The hawks are riding a 3 game losing streak and are coming in tonight fresh off a loss last night.

The Sabres need to have a strong start, something they haven’t done in the past 2 years.

Other than that, this game is a toss up, the Sabres should win. We get to see Bedard vs Benson tonight, let’s see the difference of 12 draft spots.

Taylor Hall loves playing the Sabres, does any Sabre score frequently against the Hawks?

I want to bet the over, with Hall and Peterka as any time scorers, I’m not going to pull the trigger quite yet.

That's why a loss tonight should open eyes. Hopefully tell Adams things need to change.

This season may end up being this organizations most patethic in their history. At least the tank year had some purpose behind it.

Adams let that 8 game losing streak run its course last year, he won’t make any adjustments off tonight’s game.

I’m surprised we haven’t had 56 press conferences yet this season…if anything were due for an update on what he is looking at and that he is having many conversations.

It's frustrating, really hard to understand what Adams is doing other than building a prospect pool full of Talented Midgets.

Time for Adams to take his next step in becoming a GM and go from rebuild to let's try and F@cking Win mode. Sabres have a plethora of talent throughout there Organization. Time to step forward and use the Wealth of assets to compete now. They have plenty for the future.

The blame so far this season is definitely on the GM at 70% and 30% goes on the coaching staff. Can't make chicken soup with chicken sh!t. KA overestimated on Levi and bent over for him. The kid maybe good but his size and the fact he goes down too fast may be his, no pun intended, downfall.
It's a weak and easy team to play against knowing they aren't only defensive nightmares, they wont scare anyone.
It can be fixed real easy. Look at the prospects and figure who's in and who's out. Stick with your decisions and the rest are traidables. Start now to build a roster that has leadership, not buddies to make you feel better, then this coming summer grow some balls and dip on to FA to fill holes.

Yes, he's injured now.

1 goal and 1 assist in 12 games is pathetic.

- kingcong39

that's one more goal than okposo and krebs combined

we now have to leap over 7 teams just to grab the 8th spot

with each passing loss it becomes more unrealistic to expect a playoff team let alone a playoff run

Well a loss tonight would have to open some eyes I would hope. I would hate to see that, but maybe a kick in the Nuts by Chicago would be the Best thing for this Organization.

The ‘hawks are not a walkover win. Mrazek has been playing well for them.
Better cover that Bedard kid, he’s pretty good

There's still time, they are getting so help with nobody really pulling away yet. But that isn't gonna last forever if they can't straighten stuff out.

Idk what you guys are worried about, Okposo should play 20 minutes tonight and everything should go fine.

RPO every snap for Allen, let him run at his discretion.

28-12 Bills, Murray and Allen to score.




It’ll probably be 11-10 Jets 😂

This group was saying all summer, look at Florida…all you have to do is get in.

Just look at how different the GM’s of Florida and Buffalo managed their rosters.

Florida did a lot….they traded their star
In Huberdeau for Tkachuk, Adams traded Eichel for Tuch and Krebs. Massive difference in value swapped, Buffalo and Calgary on the losing ends.

Bad trade deals, inability to support the core that was given to him by the previous GM.

It’s a bad comparison based on everything, why would the plan be to sneak into the playoffs in the last wild card spot? How was that something to look forward to?

- washedup20


Tkachuk wanted to only go to Florida. That was the NHL media reports at the time


So how do you lure a player here that won’t resign with your team?

Just what we needed. More players that don’t want to be here

This is the problem.

When you use girgensons and okpsos too much. If they just played normal 4th lines minutes. No one would be crying about them

I think more players don't want to be here now vs a few months ago

they should never see pp time


this team would be better off with 2 d men and 3 other forwards on the pp then throw those 2 out there and IMO this is why we need a RD with a little pop in his O game
