Pimlach Posted February 7, 2020 Report Share Posted February 7, 2020 17 minutes ago, Pimlach said: We lost to the worst team in the league. At home. On National TV. Skinner never saw a second of OT. I am not at all happy with that. Eichel forced to play almost the entire 3v3. Really, every time Eichel passed it away I cringed. Sabres Three Turds ? Joker ? ? Reinhart ? ? ? Montour And I think Vessey and ERod played like crap, even with their goals. Johansson, Sheary, and Girgs were all invisible. Don’t even get me started on Skinner. Ralph, it is your job to get the most out of every player, not only the fourth liners to where any contribution is a good contribution.

FogBat Posted February 7, 2020 Report Share Posted February 7, 2020 When we lost to the Avs the other day, I started thinking about the unevenly matched rugby scene from Monty Python's The Meaning of Life. Now, it's come to the point where you can force them to watch Randy Pausch's "Find Your Passion" speech, and they still couldn't get it.

Gatorman0519 Posted February 7, 2020 Report Share Posted February 7, 2020 I think it’s safe to say RK has clearly failed. Regardless of the line up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now he knows what he's got himself into. He wasn’t even close on either shot. Looked like Lehner out there. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm as pissed and critical as most on this board. But they're the Sabres. They're like a dysfunctional sibling, I can say bad about them but I'll kick your @ss if you say something bad about them. We have to hang in there with them. I’m trying Tondas. I’ve only missed I think 4 games since 1998. Im at my breaking point. I spend money on tickets, parking, food, jerseys, TV, and trying to raise my kid to love them, but I really feel like the people in charge really don’t care at all. I feel like the Sabres are now the winter car getting neglected and rusty with no oil changes, while the Bills are the shiny Rolls Royce. If the people in charge don’t care about the people supporting the team, then maybe I shouldn’t care either. I Am Duane. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

freester Posted February 7, 2020 Report Share Posted February 7, 2020 NBCSN just showed Sabres fans wearing bags over their heads. This is great. Hopefully the Pegulas saw this and fire Botteril immediately. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m disillusioned by RK. He started great. He held them together through a few rough patches and they were over 500 (non DeLuca) for Most of the season. A good coach has them playing with pride after the break, even as long shots. A team that finishes just a few points short of 8th might attract a few free agents. But not this group. I don’t know why this team does not play each other. They really aren’t a team in the true hockey sense. Kadri said what all the players feel. A perpetually Sh!tty team will not attract the right players to turn this around. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This right here in the bolded. I don't know what fans are expecting this off season, but no serious help is in route without a new standard from the ownership/management/coaching team that includes complete accountability, from top to bottom whereby if you don't perform, your ass is gone, it's that simple.

Gatorman0519 Posted February 7, 2020 Report Share Posted February 7, 2020 The continued silence from the top proves they don't care about fan moral. Duane should of been contacted by TP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On Ralph....I'm just not seeing it...we essentially hired a cheerleader, and either he can't coach or his assistant coaches can't coach. Even without talent we should at least look like we're giving an effort and play hard....we have neither..... Roster is pathetic, Thats on GM Jason.....Jason has no idea how to fix this mess and more importantly he created much of it with the all-time worst trade in Sabres history and has little capital to work a trade with. And yes MR KADRI you are correct WE"RE ***** and therefore we won't be getting any game changing free agent in the near future NO Post-Game Interview for Ralph on the Radio (Technical glitch they said) THANK-GOD I DIDN"T HAVE TO SUFFER THE SAME OLD TIRED RALPH RESPONSES 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KC Scouts Posted February 7, 2020 Report Share Posted February 7, 2020 I hate to ignite the Reinhart "Should he stay or should he go" debate...but his effort just illustrates my belief that he is not worth it (7 million or more). He's not my kind of player. Don't give me "he was tired" on the play.....if you are tired GET OFF THE ICE, If not SKATE HARD 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
