Maybe if the guy would stop holding there hand and giving out sugar cookies in the locker room and bust some chops, maybe we would see something different.

Well Miller and Dahlin haven't really done much of that.
- Buff36


Sabres never really asked phail lousley to be some kind of defensive defenseman.

They didnt ask mike Ramsey to score.

Play dahlin as a 4th forward maybe with a defensive minded forward line. Or at least someone with some awareness.

I agree, let the kid just play, he was supposed to be generational for a reason.

I wasnt implying you liked Hutton, sorry if it was worded that way.

Really 3 things to blame

Hutton and the idea that he would help is win this season

Goal scorers are really snake bitten

Ralph playing veteran advantage games.

Okposo- treating him like a human
Skinner - I actually like he creating play himself, but maybe get him going , by boosting confidence with eichel
Holding dahlin back.
1. Keeps him from producing
2. Puts him in a bad defensive position- playing defense šŸ™‚

- Boss34


I didnt take it that way, no.

The rest of the post is spot on.

If he hasnā€™t already.

I hope we look decent but most likely the ā€œWeā€™re only 1 point out of a playoff spotā€ crowd will likely be silenced.

Strange, Edmonton started with McDavid off the opening face off.

It might be time to consider trading eichel ?

Top 3 all time sabre, but year 6 without a playoff appearance, when 1/2 the league makes it.

3 years with eichel under his rookie deal

- Boss34


Took OV forever to win a championship-
13years i believe

Took Stamkos forever too- 12years?

Obviously our rebuild has been screwed up
But not every one goes like PITā€™s did

Yes. For awhile now this franchise seems to play to minimally satisfy the job requirement. Their best games are always followed up with total dog efforts.

Maybe after this stretch they will reevaluate and decide what, if any, changes should start to be assessed. Aye. Methinks itā€™s already too late. Yeah yeah trust the process, some positives, some points. But too many concerns, holes, uninspired efforts and more of similar regressions without the coaching adjustments. I want to be optimistic. I want to have hope. I will still watch every game. But a part of me has accepted to expect the same ole.

Tony DeAngelo cleared waivers
- homiedclown


Heā€™s got almost a $5mil cap hit
Has been horrible defensively
And has attitude issues

How many teams wanna make Cap Room for a guy like that?
Seems like the answer is ZERO

Yup Iā€™ve mentioned this many times

We need a torts like coach to whip them into shape.

Heck I would take Babcock even though he has a bad reputation

Gallant, I would have taken Ruff back. Would have liked to see what he could have done with this group.

I like the interviews,
but besides that itā€™s mostly nonsense

Same with Howard & Jeremy
Same with Schopp & The Bulldog

Just a bunch of ā€œblah, blah, blahā€ with some idiot takes from callers mixed in

Hard pass

Eichel LOVES Ralph
Itā€™s a huge reason heā€™s the coach again this season
And Hall came here specifically bc he wanted to play for Ralph again

If Ralph is fired,
gotta wonder how that affects the future of our 2 best players
