Broken Ankles

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?

We have lowered expectations, so all good. Observations Disappointed in the third getting dominated. I expected the Zegras/Henrique/Rakell line to have some success and they did in the first, especially. Zegras is going to be a good player. Ducks played Tuesday and the Sabres Monday. Yes, cross country travel and different time zone, but they shouldn’t have run out of gas. Good passing and rushes in the first. Skinner had his legs moving. More SOG in first half of the second, and controlled play. Butcher/Dahlin - not a great night. I want/ we deserve a shut down D in the Eichel trade. Didn’t think I would say this in August, but Eakin needs to get back soon. Hayden is not good. Asplund continues to score and shows some skill on the one timer. Enjoying watching him improve. KO continues to lead and play hard. Tage losing Faceoffs left and right. Strange bc he was exceeding expectations after the first three games on the dot. Covid protocols coupled with two below average teams definitely affected attendance. We sat in 225 row P. Single game tickets sell for $75 with fees. I bought our tickets at 4pm for $46 - fees included. Kid got a puck. Winning night right there.

The East cost contingency rewarded with a W for staying up late and suffering through a horrible third period. Learning to win.
