Perfect meme (for me). Describes me perfectly. lol
I’ve been totally check out for months now. Haven’t even watched a game. Decided to tune into the isles game to see Byram, and learned they were 3 points out of a playoff spot. So I said “hmm, maybe I should start paying attention to the Sabres again”. So I watched the most recent Detroit game and after they totally melted down when Detroit scored, and lost, I said “ok, nevermind”. lol
I’ll probably at least still occasionally check to see where they are in the standings but I don’t know how many games I’ll actually watch.
I can’t help it. I want to be excited for Sabres hockey again. I really do. But between their terrible play this season and another heartbreaking Bills playoff exit, I’ve kind of forced myself to check out on Buffalo sports. Just for my own sanity. I am not seeing much reason to get my hopes up right now about Sabres playoff hockey this season. I feel like I’d just be setting myself up for more frustration and heartbreak.
I just hope another late season run to 13th last place doesn’t give Adams another excuse not to add anything meaningful to the roster again.
A good finish to a season almost Never carries over into the next season. Adams needs to look at what this team did ALL SEASON. Not just in the last 1/4-1/3 of the season. They are what their record says they are.
After they missed the playoffs by a point last year, we heard all the players say how they learned how important early season games are. That every game matters and they would remember that for next season. Then they proceeded to dig themselves another huge hole in the standings to start this season.
Now this year, it seems the excuse is “we didn’t handle the pressure of expectations well”.
Like, how low has the f’n bar been if simply being expected to be a competent NHL team is too much to handle?
