  1. They went all in on KA's approach of loading up on "skill" regardless of how it fit into the roster as a whole. They were emboldened by encouraging early returns when the team played really well over the last couple of months of the 2022/23 season. What they failed to identify is that that was likely an aberration based on teams not knowing how to handle the Sabres offense first (only?) attack. The league caught on and the Sabres growth has plateaued at best and regressed badly in many cases. Glaring deficiencies are obvious to anyone with 2 firing neurons in their brain and it's pretty evident there is/was no Plan B. If they're afraid to make roster alterations because other guys they've traded have gone on to have great success, God help us. They want to make "hockey trades"? Okay, they're gonna have to go find partners with assets that don't have NTC/NMCs. Then they have a short window to win to keep those guys from wanting out. In short, it's a big ***** sandwich and we're all gonna have to take a bite.
  2. Only six? Sheesh, feels like he's played for everyone at one point or another.
  3. I think that means Vesey has now played for every team in the league.
  4. We said all of this 12 months ago. This organization is good at one thing - kicking the can down the road.
  5. Guerin is a good GM. Adams is not.
  6. Individually, I agree. But his complete inability to construct a cohesive roster is an utter failure on his part. In reality, any deadline deals will likely be for futures anyway (yay), so doesn't matter a whole lot I guess...
  7. No Joker tonight. They working on something with him? Likely more draft picks. Yay.
  8. There is no objective reason to keep him around. None. This roster is of his doing, has zero playoff berths in a league that 50% of the teams get in, and appears no closer than they were two years ago. Actually, they appear further away. Question is - does Terry even care enough to fire his pool boy, or is Adams really good at selling him on a (never ending) process? If I'm a betting man my money goes on no significant changes only because they've spent years convincing me they're not a serious hockey organization.
  9. Won 6/7 then lose ugly twice. That's our Sabres.
  10. The guy responsible for this is almost certainly the next HC. Awesome, yeah?
  11. Every time they give some indication of possible forward progress, they quickly snuff it out with a couple of games where they revert to looking clueless, hopeless, and inept. This organization needs an enema.
  12. Multiple great opportunities this period and they've failed to cash in
  13. Multiple primo opportunities not taken advantage of there.
  14. This would be more entertaining if Rayzor was stuffing his face.
  15. They've looked like the absolute worst version of themselves the last 10-12 mins of that period. Pull yer heads outta yer *****.
  16. Good first 10 mins, brutal last 10 this period.
  17. Hearing "go habs go" in our own barn. 😐
  18. Balls. That was just great puck movement by MTL
