Game discussion thread GDT: Kings at Sabres 7PM 12-13-16

[TrueBlueGED]

Some really good looks so far

 

Can't believe Okposo didn't hammer that chance at the start of the PP.

[Randall Flagg]

Yeah, the Kings. They are unwatchable. 

[TrueBlueGED]

Evander Kane doing Evander Kane things :wallbash:

[WildCard]

Yeah, ###### the Kings. They are unwatchable.

I hate them for their style of play and their bandwagon, celebrity fans

[TrueBlueGED]

Yeah, ###### the Kings. They are unwatchable. 

 

I really, really hope this isn't want Murray has in mind for the Sabres.

[Randall Flagg]

I really, really hope this isn't want Murray has in mind for the Sabres.

Just count your lucky stars that SwampD isn't GM :P 

[sodbuster]

Does anybody here have any numbers regarding the efficiency of our PP1 vs PP2?

[WildCard]

Can't believe Okposo didn't hammer that chance at the start of the PP.

Or ROR didn't with that awkward hesitation chance

[That Aud Smell]

That's the key, really, keeping his feet moving.

I see you, PA.

I really, really hope this isn't want Murray has in mind for the Sabres.

He's said as much, yeah?

 

Or was thos merely a misdirection - reference to group think to which he does not subscribe?

I don't care what anybody says, this trash is less exciting to watch than the tank teams. I don't know what the hell Goober is thinking. Pathetic. 

[WildCard]

Am I the only one that didn't think that period was that bad? If you want to blame anyone, blame Suter

[Tondas]

No, you're right.  Even the Sabrepede had more entertainment value.

I believe that particular quote was typical GM obfuscation around draft time. That said, I continue to think there's some level of disconnect between Murray's words on players and playing style, and the types of players he has acquired. 

[Randall Flagg]

Doughty commits 3 penalties per shift on average.

Has to "earn" that Norris somehow!

[TheAud]

Deslauriers is so useless

[Randall Flagg]

Samson has played more soccer than hockey today.

[TrueBlueGED]

If any fans actually fall sleep in their seat, I will not look down upon them.

[WildCard]

Samson has played more soccer than hockey today.

Yeah he looks terrible on that line tonight

[TrueBlueGED]

We almost got a shot on goal at even strength!

[WildCard]

Deslauriers is so useless

Grant is useless, Des might actually be a detriment

 

What a play by Risto. All we need is one goal and this game shifts dramatically I think

[SwampD]

I know everyone wants to blame DD, but I've seen at least 5 zone entries so far where everyone was in the right spot and it looked like the right play,... and they just couldn't connect on the pass and it ends up going the other way. It's so GD frustrating.

Time for Jack to start shooting the freaking puck

[JJFIVEOH]

Rob Ray: "With 17 points he [Risto] is the defensive core for this team."

 

Hey Rob, with 17 points he's also the offensive core.
