I think this article does a fair job on grading the players.  I have some quibbles, but nothing significant.  However what of the team’s record, the coaching and Jbot.

1) The team’s record.  17-17-7 seems like improvement, but not enough.  C- .  This organization made huge changes adding a new HC, a new goalie coach, added Joker, Miller, Vesey, MoJo and VO to the roster to start the season with new-ish holdover Montour, but all the problems remain.  Secondary scoring still missing and good center play still missing.

2) Coaching C - still lack structure. PK stinks, PP fall apart.  Hutton has fallen apart in net.  Also while some guys have thrived in the new system many others have just disappeared especially key forwards not named Eichel and VO.

3) Jbot.  Great add in Joker, but everything else isn’t working. D.

This season has not felt dissimilar to the sensation one has when they need to *****, so they go to the bathroom, squat down and contrary to your literal gut instinct, nothing comes out save for a few dribbles of piss and you're left sitting there feeling like Tom Brady (except he at least has the satisfaction of having more superbowl rings than the sabres have playoff wins in the last decade). Despite the phantom poop, you still attempt to wipe because a. you're not a savage and b. just in case something was there.  Of course the paper comes out with nothing on it and that disturbing nothingness is how this season has felt to me.

I think it's more like you feel you've been waiting for a while and then you feel it's finally here and this is it, get ready to clog that bowl and..........just a lot of gas.
