Alex Tuch Opens Up About Sabres’ Struggles and New Addition Josh Norris
The Buffalo Sabres have had a tough season, and no one feels it more than forward Alex Tuch. The homegrown talent, who grew up as a Sabres fan before playing for the team, recently admitted that their performance has been below expectations. In an interview with NHL Face Off, shared by the official X account of the 2 Goalies 1 Mic podcast on Wednesday, Tuch expressed his frustration with the team’s current standing.
Tuch Speaks on the Sabres’ Tough Season
“Yeah, I mean, it sucks honestly, and it’s been really tough,” Tuch said. “And to see where we are in the standings, and being a Sabres fan and now a Sabres player my entire life, it does hurt a little bit more, I think.”
Tuch’s words reflect the disappointment that both players and fans feel about the team’s performance. The Sabres have had their fair share of struggles over the years, and despite showing promise, they have yet to take the leap into playoff contention.
However, Tuch remains committed to giving his all and trying to turn things around. “I’m in it,” he said. “I’m here. I’m trying to be better every single day for my teammates and the city of Buffalo. I think that’s what we’re all doing in the locker room. We’ve fallen on some hard times, but we’re there, we’re working hard and we really do care, and we’re looking to get better.”
Welcoming Josh Norris to Buffalo
In addition to addressing the team’s struggles, Tuch also shared his thoughts on Buffalo’s latest acquisition, forward Josh Norris. While he didn’t go into great detail, it’s clear that Tuch sees Norris as a valuable addition to the team.
Norris, a talented center, has the potential to add depth and scoring ability to the Sabres’ lineup. His arrival could provide the team with a much-needed spark as they continue their fight for improvement.
Looking Ahead: Can the Sabres Turn Things Around?
Despite their current struggles, Tuch’s commitment to the team and belief in his teammates suggests that the Sabres aren’t giving up. With the addition of players like Norris and a determined core led by Tuch, Buffalo may still have an opportunity to turn things around.
The Sabres have a passionate fan base that has endured years of disappointment, but players like Tuch, who understand the meaning of wearing the jersey, continue to push forward. Whether this season ends in redemption or continued frustration remains to be seen, but one thing is clear: Tuch and his teammates aren’t going down without a fight.
