GDT: Sabres at Red Wings 12-23-2014 7:30PM

[inkman]

I want Chris Stewart on my team

[Tondas]

Sabres really skating this period. Maybe it's all the youth in the lineup.

[SABRES 0311]

Well I'm happy with the effort so far. I think Armia looks composed and fitting in. If Flynn's pass hits an inch lower on Stafford's blade its 3 to 1.

 

Not too mu h activity on the board tonight. I remember when we would have twice as many pages for the first period.

[dudacek]

Stewart and Hodgson seem to have really upped their games tonight.

Credit to getting second-line minutes having a smart two-way centre between them?

I have the Red Wings coverage on. A lot of complimentary things to say about the Sabres' recent run, although they think it won't last. Best line so far was discussion of the CoHo/Kassian trade, a trade that according to Mickey Redmond "both teams equally lost." That was before CoHo set up the second goal (which was a very sweet, high-skill setup).

 

Goodness, but I do like Pysyk's hockey sense.

 

He may not be the most talented or roughest Dman the Sabres have, but he's the smartest, imo.

 

What a play!! I'm Ready to like this team. ..I can ALMOST see my team out there

 

Not that they're a world-beater, but this is a team that's turned the corner. They will never be as bad as they were last season or the first month of this season.

Definitely. You can tell he's a guy who sees the game in slower motion than others.

[Doohicksie]

They keep re-showing the Stewart goal, pointing out that both Nyquist and Kindl were caught looking, and pointing out that Smith thought Kindl had Stewart covered. Also at the start of the play, Steward was almost down in the defensive corner and skated past all the Red Wings.

 

Redmond on Buffalo's 1-2-2 defense: "They are just BLANKETING the ice."

How old am I. Every time I see Armia, I have Benoit Hogue flashbacks.

Detroit's possession game is sick.

[SwampD]

Did Ennis really just daze Kronwall? :blink:

[WildCard]

Ennis has been throwing the body around lately

Who?

[Doohicksie]

Mickeyism regarding Zadorov: "He's a tall drink of water at 6 foot 5."

 

That was a weak penalty though.

[darksabre]

Haha, looked like he was trying to keep the Red Wings player in the net.

[SABRES 0311]

Wow Benoit just divided by zero.
