning two legit franchises. This situation has gone past laughable.

Nothing's gonna happen. I so hate this organization.

I think we all are. Incomprehensible at this point.
