They won 8/9 at the end of March into early April.

Yeah. Korpi faced a lot of shots but I don't recall many (if any?) saves that were particularly challenging.

Another Cliché: The fish rots from the head. Lousy owner --> Incompetent GM --> Lousy coaches --> rotting sea bass on the ice. The situation isn't improving until Terry gets a serious hockey person in here to run the org from the top down. Sadly, Terry has to pick that hockey person.

Tage is a piker; Skinner was 33. Tage might get there if he stays with the Sabres, though.

Dahlin. I was helping my daughter with her algebra homework and half watching. This team keeps finding new ways to lose. Fire Adams.

Same Old Sabres™

Was that Power???

Now they ice the puck. In OT. Good Lord.

Another OT. Yay.

What an idiotic penalty. JFC

That's another thing. He's so sold on "his guys" and the idea the top FA's won't come to Buffalo that he doesn't even try. He has consistently failed to supplement the talent we do have. Maybe top FA's don't want to come here, but I don't want a GM that buys that. Get somebody in here with the BALLS and vision to try.

The whole Adams plan was an insane boom or bust risk. They've spent years drafting these skill guys and it isn't paying off, be it because the player just isn't that good or the coaching sucks. Guys like Rosen and Östlund should be contributing something by now. Kulich has his moments but also disappears for long stretches. Not to mention handing out long/pricey extensions to guys before they really earned them. He went all in on his "process" and it is objectively failing.

A large part of that was that insanely hot couple of games (two in a row, I think?). Outside of that, it's looked really bad overall.

The fact that Matty Ellis still has a job here shows that this isn't a serious hockey organization.

I know it's only October, but sell me that this isn't the Same Old Sabres™. Lacking in top-6 forward talent Uninspired, disjointed blue line Lousy power play Poorly coached Get outworked on the boards regularly Refuse to go to or put butts in front of the net It's the same ***** every single year under Adams.

Hope this isn't Lyon regressing to the mean. Add lousy goaltending to the rest of this mess and it could get really U-G-L-Y.

This team never prospers for long.

Sabres power play

Fortunate Mitts still has a popcorn fart shot.

Zadorov, Mitts, Joki.

This power play is an absolute dumpster fire.

Good Lord, Power.
