He's sulking cause he can't get $11 million a year for 8 years.  

He’s not even worth close to that. He’s maybe 6 million tops

The  real indictment of the entire Adams era is this Sabres team falling apart in the 3rd against the worst team in the NHL

About to be Sabres-Bills-Sabres-Bills.  Time to double up on the Zestril.  

Bills are playing Saturday after going tomorrow night?  Wow, the NFL schedule really is getting nuts.  😉

Lindy said they didn't respect the Flames.

 

That’s code for terrible effort.  
 

Im sure Calgary didn’t respect us either. 
 

Not enough talent here to take nights off - or give just 75 percent.  They can’t do it unless the goalie stands on his head.  Getting down 2-0 can’t happen in a game like this.

Why are, of all teams in the NHL, the Calgary Flames reigning supreme in the Sabres barn?  

They usually win IN Calgary, but they look like trash against them in Buffalo.  The exact opposite of their provincial neighbor Eulers.

 

Why, for as good as he played the rest of the game, did Samuelsson take the puck away from Ellis only to give it to the Flame?

Why did the NHL overrule the refs on a call that it took the Calgary coaches more than their entire timeout's time to decide to challenge?  And why is Seth Appert still devising the Sabres power play?  IF there was ANY possibility the Sabres MIGHT score on one, they wouldn't have risked the challenge and possibly having the score tied less than 2 minutes later.  But the Sabres PP is hot trash and doesn't scare anyone.

Why, after looking good together for 5 periods did Byram and Timmons decide to look like the pair that was playing in Detroit before Kesselring broke?  They were horrible in the 3rd.

Why, do we have Quinn, Rosen, and Bryson out on the ice at the same time?  

Why did Tuch look so disinterested out there?

Why did Doan try to pass when in the slot and then get the puck back along the boards near the blue line and decide to shoot from there?

 

Sooooo many questions, so few answers.

 

???????????????????

1 win in regulation in the last 9 games since 15 minutes a night, 2 points on the season, and a minus 5 Jordan Greenway has come back to suck even more offense out of the room. 
 

PLEASE PUT ANYONE THAT CAN SCORE AT ALL IN FOR HIM.

Yeah, haven’t really been a fan of Greenway.

Is this as bad as the Colorado Collapse?

Colorado is good.  Da’ Flames are 32nd.

Pretty much. How do you crap the bed like this after such a solid game?

We came out flat and the Flames came out flying to start the game and to start the final period.

That’s both coaching and lack of player determination. The Flames wanted it more than we did. Confounding until you realize the team quit in the final minutes.

It can only get worse after it sinks in this will be another year of no post season play and it’s not even Thanksgiving.

They don't battle. They don't seem to care. They accept losing too easily. I hate to say it but it is just like Shorsey. "they don't hate to lose". In all these years they have had a broken culture and they do not fix it. They just think it will fix itself and it doesn't. 

Fine and dandy for guys like Tage to say they took them lightly but where was he? What was his mantra? I did the work with Detroit so it's your turn tonight? Was that it? It has to be every game. Every shift. Every loose puck. It just never is. 

Lazy stupid team.

Ruff, the Captain and Assistants didn’t respect the Flames, the fans, or themselves.

Games like this make me want to hire Tortorella to bag skate them into submission, subtract half the roster and create enough chaos to build something new out of. 

I know I know, dinosaur, over the hill, not the guy we want. I don't care. I just want to hire him to punish these guys. They deserve it.

With Kekäläinen as GM it could happen.

I’m not sure I want him as the GM or anyone that is currently in this organization. I actually want the whole hockey department fired, from top to bottom. Almost like starting an expansion team. The scouting department isn’t good enough with as many picks as they have had and you don’t really have much to show for it. I mean how many more smallish players is this team gonna draft. We need players with some size that have sand paper in their game. All upper management gone, all the scouting department gone, head coach along with assistant coaches gone, and yes even the strength and conditioning coach gone. This is unacceptable with what has happened to this franchise. They are the laughing stock of the entire league. 

What happens with Tuch? Do you overpay him or do you move him? If he gets moved then how much longer before Dahlin and Thompson want out? Then Byram will want out once his two year deal is up. The cycle will just continue and nobody wants Adams to make any trades because he doesn’t get enough back in return.
