That was an entertaining 3rd period. The Sabres play better when they know they need a goal as opposed to going into a shell and blowing a lead.

Players or coach driven?

Yeah, and they even spent a few shifts taking the play to the Habs after they scored the 3rd one, though that may have been due to the Habs being the Habs.

[Huckleberry]

That goal deserves another shot of Shelby

 

making it hard to focus on my job :p

[Norcal]

Wooooooo yeahhhhh the halfs

[Taro T]

Yeah, that Stang looks like its got a Shelby. ;)

[SwampD]

Phrasing.

[Taro T]

Jack may have gotten a secondary assist on Foligno's goal.

Eichel was the only Sabre skater not directly involved on that goal (McCabe sent the puck up to Franson), but he did have 2 Habs watching him which is why Foligno was sooooo alone in front of the net.

[WildCard]

Phrasing.

Good catch

[Taro T]

Sweet, thanks. Just saw that goal right now actually. That feed by Risto was something else Someone earlier told me Franson got that

Never gets a chance to make that pass w/out Eichel's work keeping the puck in the zone. Nice play all around. (Reinhart had nice position in front of the net keeping Condon honest.)

I never would have picked him to be the best Sabre at screening the goalie had I been asked at the beginning of the season.

Kane, Larsson line playing every other shift?  ;)

3rd line production, 2 goals, 12 SOG's and 7 hits. That's a months worth of stats.

Larsson looking good and confident. His defense has been good for awhile but since he's matched up with Kane, things seem to be opening up for him and he's taking advantage of it.

Foligno with another strong game also. Not just the goal but he's contributing on that Eichel line. He and Girgs shared 10 hits, laying the wood for Eichel.

Lehner is growing on me also, another nice game...... Did he steal one for us today???

[JJFIVEOH]

Players or coach driven?

 

I'm hoping it was coach driven. Might be a sign Goober is giving them a little more leeway to do what they want.

 

Yeah, and they even spent a few shifts taking the play to the Habs after they scored the 3rd one, though that may have been due to the Habs being the Habs.

 

I hope it's a trend moving forward.

[SarasotaSabre]

Gio!

 

Sabres: :) :) :) :)

Habs: :( :(

 

 

thanks, I don't think I've seen that before ..... :flirt:

He might not have stolen the game, but that breakaway stop is something we haven't gotten consistently all year (no disrespect to the sometimes-spectacular work that Chad and Linus put in while Robin was out)

Even before his goal, thought he was playing one of his best games. Very happy to see him get the winner.

OK now I've crossed over into creepy.

 

 

 

You were already there.

[woods-racer]

You were already there.

There's a pot kettle thing going on.

 

Phone smiley face.

@BuffaloSabres With tonight's W, #Sabres have points in 7 straight divisional road games (6-0-1) for 1st time in franchise history.

 

Crazy stat.

How is that possible?

 

On another note, I just can't believe how far Moulson has fallen. He just doesn't make anything happen anywhere on the ice. It sucks.

Hate seeing him in over Schaller at this point.

Immature team still learning a new system.

[Iron Crotch]

Yay, team!

Meh

[Doohicksie]

WE WANT FOUR!!!

Okay, one more Shelby Shot and then I'm putting my creep back in the closet.
