lol TT and Dahlin 2 points and combined -5

Maybe try being the reason they don't suck.

44 goals for T and both players at a ppg last year…

Were they the reason they sucked last year or the year before?

Nope but this aint last year.

And I didn't say they were ever the reason they sucked, I said be the reason they don't suck.

Just as easy to question the leadership in the locker room.

Right, but last year they were excellent. Who cares about 3 games lol.

It’s a culture. 2 guys or a couple leaders don’t change it

Just saying all they should be worried about right now is their own game.

Really? I’d be worried about a lot more than that if I was a competitor. Pretty human

Not really, competitors worry about what they can control first, in my experience that is one of the main characteristics of elite competitors. I'm sure both guys are and will continue to do just that.

Yes really. Is McDavid elite?

[IsDurbanodoingtime]

I agree that there is a "culture" issue that did not exist previously. Two players who both left and won cups in Ror and Eichel both made equivalent comments about how they lost their joy in playing the game ( paraphrase) signals something. Berglund was onto something in opting to essenially retire. The continuous parade of talent - Reinhart, etc. that have left or signaled they want out reflects that players want nothing to do with this franchise. A far cry from the days of the french connection.

Yes and I guarantee you if he had 1 point and was a -3 that is what he would be thinking about.

You’re shifting and avoiding the point. Of course he takes responsibility for himself. But there are bodies of work and cultures … that go well beyond 3 games. You know that though.

Elite athletes want to win more than anything. You know that too

I mean its my point so I don't think I am, the point (my point) is right now all those guys should be worried about is their own performance and I'm sure that is the case.

Given their situations and durations is that humanly possible? I mean they are nice ideals, but that’s not the way humans work/function in these situations.

Another terrible start to the season. They played OK against the Avalanche yesterday but they just couldn’t up.

What changes will be made before the season is over? I heard on the NHL Network yesterday that both Dahlin and TT have said they want to see improvement this year or they’re going to be looking for a new place to play. Can’t imagine Buffalo would really want to trade either (regardless of return) but I can very much imagine a world where TT and Dahlin twist the arm of Adams and demand trades.

Just feel so bad for the Sabres fans. Talk about a fanbase that has earned the right to watch some winning hockey.

I don't give a (bleep) about Buffalo. My only interest is in the Blues doing well. I hope the Blues annihilate Buffalo.

Right now? You bet it is, now come off season if they as individuals have great success but the team flops again then maybe they have a problem with it but right now 3 games into this season they had better be worried about what they control and I'm sure they are.

I personally think even then they should be thinking about how they can be the difference and what they can do to lead the team to a better culture.

[Pierre McGuire]

I wonder if Army still has interest in Byram. Just a matter of time before a few guys ask out. Hard to believe they can’t figure it out because they have had the talent.

Who are you sending if this happens?

It’s Buffalo…so Kessel, a mid tier prospect and a 3rd round draft pick. We basically already gave them Ellis…so that’s a good haul for them.

They looked real good today against Florida and (bleep) Tage is a stud he’d look good in a blues uni
