Wow. Risto's hands. Wow

:lol: :lol:

Oh so supple

[Iron Crotch]

Ryan O'Reilly is the best hockey player I've ever seen on the Sabres.

 

You haven't been following the team long then.   ;)

[qwksndmonster]

Would you care to amend your previous position on this? :p

Maybe Sam. Maybe.

[Randall Flagg]

Even if we end up losing in regulation, I will walk away from this game satisfied. We're clearly the better team.

Yes. 

 

I love SwampD, but Pi is the only thing that saves him from "Franson is better than McCabe" being the worst idea of the new season. McCabe is phenomenal.

05, so correct.

Babcock's face is one reason to hate high definition TV.

He's like a less gross version of John Merrick.

[LGR4GM]

Omfg totally owning a team and can't freaking score. Ridiculous

2 mistakes by us and a hot goalie on the other end, I can't be upset at all.... We play like this, we will win more than lose

[qwksndmonster]

Yes.

McCabe has fixed basically every problem I had with his game last year; by far the best development of the early season IMO. My new "fix the D" plan is focused on the right side.

Yup.

[Iron Crotch]

We would have had a better chance in this one had a few penalties been called. That said, the big mistakes early really cost the Sabres.

Bogo to LV, Shatty to buffalo

It happens when the goalie is hot.

[qwksndmonster]

MORE of that, Risto.

[sodbuster]

Risto carrying it in deep

[Randall Flagg]

I don't think Andersen is going to let this happen.

[Iron Crotch]

You can tell Bylsma has green-lighted the defensemen. Risto and McCabe are making some nice plays in the offensive zone.

[TrueBlueGED]

I'll drink to that!

For sure. Good stuff.

[Nitro60]

Icing is brutal this late in the game. Have to be smarter.

[qwksndmonster]

Foligno is so garbage.

[Nitro60]

Need more traffic in front of the goalie when the Sabres are on the attack.  

[TrueBlueGED]

Not that we don't miss him at other times, but a hot goalie is where we really miss our one player who can flat-out just beat a goalie with his shot.

[qwksndmonster]

Chip in there? Come on, O'Reilly.

[Beer]

Let's win this game dammit

[Randall Flagg]

Do they have the magic tonight?

[Nitro60]

That was the break the Sabres needed.
