[Brayton J. Wilson] Sabres head coach Lindy Ruff says Jiri Kulich is going to miss a “significant amount of time” with a blood clot issue that he called “pretty serious”. All the best to Kulich, but the issues in Buffalo continue to pile up…

1. It’s over I’m afraid. The Sabres just don’t have the forward depth to sustain the injuries they’ve had and, even when fully healthy, they were already lacking down the middle.

3. Uncle

   Mercy

   Just make it stop

4. Man, that’s awful. My family has dealt with a lot of blood clotting issues. Nothing to mess with.

5. Both teams crushed by injuries

6. Couldn’t even make it through Thanksgiving before falling entirely apart this year.

7. Wishing him the best but man this season feels cursed

8. What curse has been placed upon this franchise

9. Pack it in, this season isn’t going to happen.

   We’ve pissed off some Eldritch god and they are making their displeasure with our team/city known.

10. That’s crazy at his age, how awful. This season is beyond cursed.

11. Between the Sabres and Bills, there is something wrong with the water in Buffalo it seems.

12. they really gave us (me) a glimmer of hope in October just for this to hit

13. …fire sale? Seriously

14. Buffalo sports is doomed, it’s actually insane how many injuries have piled up so quickly.

15. Jesus… well… if everyone else has a clear bill of health for the season… we should be…. Fine.

    Damn.

    ( I’m 1 win away from writing playoffs baby! Okay, maybe a 3 game win streak away)

16. I’m glad at least they caught it before anything catastrophic with his health happened. Seems that way, right?

    Best wishes to him, absolutely sucks to go through.

17. I mean i hope kulich is okay. But dear fucking christ…theres a distinct possibility his career may be over. Ok can we as fans pitch in for an entire city exorcism. Please uncurse us.

18. It was weird when Lindy said Kulich’s issue was “nothing physical.” I guess that makes sense now, though it is clearly physical, he must have been saying it wasn’t an “injury” like most would think of.

19. Just burn the year of control on Helenius at this point.

20. Should we start investigating the water supply in Erie county? Bills and Sabres, I have never seen so many injuries this early in a season.

21. Wishing the best for Kulich. The worst part about all the injuries is that we’re just going to run it back next season and blame it on those.

23. The season is lost if Tage can’t find his old self

24. As easy and reasonable as it usually is to blame Sabres management, this team has just been cursed this year.

25. 5 big dooms

26. Look out below. No team can weather this scale of injuries.

27. Wait until they fire Lindy and bring back Ted Nolan for the third time. Then we’ll really be cookin

28. Isn’t that why Cody McCormick retired?

29. The worst part about this is Kevin might get another year to keep fucking this up because this year was “derailed” by injuries.
