Sabres Have No Answers In Must Win Game – Postgame Thoughts

Okay hi again everybody this was not a fun evening as we know let’s take a look at this coming up I won’t break down everything there’s no point what we just seen it’s that game to me explains the whole season the way it just felt oh my God what a

Frustrating frustrating game to watch guys I didn’t get those videos done because I I did sit down I watched even Gran’s press conference tonight I watched everything I watched the post game I watched the the Capitals game how that ended I made sure to watch everything I soaked it all in because I

Wanted to know exactly what uh what we’re up against here I mean it’s uh when it comes to everything you know like I just want to get a feel for everything uh I want to show you something there is one clip I want to

Toss at you guys so let’s take a look at it it’s standings okay here we go and yes there’s a new kid in town who we’re chasing now folks it’s the Philadelphia Flyers so seven points out with seven games left is not promising we have them

Once um we could you know we can Bank on that to pull within five we have more regulation wins we only have to tie them but the good news is Philadelphia their last two games have lost to Montreal and Chicago so who knows right but then with there’s Detro Detroit then there’s the

Islanders who have fallen out of grace too and New Jersey What A Night to lose oh man what a night to lose like that I’m going to watch every press conference this time I am I want to see what the boys have to say about this this was am I going to about

It what’s the point what’s the point this has been going on all year you know it’s like that it’s like chasing a slot machine or staying with that girl that cheats on you all the time that’s what’s going on this year so this is um it feels like the end you know it

Feels like the end I mean we’re not mathematically out but it sure feels like the end now I I I cannot believe they got zero tonight zero and they made sense like look like a world class goalie and the truth is guys if you look at the

Shots we took on him okay yeah there was some high danger chances of course there were but how many times have we throw it right on his Crest you know Dylan cousins can’t buy a goal if his life depended on it I I mean

I I can go over a ton of things no I’m not going to about UPL I’m not blaming him for this we scored zero tonight zero his score is zero Devon Levi would have lost two so it doesn’t matter you know I cannot believe that the boys um are this ineffective this

Year offensively they’re just really bad offensively this year they’re inconsistent they they have a good game they have a bad game um it’s definitely a step backward season I mean that that’s been obvious since about the 40 game Mark you know they’ve been it’s a major

Step backwards this year and I hate to say this it’s normal this happens with young teams what’s not normal is a general manager not coming to the aid of the team and going after our needs at the deadline way more aggressively good trade though the middle stat trade was

An excellent trade but go after our needs more aggressively Gren um Adams and uh I think we needed a coaching change about 30 Games 40 40 games ago 50 games ago and we just keep persisting this illusion that it’s all going to work out and um I think Gran’s reached his limit with

This Bunch guys I just do I mean I might be dead wrong and next year they come out and they’re just awesome they had a great summer who knows you know and they come out in October next year and look amazing I don’t know but you you know guys I

Could feel something was wrong with this team back in pre-season back in preseason remember didn’t feel right did it can’t remember what our record was something like I I don’t remember how many games have we play six I can’t remember I think we’re like 2 three and one or something

Whatever it was it didn’t matter it it just it they didn’t feel right in preseason and it hasn’t felt right all year this team can’t win when this team last year would have won tonight and the truth is this team has not just they just haven’t become a team yet they’re too much

Individualists on this team and you need the right coach to take individualists and make them become one anyway I don’t want to make this a r video about firing Granado guys I don’t want to do the old hat thing with you again and no you know but it’s

Frustrating I’m hurt tonight really I mean that’s how I feel not even angry I’m just hurt I’m like come on like you know I’m watching this game I’m and I’m thinking halfway through it they might not score a goal tonight they just might not they might get shut out

Tonight on their home ice in a game like this which is really is a disgrace guys it really is you got the Toronto fans invading our building you know it’s like their second home ice when they come over and to lose like that and Skinner looks lost e he looks

Lost out there this guy’s been lost for quite a while I know he had the hatti but my God take that away and he’s been a mess for about 25 games now he’s literally pulled an Olson on us so I seen some of you talking about

Where buy out his contract no they won’t buy it out next year guys they just won’t it would be too much I’ll talk about that briefly okay oh I better plug this in because um I didn’t I didn’t I forgot to charge it again I was too distraught watching this

Game oh my God man got him miss the 7s I so missed that team okay um I’m going to go and buy out uh uh I’ll go and buy out his contract I’ll tell you what it would what it would uh close this these stupid ads now on cap

Friendly all right where are you Skinner let’s see what it would cost to buy him out okay I cannot uh I put this way I just don’t see it happening yeah if we bought out as contract next okay let’s see we buy it as contract at the end of the year here’s the

Problem the next uh next year $1.4 million cap hit not a big deal right but the next two years 4.4 and 6.4 cap hit and dead cap we don’t want to do that we want to wait a little longer we want to wait another year

Truth is I mean that’s part of the game in this day and age you know we want to wait another year before doing a buyout then it would be different and the truth is he’s producing enough you know to give us something it’s not like he I I know he’s

Not having the greatest year either but a lot of guys aren’t having the greatest year uh let me check his numbers right now oh my God tonight yeah of course this is happening even this is happening to me oh forget it screw it the hell with it cat

Friendly is useless as well tonight as the Sabers yeah uh whatever I mean look he’s you know Skinner’s getting older and I did say few years back if we get a few more 30 goal seasons and a few 25 goals Seasons we can live with it I think we

Can live with this contract for now it was a stupid contract right from the beginning and um I I I’m not going to worry about like this is why last year guys I got attacked on here everybody said no no no no like when we signed cousins to that contract you guys

Remember I was saying it’s overpay most people didn’t agree with me at all yeah it was overpaid cuz look at what we’re paying right now think about it okay right now do you want that for the next seven years that Dillan cousins I don’t think so

So it’s what happens in the whole thing that counts so if he becomes one of the guys on this that has his name engraved in the Stanley Cup everything’s forgiven we don’t care at that point you know I I I just cannot believe today that they got shut out

I’m like our offense is so crap this year and here’s where I’ll I’m going to do a knock on Granado here there’s one thing what did Granado not do that he should have tonight guys take a timeout he should have took a timeout he never utilizes his time his

Timeout properly he always waits to pull the goalie and calls a timeout no like sometimes you got to use a timeout to get the bench have a talk with them and say look at out of town all these teams are losing Boston won in Washington Detroit Detroit lost in Detroit and and

And and Washington picked up a point but the unexpected happened and Chicago goes in and blows out Philly in Philadelphia so but if Philly lose seven straight the Islanders continue losing and the sabes play 500 hockey and finish out by like six points when it’s all set it down

We’re going to be so frustrated you know it’s so frustrating right now it is it’s it’s it’s demoralizing it’s it’s part of being a fan not just of the sabes like the trolls would say no a sports fan this is you got to take the

Bad with the good and the good with the bad and you know and this is the bad we’re taking in right now really sucks it’s like anytime they give us a slightest hope they just yank it right back from us and that folks again is a 500 season this is what we’re

Living you know it’s that old saying that you know what what’s the insan definition of insanity doing the same thing over and over again expecting different results so that’s Don Granado you think he’d learn by now by his mistakes he’s got to change some strategy and maybe get a harder hitting

Team they dominated us physically in this game guys I want to bring that up they were out hitting us 11 to2 after 5 minutes no kidding they were going to get the first goal they came out put the body on us one nothing Toronto game

Over if that’s what we’re going to do if that’s our physical push back when our season’s on the line we’re not a playoff team they were so much better in that game physically than we were okay that’s something I better mention because I that was driving me nuts was yeah there

Was some physical play by the sabes but the stupid passing in our Zone guys when is Granado going to understand that getting it out of our zone is priority get it out of the zone and stop with so many dumpings like there’s a lot of things

Are doing wrong they’re doing like I the the plays they try they should be making in Toronto Zone they’re doing in our own Zone like it doesn’t make any sense way too many passes before getting a shot there’s so many things guys you’ve seen it it’s exhausting it’s exhausting it’s

Taxing emotionally to watch this because you’re just hoping as a fan that something’s going to happen and then nothing happens all night and now I got to I’m going to watch these interviews I want to see what they have to say I do I want to see what they have to

Say what are they going to say what are they going to say oh uh you know uh we just didn’t play well and uh like you know I didn’t see Granado losing it I would love to watch the Philly if I knew this was going to happen I would have watched the pH

Philly game just to get a look at torella because the fact that that team’s in a playoff position is amazing this year that guy should be the coach of the year if Philadelphia makes the playoffs John tarella should be coach of the year really I know it’s a run away

For tet don’t get me wrong I know but I I I would be I would say that’s the next guy in line then because that team is supposed to be like where Ottawa is not even they’re supposed to be even lower in Philadelphia look at them all year long

In a playoff position unbelievable what a job over there so I’m going to leave it there I’ve had enough I’ve had enough hockey talk I don’t even want to think about hockey tonight guys I’m doing this out of commitment and guys I’ll try to slap together emotionally a good day so I can

Throw some videos up because there’s no Sabers hockey tomorrow night I would like to maybe break down the maybe I’ll do a a board video tomorrow and we’ll break down the SE on inside the numbers and take a look at a few things that maybe even I I’m not looking

At you know I mean I’d like to know how many times has the other team in 75 games scored the first goal on us I’m going to have to go research this I don’t know a site that gives me these stats I have to go research it but how

Many times have we not scored the first goal of a hockey game I’m curious how many times have we let in the first goal in the first five minutes of a game I mean we weren’t ready tonight guys they were they come out out hit us 11 to2 we weren’t

Ready they right away put the body in us and bullied us right away and the only push back we had was what because we’re more talented offensively than them cuz we are I know we didn’t show it in this game but we are we have more gifted offensive machine overall than Toronto does

They’re pretty much one-dimensional with their big line you know when Taris gets the game winning goal guys what’s that tell you you know I mean really tavarus John tavarus he is like the curse of the NHL this guy’s never going to win a Stanley Cup anywhere I mean if the St I could

Imagine Toronto winning the Stanley Cup can you imagine bman asking John tarus to come get the cup I can’t if it happens I’ll be the first to admit I was wrong but I don’t see that happening oh anyway I’m going to leave it there this has been brutal to watch

I’m tired it exhausted me it made me not motivated to do anything watching a game like that just brought me down wow Hard game to watch guys as a fan but you know what we’re not shocked we’ve seen all year this team’s inconsistent this team has no heart

Night night in night out they have heart one night they don’t the next there’s no heart tonight and we can’t use the backto back excuse It’s the youngest team in the league if anything we should be the best team in the league backto back cuz we’re the youngest our legs recover

Quicker no there’s no excuse you know sadly there’s not so you know I um I want to look at a bright side I’ll tell you what the bright side was of this game guys it only had the last 60 Minutes that was the bright side of

Tonight all right I’m tired I’m done for the night I got a Florida glue tomorrow so I’m going to be busy and um I’ll try to be in at some point I know I’ve dragged out this video God knows how long cuz I’m I’m in a frenzy emotionally right now I I I’m

Like I’m all over the place right now with this this is uh this is I didn’t expect to see that happen a shut out you know but hey you know we we’re as good as our record I’ll always say that you’re as good as your record our record is pretty accurate we’re a

500 team that’s about it guys I’ll see you tomorrow have a great night and uh be patient I’ll uh put a DAT together tomorrow I’ll be in a better frame of mind then see you then he

Tonight sucks for sure in so many ways..the Sabres played a pretty much heartless game in this one with the season on the line..thanks for watching and see you tomorrow 🦬
