Sorry actions speak louder than words. You let your best player get smoked and the teammates don't do a damn thing. Soft soft team.
Blah, blah, blah. Time to call it a day, Lindy. And it is about damn ’bleepin’ time this entire organization wakes the ’bleep’ up & does something, anything right for the first time in 15 ’bleepin’ years, as well.
😁 👏👏 Lets Go Sabres 🏒 🥅
I'd take another losing streak over our guys tucking their tails between their legs when our best player gets rocked. Gutless
3 in a row is impressive but—I’m not gonna be singing their praises until we’re above .500 and a playoff spot—let’s f—kin’ go! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
If Rob Ray was on this current roster, this wouldn't have ended differently. Which guys wanted to go after him? All I saw was a bunch players skating around his corpse. I love the Sabres (and Ruff), but this is why they have less than 1% (0.6%) to make the playoffs.
I never thought my team would let that happen to their best player. SAD.
You played Glibert, knowing NJ was a tough team, but you didn't want to set him free to go after someone? This isn't the old Lindy I know. You are sending the wrong message to the NHL. No costs to pay for a cheep shot on your best player. Now you put a target on EVERY skills player on the team.
The last I checked, we’re a little bit off the radar of an 8th seeded playoff spot…less talkie Lindy! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Softest team in NHL
SOFT SOFT SOFT. NO EXCUSES.
I was at the game. Great 1st period Bflo. Meh 2nd, and then the 3rd….After the hit on Thompson with ZERO reaction on the ice, then the quick shortie, the air was sucked out of the building. Somehow they did not collapse and lose, but I'd take the loss if they had had a proper reaction to the Noesen hit. Does Bflo need the 2 points – not really. The team needs to be tough to play against and they are not. That 3rd was real embarrasing, and I felt like puking up my nasty popcorn.
Dahlin can fight his own teammates in practice but he can’t stand up for one, what a joke
Are the Red Wings fan myself, Sabre fans may not want to hear this but I believe it's time to move on from Lindy Ruff.. a new voice with a new style and system in place may be exactly what this team needs going forward.. I mean this guy coached Dominik Hasek for crying out loud over TWO DECADES AGO!!.. but hey, if Sabre fans are satisfied with this Twilight Zone spiral than so be it..
I just don't see why they're afraid to move on from him.. he's not the answer.. he's outta touch and outdated with the new game and new era of players
