My bet.

That’s why I said to package him. Adams has plenty of tradable prospects and will get another high 1st round pick next draft. The sooner Adams acknowledges his mistakes and moves players to help this team, the better. If he truly runs the show, now is the time to start. Just my opinion.

Agree with you. Samuelson is a bust, imo. Package him and get a reliable vet D who plays defense or F who can score.

Tells me they haven’t been in any hurry to get back. Don’t see Greenway as a malingerer. Perhaps Ruff had a Come To Jesus meeting Samuelson.

The Bills.

What would you suggest?

Kulich Boom. Mercy defense by Utah.

There are no words to describe the crisis occurring at home games this season in Buffalo. Pegula doesn’t care. Adams doesn’t care. Soon, fewer and fewer fans will care.

-3 Peterka, Cozens, Benson -2 Power Growing pains.

SMH

Good God Almighty. Mind boggling failure.

Adams ”I’d go to war with these guys.” Honestly? I wouldn’t.

What is Ruff saying to them on the bench? Who is Ruff sending out to finish a period when we are down a goal? No attempt to play offense and attack. That’s on Ruff, imo.

Pathetic. Lazy. Disengaged. No urgency. Utah was in complete control the last 2 minutes of the period. A Utah goal was a good bet.

Funny to hear the Utah broadcasters pumping up Thompson. “Like Josh Allen, he will attract players to Buffalo who want to play with him and the young Sabre team. “They are trying to get over the hump.” Yeah, sure. Almost 14 years now.

Nice hit by Malenstyn. Leading by example.

No question mark about it.

Bad luck. Get ‘em together, Ruff.

Damn. Saw that coming. Lazy Sabre play. Clear the zone

Boom! Kozak Gets his first. Like this kid.

Ruff wins one. Boom.

Damn. Already?

In my fantasy, I would have had the team watch all the video commentary by the ESPN and NHL Network crews as the game progressed and the astonishment after the 1st period, turned to criticism after the 2nd period, and ended in ridicule and belly laughs by game’s end. Then, I would have had each player read aloud one of 25 comments pre-selected by Ruff that were posted on SabreSpace during and after the game last night. Then, I would announce to them my resignation as Coach, and wish them the best the rest of the season. In my fantasy, Pegula, Adams, and the rest of the front office are in attendance. The meeting ends when Pegula announces he is selling the team.

I do. Coaching. What are Ruff and Appert telling players on the bench? The meltdown occurred over the last 30 minutes of play. There was plenty of time to adjust.

1 and 2 for sure. Pegula should speak at a postgame presser on the record at least every couple weeks. Adams as well. Promote Murray, among others. Will never be NHL regular, but plays hard who knows the kids. Sets an example. Send a message. Like your other ideas as well.
