1-10: Phil Housley on WGR (9:49)

 

@WGR550
 
#Sabres head coach Phil Housley joins Howard and Jeremy next on WGR! Tune in:
 

Housley - we're at the 43-game mark and we continue to talk about the same things at this point of the season. I thought we played well leading up to the Winter Classic, then we go on the road trip and we get away from what we were doing well. #Sabres

 

Housley - in this league, you have to do everything you can to keep the puck out of the net, and we haven't been doing that. We are trying to do things to get a goal or break when we need to play the game the right way. #Sabres

 

Housley - we have to take a look at all options at this point moving forward. When times get tough, our forwards have to come to the forefront. We can't look any further than tomorrow's game against Columbus. We need to take advantage of these home games. #Sabres

 

Housley - we need to do more. At times, we're getting leadership, but when it gets tough we need the leaders to step up. Today, we'll get back on the ice and the leadership group has to lead the charge. #Sabres

 

Housley - I love the way Guhle played last night, like what he brought with his speed and bringing the puck up the ice on the attack. I love his game. #Sabres

Housley - when he was getting involved in the offensive zone, his reads were good. When the rush came back the other way, I liked how he used his speed to get back. #Sabres

Lehner wants to stay in Buffalo I guess for the rest of the year, cause no one going to trade for him based on that performance. Lord he was awful. 

 

Was there really ever any serious thought that a team would trade for neck tattoo?  Is there a playoff bound team that has a goalie worse than him?  Actually is there a hockey team anywhere with a goalie worse than him?

Lot o chatter the Isles were looking at him, yes that is from reputable folks like Friedman and Dreger

Given his frame, I think we could duct tape his limbs to the four corners of the net and have a better save percentage than letting him do his thing. Gawd awful!!
