Some updates from #GameDay morning skate:

 

Nikita Zadorov will play tonight, per Coach Rolston.

 

D pairings at morning skate were as follows: Ehrhoff-Pysyk. Tallinder-Myers. Zadorov-Weber. McBain-Ristolainen. No forward line rushes.

 

Ryan Miller was the first goalie off the ice, so he's expected to start tonight.

Zadorov with Weber eh? That'll be an adventure for Nikita with how bad Weber has looked so far.

I didn't see the game the other day....but this is the pairing that can salvage any bit of season left. I think Weber has been trying to do too much. Then after the poor start, he got in his own head. Now you have the 2 guys on the team that actually WANT to clear people from in front. Just play responsible, make guys pay for position, and Nikita can rush the puck knowing Weber "should" be a safety.

 

Should be interesting. The first time Lucic or Marchand are spraying ice, or dangling over Miller at the whistle...I want a double facewash.

Good point Ghost, I can't wait to see the physicality from that pairing. When was the last time we iced a D pairing that will both knock heads if anyone bumps Miller?

At some point you're going to start valuing ability to play hockey over physicality.

Not watching the game tonight since I'll be at a soccer game (watching, not playing). DVRing the game and the Rivals show. Probably will fast forward and catch the sparknotes highlights later.

 

Really hope we win this. The only teams I can't stand to lose to are Philly, Toronto and Boston.

Good because otherwise you would be in for a very long year.

Wait, when did you get on board with the idea of tanking? Serious question.

 

I saw video of Sam Reinhart and looked at the records of the previous dozen or so cup winners in the 4-6 years prior to starting their runs of excellence. Sam can change everything and indeed, the way the NHL is set up right now, it's essentially the only way it works.

The Sabres have had the ability to play hockey for years. There is a reason season ticket holders have felt safe scheduling 2 week vacations in late April the past 8 years.....

 

Perhaps. But that certainly isn't the problem this year.

Welcome aboard! We have cake!

Why you dirty little ratatouille.

 

I'm watching the situation closely. I gots me an idea to go a little..."Quebec Nordiques" on this. I just need to feel out when the absolute best time to do this is, and be at the game.

 

Jump over the glass, get pummeled by Rob, then set yourself on fire?
