The Google AI on my phone says the old record was 4 in a row by Edmonton. Can anyone confirm this?

I thought it was an amazing performance by the Sabres, who were clearly outclassed by Utah. Yet they frustrated the Mammoth all night and even answered with their own goal when they fell behind. You knew they were going to lose OT against those Utah forwards but it was still a quality "loser point" earned with hard work.

The Utah jerseys look like they were lettered with hockey tape.,

We out shot them. Probably had more scoring chances too.

Oh, is that why.

We've been dictating the pace after the first minute.

2 deadly chances foiled

I don't know. Have the Mammoth played any physical teams yet? The Western looks like the weaker conference. They have two quality wins over Colorado and Winnipeg but 5 wins over sub-.500 teams.

We don't have Jacksonville Icemen thread so I'll just leave this here...

FYI the Sabres peaked last season on November 23rd with a record of 11-9-1 and 23 points, .575, good for third in the conference for a fleeting moment. With a win tonight they can surpass that point % at .577.

Better team, better goalie.

When you say "control over rebounds" are you referring to every time he kicks a rebound to the side? Not every shot sticks to a goalie. Sometimes the best thing you can do is kick it with your pad towards your defenseman. However the rebound of his pad on goal #1 did go directly to a Caps player.

You were at the game and didn't notice the awful play in front of UPL that led to those 2 goals?

What gave me the idea for this thread was the question how is goal scoring this year in light of losing JJ Peterka and no Josh Norris. From there I compared the other stats. The Goals Against numbers are odd being up slightly, but the biggest change is special teams. PP and PK are massively improved.
