Les Sabres trouvent un moyen de perdre une avance de 4-0 contre l’Avalanche du Colorado dans l’une des pires défaites de l’histoire de la franchise. Les Sabres avaient l’air fragiles, paniqués et ressemblaient à une équipe qui avait besoin d’un remaniement. Sneaky Joe parle de l’avenir des Sabres, qu’il s’agisse du statut professionnel de Kevyn Adams, du bonheur de Rasmus Dahlin ou de la liste bloquée pendant des années.

AVS fan,& yes our goaltending is insanely inconsistent,& is why our record doesn't match our analytics-expected goals,etc-our record should be better.But the actual main reason we are barely above .500 is because for whatever reason we have basically been the most injured team on earth for like 4 of the past 5 seasons. Basically since just before the COVID break. I haven't seen the exact stat but no doubt we have to be top 2 or 3 in missed man games in the 2020s-I know no contender has had worse injury luck than us for whatever reason(s).This season is a perfect example. We were missing 9 of basically our top 11 forwards for a few weeks.Counting Landeskog,& Nichuskin when he was suspended. So just when we get everybody back-except Landeskog,& Colton-within 3 games Manson,& Wood are out for months,Drouin is out for weeks,& 2 other lesser regulars are out for some period of time!
But while I was thrilled last night as we desperately need points-I did feel bad for you guys. Not just a terrible way to blow 2 points but to not even get 1 point was just awful. Obviously I was fine with how it went down…I really only care if we get 2 pts. But since you are in the East-I pull for you guys,& want to see you end this awful playoff drought. I will always have a soft spot for Byrum,& pull for you guys when you aren't playing us. When that game was 4-3,& 4-4…I was hoping it's go to OT,& we would win 3 on 3,or in the shootout. So both teams would at least get something. I'm sure not saying I was upset when we took the lead but if the hockey gods listened to me(& God knows they don't care what I think based off our insane injuries the last 5 yrs or so-lol)-Avs would've won in OT in a perfect world. And I understand you guys thinking "here we go again." But I still think you guys are good enough to sneak in the playoffs this year. As long as the team doesn't start thinking that-last night you could surely see the panic in the moment. But I hope you guys snap out of this,& get back on track. Hopefully starting tomorrow,& help us out at the same time by beating WPG.
So I totally get what you are saying-our goaltending has not been good enough this regular season or last. But after game 1 vs WPG last yr-Giorgiev was good enough in the playoffs. But for the 2nd straight playoffs-Nichuskin-arguably our most versatile,& most irreplaceable player gets suspended.Obviously he's not our best,2nd best or probably 3rd best player but no coincidence our record the last few yrs without Nichuskin is a little bit over .500…but we have the best record in the NHL with him. And this is a huge sample size-the last 4 or 5 yrs.
I noticed during the timeout Lindy called after it turned 4-3 that nearly every child on that bench had the 1000-yard stare. McLeod, Benson, Zucker, Clifton, Tuch and Mal were the only ones I saw with fight still in them. Where the fuck is Dahlin? I was vocal about Dahlin not deserving the C before he even got it. A Swede-led NHL team has only won the Stanley Cup twice in NHL history, Lidstrom and Landeskog. Swedes don't have that North American gritty nasty win -by-any-means-necessary attitude. None of the "top players" on our roster have the internal drive to fight and keep fighting even when the odds are against them. Some people just don't have that dawg in them and Tage, Peterka, Dahlin, Power, Cozens, Quinn, absolutely do not have it. They are just support pieces for actual men who can get the job done. I am 100% open to getting rid of these guys even if it means setting us back, they can't show up for themselves they will never be able to show up for each other.
Can we please just have a center that can help the d? Please for the love of God have a defense clue!
All Kevyn Adams has to do is talk on the phone for a living and keeps getting worked….General manager is not his calling!
People have to stop using immature and the it’s a young team excuse
They need to get rid of adams and get some talented veterans on the roster
That was the feather that broke the camels back for me
Fire adams have scary terry sell the team best thing he would ever do for this team
Abe kubel cozens Quinn Lafferty samuelsson Bryson all useless bums get rid of them
Avs fan here. V thankful for Wedgie bc the other two goalies have been ridiculously terrible.
too many UPL rebounds for one..
I fucking love Lindy. All you young bucks knowing everything knows nothing. This is a ownership problem. If Adams gets fired right now you think any NHL team will grab him for GM? Wtf happened to Donny? Bruins coach was unemployed for 2 hrs ffs. Woody will make a comeback under good leadership. SJ? Terry sucks people and that is it. Watch the movie Slap Stick and figure it out. So pissed right now I’m sorry
Terrible drafting and over valuing prospects has killed this team. The internet and the experts kept telling them how talented the young players are the games keep showing us all those young players are mostly busts or short career guys. JJ is the only one with a shot at a 10 year career.
Adams only defense is that the organization was 1000X worse/more dysfunctional than any pro franchise in history, when he took over. Regardless, serious changes are needed/were needed 18 months ago. Get it done.
Bloosky is for complete utter losers.
Dibiase, call a spade a spade. Pegula is the only common denominator in our playoff drought. Sell the team to an owner who wants a team to win
Trade Dahlin
Team is soft. They think they can just show up. That's the whole issue.
It's always the same, pegula does nothing, players get the bag and the fans get absolutely shafted
This team is beyond an embarrassment!!
So many underachievers. Power Dahlin Byrum Clifton Cozens Quinn Samuelson etc. etc. Lindy Ruff is not the answer either.
Unbelievable how fragile everyone is. What a ridiculous clickbait title for everyone to go insane together.
