Mike in Horseheads Posted November 4, 2023 Share Posted November 4, 2023 Owen Power was a stellar -5 performance last night. Being on the ice for every goal against is not good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Being on the ice for every goal against is not good. Power has not looked good in the last few games. He's given up the puck, passing is sloppy and Wednesday proved is actually slower than I thought.

Fleezoid Posted November 5, 2023 Share Posted November 5, 2023 Sabres look a lot better tonite. It took them until about 6 mins left in the first, but I like the end of that period and most of the 2nd. The short handed goal seemed to have gotten them on track. Passing is much better. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillsPride12 Posted November 5, 2023 Share Posted November 5, 2023 I'm happy they won and they played a good game but it's still frustrating to me at this point they are still only playing .500 hockey....and they have the same problem the Bills offense has this year in that when they are off, they aren't just a little bit off but flat out terrible and uncompetitive.

They are a tremendously talented roster. But as a team, they have inexplicable ups/downs. I attribute the swings to coaching. Granato sets the tone, or at least he should be. I know people like him, but he's merely an average coach. I forgive Pegula for hiring him--quality coaches weren't beating down his door. Fast-forward a couple years to today: is there a way to bring in someone better than Granato? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been happy with Granato overall since he's been here but this is the first time I am starting to question if maybe he isn't the guy. I just can't believe how inconsistent and flat they have looked at times this year. This team should be beyond those type of games at this point. There's still a long season to go so hopefully they get it going sooner than later. Don't think Pegula is cutting ties with Granato anytime soon so we gotta hope he is still the right guy for the job 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillsFan4 Posted November 7, 2023 Share Posted November 7, 2023 (edited) I am not feeling overly optimistic about getting a win tonight. The Sabres haven’t won an away game against Carolina since 2016! https://mcubed.net/nhl/buf/car.shtml This is one of those teams that gives the Sabres fits. edit - they lost in OT. At least they got a point. Edited November 8, 2023 by BillsFan4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bray Wyatt Posted November 8, 2023 Share Posted November 8, 2023 I thought overall was a solid game around. Still not sure why UPL didn't cover the puck in overtime there, looked like he had a chance. But nice to get a point on the road against a good team 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eball Posted November 8, 2023 Share Posted November 8, 2023 I was at the game…it wasn’t like days of old with tons of Sabres fans. The Canes have a solid following now. Good action and a solid point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SinceThe70s Posted November 13, 2023 Share Posted November 13, 2023 As an Islander/Bills fan I've always paid attention to Islanders/Sabres connections. Just saw that Pierre Turgeon will be inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame on Monday. Congrats to him - had a few big years for the Isles. A number of other good players have played for both: Gillies, LaFontaine, Peca, Hogue, Krupp, Okposo, Vanek and of course Satan! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Isles suck. If it weren't for Sorokin and Varlamov this would be a bottom feeder. They can't score. The coach has no system in place. They can't defend well as evidenced by their 3rd period collapses which are happening regularly now. Since the Isles won't make the playoffs this year I will be rooting for the Sabres to get in and go on a playoff run. Thanks a lot Lou. Nice team you built.

He and Tuch will need to pick up the slack left by Tage's absence. It would be nice to get anything out of 4th line. Krebs, Jost, Girgs, and Okposo getting outproduced by most of our defenseman. https://www.espn.com/nhl/team/stats/_/name/buf/buffalo-sabres 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillsFan4 Posted November 23, 2023 Share Posted November 23, 2023 Holy moly, what an amazing first goal for Benson! When I played hockey that was always my favorite move to try on a breakaway. It usually worked better in roller hockey than ice hockey though. lol 2 2 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
