I want to see McDavid or Draisaitl get lit up. I’m tired of both of these players.
why? They're great players and fun to watch.

I'm going to start out that I'm a grumpy old man....when did hockey broadcasts become unwatchable? It's all talking and no play by play. 3 people just chatting during the action. Playoff hockey is great, crowds going nuts and these idiots are just talking during . Then a goal is scored and they stop and say...and it's in. Come on. They need to watch old HNIC of Danny Gallivan and Dick Irvin. Also, listen to RJ once in a while. ESPN puts too much on the screen. Pics of 5 players and the amount of ice time. Highlighting the player with the puck on the PP. Unnecessary. Ok, I'm done.

It would be a consensus, as it is now. I really don’t think KA is making any unilateral roster decisions as a TM or JB did. Look, this isn’t about day to day responsibilities. It’s about how to keep our FO intact if another team comes knocking to poach. Giving a person a promotion, via new title and increased pay, is reason enough to want to stay in Buffalo. People usually like what they do. They leave jobs when their boss is unbearable or they don’t feel appreciated.
maybe he doesn't make unilateral decisions but he is ultimately responsible. It's possible one of these guys wants to be in charge of their own team.

30 goal scorers drafted in the 7th round don’t grow on trees.
what types of players do grow on trees?

Karmanos and Ventura are heavily involved in the decision making process and Adams listens to them.
I understand that

To retain individuals. Adams comes across as a team first guy.
still don't need a president and GM. Who makes the final calls on roster decisions?

Sabres must have a contingency plan here. Adams gets promoted to POHO and Ventura/Karanos gets GM title.
what if Adams likes being GM and the work that comes with it ? Why would we need a POHO and a GM?

Hopefully Anderson is in net for his sendoff. He has been a great soldier the past two years and gave them the best goaltending over that two year span even at his advanced hockey age.
soldier?

impressive. Amazing how quickly we got so good on offense.

I think the kid needs a break. But we need this game and he’ll sit one of NYR/NJD a few days later.
Based on Levi’s whole vibe, I imagine he is drooling to play at MSG.
why? only a few games left. Plenty of time to rest over the summer

Will be interesting to see if Granato can keep the focus and intensity up with playoff chances barely mathematically possible.
Players, not Granato

While disappointing, the end result surely wasn’t unexpected. That was a playoff tested team that refused to go down. Hopefully the boys are learning from it.
I want to echo PerraultForever. The team needs to learn to initiate the physicality and force the other team into adjusting to it.
I couldn’t watch the whole game. From what I did see, Tuch stood out to me. Expectedly. His playoff environment experience was on display. We could have used a little more of that.
Good point. We still get pushed around too much. A couple of improvements and this team should be in the playoffs for a long time

Most naysayers don't want to acknowledge the youth factor. These are the 9 youngest teams in the NHL:
Columbus, Arizona, and the Habs are on the ground floor of their rebuilds. Ottawa and Vancouver have been trying to avoid a rebuild for years and failing. Detroit has been rebuilding for half a decade. I don't know wtf Philly is doing, but they're a long way from good. The Devils have been rebuilding for a few years and it came together this year. Besides NJ, the Sabres are the only team on that list that had a realistic chance at the playoffs come April. And they didn't even start properly rebuilding until 2021 after they realized "shortcuts" like Taylor Hall were fool's gold. I wouldn't be at all surprised if they make a similar leap to NJ next year with finally competent goaltending.
Are you kidding? Every post starts with how young this team is.

It will be interesting to see how they do if they need a win at the very end to get in.
would be great to see this

Hate to say it, but this is in the Sabres hands. They win and the should make it. Florida has a rough schedule ahead. Sabres need to just keep winning. But, we know how that went last time
why do you hate to say it?

Levi will play Tuesday. We were so awful with turnovers tonight - my guess is the sh*tty ice surface led to at least some of this
how do you know the ice was bad?

Well, I want us to make the playoffs too, not sure what you're implying with that comment, but I don't know how "well-rested" Levi is after the hype of the last few days.
21 years old, a couple of practices and one game. why would he be tired?

Warm and humid today in Philly. Expect lousy ice.
mid 60s and breezy at 7pm plus it's indoors with AC

at this point if Levi becomes nothing more than an average NHL goalie... I'll take it. Thats how bad our goaltending has been.
But we used to take pride in having good goaltending. It was part of our identity & we just got away from it... I hope Levi brings that respectability back.
Some fear would be nice too! It'd be nice to have a goalie other teams feared playing against.
that would considered a failure
