That explains the lower minutes. I thought it was fantastic. Dahlin drills Marchand. Marchand retaliates and get suckered into a minor penalty. Then the helmet antics. We score on the PP for the coup de gras. In the post game interview I thought Dahlin answered questions on Marchand and this scrum with class and respect. https://www.nhl.com/sabres/video/rasmus-dahlin-postgame-vs-fla-6382981612112 He said this is the way they are going to play going forward.

Power, Timmins, and Byram all had more TOI than Dahlin. Muel’s TOI was up there too. A Bryson out side effect?

I recall a healthy Greenway playing well with McLeod and Tuch last season. Problem is he was healthy for only maybe 20 games. Power had another nice game.

Gertie played 2:06, so two shifts probably, maybe 3. I recall one shift were he was a deterrent to Florida’s big guys taking liberties.

Injuries. Tkachuk and Barkov for starters.

Quinn battled and Ekblad went out of his way to rough up Quinn. First in the corner, the again in front of the net. Quinn finally showing some grit.

Doan. The forechecker I’ve been looking for.

I see Thompson get grabbed, held, and spun around with no call. Then they call Timmons for another FL PP. Another good PK. Way to go Sabres.

Marty agrees with me. Marchand should have got another 10. Meghan says don’t get pulled into that stuff, but Buffalo cannot back down either.

I hope your correct about that in the 3rd. They cannot give Florida any room, and they must continue to get o-zone time and shots on Bobrovsky.

Another power play gift to Florida How did we get an extra2?

Benson even jabbing at Greer. Fearless.

Power, nice move going to the net.

Thank you Marchand. Love that Dahlin got under his skin. Doaner with 2

Marchand having a meltdown. I would give him another 10 for the helmet *****.

lots of cute passing, now take some shots from the high danger areas. Need more pucks on the net.

That was a pretty good period. Good to see Doan “get rewarded”. They need to keep it up.

Malenstyn - Kozak -Dunne should be the fourth line.

I think the Sabres can win if the goaltending is there. Not sure is Lyon gets rest or not? Florida will try the heavy game, the Sabres need to be ready and play a full 60 minutes. Two in a row would be nice. Go Sabres!

I thought he was steady and he was the only one winning faceoffs. Need to get Greenway back out there.

I want to see Jays v. Dodgers. \
