Believer

Would love to hear the locker room talk right now… Better come out strong and smart… Play fast… Finish…

Sabres skating, shooting, attacking the net… Love to see this effort…

What a quick release… Thompson is a sniper…

Goal!!

Great chance there…

Damn…

Fast game tonight…

Dahlin a bit shaky tonight…

Bryson!!…

No surprise we lose so often… Adams better have a fix this offseason…

Call it my anecdotal hunch… Long ago in another life, was a 10 year Capitals season ticket holder… (2 seats Row 26 Mid ice on the aisle … Started out in the Nosebleeds… Improved my seats each year so the last few years sat behind Peter O’Malley Team President and his regular guest, Steny Hoyer… Best seats in the house… Spilled beer on Hoyer a couple times… I’m right handed😎)… ‘74-‘84 crap teams… More than a few times had trouble getting one of my regular guests to enjoy a game against another crap team… Watching two crap teams was too much… Gotta be harder to sell tickets to a game between two crap teams… Historical attendance Away records show a mixed bag… https://www.espn.com/nhl/attendance So, you might be right that owners aren’t pressuring Pegula to field a competitive team next season… but it’s just a hunch his team is costing some of them money…

My bet is Pegula is being given instructions from Bettman in private to make some changes this off season… and getting some grief from other owners who have trouble selling tickets to Sabre games… Open the purse strings… Give KA his head… Let’s find out how creative he is… Let’s find out next season if Granato can win at the NHL level with a real team…

It’s Pegula… (Didn’t he put Kim in charge of the Sabres??)… You gotta think Bettman is getting pressure from other owners… The Sabres affect their attendance as well…

Surprised Granato wasn’t leading the talk…

Great shot by Eakin on the 5 Hole going down… Cheap shot on Krebs…

Eakin… No quit…

They better be trying…

Killer…

Kyle shoots… No waste…

Bad pass… Tuch’s gotta know his pass can’t be deflected before making it… Otherwise take the shot… Let Skinner go for a rebound… We do this too often…

Some are Cynics… some are Skeptics… some are Pessimists… some are Optimists… some are Naive… some are Pragmatists… It’s all good… We’re all fans…

All good questions… When Pegula decides to open his wallet… and KA decides to bring in a few key players with SC experience from winning programs to complement Tuch and help grow the kids… and Granato starts to expect wins and coaches like it… Maybe starting next season… My hope…

Nice move by Skinner for that shot…

Psyk losing the puck behind the net hurt…

Bravo, Thompson coming to the aid of Dahlin…
