You would think people would've learned their lesson about running players out of town on a rail only to see it blow up in our faces in the most horrible and humiliating fashion possible (like that guy who scored the winning goal) but then you see the scorching hot takes on Cozens and the answer is clearly: Nope.

Patches received DEATH BY GIRAFFE!

The best thing is that the team already has the excuse of starting the season in Europe lined up when they get off to a 4-13 start and the season is over by Thanksgiving.

*Taps the sign*

Players are happy and want to go to an armpit of humanity like Pittsburgh because they are always a winning team. Players would have no problem coming to Buffalo if the team was good, in fact the location bordering Southern Ontario would be a draw for many of them.

Good thing they traded him for a guy who has statistically been just about the worst player in the league at his position since we acquired him.

Can a horrid coach singlehandedly wreck a perennial cup contender? Yes: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/2010–11_New_Jersey_Devils_season

Halfway through they just hit a brick wall and had nothing left. Fortunate to get the win even though it was a bogus skills competition one.

The mistake with the soccer stadium was 100% the location. It's in the absolute worst area of the entire city and people did not want to go there (particularly at night).

Krebs should have his ass nailed to the bench for the rest of the game and be scratched the next game for that Risto level low hockey IQ penalty.

The absolute best thing that can happen is for this team to lose all it's remaining games in uncompetitive fashion. It needs to be so ugly that there is no choice but to fire the entire coaching staff because if they come back with Donny and company next season is already over before it even starts.

Exhibit A:

They need an actual NHL quality coaching staff WAAAAAAAAAY more.

Could you imagine if Mike Robitaille was still doing the post-game show what he would be saying right now? Instead we have Pegula State Media trying to sugarcoat this atrocity.

Tonight is really the first time where I am really thinking this team will not be here in 5 seasons. This fanbase and franchise are dead and unless things change drastically headed towards the same fate as the Whalers.

Look at all the players this organization has churned through who went on to great success elsewhere.

Torts has a team with a roster that makes ours look like the 85 Oilers in a playoff spot.

Yup, the strategy of churning through players has worked out great... for all those teams who were shrewd enough to take advantage of our stupidity.
