Multiple threads with you posting love for a guy who hired Ralph Krueger. I’m just having fun and if you remember correctly I hated the RK hire the day it happened.

How many times do people have to be burnt writing off prospects before they develop? 🤦🏼♂️ He's earned nothing since his junior days way back when. Since joining the AHL, he's shown zero progress. He should have been given the #4 job this year, and let him earn his way up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still don't think JBOT did other things well either. He meandered around with no plan. With no direction home. A complete unknown. Like a rolling stone. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnC Posted December 8, 2022 Report Share Posted December 8, 2022 7 minutes ago, GASabresIUFAN said: Skinner’s contract not looking so bad anymore. Skinner has also demonstrated that he does have an all-around game beyond shooting. He can pass and play a responsible defensive game. Thankfully, the Sabres have a coach who knows how to get value out of his players. As you point out Skinner is playing up to the value of his contract. 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t dislike Adams. As I’ve said 1000 times, I’m fully on board with the plan in general, I just want him to be more aggressive in fixing obvious areas on need, especially in areas where we have limited prospects like defense and goaltending.

JohnC Posted December 8, 2022 Report Share Posted December 8, 2022 One of the most interesting things about watching this game was the commentary during the periods. Each of the commentators basically made the same comment/observation that it is clear that this team has mastered the art of offense. But in order to make the leap from an interesting and entertaining team to being a serious team, they have to sacrifice some of their offensive style of play to a more responsible defensive game. In this game, the Sabres didn't show that they can do it just yet. (My opinion.) Clearly, the goaltending is not good enough. Also, this team gives up too many quality chances to the opposition. Once there is a better balance between the offense and defense, this team will be a factor. We're not there yet. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Porous Five Hole Posted December 8, 2022 Report Share Posted December 8, 2022 I wasn’t able to watch the pregame or either of the first two periods…did the TNT folks have nice things to say about the Sabres development during the intermissions and etc?

Rick Tocchet was with you on the postgame on TNT. He basically said the top two lines are doing so well it might be time to accelerate the build. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If not now with our offense is at the top of the NHL, when are we ever going to flip the switch and try to win? How many of the goals CBJ scored when Bryson and Pilut were on the ice? The answer is all of them. Time to make a move. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
