Veteran forward fires at his organization and seasons calling it “PATHETIC.”

It’s been a tough year for the Buffalo Sabres. They did not find a way to duplicate the Toronto Maple Leafs models by rebuilding with young star players like Jack Eichel. The only positive point: Ryan O’Reilly named Sabres MVP.

Speaking of O’Reilly, the guys has had enough this year and he opened up to Buffalo insider Joe Yerdon. If you read between the lines, O’Reilly is clearly firing at his organization.

I’m sick of it, for sure, it’s so disappointing, it’s so frustrating coming to the rink right now. Practicing there’s no purpose right now. You’re seeing other teams gearing up for playoffs and seeing teams, like a Toronto who’s young too, seeing them in the spot we should be in—it’s very frustrating. I’m sick of losing, it’s getting exhausting and it’s not fun. It sucks the fun out of the game.” Said Ryan O’Reilly.

As a good leader, O’Reilly also pointed himself out.

Yeah, absolutely; it’s very disappointing. Your first year it’s all right because there are so many new faces and you can see it took a while for guys to get used to each other in playing, but then this year you start to get things going and then you fall back into old habits again and our old ways and, again, that’s a big piece of it is me. Being a leader, a lot of it falls on me, but to do it two years in a row like this and not go anywhere and not get any better it’s pathetic. It’s so frustrating and things have got to change. We’ve got three games left here and we’ve got to prove something at least to ourselves.”
