Appert was about that good in Rochester too.

Those teams won in spite of Appert. Leone is getting better results with significantly less talent than Seth had.

3rd best winning percentage in the entire AHL and only .001 behind 2nd place.

 

And they are doing it in the AHL's Division Of Death.

This organization has lucked into it's coach of the future in Leone and I pray they recognize this instead of sticking with the awful Seth Appert as the plan.

What could he possibly do to be an even bigger failure and ***** up than he already is, accidentally burn the arena to the ground?

”The contract does say Petterson…”

Better one:Years back Vince told John Laurinaitis to go out and sign a one legged wrestler (Zach Gowen, who had just appeared on a TNA show) and he went out and signed a different one legged wrestler by accident.

I don't give a ***** that they won, they should've been booed off the ice. Bunch of gutless heartless eunuchs.

[What will be the Sabres approach at the trade deadline?]

Wonder what Kevyn Milbury has to do in order to lose his job at this point?

Toronto FC .

The first ever sporting event I attended when I was a young kid was a Buffalo Stallions game… live and - - kickin’ at the Aud!

No more Buffalo soccer so next closest local team is TFC.  
 

 

I am one of the very few people who saw a TFC home match in 2020 as they allowed a few thousand fans in for their final match of the season in Hartford vs Inter Miami.

On the subject of MLS I forgot to mention that the Red Bulls are the Anti-Sabres with the longest current playoff streak (15 seasons) in major US/Canadian sports (and have only missed the playoffs 4 times in the 29 season history of the league). Sadly we have never won it all (although we've won 3 supporters shields in that time).

[When as a fan have you tasted a championship?]

That's it.

Sabres, Red Bulls, Bengals and Knicks have made multiple trips to the finals/SB/MLS Cup and lost every time.

In Canada my Ticats won once (1999) and Forge FC has won 4 of the 6 CPL titles.

Andy Reid vs McDermott.    Unfair 

True, but remember other than Brady/The Hoodie the only coach to beat KC in KC is a guy far worse than McD and whose team wins in spite of him.

It’ll be Tage Thompson moving out if it happens.  Book it.

Him and Dahlin are the only two players that should be off limits but our GM is a literal bumbling incompetent moron so that actually has a decent chance of happening. It would be at best a slight upgrade for $4 million extra and still leaves us without another top 6 center.

I understand why he is up, but he needs more time in the AHL

Unless you are close to a generational talent a goalie is always going to take time to develop. Adams bet on a million to one shot and (SURPRISE!) lost.

I like Levi being called up to challenge UPL. Sucks about McLeod though who seemed to be figuring something out.

Hate to break this to you but it's obvious UPL is hurt, likely a concussion due to Frankencossak nailing him in the head with an elbow.

[Real issue with the Sabres]

Breaking news: Sabres announce plans for this season's fan appreciation night:

 

[Is it time to consider taking away the C from Dahlin or does that do nothing and lose the player?]

A few months before the undisputed Worst Trade In Hockey History (a trade so bad it literally was a significant contributing factor in killing a team) the Whalers made the decision to strip Ron Francis of the captaincy (as if he was the problem and not Ed Johnston being an incompetent moron and Rick Ley being an awful coach) and the next night the Whalers got crushed in a game where they put up a grand total of 8 shots. 

Yeah, stripping Dahlin of the C would be a catastrophically stupid idea.

Roster construction and coaching are killing us. We have a bunch of skilled players who have a knack for scoring goals but rely on others to go into the dirty areas of the ice (along the boards, in front of the net) for that skill to work and the only problem is we only have a select few players who are willing to do that and some of them just do it every now and again. 

As for the coaches, the entire assistant coaching staff should be let go (There is no way they're firing Appert as you can tell he is going to be our next HC) none of them should have kept their jobs to begin with. Also Seth Appert can't even get the power play going so why do they just want to hand this guy the next HC gig? I don't understand. 

 

The idea that the single biggest failure of an organization in hockey history keeps promoting from within is both mindblowing and explains perfectly why they are the single biggest failure of an organization in hockey history.

Are we all talking about the same fanbase that was cheering every time the Yotes scored against the Sabres about 10 seasons ago?

If you rooted for them to lose, you can’t sit here and cry now that the team sucks. It’s what you cheered for. 

You would almost think the organization itself had literally built the team with the defacto goal of losing as many games as possible or something...

Also worth mentioning that the biggest loser in the NHL changing the lottery rules to do everything short of rigging it so the Sabres wouldn't get McDavid was in fact Arizona (who would've got Eichel and instead ended up with an all time bust in Strome). HECKUVA JOB GARY!!!!!
