Our "youth" is only learning bad habits and that they're not good enough individually (whether true or not). This has been going on for 13 years. History repeating itself. We just have a new group of “core” young players who have no idea how to win or what it takes to win in this league and they were given the keys to the kingdom before they were ready and had proven themselves. The Sabres have been doing this exact thing for years now and it never ever works. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Believer Posted December 3, 2023 Report Share Posted December 3, 2023 No team respects the Sabres… No evidence the Sabres respect themselves… Team needs a shake up… Sit Samuelson… Sit Power… Put pressure on the forwards to get aggressive… Granato should sit in the press box for a few games with Adams and Pegula… and watch the team he is sending out each night… 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does he think the current roster can do this, or are they too weak to stand up for themselves? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slack_in_MA Posted December 3, 2023 Report Share Posted December 3, 2023 3 minutes ago, Ducky said: They are with a starting goalie. Interesting take. What is it about the effort, excluding goal-tending, from these last two games that leads you to that conclusion? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rickshaw Posted December 3, 2023 Report Share Posted December 3, 2023 It is so true. Other teams know we are soft, the refs know we are soft. The team knows they’re soft. Won’t change until the makeup of the team is changed. Gallant wouldn’t appreciate the softness that’s for sure. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spoonman Posted December 3, 2023 Report Share Posted December 3, 2023 53 minutes ago, DarthEbriate said: Dang it. I'm back in. (Dinner was tasty.) But I do want to consider one thing. I wonder what Adams would do if Pegula actually gave an ultimatum of, "You will make the playoffs in 2024-25 or you and Granato are both fired." (Unfortunately, I think it's too late to give such an ultimatum for this season because opposing teams are still in contention and Tage/Quinn really need to be in the lineup.) I'm guessing UPL and Comrie wouldn't be the goalies, VO and KO would be moved post-haste, etc. @DarthEbriate see my new thread on this topic Deja Vu all over again..... 6 minutes ago, Doohickie said: I tuned out after the CAR short handed goal, but it looks like I owe Krebsie this @Doohickie You just wanted a pooch on this thread.

Obviously defense needs help but good grief asking our goalies to keep us in a game is too much to ask. Way to go KA. @Sabretooth See my new thread "Deja Vo all over again...." for my thoughts.

The team is a reflection of its leaders… Granato is an undemanding nice guy… to quick to explain away individual and team failure… Okposo is a nice guy… to quick to explain away miserable effort and losses… Make him a Player Coach… let him play 6 minutes a game.

SABRES 0311 Posted December 3, 2023 Report Share Posted December 3, 2023 Sell the team. Move it to a different city. In five years make an expansion team in Buffalo. Use the VGK model. Win a cup. 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FrenchConnection44 Posted December 3, 2023 Report Share Posted December 3, 2023 Horrendous coaching. Bad habits from so many players. Have to change the coaching situation. Find a veteran who will be respected. And who can institute a good system and get the players to toughen up. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HumanSlinky39 Posted December 3, 2023 Report Share Posted December 3, 2023 Such a frustrating team. We're past 1/4 through the season, at what point do you do something to shake things up? I know not having Tage and Quinn is a blow, but these struggles are beyond that. Bring in a proven winner to coach (Gallant is tanned, rested, and ready) and go get a good veteran goalie to tandem with UPL; Comrie ain't it. The playoffs SHOULD be the goal and that ain't happening without some changes. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PASabreFan Posted December 3, 2023 Report Share Posted December 3, 2023 So it seems Carolina rolled out a play by play-less broadcast tonight.
