or he is butt hurt because another 2nd overall player drafted was outshining him this season

Did Rhino not put the comfy seat on the tandem bike for Jack

if that was the main problem, pretty sure they would have played more loose in recent games, which they did not

NHL scouting terrible for us. Should have identified Staal was washed, Hall not the same player since the injuries and soft on his skates.
I’m sure we would all trade Miller, Eakin, Sheahan, Irwin, for
Rodriguez, Larry, Bogo, Vesey, ect right about now

He's alienated his players on the ice. He's destroyed any semblance of the word "fun", by the way he wants the team to play.

what I have heard, when the team wins, he's a good team mate


like the 2 winning streaks


when the team is in the dumps, he leads like Joffrey Baratheon

How is that on Eichel? None of the players remotely celebrate goals or anything even close.

It’s on the entire team.

Go watch behind the B on YouTube. The Bruins players are excited to score and play.

Please do not tell me we're on the Blame Jack Eichel phase of the season.

Christ please don't do this.
- TheSabresTaco

yup its all eichel's fault that they havent won.
id think theyd be crazy to trade him, trading him should be way down the list of choices for this team to make.

NHL scouting? The Sabres don’t even have scouts on payroll lol

tampa was the best
- homiedclown

Yes, I forgot that one. The Boston OT goal was still one of the most dominant NHL moments in Sabres history

his body language

getting an opinion outside the organization

I think he has checked out
- homiedclown

The NHL Players Association pushes guys to get second opinions. It's in the CBA for a reason.

I wouldn't think too much about that

But it is a pinched nerve/neck issue

Scouting does not equal scouts on payroll. It equals people who understand the game in payroll

Believe me, I don't buy into any of the Eichel attitude bullpoop.

Correlating it with losses, being an awful captain.

How the (frank) would you feel if you had to captain this cow pie without any leadership around you.

Stop blaming the best (frank)ing player on our team. Don't (frank)ing do this. This is how you end up sucking for eternity.

So Eichel leads like Jordan or Kobe essentially without the championships

I just watched the Bills Growth Mindset video they released yesterday

It's funny McDermott talks about having fun playing football, you make a good play you celebrate and enjoy it in your own way.

Where is that on the Sabres????

There's literally nothing profound about seeking a second opinion on an injury.

I agree with you. I don’t think this was a distrust issue, maybe the timeline he got in the first opinion said he’d miss the rest of the season and he wanted a second opinion

Oh it would suck. Our goalies are Hutton and Johansson. Both aren’t nhl goalies or even close to it.

I would be mad

Post Ralph Krueger morning presser, hearing the Eichel timeline is expected around 8 weeks currently on what is a lower cervical spine (neck area) injury. Video might help support that.

I assume you guys are all on the Dylan Larkin trade train because he's a sore captain who can't win

Yup and I’ve been watching behind the B. The Bruins behind the scene show. All of them are having fun, celebrate goalies, and etc.

I would love cameras behind the scenes with the Sabres

- TheSabresTaco

I think Larkin is a good 2C in the nhl on a good team.

Reading between the lines, it sounds like they're setting it up to be season ending but they don't know yet. I asked him point-blank if it was, and he talked around it & didn't answer. Later admitted it could be "shorter, to what you already mentioned" but said he hopes shorter.

Might have to go to Europe like Manning did.
Very similar injury if reports are correct
