Sabres Goals: Victor Olofsson (6) (PPG)

Capitals Goals: Nicklas Backstrom (8) (PPG), Tom Wilson (6) (SHG), and Conor Sheary (4)

Minus ? | Broken

I seriously sat here for about two hours trying to think of interesting things to say about this game and I have nothing.

Same story on a different night. They can’t generate offense and when they do they can’t score. I’m out of answers at this point. It’s wild that in a sport like hockey that is full of bounces that the Sabres can’t get a puck to go in the net off a leg.

At least we can hold onto Will Borgen playing well again as a positive.

They’re in trouble in the standings now in the East Division and almost have to sweep the remaining four games of this stretch to have any hope of staying in the playoff race.

Dont follow NHL. But why do the Sabres such so much?

They had a few years ago like 10 1st rounders in the team and everybody said they will go on a run ... and nothing happens...

They have 16 first round picks on the team right now. 16 and they can't even score a fucking goal

They suck.   4 wins is the fewest in the NHL.

This has gone on for years.   What the hell is the problem?   Get a Coach and GM combo that works.

Hey...does Russ Brandon work for the Sabres?   He has the Midas touch.   If he is involved with the Sabres....get him out of there!!

They are going to see a lot of my Devils in the next week.

The Devils are pretty damn good 5 on 5 and they have a franchise goalie back there in MacKenzie Blackwood.

Blackwood has yet to lose in regulation and is a wall right now.

But, it is the regular season in the NHL, so who knows what happens.

They have a coach that knows how to coach Hockey Players, too, fuckers
