Scottysabres Posted November 12, 2023 Report Share Posted November 12, 2023 Just now, thewookie1 said: He’s looked a bit better, the giveaway that gave Crosby that chance was forced by two Penguin sticks. we haven’t played great tonight but we seem to be getting zero bounces tonight. We shouldn't have to rely on bounces every night. The team is poorly coached or they lack the skill. Judging by the end of last seadon, I'm leaning poorly coached. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pimlach Posted November 12, 2023 Report Share Posted November 12, 2023 Well. We really needed to win that period and instead we gave up another late bad goal. It’s going to be a difficult 3rd. He had a few chances but not cashing in. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Believer Posted November 12, 2023 Report Share Posted November 12, 2023 Bad period… Soft goal… No O-zone time… Trouble clearing our D-zone… Score could be worse… Time for our scorers to show up Time to rush the net. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
... Posted November 12, 2023 Report Share Posted November 12, 2023 I recall that not too far in the distant past this team could actually complete passes. What happened to that team? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PASabreFan Posted November 12, 2023 Report Share Posted November 12, 2023 I'm still reeling from Rob's description of DG's coaching. "Usually he just stands there and lets the guys figure it out." I mean, I think he's bad. But I always assume I am full of it. I don't want confirmation from the team's color commentator. 1 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Terry has him sowing the seeds of Donny's firing by dropping hints like that on the broadcast. Trying to soften the blow 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, there probably is a better coach out there. The question is, do we know who that is, are they available and do they enjoy pickle ball in senior communities after 8pm? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Judging by the thousands of empty seats at KBC and nobody giving a ***** about this team (go drive around the Buffalo area and see every other house with a Bills flag and virtually no Sabres ones) people seem to have taken your advice to heart. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gatorman0519 Posted November 12, 2023 Report Share Posted November 12, 2023 The Sabres stole one last night because of Levi. The offense is worse tonight as is the goaltending. Need to light a fire in the third. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Believer Posted November 12, 2023 Report Share Posted November 12, 2023 It’s a Pegula, Adams, Granato issue… Buffalo Love won’t happen until these three make it happen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Granato says last season was offense training, and he says this season is defense training, yet Adams says the goal is the playoffs, then the problem is Granato. Clearly the team is better at offense than defense. Granato needs to go imho. I know we all love the "Meatballs" affection, but let's be completely honest here. There is an abundance of talent on this team, they are not being coached well if you look at the play on the ice. I mean, cone on now, thos is ridiculous, no net front presence, panic passing, panic when pressured, constant loss of puck control. And the list goes on. Coaching at some point, matters. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
