Yeah, Jack Eichel is a loser.

 

Good take.

 

2015–16 record: 35–36–11
2016-17 Record: 33-37-12
2017–18 record‎: ‎25–45–12
2018-19 Record: 33-39-10
2019–20 record‎: ‎30–31–8

 

Not even a single season above .500, let alone a playoff appearance which most NHL teams can fall back-asswards into just out of luck. O'Reily went to the last place Blues mid-season and won a cup that year. McDavid and Matthews both have their teams in the playoffs since being drafted.

 

It isnt ALL on Jack, he's a talented hockey player, that's why I said "those losers" referring to anyone from the Sabres in general. But he isnt "the guy" like other superstars, and NFL QBs, need to be.

Boy, I'm glad you are telling is it's not all on Eichel. We would never have figured that one out.

This was a bit repetitive, should have been done in 10 mnutes, would have been better.

Should have been done without Duff and Glab.  Rather see what these two would talk about in an unscripted question type of session.

 

Doesnt help that most hockey players tone is akin to someone finding out their dog was just hit by a car.

Exactly, well articulated.

You dont know anything about hockey lol. The best skaters in the league are on the ice, at most, 33% of the time. Jack Eichel has hart trophy level impacts when he's on the ice. All metrics indicate that when hes off the ice, the sabres only have bottom-of-the-barrel level talent to offer. Today's nhl relies increasingly on depth performance in specific niches. The sabres forward and center depth have been abominable Jack's entire time here, save 3 years of having a good 2C. The sabres have also spent three years icing dreadful goalies for a significant amount of their games.

 

This is a league in which, before the salary cap, the second best forward ever took 5 years to sniff his first playoff game, and that was when every team had depth skaters not much better at hockey than you and I. In today's game,Johan Larsson can shut down Nikita Kucherov 99% of the time, and the importance of winning battles up and down the lineup is everything.
