This team just seems to get ahead and make stupid turnovers late in the game, giving other teams the team. I'm starting to wonder if it's time to let Lindy go and bring in someone new.

Hehe...you don't happen to frequent the HF Boards do you?
If not, I apologize but those statements above just seem to echo the sentiment over there.
Plain and simple: if Paille doesn't take a ridiculously stupid, selfish penalty late in the 3rd, the Pens don't go on the powerplay and likely lose the game.
The players just aren't performing - I think this is more of an indictment on Darcy Regier (who I do like) as opposed to Lindy. Regier has to recognize that guys like Teppo, Peters, Paetsch, etc just aren't good enough to play anymore and utilize the kids on the farm more. Heck, Chris Butler has been fantastic in his three games...keep the kid up and scratch Numminen when Rivet gets healthy.
But it won't happen and the Sabres will continue to plod along in ninth place and continue to give us fans false hope that they can make the playoffs.
