1:03:54

The Sabres were at the center of hockey discourse after failing to step up and respond to the hit taken by Tage Thompson on Sunday. We discuss the lack of response from the Sabres and how the lack thereof has shaped the discourse in the following days. We also run through the trades that came down over the weekend, including the JT Miller deal between the Canucks and Rangers. Our discussion covers the movement ahead of the start of 4 Nations Face Off and the implications for the teams in the West (and the Sabres pursuit of Elias Pettersson).…

Yet another horrible loss from the Sabres led to damning comments from Lindy Ruff.

för 9 weeks sedan1:03:15

1:03:15

Rumors are swirling around Vancouver as the reported animosity between JT Miller and Elias Pettersson won't go away. As the Canucks are said to be listening on both, many are wondering whether or not the Sabres can, or should make a play for the former 100-point scorer. We break down Pettersson's credentials, what sort of package the Sabres would need to fork over and where he would fit if the Sabres were to pull the trigger. The second half of the show is devoted to a bit of a midseason check in.

Terry Pegula trekked to Montreal for a meeting with the Sabres on Monday. The takeaway from the meeting was that Pegula believes in the group and the team trusts that the solution to their struggles is in the room. They responded to that meeting with a 6-1 drubbing at the hands of the Montreal Canadiens. We discuss what the fallout of Monday's meeting could be, especially given the unbelievably flat and underwhelming response from the team in the wake of the highly publicized event. The answers for what ails the Sabres are thin despite the litany of issues they're faking.…

Kevyn Adams set Sabres Nation ablaze with his press conference replies on Friday and while we hoped the space between his press availability and our recording may be long enough to discuss something else about the local hockey club. But the Sabres lost two more games, carrying their skid to seven-straight and putting his comments into sharper focus. Thus, our conversation is centered around Adams performance at the podium on Friday. what his inaction and the team's performance may mean for his future, and how Terry Pegula's stewardship of the Sabres is the root cause of the team's issues.…

Buffalo's losing skid hit four games after a dreadful loss to the Colorado Avalanche, erasing the club's playoff advantage and leaving many questions about the current state of the team. We devote the first portion of this episode to breaking down the root causes of their issues, landing on roster construction as the primary issue with what could be another stalled season. We close the episode with a breakdown of the rosters for the 4 Nations Face-Off, specifically the US and Canadian rosters.
