Heavyweights!

I've been pretty steadfast that I feel this is a playoff team this year; I no longer feel that way. This is the same old Sabres. Adams has not done good enough job, full stop. This is likely to be a very tight race for the playoffs in this conference, and that makes the games you lose in October/November hurt that much more. You cannot lose a bunch of games to the CBJ, Pens, Islanders, and Wings. 3/4 of those (if not all 4) won't be in the playoffs. The clock should be ticking on Adams's tenure. If they're out of the playoffs, he has to go.

Back-to-back losses to a bad Islanders team and a mediocre Red Wings team. These are the kinds of losses you're going to look back on when you're yet again on the outside looking in at the playoffs and shake your head. Same old Sabres.

Two word review for that period: ***** sandwich

I don't know why I continue to do this to myself with this garbage franchise.

SIIIGGGGHHHHH

Samuelsson is a liability right now.

Power play remains a ***** show.

This is the kind of game the Sabres usually dominate...right after a disappointing loss. 5-2 Sabres.

Uh, Utah's not an expansion team.

This team is just painful to root for. Anytime you start to think there's some progress, they quickly revert to garbage.

Trash team is trash. 🗑️

Injury sucks, never want to see that, but that was a clean hit. 👎

Sabres stuff.

Story of the last 3 years for this team. Win a few games, look like you're making progress, then come out and ***** the bed while looking like garbage. Constant stutter steps.

This team makes me drink.

4-1 Sabres. I can feel it in my marrow.

No, I meant my thinking as of today is that they end up the last team in come April.

As of today, I think they end up the last team in. We're 3 games into a 22 game stretch that includes 15 home games. When this stretch ends on 12/11, I think we'll have a good idea how serious a contender this team is.

My issue is we've been sold on a "process" with no measurable expectations assigned to it. There is a core in place going on their 3rd to 4th season together. The expectations this year need to be no lower than playoffs. If they are not playing in the postseason, Adams needs to be gone and a good, veteran GM needs to be hired to evaluate the roster top to bottom and suss out which pieces are really a part of a team that will chase a cup. The problem is that Adams is personally attached to too many of these guys and I think that clouds his objectivity. We have looked much better since the 0-3 start and there's still plenty of runway for this team to put it together and finally get to the playoffs. I think they just might, but if they fail to do so, a lot of changes need to happen because of your "process" isn't working by year 4, you did it wrong. On to the next one...

I'm not mad, just disappointed.

Everytime I see Matty Ellis ..

Thanks, Greer. Dummy.
