Buffalo Sabres have lost 10 in a row.

[McFlash97]

How many top 10 picks have the Sabers had in the last 13 seasons ? How in the world have they not qualified for the playoffs at least once? Oilers fans were on suicide watch after 10. Such a futile Stat. Might as well make it 14 seasons at this point. Organization should be embarrassed and be thankful the Sabres have great fans. Embarrassing.

Sabres need to nuke the front office I think. They got pieces that look good on paper.

Adams is a punk with no hairs.

I think there's rift in a room.

Remember after the McEichel draft their fans claimed they "We're years ahead of Toronto in their rebuild and Babcock made a mistake when he chose the Leafs over the Sabres"

So they WHO Said this was wrong clearly. Leafs is a good team . Hope they winn it all this season

You don’t have to believe me on the how or why I know this but I promise you there’s not.

10 game losing streak is not correct. 10 game winless streak is correct. They're only on a 3 game losing streak.

Only 3 game thats more then enough

Oh good another Buffalo sucks thread. I am certain this one will be different from the other 4 or 5 Buffalo sucks threads. We just doing a new one of these for every loss now or?

Welcome to the plight of the Yzerman era Red Wings.

Leaf fans dunking on Sabres fans, when the Leafs turn into the Sabres every April certainly is a choice. Not one I'd make but hey

These are the players the Sabres have drafted in round 1 since they last made the playoffs:

2012 - Grigorenko (12), Girgensons (14)
2013 - Ristolainen (8), Zadorov (16)
2014 - Reinhart (2)
2015 - Eichel (2)
2016 - Nylander (8)
2017 - Mittlestadt (8)
2018 - Dahlin (1)
2019 - Cozens (7), Johnson (31)
2020 - Quinn (8)
2021 - Power (1), Rosen (14)
2022 - Savoie (9), Ostlund (14), Kulich (28)
2023 - Benson (13)
2024 - Helenius (14)

I see a 1C, 1W, 1D, and a good 2nd pair D among others. That is on paper a good core to build a team around. For whatever reason the team just cant.

Adams reminds me of other amazing GMs with tons of success like Shero and Dubas. If given the choice, he picks the player with the most points.

Buffalo needs someone who will commit to building a team. I don’t know why it seems like they always attract the worst GMs and the worst coaches.

10 game losing streak is not correct. 10 game winless streak is correct. They're only on a 3 game losing streak.

The man, the myth, the legend is back!

This argument led to some epic threads 3/4 years back

You think the suck is your ally, but you merely adopted the suck. Sabres were born in it, molded by it. They haven't seen a winning season since Lane Hutson was in kindergarten.

Lane was shitting in his Huggies while Hasek was making highlight reel saves

 

[5 Minute Major]

Honestly?

As a Sabres fan for the past 5 decades I really don’t give a shit what they do. This isn’t fun and hasn’t been for quite some time.

 

[BB79]

Their dump arena’s lease is up in 2027, which is right when the Alpharetta, GA rink is due to be finished.

Cool, that way Georgia can lose an NHL team for a 3rd time a decade later.

 

[NYRfan85]

At least the New York Jets are still around to keep Buffalo in 2nd for longest playoff drought among the Big 4... And they have the Bills, so there's that.

 

[Golden_Jet]

3 points in last 10 games, is not the best.

This. Maybe Saskatoon will finally get their own team when Atlanta bombs out again.

I believe Sabres needs to nuke everything, a true cultural reset is needed. Get rid of Coaching Staff / Front Office / Players, and most importantly, bring in a outsider to be president of hockey ops and stop having the owner meddling in hockey business. (Easier said then done obviously).

Every single year this organization goes threw a massive losing skid that completely derails their season. Buffalo surely has to have noticed every "star" player that they have had and struggles, get traded to a team with a proper foundation and flourishes.

Saskatoon Sasquatch vs Utah Yeti for the western conference final matchup

Don't even joke about that.

Once they purposely tanked for McDavid, they never recovered. Murray was tasked to dump everyone and anyone he could. Then, after he was fired in 2017, they brought in rookie GM Botterill, but at least he put in a decade with Pitt's front office. But, it didn't work out. But, why roll the dice on inexperienced Adams? He had like a year in management only at the time.

Seem like a collection of talent, but not a team.
