Buffalo Sabres win streak ends in Columbus, but now comes the real test
The Buffalo Sabres went to Columbus win a 10-game win streak and left with a 0-game win streak. How much of the Sabres 5-1 loss was on Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen’s shoulders? How much of it was just running into a hot goalie in Jet Greaves?
How will the Sabres bounce back with a bunch of home games coming up? Past mistakes show the next few games are huge. Plus, Jason Zucker’s return is coming, but is Noah Ostlund going to be the forward that gets the short end of the stick, and not Peyton Krebs?

Honestly, it’s all good that they lost. I was hoping they would lose sooner so I could see if they were legit or not but any team that wins 10 is obviously legit now let’s see if they can keep the wins going.
I absolutely hate early games.. hate hate hate them..think the players may dislike them as well.
i'm absolutely proud of the boys for the streak and I'm embarrassed for the piss poor effort against Columbus. They didn't want it at all. and again, UPL approving he's inconsistent and we should trade him along with powerless.
Go grab Logen Stanley from WPG
Quinn, the only answer on whom should sit is Quinn
Win 5 of next 7 and you're playing like a good team. Need to beat Canadiens and teams in our division. Lot of hockey left 🏒
I don't know who the idiot was that said " upl kept us in the game" but whoever said this must never have watched or played hockey. UPL let 2 goals between his legs. An NHL goalie would never allow those. The UPL experiment should be over. Enough. Did upl lose the game for us. NO. But you could have made it a game
Ruff needs to be asked about Kulich
Is it that time already. WGR hate the sabres again…..the 4 cure say so
They are no longer in the wild card
Goalie can't win all the games for them UPL played well enough to win. The Olivier goal was Powers fault at blue line for playing puck instead of man if he played the man Olivier wasn't getting by him and also add in the undersized 3rd Dman pairing of Metsa and Bryson and no hit Power = loss
This guy IMO is StatHo that honestly does not know Sabres hockey other than a stat he can pull up. How does this man have a radio show, like for real, how does he know NOTHING about the defensive players in Rochester?? SERIOUSLY
Let me help you, Novikov has improved greatly as a Defenseman this year and we have done the right thing in taking our time and not rushing him into a NHL role because Defenseman developer slower then Forwards….Early Dahlin, Power now are examples of rushed DMen who should have been sent to Rochester first. I might add Novikov is on the last year of his entry level contract so it would make sense to take a look see and see what you have.
You also have Johnson in Rochester I personally believe he has regressed and that is why Metsa is in Buffalo and Johnson is not.
Zac Jones a far superior option in my opinion then Bryson, but I am convinced Bryson has a voodoo doctor casting spells on someone in the front office to keep a job in the NHL. Zac Jones gets an assist every time a snowflake falls from the sky…FACT
Komarov IMO is a solid stay home Defensemen that may need a little more time in Rochester to round out his game.
DO YOUR JOB AND KNOW SABRES HOCKEY OR GET A NEW JOB.
Give the crease to Ellis vs the canucks
