The chances the Sabres are getting are unbelievable. That islander goalie is unreal. That shot by Eichel on the power play I would have caught with my bare hand. This team needs some balls. Not resigning Simmonds was a mistake. He could have handed out some guts in the room.

Nah, Sam's tough. We're good.

No sh!t
Hutton blows
Someone here has been saying it for a while now

He’s not “alright”
We NEED a goalie upgrade- plain & simple
- jdfitz77

Hutton blows but I gotta say it. Hall blows more and use 8 mil to upgrade any position and let him go blow on another team.

It’s very obvious, isn’t it?
- jdfitz77

Sure is

Here is the hold out about Hutton.

Bet Boss never played organized hockey.

Even now when I play shinny I hope my team doesn't get the sheety goalie cause I know we will lose.

I was being sarcastic, you would think a guy with 69' in is username would understand satire?

I played this morning. #34 😀

10 UFA's on this roster and the trade deadline coming up. GL navigating that.

There's no way Eichel doesn't want out. Most of this city has turned on him. Once things re-open and he realizes he can't show his face in public it's a wrap.

I play with a group of guys and we have a defenseman who never tries and I hope he is not on my team when we throw the sticks in the middle.

When he is on my team I only try on offense because when the other team gets the puck they just skate around him.

So why bother playing defense I just play offense. Maybe its a sheety attitude and maybe I know that no matter how hard I try if that other guy doesn't try they will score anyways.

I stepped in because he was owning you. ☝️

You're welcome home slice
- Boss34

yeah that guy is 52 years old

olofsson is playing in his 82nd game today...and yes, he is very much a pp specialist at this point...

however, we may be forgetting that skunk couldn't do much in his rookie season until disco dan put him in front of the net on the pp where he was able to get tips and poke in a rebound or two and in his first three seasons pp goals and points contributed mightily to his overall numbers

Interesting comparing Olofsson to Reinhart in their respective first full seasons, when Olofsson was 24 and Reinhart was 19-20.

If Reinhart couldn't do much when he had a better even strength goal scoring and assist rate as a 19-20 year old compared to Olofsson when he was 24 and had several seasons of pro hockey under his belt, what word would you use for Olofsson last season and now this season?

If this doesn't get him fired nothing will

when they got hall, it was off the table


they made a few calls when ullmark's dad died

when ullmark came back, it was done


season is already over, any slim chance ended when ullmark got hurt last week


owners don't care



ship is sinking, band stopped playing and ralph still pulls the strings

- Buffalo--Sabres

i don't think "most of the city has turned on him"...a few on here have

I gave up watching. I take a 5 minute shower and the Sabres go from 1-0 to down 3-1.

I give up

Remember Lindy Ruff with Briere and Drury This team would be down 4-1 and some games you knew they would still win. They never gave up. I remember against the leafs we were down 4-1 and we won 5-4. I think Vanek got the winner that game.


Sure that team was high powered but Ruff never let his teams give up.

Here coaching and goaltending is a disaster.

I know a lot of people who are reluctant to be critical of our local teams and heroes but they can all see this guy loafing around. I can't name one friend or associate that has anything nice to say about him anymore.

none...i don't care...they're both passengers...so skunk was a better passenger than olofsson...it doesn't matter...

a passenger is a passenger whether he's on the eichel ferrari line, the eakin yugo line or the mini-van powerplay...

Here coaching and goaltending is a disaster.
- sabresfan69

keep going


a lot more then just that

Brings a tear to my eye. Ruff's teams never quit. Kreuger is a clown.

The comeback was Buffalo's ninth this season when trailing by two or more goals.

skunk didn't play with jack that year though

Even more impressive of those teams was, when they were up 4-1 and the game hit the final 60 seconds they actually sped up and tried harder for another goal. They were so engaged in what it meant to play your game well and carry momentum over. True professionals.

The worst part is I have watched Eichel when there is a bad goal he gives up.

Its not right and its going to cost the coach his job. We need a coach that will tear this team a new one when that happens.

Instead Kreuger is too worried about "line A, B, C and D" cause 1,2,3 and 4 hurts their feelings

Where is the leadership? Hockey is unique in that the captain plays an outsized role in whipping the guys into shape. Anyone care to rate jacks captaincy? Didn’t think so.
