How hard do you think execs, coaches and players were laughing watching that shitshow? If you were a player would you want to come to an organization run by a ridiculous clown like Adams? Would you see the Sabres as a serious organization?

Four Nations tournament teams announced. Tage Thompson does not make the US roster. This shows what NHL GMs value on a team's bottom 6 (GM Guerin and team).
I hope they lose every game 10-0. Guerin and his crew can all get *****.

This is spot on... this team is built for pick up ice capade hockey. It will not stand in Feb,march and April when the real "I wanna make the playoffs" hockey is played. Let alone God forbid they actually make the playoffs they are gonna get killed. The abject ineptitude of our orginazation is rivaled only maybe by the New York Jets. I am fairly certain no one in the history of employment has been worse at their given jobs then the entirety of these two hapless jokes. They must completely clean house and hire someone who actually has attended a hockey game or even at least knows someone that has... because it is readily apparent that our entire organization couldnt possibly understand the game. There legitamately can be no other plausible reason for not making the playoffs for going on 14 years when half the league does and the draft is structured the way it is. You have a better chance of winning the lottery twice. With regards to trades... please no trades. I do not want Adams doing anything with what little assets we do have.
At least Woody isn't refusing to spend to the cap on the Jets because he's building a stadium for his other team.

Since the money I spend on Sabres tickets is being used to fund the Bills stadium and not on improving the least successful team in hockey history or the worst arena in all of pro sports they should at least be nice enough to hook me up with a Division Champs shirt or hat.

I don't get this love affair everyone seems to have with Benson.
If he actually contributed some offense, I might get it.
No matter how invisible he is on the score sheet, he's immune from criticism.
He's virtually the only forward on the entire roster who plays the way you need to play in order to win in the NHL.

When Thompson is in the game, there is too much predictability -- too much deferral to him and his taking the same shot over and over again. When he was out, players had to scramble more and there was less predictability in the lineup.
Yesterday was a mess. They appeared to be having trouble handling the puck the entire game and getting out of their own endzone. Too many long shots and almost no physical play.
This is on coaching and the players. Show some pride. Benson is 19 and acts more grown up than most of them.
Man did some people learn the absolute wrong lesson from that west coast trip where they Timothy Dexter'd their way to 3 completely undeserved wins.

I for one am shocked that a team that does nothing but take perimeter shots with nobody anywhere near the net has trouble scoring. You would hope they learn from how they came back that the only way you succeed in this league is to get to the net.

Expect the bigger issue of the leg room is people that have arthritis or other leg joint ailments tend to have issues with the seating and those of us fortunate enough to not have them yet don't have issues with them. Gentleman that sits near me really dislikes sitting in our row even though he's relatively short as the leg room is noticably less than it is for rows behind us.
Have never had major issues with it personally, though when sitting next to someone who likes to "spread out" it can be a little awkward as their leg keeps brushing up against the people sitting next to them.
As others have said, a new arena could likely overcome this issue but at the cost of the seats being even further from the ice surface unless each upper section is directly above the one below it (like the 300's pretty much are directly over the suites at the MMArena).
Easy solution: Call Scott Malkin and ask to borrow the blueprints for UBS Arena and modify it slightly to get to an 18k capacity.

Um guys, the Bills are NOT the team whose future you should be worrying about. It's the hockey team that is currently the biggest failure of an organization of all time playing in a decrepit shithole of an arena having spent well over a decade poisoning the market so bad it makes Love Canal look pristine by comparison.

If Adams makes a big move I'd all but guarantee it ends up one of the all time trade blunders. Other teams view him as a mark to be conned and will make him terrible offers with the hope he's so desperate he bites. When sharks smell blood in the water you know what happens...

That guy should be getting a call from both the league and Rochester PD. AHL is such a ***** goon league, it's ridiculous.

Amerks-Sabres back to back…I’m impressed. Were you the one asking about planning a trip a while back?
Nah, that was the two openers last month. Was at MSG Thursday, got a bus at 10:45 last night and got up here around 7:30. Bus back is booked for 8:45pm.

Just arrived in Buffalo. I'm currently waiting for the 15 bus to the Paula's Donuts on Seneca.

Amerks are up 5-1 on the Rangers AHL team Hartford in 2P. Rempe just ran our goalie, punk. Sandstrom injured.
One of their scumbag fans spent 3 minutes in my face threatening to attack me after the 5th goal while the crack MSG security guy had his finger up his ass. The guy came and just got the mutant to go back to his and didn't toss him even though that's clearly what should've happened. If that guy had jumped me later I would've had a slam dunk lawsuit. After the game he no went back to Staten Island and took out his frustrations by smacking around his old lady.

No one is disputing the fact that the owner's presence hovers over this flaccid franchise. However, our GM was definitely instrumental for dealing Mitts for Byram, and if I'm not mistaken was the GM who didn't sign Reinhart to an extension when he had the opportunity to do so.
No, the last one is all on Botts who refused to sign him long term and gave him a "prove it" bridge deal. By the time Kevyn took over it was too late and he wanted out.

If a guy stinks playing on one of the powerhouse organizations and they are shopping the guy you would be very foolish to covet the guy. It should throw up more red flags than a Soviet Mayday parade. But this is the most incompetent organization in hockey history so it's no surprise we were the suckers the Avs were able to con and exploit.

From Paul Hamilton:
”If this were my team Jiri Kulich, Jacob Bryson and Dennis Gilbert would all be in the lineup on Saturday in Detroit. Friday night was unacceptable and some players need to pay the price.”
I’d welcome the change personally. Wonder what Lindy will do tomorrow?
I literally cannot believe I am actually agreeing with something PHam said.
