Broken Ankles

22 SOG. No bueno!

This time last season (after 18 games) the Sabres had just begun an unmentionable streak and was about to embark on the worst stretch of games most of us have ever seen. Their record was 6-9-3 and Ulmark started in 11 of these games. Jack, Sam and T Hall playing in most. Yet scoring 12 goals less than this team through the same 18. Goals against worse, but not by much. And as stated, a legit starter unlike what Donny’s had to work with the last 8. Baby steps….

You got your wish. There were no ‘Must Win’ posts. And see what that brought? A must lose mentality. Medicinal Words

I don’t know Pi. No whistles the last 3+ minutes and they had a few offensive rushes in the last 4 shifts. He played only the top 2 lines in those last 4. Yes another unacceptable third period outshot around 13-4 but not completely in a shell. Lots of blame to share but I place it on the D-men. Bryson specifically.

Are You ***** kidding me?

KO -strong game so far.

Machismo Waggle not adverse to seeing Sid slammed into the boards. Not sure who is capable.

can we ask @bob_sauve28 to close this thread once and for all?

This. Skinner is streaky. Don’t mess with his mojo, unless it demands a change. VO has proven he can with score with anyone. And Olofsson will get plenty of scoring opportunities on the PP when he returns. I like the construct of the line with Mitts and Tuch.

Sabres are the biggest home dog (+145 ML) on the board until tomorrow where they have a +160 against Toronto. No respect. Save your energy tonight boys. Tomorrow is more important. Parlay the Oilers -1 and the over. McTavish Weight

Danny Ainge is coaching the Amerks?

Defensively responsible like son of Lars, but superior on offense in every way. His one-timer on the PP in Anaheim. 😮 Tage has definitely raised eyebrows this season. His play against a good Caps team was encouraging. Fun fact - Because of their unusual shape, giraffes have a highly-specialized cardiovascular system that starts with an enormous heart. It's two feet long and weighs up to 25 pounds. Let’s hope Tage’s proverbial heart is as big.

***** Jack ***** Lehner and now ***** Stone. Even though heretofore I had nothing against him and appreciated his game. They deserve nothing more than our ambivalence. But I’m not quite there yet, so I’ll choose to have a bit of Schadenfreude towards them. And hoping they win the cup is such a bad take.

Milquetoast Wings. from wiki - In 1983, while playing in the American Hockey League (AHL), under the direction of rookie coach Mike Keenan, James scored the winning goal for the Rochester Americans in the Calder Cup. https://www.hockeyfights.com/fights/67347

Toker is by far the only one earning his check tonight. Donny’s game plan - ‘Dump and disgrace’. I thought we were a fast team. Didn’t see that speed much tonight.

You have dismissed Pi’s source on multiple occasions as well as alluded to Vegas not being the leader in trade talks. Tell us more.

You said it. Hot knife/butter

Millennial Welfare. Looking forward to watching Eklund this evening. Read so much about him here prior to the draft. Playing on the second line.

I asked the same question against Anaheim, where they were more rested. The Kings we’re coming off a Saturday game, and the Sabres with Friday and Saturday off. Unacceptable result.

For the double header today Mafia Ways.

I always viewed Triumph as a poor mans Rush. Perhaps unfairly. But doesn’t Lay it on the Line qualify as their best?
