Tondas Posted November 15, 2017 Report Share Posted November 15, 2017 Now watch Phil say in his presser that we didn't play well and he's disappointed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WanderingEye Posted November 15, 2017 Report Share Posted November 15, 2017 I guess we're at the point where an acceptable effort is good enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Billznut Posted November 15, 2017 Report Share Posted November 15, 2017 Up 3-1 early, outscored 4-1 after that point. They can’t play from ahead or behind. The hole just gets deeper. This season is pretty much lost already. If you’re not in it by Thanksgiving, most teams can’t recover. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randall Flagg Posted November 15, 2017 Report Share Posted November 15, 2017 (edited) I probably wouldn't play Eich at C in OT, he's just lost in his own zone and that gets made worse when it's 3v3 with all that space.  Not blaming that play on Lehner at all, but is there a worse goalie when the play is to the short side, and the save attempt would be a post-hug of some kind?

DarthEbriate Posted November 15, 2017 Report Share Posted November 15, 2017 One of these games a d-man is going to score a goal and we'll be quite alright. You'll see. Stupid little short circuit. We'll be quite alright! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billznut Posted November 15, 2017 Report Share Posted November 15, 2017 Year after year of both the Sabres and Bills sucking ass. When will we ever get a break? Certainly not this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Â Actually, the Bills at least make it interesting while the Sabres continue to be years away. 1 win vs Chargers and we add 3 more weeks of being alive. Sabres are out of it with 5 months to go in the season....hopeless. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rickshaw Posted November 15, 2017 Report Share Posted November 15, 2017 (edited) Moves that need to be made.  Lehner move Kane move ( sell high ) Reinhart Moulson ( waive ) Bogosian ( made of glass )  These are changes that need to be made. Get what you can for guys like Bogo. The culture this club needs to change. Bring up Fasching and Nylander, get a stud defenseman for Kane.  Should have kept Nilsson. The guy has 2 so in 4 games for Canucks. He deserves more ice.  It’s tjmes like this that I really get mad at GMTM. We had soooooo many picks and he wasted soooo many.

Thorny Posted November 15, 2017 Report Share Posted November 15, 2017 Good effort from the boys tonight, feeling for them a little. Â Losing to the reigning, defending champs isn't such a black mark though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wyldnwoody44 Posted November 15, 2017 Report Share Posted November 15, 2017 The only way to get good, is to beat teams, and specifically, beat good teams.... I don't want to hear excused about a "good game" you went into the 3rd with the lead, and $hit the bed.... I don't care how or why, but you did.

CallawaySabres Posted November 15, 2017 Report Share Posted November 15, 2017 I am having a really hard time figuring out how low expectations are when people are fine blowing a 3-1 and 4-3 lead to a slumping Penguins team.

And Nylander just started skating again, and you want to call him up? Yeesh. Overreaction city. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This fan base is officially battered beyond repair......I'm with you man, this game was not ok, I thought we were sold a fast, mobile game... Instead we have non physical players, a terrible PP, and inability to close games out. I'm not ok with this games 3rd period Still not a fan of the goaltender Saw his post game presser, he's hot, which I get, but I fear Robin can't control his temper and that is not ok for a goalie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weave Posted November 15, 2017 Report Share Posted November 15, 2017 This game reminded me of the Bills games when we were winning by unsustainable levels of turnovers.  It never felt like we were going to win, even when we were up. It felt like it was only time before the Pens took over the scoreboard.  When we attacked, we had maybe one chance and play was turned the other way, but when Pens attacked there were 2-3 chances. The ice wasn’t lopsided, but the quality of the play was from what I could see.  And Jack, you got caught flat footed. Again. It’s a thing with you. Did you see the way Sid was tenacious on the puck? Yeah. You need to do that. Every. Fecking. Play. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
