Beer Posted March 5, 2017 Report Share Posted March 5, 2017 DD needs to pull Lehner out of the goal in OT, he is not capable of stopping a shot and we're not capable of burying one either. At least Jack extended his point streak to nine games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PromoTheRobot Posted March 5, 2017 Report Share Posted March 5, 2017 We have no shootout skills at either end. These officials are going to get Eichel killed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beer Posted March 5, 2017 Report Share Posted March 5, 2017 Bring back Kotalik and Van! Both were money in the shootout. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sabel79 Posted March 5, 2017 Report Share Posted March 5, 2017 To be fair, there was no shootout in 2002 when Disco had his last thought on the game of hockey etched into a stone tablet. Why bother working on it? Not important. Now, let's turn those defense men around.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beer Posted March 5, 2017 Report Share Posted March 5, 2017 Dear Robin, you're a funking NHL goalie, why are you unable to stop a penalty shot? For realz?!?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwampD Posted March 5, 2017 Report Share Posted March 5, 2017 I don't think that was a trip on Jack. I mean, I'm just not sure enough to say it was. Jack had the puck, Hedman hits him and Jack buckles. The stick was kind of a red herring there and maybe there could have been a throwing the stick penalty. No goals for and all goals against in the shootout. Game over. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tondas Posted March 5, 2017 Report Share Posted March 5, 2017 My god, who has the balls to try the move that Kutcherof did on the last shootout goal. That was amazing, and intentional. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randall Flagg Posted March 5, 2017 Report Share Posted March 5, 2017 I'm pretty much done with wanting shootouts around and it doesn't have anything to do with how bad we are this year. We are one of the best teams at it historically, actually. They just aren't fun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gramps Posted March 5, 2017 Report Share Posted March 5, 2017 Just another sad chapter in this sad season for the Sabres. They just don't have the horses to win. Sign Kotalik just for the shootout Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ogre Posted March 5, 2017 Report Share Posted March 5, 2017 Dear Robin, you're a funking NHL goalie, why are you unable to stop a penalty shot? For realz?!?! I'm afraid his biggest skill is just simply being big. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarthEbriate Posted March 5, 2017 Report Share Posted March 5, 2017 (edited) My god, who has the balls to try the move that Kutcherof did on the last shootout goal. That was amazing, and intentional. He did it because he was confident the goalie was so rattled it just might work. Is Lehner worth being protected in the expansion draft. He's solid, sure. But he's not elite. If you're Las Vegas, do you even bother taking a guy who cannot stop a shootout attempt? There are other, cheaper, better options.

rickshaw Posted March 5, 2017 Report Share Posted March 5, 2017 How can a number one goalie have ZERO saves in all shootouts this year? HOW? Lehner should be pulled before it starts. I thought Luongo was bad when he was in Vancouver. Zero saves!!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought Luongo was bad when he was in Vancouver. Zero saves!!!!! Not sure how he can ever be our longterm solution for No.1 goalie with all the points we'd be forfeiting in the SO. I think when we all envisioned the Sabres someday contending again, it'd come with winning the division and having home-ice in the playoffs. Not sure how that happens if we're losing every SO.

TheAud Posted March 5, 2017 Report Share Posted March 5, 2017 Lehner is really bad at shootouts. Got it. So without 31 saves against 32 shots, the game doesn't get to a shootout. If the Sabres could score more than 1 goal at home in 65 minutes, it doesn't go to a shootout. If Jack or Samson scores, the shootout continues. But let's just focus on one thing here.

Lehner was good again and robbed Drouin, who is a little bitch Kane got robbed Vasilevski was good tonight and really good at shootouts apparently Lehner is not good at shootouts, not right now anyways I'm just glad Jack wasn't injured on that Hedman mugging Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taro T Posted March 5, 2017 Report Share Posted March 5, 2017 ... I just heard Adele on the radio. It's sung ;) Such a tragic cosmic joke, that so often the really great female voices are attached to REALLY large, uh, personalities (or maybe just drop the alities :unsure:). Unless they have a smokey quality like Chrissie Hynde or Alannah Myles. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the Sabres could score more than 1 goal at home in 65 minutes, it doesn't go to a shootout. If Jack or Samson scores, the shootout continues. But let's just focus on one thing here. Exactly right. The Sabres in that third period were pathetic. They played a typical Bylsma game if they were up by a goal or two. They literally didn't try to do anything or attempt to score a goal. The Sabres sat back and played for overtime. We only generated 6 SOG in that period. The system sucks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sabre fan Posted March 5, 2017 Report Share Posted March 5, 2017 ... I just heard Adele on the radio. Holy crap that is funny! anyways, clearly that's all she wrote for this year. but we have to admit we were pumped way back in September. how was TM (or anybody) to ever know that we'd have so many injuries? Kulikov must be injury prone or something becuase he went down again last night. KO out now for a while and he has been quietly having a nice year. Frustrating all these SO loses...
