The first and the last probably. That and for the most part our guys were either a step behind on every play in the first or standing around watching. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Give’m even more leash when they are home. Throw Keggers the night before a game. I bet they kill it. They play like their strict parents are judging them when they are home. On the road they are free to be who they are. The Bills are done. I feel the exact opposite. At home, they are free to be who they are wherever and with whomever they’re with. Little structure. Whereas on the road, they are totally structured with their time schedules tightly managed. Again, I chalk it up to a maturity issue. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Getpucksdeep Posted February 22, 2023 Report Share Posted February 22, 2023 1 hour ago, North Buffalo said: Sabres pressed in the first couldnt pass through a neutral zone trap... That is on Donnie to see that and get the guys to dump and chase till Leaves open up... led to too many odd man chances and UPL lost his confidence. Cant have that happen.. guys were too hyped... they played better when they simplified their game... You cant open against a team like TO until they do. This is what I saw too. First 3-4 minutes Sabres had the better possession and half of that was in Leafs zone. They got hyped and jumpy then boom mistakes made and it's in the back of the net. Marner and Taveres are out there ffs. Show some respect, they are gonna counter punch, don't be dumb. Game was over before they knew what hit 'em. A save or two would have been nice but they were primo chances. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PerreaultForever Posted February 22, 2023 Report Share Posted February 22, 2023 You can analyze this up and down and around all you want but it'll still come down to the 3 holes at the beginning of the season (goalie, RHD, 2 way 3C) still being the glaring holes they are at this point of the season. In the end this team is consistent in finding ways to disappoint. Of course ROR scores his first goal as a Leaf in Buffalo. Of course he gets a hat trick. F'n ROR. Guess he loves his hockey. This team makes me drink too much. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CallawaySabres Posted February 22, 2023 Report Share Posted February 22, 2023 Well I’m pretty sure the majority of my anger last night was due to watching this game with my kids. It was the first game in months where we were all fired up together to see some meaningful hockey in a huge game. everybody was let down immediately, and with ror scoring 2 right off the bat, I mean, come on. We turned the game off 10 minutes in and it just really ruined something I was looking forward to. I should have expected it it and kind of did….but man, what is with this group at home. This was an opportune chance to really win many of the fans back, including my son, and they could not have fallen any flatter on their faces. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
inkman Posted February 22, 2023 Report Share Posted February 22, 2023 There was only one thing this team could not do last night. Then they went and did exactly that. I’ve said it here before and I’ll say it again. No one knows how to squash goodwill like this Sabres team. This fanbase has been on the precipice of going all in for a year now. In spectacular fashion, the Sabres ensured that not one effing person is going to make that leap. I guess thanks for letting us know early in the playoff race, that they are pretenders. 2 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wins against SJ and Anaheim are illusions. The gap they have to cross to being a playoff team is further than we think. Proven by not being competitive against playoff teams. Long ways to go.

WhenWillItEnd66 Posted February 22, 2023 Report Share Posted February 22, 2023 Well, after another home stinker.... This team is what it is... a slightly better team then it was last year, with some glaring problems that we have always had. No push, no guts, no real defensemen to play defense (Muel cannot do it on his own), and no forwards with balls to get into the dirty area. We can score a bit better, but the kids are nothing but kids still. A couple of years away from maturing. No playoffs for us, as we are about to get our collective ***** handed to us in the next few weeks. We are kinda like the Bills last year....we won games but the glaring problems were there for the whole world to see but ignored by the fans. Granato did as promised. Put an entertaining team on the ice. They are inconsistent and very young with missing pieces. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skibum Posted February 22, 2023 Report Share Posted February 22, 2023 The Sabres still look like little kids when up against cagey veterans on winning teams. I suppose they can yet earn a playoff spot, but they are going to get annihilated in round 1. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
