GDT:Oh Crap,They Play Again Today. Pittsburgh at Buffalo, 3/13/21 7pm MSG, WGR

[Pimlach]

No timeout with 1:53 left and a faceoff  with the goalie pulled.  
 

Ralph is not a coach.  Why not set up a play were we put 55 in front of the next and set  up a screen shot?  
 

Hutton did great.  Everyone else should be ashamed.  No “physical response” as the coach hinted at.  Nothing.

8 empty net goals leads the league.  Way to go.  RK....sorry but you are way over your head

They're not on a losing streak, they're on a winless streak.

Losses where you get points are still technically losses. They have factually lost 10 straight games. 

They aren't on a 10 game pointless streak, however

I mean seriously, where is the bar for ownership? Just how low does it have to go before Ralph is gone? 10 losses in a row, really Pegula? Wake the frig up and fire this ass  clown. Enough was enough 10 losses ago.

I asked this exact question on here back after loss 3. I asked would it take 6, 10, 15?? No one really answered up. I was being dead serious back then. I knew this owner wouldn’t make a move no matter how bad it got. I bet we can lose 20 straight and they still won’t make a move. Do the Pegulas honestly not know they are the laughingstock of the NHL? 

[Torpedo Forecheck]

If we don't win Tuesday at NJ this streak could go into the high teens with RK coaching. We still have 8 games with Boston left.

[Norcal]

Nice response Ralph

Add in the GM 

Can't stand RK and Kevyn is not far behind

[Torpedo Forecheck]

OMG 4 regulation wins all season, last in the NHL. 

[pi2000]

RK prolly gonna say "I liked the way we came out and responded physically.  Carter gave us a chance, unfortunately we didn't get the bounces."

The record is 18, btw. 

I think these Sabres have a shot at beating that. 

“The Pittsburgh Penguins hold the record for the longest losing streak in NHL history at 18 games, which was set in the 2003–04 season; that team finished last in the NHL with a 23–47–8–4 record (58 points).”

[Cheektorado]

I remember the '70s when I was young and it was fun to be a Sabres fan!

I watched youtube videos during this mess of a game.  Bitter Sweet.

Per the NHL, for statistical record keeping, they're technically not on a losing streak.

I say this season is a pointless streak until they get a new, clearly qualified coach.

[Pimlach]

Pens on a 12-0-2 run in our building.  Unbelievable.  

[Norcal]

Thompson wasn't completely invisible.

He is working his ass off the last two games. I wish he finished his checks instead of turning away last second just do it.

Creative accounting at work.

[bunomatic]

Well that was craptastic. 

Thanks for nothing Ralph. And Terry . You can go take a flying ****.

10 years gone.

Has an outgoing coach ever been forced to apologize to the city?

[Second Line Center]

Alex Nylander 2016 8th overall. 

Casey Mittelstadt 2017 8th overall.  

Back to back top 10 busts.

 

And we wonder why we are where we are.  

Oh and in the middle of those 2 disasters, we trade ROR for Tage Thompson.  

And 2018s first overall generational D Man looks completely lost.

 

I totally trust our scouts know who to target when we trade Staal Hall and Montour.  

It's going to be a return of a 2nd round and two 4th round picks anyway.

I was 5 yrs old when my parents took me to a game where Lorentz knocked a bat out 9f the air with his stick. I was 3 rows up from the glass, my dad just wanted to see the Cup raised by the Sabres, he's  been gone for 7 years now. I suspect my fate will be the same.

I said this earlier, a good friend is a Penguins fan and he has nothing but empathy for me.

Ah, I didn't see that he had used "record" which you are correct, would concern the league definition of "losing streak"

Regardless, they've lost 10 straight games

[Billznut]

The season isn’t even halfway over yet. God help us 🤦‍♂️
