An unacceptable loss.ย He's worse than terrible as I've read here numerous times. Yet he was better than them today.ย Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Radar Posted January 20 Report Share Posted January 20 I think Granato and associates have to be gone after this season. No real reasonable reason for keeping them. 5 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pimlach Posted January 20 Report Share Posted January 20 Well I only saw the last 8:32 so Iโll refrain from comment but what I saw was good effort with no finish. ย Junk goalies tend to beat us. ย ย The story of the game must be that two lunch bucket guys score on Sabres turnovers and the Sabres big guns not answering.ย Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pastajoe Posted January 20 Report Share Posted January 20 That weak effort by Mittlestat along the boards that cost them the first goal is a perfect example of why Iโd rather he get traded. Heโll never be a reliable top 6 forward who can play both ways. They have enough of those already signed. Get a top 4 D in exchange. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
