Your 2025/26 Buffalo Sabres!

I thought he was serviceable the first 20-ish games but he has been horrific the last week or two. Like unplayable bad.

Say what you want about Granato, but his teams could execute an offense pretty consistently and actually had a really good power play during his tenure. There were things they were bad at for sure, but they didn't look like an all around mess. Since Lindy came, what are they consistently good at besides penalty killing. They look like one of the worst coached teams in hockey...sloppy/lazy offense, brain dead defense, they can't even execute smart/crisp line changes.

He's have an aneurysm midway through his first period behind the bench with these guys.

Geeze, Dahlin...

Nice job, Upie.

When's the last time the Sabres had any of that? 2009?

Home just in time to see them give up a goal. Checks out.

He played well earlier this week. Hopefully he's starting a heater.

No idea what to expect. Will miss the first period and wouldn't be surprised to see them winning 3-0 or losing 5-0 when I get home around the start of the second. No consistency with these guys, a sign of a poorly coached team.

1-4-1 They'll win one they shouldn't, get another hard fought game into OT to ultimately lose, probably lose a couple close ones in regulation and get their teeth kicked in (like last night) another time or two. Same old Sabres. Fire Adams, fire Ruff.

Can't, he's the guy they have been grooming to promote to HC.

You poor fool...

Same old Sabres. Incapable of maintaining any kind of positive momentum. Just a bunch of lumps of silly putty on skates. 5 game west coast swing coming up. I'm sure that will go swimmingly. Once again my team crushes my hopes before the season is 1/3 over. Fire Adams. Fire ruff. ***** this team.

There's always nex... ***** me.

They watch surstromming challenge videos on YouTube.

This is a seriously flawed roster, but there's talent. Do you think the Flyers have a roster that much better than ours? They don't. They hired a good coach and he's maximizing the talent they do have. Lindy was a good coach 15-20 years ago. Since leaving the Sabres in 2013 he's a roughly 84 point/season coach who has made the playoffs 3 times in 12 (will be 13) seasons. He is objectively not a good coach. Only Kevyn Adams thought hiring him was a good idea and that's only because it was easy and he had some moronic notion that nostalgia would equal wins This team needs help roster-wise, sure; but more than that it needs an actual NHL coaching staff. And an actual NHL GM. And an owner that gives a frick about winning.

Flyers hire a real coach and suddenly they're a pretty damn good team. We hire Lindy, who let's be honest, is basically an animatronic bologna sandwich at this stage in his career, and we continue to suck. I'll say for the 100th time, this entire organization needs an enema from the top down, and until they do it nothing will change. Instead, Adams will probably get kicked (promoted) upstairs, Lindy to an advisor position, and Seth "the Hairdo" Appert promoted to HC because this is not a serious organization. FML

Awful. ***** this team.

*Sigh* Same old Sabres.

Well that was a very "same old Sabres" period.
