How long before Ralph steals his ambition.

Who knows.

Call me crazy but I’d try to keep Eichel, Reinhart, Hall, Cozens, and Skinner (purely out of necessity at this point as nobody is taking that contract).

Swap out the coach and fix the bottom 6 and I think we would be fine.

The d-corps concerns me though for next year.

I can see it now.

Try and lock down the lead starting in the second.

Roll out Eakin-Reider-Okposo

Watch them get caved in.

Post game coach says they need to learn how to mentally handle how to be in The lead.

You have no clue how much i hope it happens lol

Alain makes a goalie change. Ralph must be confused

I wouldn't be upset if Buffalo traded Eichel for a center and a winger or defenseman and a 1st. Of course they have to be very good players.

Tkachuk, Monahan and a 1st

LOL


Rob Ray says its a good coaching move. Someone needs to tell Ralph that.

Heres one they will look defeated all period. Its classic for them at this point. Other coach makes a change and ralph looks confused

I think you're crazy. D and goaltending are huge problems, and the top 6 has been the biggest problem.

Top 6 isnt the biggest problem. Coaching and goaltending is the problem

Hutton in net for flyers? Lol

Jesus Christ!
Another dirty area goal...by the Future Captain Sam fvcking Reinhart!

Where the hell is Mr. PP Specialist?
Should be nailed to the bench sitting behind the backup goalie

Uncle bourbon reporting to duty.

4 even strength assists in 7 games ? 🤔

God he's terrible 5 x 5

Who are these guys? Its almost like Eichel is a bad influence on them.

🤮-ie boy lives to see another day?

Olofsson should not be in the top 6.

Eichel has clearly had different ailments bothering him all year.

Hall is the probably the most unluckiest player in the NHL this year in regards to goals below expected.

Cozens and Skinner should have never left the top 6.

Reinhart is having his best year yet.

Lack of production form the top 6 is easily their top problem. How much you want to blame coaching for that is up to you, but they simply haven't produced.

Nah, coaching. The system is in place and the players are playing Ralph's system and this is the result.

If you watch closely you can see these things but you have to know Ralph's system to see it and not just at the stats at the end of the night.

You don't even ask yourself why everyone has regressed you just look at the stat sheet.

Upgrade goalie first & see what that looks like
I would like to still do that ASAP

Then in the offseason:
replace Ralph & upgrade anywhere possible

Plenty of opportunities, even if you don't watch closely. Their production is unacceptable.

Because of the system. Its all low probability chances thanks to Ralph's system.

You just admitted the top 6 is not the problem because they are getting lots of chances.

Its just not going in for them.

Coaching and goalie is a disaster.

Clearly the Sabres miss eichel, right?

Do they play a bit looooooser without captain curly?

Do they play harder, without eichel?

Too small of a sample size IMO 🤔

That's the biggest difference from last year, for sure.

I just don't want to see this same core under yet another coach.

There we go...Time for the collapse.

For a 6’5” goalie he does not have a big presence in net

There we go...Time for the collapse.
