Not a coaching issue
Not a player issue for the most part, a lot of these guys are good players. Have fight.
It’s a roster construction issue where they are desperately needing 2 big pieces to round out the team. It’s sinking them.
Mittlestadt revealed as much after his trade last year. Apparently, it hasn't improved.I’ve never seen a team skate this slow on a back to back. Is our conditioning that frigging bad? We’re getting dog walked by the friggin islanders
Me after watching a single game of this teamIf Adams gets a sixth year I’m quitting the Sabres until he is gone.
I can no longer sanction this buffoonery
I guess. I meant that their core contributors are capable of breaking the drought. But they desperately need 2 additions in the spot we discuss all the time.It’s a player issue if it’s a roster construction issue.
I have a suggestion from an evil place regarding the next PP - put the entire Krebs line out to start it. Just them and a pair of defensemen. Go to the net, tell the point men to shoot it into the pile. Rinse. Repeat.
They need multiple better Top 6 players ... they need an entire 1st line IMO. Tage is good when he's on ... but he's not a real superstar or elite player. He's a low end 1C due to his inconsistency.I guess. I meant that their core contributors are capable of breaking the drought.

They do that all of the time at EV it doesn’t work lolI have a suggestion from an evil place regarding the next PP - put the entire Krebs line out to start it. Just them and a pair of defensemen. Go to the net, tell the point men to shoot it into the pile. Rinse. Repeat.
"There's half the game left to play", I Look at clock with 5 minutes in the 2nd -Rob RayRayzor sounds disgusted
I like itI have a suggestion from an evil place regarding the next PP - put the entire Krebs line out to start it. Just them and a pair of defensemen. Go to the net, tell the point men to shoot it into the pile. Rinse. Repeat.
I have enough of KA team building lessons.Not a coaching issue

It's been a problem all year ... they're inept offensively. This is a bottom 10 team and that be where they end up.Just can’t generate any decent chances, ugh
Adams overrated and was way too loyal to “his guys”. He wanted the kids that are in the top 6 to be there because he drafted 3 of them (Benson/Quinn/Peterka) and signed another to big extension (Cozens). He wasn’t looking to bounce any of them from those spots. Same thing on defense.I have enough of KA team building lessons.
He did either nothing, too late or unecessary surplus additions
I keep forgetting Quinn is even playing he's been a complete ghost this game.Adams overrated and was way too loyal to “his guys”.

I picked up on that too and chuckled. The Islanders make us look like small impotent pukes.Dunleavy “benson outmuscling Cizikis”
When in reality Cizikis was easily holding Benson back with 1 arm while he safely cleared the puck with the other.
I mean tbh this is more on the players not wanting to actually play this game more than the terrible PP scheme it's just lazy garbage this whole game.Beginning to think the pp isn’t fixed
