On Thursday night, the Buffalo Sabres lost for the fifth time in their last six games.

The game appears to have been extra frustrating for forward Jack Eichel, who sounded off on his team after they squandered a 2-0 lead against the Detroit Red Wings, ultimately losing 6-3.

"We think we can take shifts off. We think we can take plays off. We don't think every play matters, and it does," Eichel said, according to John Vogl of Buffalo News. "It all adds up at the end of the game. We continue to make similar mistakes and sleep through shifts, sleep through periods, and all of a sudden it's 6-3. It's frustrating."

As for Eichel, he set a career high Thursday with his 25th goal of the year and tied his career best with his 57th point.

The Sabres' season has been lost for some time, however; they currently sit with a five-point cushion over last place in the league standings.
