Really not sure why I decided to waste 3 hours of my Sunday watching this game.

Absolutely pathetic effort. Wasted my Sunday afternoon.

I genuinely feel bad for Luukkonen. 2 or 3 of those were his fault at most. This team just completely fails to play defense. on that last goal there were 3 guys in the slot who’s entire contribution was “blocking UPL’s vision”.
Granato needs to stop fucking with the lines, too.

Maybe the playoffs are a bad idea

Team is cooked. Greenway, though I hope I eat my words, seems to have been a mistake.
unsullied65
nothing will change for this franchise until they have a competent front office. until then, it will be the same exact bullshit every season
idc how many prospects or draft picks or players with “high potential” we have. there are still major issues with this team and the current GM has no plans to fix it. won’t be surprised if we clean house again in 2-3 years
don’t even get me started on the coaching staff. they never get held accountable and its a joke.

Well at least we’ll end the season with one more win than last year

I expected a loss but not a 7-0 loss. At least show some fight.
theNightblade
Was the first half of the season a mirage?
Is the young team just worn down?
Is the weight of expectation crushing the team as a whole?
Find out next time, on dragonball z

I have a feeling we won’t win anymore games
AnAngryAnimal
meaningful games in march, as always
beeeeepppp
I just wish the team would be honest with us. I know it sounds like excuses but knowing if Thompson and Dahlin are playing hurt would make all of this make sense.
Now for 2 more losses, then a run of like 8 wins in a row so they’re just a few points out of the wildcard

Team has quit…. again.
MoneybagsMcghee
We need a big off-season

We saw the Pens get 6-0’d and said “I’ll do you one better”
gthirst
I can’t believe I didn’t use the ticket trading program to trade out of this game for another one 🤡

So do they bother giving Levi a shot this year? Seems risky given the amount of goals they are giving up the last bit.

Get Greenway a one-way back to Minnesota.

My brain a week ago:
“We aren’t going to get Connor Bedard – just stop dreaming about it!”

End of the season has been a kick in the groin, I was ok if they didn’t make it but to just keep getting destroyed routinely is soul crushing
DarthPisces
So glad I turned this shit off when they went down 3-0. My expectations for the season have largely been accurate but I’ll be pretty salty if they end the season on a horrible skid.

Granato’s lineup and scratches are moronic. No Defense, you say? Sit Jost! Play Oloffson! Also, his fetish with Greenway who is terrible is downright creepy at this point. No way he should be on first line and PK. Olofsson should never play again. GMKA better have a lot of ideas to get a goalie as UPL ain’t it, and move on from Oloffson, Okposo, Bryson, Claque, and Jokiharu,. Based on what he did at TDL, I won’t hold my breath.

I’m just bleh with this team at this point. Win some games to close the season so we’ve got good momentum to our playoff push next year
WorthPlease
I’m not sure I’ve ever seen a bigger disparity in NHL hockey in my life than the Bruins versus the Sabres.
CasualMark
Are you listening to the postgame?? Everyone in the background is laughing and it’s hard to hear Donny. What the hell is going on?
BARDLER
All season the Sabres were fun to watch, high energy, and high effort.
Then these past 11 games have been brutal tank years quality bad outside maybe 2.5 games. Effort is gone, offensive power is gone, goaltending is bad, and there are literally zero positives in their game. Just nothing going on that makes these games even close to watchable.
It’s like a completely different team out there. It really sucks.

Glad I was working today

We went from having a +21 goal differential at one point to -8 now. Just crashing hard.
Kinger86
Man and I bought tickets to the game against Montreal and am even going to their road game in Detroit.
czupek
Pathetic. Just wrap this season, give guys from Rochester couple games to make sure they are not going to solve problems that this team have.
reddishgrape
Granato coddles these guys too much. They have never felt any pressure because the coach goes out of his way to make sure everyone is relaxed.
JCZ1821
I need it explained to me like I’m five why: -53/37/71 was even considered a line in the first place. Might be the 3 worst defensive forwards on the team. -Why Granato willingly put them out against the Bruins top line, which lead to the 4th goal

For good or bad this is proving that IF we want to hold onto Greenway he will be an off season project. Oloffson has proven his trade value with some recency which is good for off season dealing.
Need to try and gauge Johnson and determine what else is needed for defense. The bottom two of Boosh and Stillman has potential. I can equally see Joker being placed there in place of Stillman. Would leave the defense a bit more solid though really could use one more mid 6 defender.
Top 3 when going look solid. When they stall out get a bit too frustrated. Peterka is getting there but second line really needs another defensive presence. Middlestadt and Jost seemed to be gelling really well. Would see some very solid potential slotting Krebs in to help give them another scoring threat and a solid defensive position. IF Greenway has a good off-season would maybe see potential for him to take a spot there. As much as I have appreciated Okposo I think there’s enough of a backlog this makes sense to be his last season. Girgensons still has some value as a forechecker I could see him being a good compliment to Kulich. Then the last spot in the lineup can be a rotation for the young guys.

Granato doing his damnedest to make the trade not look like a mistake

We only lost by a touchdown. Coulda went either way. On to the next… season.

Get Clague out of this lineup!!!!!
