Lyon

[SwampD]

Just go in 5 to 4 goddamnit!

[JoeSchmoe]

We are unquestionably not making the playoffs until UPL's contract expires.

[Brawndo]

Warrener moved back to Buffalo for a year with his family in 2023 for trial period. They ended up moving back to Calgary obviously

You got me. One bad goal. So they are all bad goals now. That's how it works here.

Rhett, we will all be dead by the time they win a championship. People have stuck by this shitshow for 14+ seasons of no playoffs and an owner that is a moron!

[HumanSlinky39]

Sabres power play

Don’t blame him

 Trade/cut UPl and Lyon and go with Levi and Ellis - what’s there to lose by doing this?? Can we cut Ruff and Adams too?

Ok, here is the thing about UPL, especially tonight.

He is facing tougher shots than he should be due to defensive breakdowns.

BUT, that doesn't mean EVERY goal is excusable.

If your D-man has a blatant giveaway, or a guy gets by your defense and a cross ice pass hits him in the stick. the goaltender CAN on occasion get over quick enough to make a save.

For numbers sake, lets say the last 20 times the Sabres in front of him has basically 'hung UPL out to dry'...that doesn't mean that 10 goals are expected or excusable.  A good goalie might stop 60-70% of those PRIME shots. It seems like UPL is allowing more than that.

I can't blame UPL as the reason most of the goals scored on the team tonight.  However, I can say if he was better (not below average) he would have one or two more saves on those tough shots than he does.

We were raised on Dom. What do you expect?

[ASlugAbove]

UPL, it's been real, but it's time to release him. Waive Greenway, and bring back Östlund.

Levi has been less than stellar lately.

I will add the entire front office, the entire scouting staff and even the strength and conditioning staff

Rhett's got a good heart.

He better come out in the 3rd. UPL is toast.

If we can tie it, he can’t protect it tonight.

Give the team a chance, Ruff.

[Gatorman0519]

It’s a nightmare that never ends. There is zero hope it will ever change. The NHL should step in.

Is there a universe where 4 goals on 19 shots is good?

Yes, it was discovered by Rocketship 7 in 1968.  

[HumanSlinky39]

This is just a ***** team coached by ***** coaches.

Horribly flawed roster, and if they actually practice, they obviously suck at that, too.

Class guy. 

[Forecheck]

The Sabres will go winless on this trip and STILL not make a change when they get back. You can book that.
