They dominated the Habs tonight too despite not having all of their stuff.

Frustrating loss but continue to play like that for 76 games and you’ll be right there.

They had more chances, Montreal more than made up for it in quality. Montreal had a slight esge in XG. Pretty even overall.

DOMINATED.

dom in his prime would not make this a playoff team

A team with 3 goalies probably doesn't have one real NHL goalie. When we needed him most, the real Comrie showed up in the 3rd. Our 3 goalies are:
1. a 21 year old that the GM thinks can do something that no other 21 year old has ever done before. btw, the NHL has been around for a long time.
2. A goalie with an average to slightly above average AHL track record.
3. A goalie with a bad AHL track record.

We get #3 in Ottawa tomorrow - lucky us.........

Majority of which came in the last 8 minutes of the game which would have been a moot point if they were down 4-1

Obviously tonight Jake Allen was a big reason they lost but they still have the same holes in their game as last year

As far as I'm concerned they punted this season away the minute they resigned okposo girgensons and didn't do whatever it took to get rid of olofsson. This was a summer to try and push someone down the depth chart and adams failed gloriously

They need a real top 6 winger for cozens whos name isn't pat kane

The two dmen they signed have the lowest expected goals whatever fancy bullpoop they just aren't what we needed

They lack the ability to get dirty and grind a goal out entirely. The type of goal that sent us to OT against Tampa we do not possess

Remember having dahlin games? Where has his ability to take over been

The power play is disjointed

Im sure there's more. If they keep the effort up wins will come but this is not a team challenging for top 3 in the division and at this rate will be lucky to have a run at a wildcard spot

Jake Allen was good

But we are witnessing the same team without the top guys all having career years

Who would have thought

Kevyn Adams was banking on it

Losing to montreal at home when Montreal played last night is disgraceful even if they dominated most of the game. The real Comrie came back on those last 2 goals and Power as brutal in the 3rd

Not sure if you watched the game, but sure looked like a Montreal home game.

Wonder if Boss sold his tickets.

You're blaming Comrie for a tic-tac-toe power play goal? Wow, tough crowd.

The Sabres are now pulling a Bills without any history of actually being good.

The offense looks timid and afraid to shoot cause “balance”

Whats even worse is they couldn't have gotten luckier with Benson being nhl ready

This was the most disappointing offseason since Drury and briere absolutely no room for argument on it

Benson back in for Olofsson and remind Tuch that the preseason ended two weeks ago.

Tage’s scoring regression should bounce back to the mean as long as that line continues to generate the chances they have been the last 8 periods.

Other then that, wake me up in December

Game 7 and the goalie carousel is on. UPL in tomorrow

Clown show

True - the tuchs of the world are on pace for 0 goals this year. In saying that, we had all the momentum and that was just a fkn lazy careless garbage goal Comrie gave up on the gwg. 3rd goal was lazy too, 5 hole and didn't have his stick on the ice. We switch goalie's tonight, we win 7-1. can you argue with that?

Did the 3rd goal even go 5 hole...?

December, trade deadline, offseason, next season start, next December, next trade deadline...

You'll never wake up, with all that waiting for nothing.

You should be on an NFL roster with all the punting you do.

If you specifically mean 21. Roy was 20 when he won the Cup posting a 15-5 record .923 1.93 and 1 SO in the playoffs

Adams still sucks though

Where are you getting this from? Sabres didn't have 4 expected goals the entire game.

XG's were 2.7 to 2.2 after 2.

He never wrong this way though.

I just remember when we were being so unreasonable after the deadline. Then after June. Then after July. Then after game 1. Now after game 6

Nope, I will always treat the NHL season by 10 game sample sizes.

It avoids the emotional roller coaster everyone on here goes on endlessly.

Hence waking me up in December. Don’t need to waste anymore energy watching middle aged men say the world is ending, to planning the parade, to going back towards the world ending.

Bills will go on a 6 game heater now since you’ve all be ovulating the last two weeks

The team still sucks but the nachos are much improved

BTW it was an embarrassing showing for Sabres fans tonight; habs fans overran the place. The Pegulas have destroyed this franchise

See you in 4 games

Eggs might be overcooked by that time

Changing the 3rd pair out didn't totally flip the complexion of the team?
