GDT: Toilet Bowl 2024: Habs & Hab-nots [7pm I think but IDRC]

[ValJamesDuex]

We are all at the same place.

 

[oldgoalie]

80% + Leafs fans expected Friday as Sabres fans are selling their tickets to pay for Christmas. FUN

All Laffs fans and no palm trees. What a shame.

 

[Buff15Sabres]

THIS is rock bottom. It does not and cannot get any worse than this! This is Krueger bad.

We are all at the same place.

Well all of us except one really important guy.

 

[beerme1]

AHHHHHHHHHHH, AHHHHHHHHHH

 

[DapperCam]

The Canadiens are one of the worst teams in the league. I’m really wondering when we will win another game. I guess Dahlin is coming back. Maybe he can stop the bleeding.

 

[HaNotsri]

On the old comedy show coupling there's an episode called the unflushable. It's about floating turd that can't be flushed and how some people are hard to get rid of.
Plenty of unflushables among the Sabres.

 

[MagnumForce2]

Only 3 more games until we play Chicago in another pivotal contest.

 

[HaNotsri]

Buffalo could have traded for Laine. He was cheap. Often injured but only 26. Now 4 goals in 7 games.

Vegas Vic has seven in eleven

 

[Dirty Dog]

Hahahaha

It’s destiny and you know it

 

[Hashbrown77]

Hiring Lindy Ruff wasnt a mistake......he was probably the only one willing to take the dead end job to begin with. The mistake was thinking the SOFTEST players in the league could play Ruffs system. OR they knew that from the beginning, which is why they didnt let LR hire his own staff, and he was just a member-berry hire who is gonna end up as the next zero experience GM. Until there is a team President/hockey ops guy (not named Pegula) nothings gonna change.

Good, who would give a shit about this loser team anyway.

Having tickets in the first place is the mistake #1.

Top pp and jack eichel

I don’t understand how Montreal, a team in a rebuild…with higher taxes and the same number of palm trees…got Laine.

My understanding is that every player in the world can block a trade and there is simply nothing that Adams could have done to add to the top six.

Am I to only just now discover this wasn’t true?

….

But…if Adams is wrong about that…what if he’s wrong about other things?

…

Guys…I’m getting worried that Kevyn Adams may not be the answer.

 

[Deep Blue Metallic]

Nice shot by Cozens.

 

[HaNotsri]

maybe Granato was not a bad coach after all.....at least they were entertaining

Granato overperformed most if not all of his seasons as a Sabres coach. Great guy.

Plus the #1 prospect is a Left Hand Defenseman

I'd say lhd is a need a long with everything else at this point.

 

[Fjordy]

LMAO, thank you Terry for an inspiring speech.

 

[Deep Blue Metallic]

LMAO, thank you Terry for an inspiring speech.

I thought Terry was wrong to interfere, but can't fault him too much for believing a reassuring message would help. It was an earnest mistake.

But it backfired in such spectacular fashion that it's hilarious in hindsight.

I saw that happening. Olofsson got run out of town here. Buffalo is a clown franchise.

He is still the same 1 dimensional player as he was here. He has to be properly utilized. Vegas is doing that. Sabres would not.

I mean we got 6 1 dimensional forwards who arent scoring so its really no different.

Listen. I complained about the utilization of Olofsson for the last couple seasons. It made no sense how they were using him especially if they were trying to trade him. It's just more the same for this team. They took a player that had value around the league and flushed it all down the toilet by forcing him to be something he is not. They are doing same shit with Cozens right now. They are a joke from top to bottom. They have zero understanding of how to assemble a roster, develop prospects, coach a power play, you name it. It's been bad, it will continue to be bad. Olofsson is far more 1 dimensional then any player they have rostered now. But good teams make players like him work for them not against themselves.

I beg to differ. Peterka is useless if he isn't scoring, he is invisible most of the game. Quinn isn't far behind.

Good thing our GM identified Samuelsson as a core player early in his build.

To be fair, Power is always on the bottom end of that graph. Always.
