Last year this far into the season,  the Sabres were more than half way through their 13 game losing strek....8 games into it.

Even though last years team at game 29 was on an 8 game losing streak.....their record last year was 11-14-4

The record this year? 11-14-4.

If the Sabres were serious about this 3 goalie rotation they'd give each goalie 1 period a game.

I know this is a joke, but I think this is the only way they could possibly win. Dilute the suckness.

I'm not sure a team can legally dress 3 goalies. Something has to work for this team though.

If I felt any emotion at all for this team currently, this would be highly depressing.

Edmonton 4

Sabres 5

why?

I haven’t a clue, I guess even though my frustration with this team is showing stronger than normal these past couple of weeks I still have hope.

I made it to 2-0 last night. I’ve got my own hockey game at 9 tonight. How wonderful it would be to come back and watch the third period of a dominate Sabres win.

Casual observer tonight. Such a sad state of affairs

There really is no reason to win from here on out. It's not tanking, they are just plain bad. Zero chance they can get a 9 or 10 game win streak, so you might as well embrace the losses.

Pick in the top 3 most likely, trade Tage, trade dahlin, trade tuch, and start from scratch. Get the new GM and have a brand new identity from top to bottom. These players will all want out, if they already have not made ultimatums already. It's the right thing to do and there is one thing we already know...it CAN'T be any worse than it is right now. 

We as fans have to accept defeat, and so does Pegula. The flame has been extinguished, and only a complete overhaul will be able to get energy back into that building. It's gonna suck, but there are no other answers...

I just hope Norris doesn't have a body part explode/rupture/tear/fall off.

Flames just scored another empty net goal

Meh, personally I don’t want to see him injured but I’m rooting for chaos at this point. Anything that can throw this season into a complete tailspin, just to ensure bozo the GM isn’t anywhere near this team next season.  Don’t get me wrong, I can’t root for them to lose but I sure can get excited about events that might lead to Adams getting the axe.

My message to the billionaire...

[sabremike]

Hope they get absolutely hammered and humiliated here and in Vancouver because it will get noted by the hockey media north of the 48th parade in a way it wouldn't down here where it's all handegg throwball coverage. They will give Terry Ballard and Kevyn Milbury the public hammering both richly deserve (watch the Calgary feed from last night and see how they spent the whole game shitting on the entire organization).

I actually expect them to win this game. Edmonton falls into wide open offense easily and that's what Sabres like and do best in. Should be some goals scored tonight. If they come out flat and suck it will mean they have quit on the coach/season/team/etc. 

[ska-T Palmtown]

If I lived in Buffalo, I'd be all for starting some sort of picket line outside the stadium at random times ... sigh.

This is the kind of game they often inexplicably win.

Benson Tuch Thompson.  Is it that hard, Lindy???

Hope disguised as cynicism.  Love it.
