Lets recap. Eichel get's injured and needs surgery. Sabres don't allow him to get the surgery. Sabres later remove his captaincy. Eichel then communicates he will stay if they let him get the surgery, they don't. He is traded. His first game back they boo him ??? Tf have Sabres fans been smoking?
People in the comments are so sensitive. Eichel is a pro athlete multi-millionaire. I'm sure he can take some boos without crying his eyes out back in the hotel room.
Disgusting, and you should be ashamed sabres fans. He doesn't get surgery so he's not healthy. He carried you guys so hard and he said he will stay if he gets his surgery. He gets traded and get his surgery so he's now healthy and then he's being booed like this? Absolutely disgusting.
Not a Sabres Fan here, not against the Sabres either. But I'd never do this to a player who left like he did. It's not like he badmouthed and grandstanded and talked shit. There was legit reason. Even legit reason on both sides…but to boo him? Not cool in my opinion.
So fans blame the player because of ownership and management being a bunch of degenerate old fucks? 🤣🤣🤣 Another reason for Buffalo being a cursed franchise
So: A) If a star player demands a trade from his team for any reason (e.g. unsuccessful contract negotiations, injury concerns, poor management relations), he gets booed. B) If a player is traded against his own will, such as Marc-Andre Fleury, he gets a standing ovation
honestly…this isn't bad. I've been to the Montreal Forum (le Forum de Montreal) in the past where the fans were very, very loud with the additional sounds of continuous and spiteful cussings along with being super vocal against the officials too. It was unreal, but it truly shows the hockey blood in their veins for the Habs fans. Any former Habs player usually got the boo-birds for the entire 60 minutes from start to finish, even after a Habs' win and the opposing team are heading back to the lockers.
They're booing him yet the issue was that the organization wouldn't respect his wishes. One side to blame here, and it's Buffalo's executives. He got the surgery he wanted and was back in 2 months. Embarrassing for them
These comments are acting like this is the first time in history a player has been boo'd returning to their old teams arena. If you request a trade 2 years into your 8 year extension then yeah sorry you're getting boo'd
They are acting petty like the New York Islanders fans whenever Tavares is in town, as if these guys (Eichel/Tavares) didn't give years of their lives for their franchises. Booing ex stars is a great way of not making people want to sign up for your team, imo. I hope for the Buffalo fans that Krebs and Tuch will work out, but i don't blame Eichel one bit for leaving for greener pastures. Having said that, i do hope that Vegas fails to make the playoffs, cause that would make me laugh and i'm a miserable git like that lol
Must be nice to be the pegulas. Start your career in gas and oil, get millions then buy the Bill's and Sabres and pretend to know what you're doing in sport's
I’m a huge St. Louis fan whenHull Shanahan & Pujols got traded I certainly didn’t hate or boo them when they returned that’s low life ~ Apppreciate greatness when it’s here & be happy if they can make more money or succeed elsewhere
These comments are a big L bruh. Eichel deserved all the boo's in the world. He's a locker room cancer, hence why the Golden Knights been dog shit since his debut for them. Watch that post game interview and tell me he don't deserve all the shit he got. Us Sabres fans have dealt with a shit franchise for 10+ years, if any fan base has the right to be fed up its us.
Anyone who thinks we booed him because the Sabres didn’t let him get the surgery is completely delusional. He’s been an entitled brat since playing at BU. Even teammates and staff who have known him throughout his whole time in buffalo have spoken out against him
Not only did he carry the Sabres, but the Sabres treated him like shit when it came to his surgery. Stripped him of his captaincy? Didn’t allow him to get the surgery he wanted? Finally, he gets traded to a team that will let him get the surgery and he’s kicking ass now. They’re booing him? Should be the other way around in my opinion.
Anyone blaming Sabres fan either didn’t watch a game past 2015 or any of his interviews. Look at his body language and the way he talks in his interviews he was a terrible leader that complained about everything and blamed everyone else.
Deserved it for wanting out before he got hurt and for acting like a spoiled brat and you can see clearly that the team didn't like him or want him here either, he is no leader, he is immature and we in Buffalo don't miss him or what him back, he can go poison Vegas like he is already. He got shown that we are a stronger team without him and he didn't like not getting the last laugh, but Buffalo did and the book is closed and Eichel will have nothing to show for it. We gave him lots of talent around him and what did he do with it? Made ROR want to leave cause he knew Jack should have never been Captain and he has more respect than to be treated like he did by management letting Golden Boy Jack run the show the whole time, we gave him Hall, Staal, Reinhart, Dahlin, Lehner, Skinner, Kane, etc. still couldn't lead this team, he is a me first player and it affected the whole locker room, they were never behind him and are glad he is gone. He deserved to have his choice of preferred surgery but he could have acted like a man about it and truly understood that the team had the final say per the CBA that the NHLPA agreed upon and been more respectful in the process, he lost the C cause he long lost the room with his frat boy antics. You want to see what a leader looks like, look at any loss this year, listen to Okposo, listen to Anderson, listen to Tuch, THOSE are real leaders, this team used to lose and hang their heads and keep them there with Eichel here, most likely cause he was a pissy little brat the whole time about it in the locker room, now he is gone, they lose and they come back next game and keep grinding and fighting back to get back in the win column, they don't give up anymore, he was toxic and never talked to anyone he didn't like in the locker room, he never galvanized the team to get better cause he never faced adversity in his whole life like this, sure management was messy but it seemed more like they catered to Eichel and what he wanted as coaches, GMs and teammates and he never produced the results necessary to have that power. And to Jack, we were never that loud or louder than the game against you in your career? Bullshit! Did you forget you first shift? Your first career goal? Your OT winners? The 10 game win streak? I mean if you feel that way, fine, but you were here so what did you do to get the fans roaring like you wanted them to? No sir, you got taught a lesson, life lesson that any mature person would eat and mature and grow from BUT not you, never you, you will always be immature and cocky and toxic and soon you will drag Vegas down with you like you did Buffalo and the Vegas fans will turn on you too. Good luck barely attempting to make the playoffs and hanging on for dear life for that last spot cause you deserve it, Vegas doesn't, but you do. Good bye, good riddance and expect it to get EVEN LOUDER next time and every time, you ain't seen Buffalo really give you the business but if you want a taste look at any Boston game for Buffalo Bills and Sabres, new and old, and you will see how we treat the enemy, just Ask Tom Brady and the season of the Billdo 😂 you will get it worse and I hope your team sees you for what you are, a talented player with a piss poor attitude. See ya later chump 😂
This comment section is dumb as shit. He asked for a trade when he was captain and before he got injured. It doesn’t matter about the surgery and us sabres would agree with him. However he wanted to leave and was a terrible leader. He never took us to the playoffs and never did anything to make us want to cheer for him. He was just another guy that scored some goals but could never win us games. That’s it end of story
Players get booed all the time. And after hearing his post-game comments, he sounds like yet another entitled, spoiled athlete. Wish him luck in Vegas. Maybe not having to be a super star will be good for him. Maybe he'll stop acting like one off the ice….
jack now has more goals than the 2 traded for him and hes coming off a horrific injury. yet buffalo fans said he is garbage. well how do you feel now ? ha ha
You can’t even blame him for his attitude. Wasting the time of an elite player by not contending. You see what he did in Vegas. There isn’t a problem at all with his attitude

Sabres fans just rocketed straight to the top of the “shitty fanbase” list. Congrats, guys.
What a joke of a deadbeat fanbase, enjoy losing
Deserved.
Lets recap. Eichel get's injured and needs surgery. Sabres don't allow him to get the surgery. Sabres later remove his captaincy. Eichel then communicates he will stay if they let him get the surgery, they don't. He is traded. His first game back they boo him ??? Tf have Sabres fans been smoking?

Fans in buffalo looking to convince no one to ever sign there again, what a shitty organization in a shitty city.
So fans blame the player because of ownership and management being a bunch of degenerate old fucks? 🤣🤣🤣 Another reason for Buffalo being a cursed franchise
So:
A) If a star player demands a trade from his team for any reason (e.g. unsuccessful contract negotiations, injury concerns, poor management relations), he gets booed.
B) If a player is traded against his own will, such as Marc-Andre Fleury, he gets a standing ovation
HES A CRY BABY
Sabres fans are clowns for this the org did Jack dirty not the other way around embarrassing lol
Eichel deserved it
What boos??? The Sabres have no fans 🤣🤣🤣

people in these comments are fucking retarded.
Islanders still boo Tavares
They are acting petty like the New York Islanders fans whenever Tavares is in town, as if these guys (Eichel/Tavares) didn't give years of their lives for their franchises.

he lost👍😂
19-32-8? I'd keep my mouth shut
Like anyone cares abt buffalo anyway
Boo the sabres for that shitshow of epic proportions.
Must be nice to be the pegulas. Start your career in gas and oil, get millions then buy the Bill's and Sabres and pretend to know what you're doing in sport's
I’m a huge St. Louis fan whenHull Shanahan & Pujols got traded I certainly didn’t hate or boo them when they returned that’s low life ~ Apppreciate greatness when it’s here & be happy if they can make more money or succeed elsewhere
Getting boo'd by sabers fans is the best compliment in this league lol
Sports fans ….smh
Sabres have fans?
These comments are a big L bruh. Eichel deserved all the boo's in the world. He's a locker room cancer, hence why the Golden Knights been dog shit since his debut for them. Watch that post game interview and tell me he don't deserve all the shit he got. Us Sabres fans have dealt with a shit franchise for 10+ years, if any fan base has the right to be fed up its us.

This game couldn't have gone any better, literally.
Not only did he carry the Sabres, but the Sabres treated him like shit when it came to his surgery. Stripped him of his captaincy? Didn’t allow him to get the surgery he wanted? Finally, he gets traded to a team that will let him get the surgery and he’s kicking ass now. They’re booing him? Should be the other way around in my opinion.
It reminds me of when Erat was traded to the Coyotes after requesting a trade.
Anyone blaming Sabres fan either didn’t watch a game past 2015 or any of his interviews. Look at his body language and the way he talks in his interviews he was a terrible leader that complained about everything and blamed everyone else.
So many misinformed people in these comments

Got booed the whole game. Trash fans .
jack now has more goals than the 2 traded for him and hes coming off a horrific injury. yet buffalo fans said he is garbage. well how do you feel now ? ha ha
Boy that cup looked nice in Eichel's hand didnt it? Buffalo sports are a tire fire. Bills sabres are a joke.
You can’t even blame him for his attitude. Wasting the time of an elite player by not contending. You see what he did in Vegas. There isn’t a problem at all with his attitude
