Nitro60 Posted December 12, 2018 Report Share Posted December 12, 2018 Phil has never my choice for HC and this still stands. This team is in need of direction and a man who can motivate them. I just do not see it happening with Phil. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
North Buffalo Posted December 12, 2018 Report Share Posted December 12, 2018 ugh wth... Best line is the Larrson line and that sucks for the Sabres Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Radar Posted December 12, 2018 Report Share Posted December 12, 2018 Okay we're down a couple defensemen and go from ten straight wins to six straight losses? Or did those ten straight wins represent one of the biggest flukes in team history. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nitro60 Posted December 12, 2018 Report Share Posted December 12, 2018 Losing to one of the worst teams in the NHL They have a 4 - 9 road record. Sabres are showing a lack of effort and cohesion Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R_Dudley Posted December 12, 2018 Report Share Posted December 12, 2018 Switching to some of the other games. This team is in trouble when we play some of the better teams that are finding their stride now. Caps, 5-0 Det, Bruins were down 3-0 now winning 4-3 over Ariz, To winning, Sens playing good this team getting worse. that winning streak may have been the worse thing that could have happened becuase this team stopped working hard and still got lucky. They didn't realize hard work makes the puck bounce your way.. This team is well on the way to that dubious record of losing 10 after winning...

bunomatic Posted December 12, 2018 Report Share Posted December 12, 2018 No Friggin urgency. The losing streak has zapped them of any confidence that they may have gained in the winning streak. I don't see this ending any time soon by the looks of things. They are terrible 5 on 5. The ice seems slanted to our end. The Power play is an embarrassment. Absolutely no secondary scoring. I don't see anybody willing to lead. Do we have leaders ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darksabre Posted December 12, 2018 Report Share Posted December 12, 2018 I'm glad they're taking this ref to task for his stupid command that lead to that goal. He totally screwed with Pilut. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thorny Posted December 12, 2018 Report Share Posted December 12, 2018 Do we have a team prone to large swings in play as a result of where their heads are at? Ride waves of confidence to wins, ride the tide of doubt to multiple losses? And so forth? Hard to even quantify someone like that. Perhaps moves made by Botterill in the summer were to try and level some of that out. Who knows. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RonHextallsShoulderPads Posted December 12, 2018 Report Share Posted December 12, 2018 I still have faith. They’re not playing desperate, they’re not getting in front of the net and they’re not taking the body. These are adjustments that can be made. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why they have gone back to coasting is beyond me. If the team comes out slow in the 3rd I may have to take a game or two off in watching................they sure have taken a bunch off. Pushing hard and going down in flames I can take............this stuff lately I can't! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He totally screwed with Pilut. However... it isn't like it led directly to the goal. The puck made a couple trip around the zone before the shot. Blaming it on that is weaksauce. I'm more upset that Dahlin made the play that allowed the second goal. Horrible. Edited December 12, 2018 by Doohickie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris223 Posted December 12, 2018 Report Share Posted December 12, 2018 Just back to reality... we still have a ways to go and Botts knows that too. He didn’t let the streak cloud that, guaranteed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He totally screwed with Pilut. I'm still not sure he said Buff and not bud, but it doesn't matter. He didn't need to say anything. OTOH Marty said it's the ref's discretion to blow the whistle if no one plays it — isn't it also his discretion to call a penalty on someone for delay of game?

John Tucker Posted December 12, 2018 Report Share Posted December 12, 2018 I’m sure this has been asked before (don’t feel like scrolling through) but has there ever been a 10 game winning streak followed by a 10+ game losing streak?
