3/9 games he's played (counting tonight). If he was hurt when they traded for him, coupled with his already concerning injury history, that's just more gross incompetence by Adams. No serious hockey organization would move forward with a GM with KA's track record. I fear we will and we will see little action to improve the team this summer. We're stuck on a hamster wheel.

And Ottawa's a nope, too. So 3/9 games. That's not an encouraging start. I liked what I saw of him in those 3 games, what that means nothing if he can't play. We all kinda looked sideways at his injury history, and it's already showing up. Maybe it's not the norm moving forward, but then again, maybe it is. Have to wonder who else Adams talked to and who else was on the table. Would be nice if the main guy we traded for could...you know...play.

Do we have any word on what's keeping Norris out? After tonight, he will have played in 3/9 games since the trade. A guy with baked in injury concerns. Great job, Kevyn. Got 3 games out of him, so that's better than none, I guess?

What do I want? A complete gutting of the organization from the top-down. FO fired. Coaching staff fired into the sun. Bring in an experienced POHO to hire an experienced GM and makeover the roster and hire a new staff. What do I think will happen? Not much. Adams stays the course and only makes a couple of minor additions like the past couple of summers. This is not a serious hockey organization. Lather, rinse, repeat.

They sure look happy with this win. Wish they'd do it more often.

Call me crazy, but this game feels like an anomaly. No Hellebuyck helps.

HOLY ***** AN ENG

Reimer flailing like Ralphie in his snow suit yet somehow glove saves that one.

Can we not Alamo this? Please?

Ugh. 4-3

One of the few I really want to keep around for sure. Fast as hell, great on the pk, soft hands. He's an asset.

Reimer was HUGE on that pp.

MOTHERTUCHER On a breakaway, no less!

Great stop, REIMER

Dumb penalty, Donkey.

Donkey a total bystander as Miller waltzes into the slot.

WTF was that?

KOZAK

Okay, think I'm gonna tune in for the 3rd. Don't make me regret this, ya bums.

And this will continue to happen year over year until wholesale changes are made. It's a broken record at this point. I'm skipping this game and going to do some reading instead. Wasting 2.5-3 hours of my day on a team that is so far beyond saving at this point is silly. I'll still watch a few games, but after the last few, I'm Sabres'd out. I've been saying all season that I hope they win because this lot needs to learn how to do that. I've written them off at this point. Nothing is saving them. From here in just tank, hope they clean house, and get the best pick possible. And that is really saying something about my current state of mind with this franchise because I have NEVER pulled for a tank and just hoped they'd lose. At this point I feel like a fiery crash is our only hope because something tells me if they win a couple too many, Adams will sell that as progress to Terry and we hop right back on the damn hamster wheel.

Norris played 2 games here and it was like Drago pounding on Apollo Creed. That's what playing for this team does.

I think he's fine. Will he ever win a Vezina? No. But he's at worst a solid backup. He does let in a lot of soft goals, so that's why I think we either need Levi to live up to his hype or find a legit #1. UPL starting 30-35 games is fine.

So, is Norris going to play again this year or what? Legitimate concern with him was his extensive injury history. He's played in 2/6 games since the trade. WTF, Adams? You couldn't get somebody to trade you someone who would actually, I don't know, PLAY?

Another sad effort. This season just needs to end. I see they gave up another ENG. That's basically automatic at this point. 14 more games of this *****. If Terry is serious about winning, the moment game 82 ends Adams, Ruff and his staff and the rest of the FO should be told to pack their *****. This organization needs an enema.

This is a Wild team missing two of their best forwards and another enforcer-type forward that has been a big contributor for a few years and the Sabres don't look like they belong on the ice with them. Pathetic. What more do you need to see, Terry? I've switched to March Madness. Tapped out on this one.
