Game Discussion Thread Sabres at Avalanche, 12/5/2017, 9 PM ET

[Stoner]

Risto is such a tease.

[hockeyhound]

We should cut Moulson more often, they are playing well

 

 Mr. Moulson, will you be returning to the team?

[Stoner]

Antipin and ROR switched sweaters.

[Brawndo]

That’s cheating Nikita

[Tondas]

The whole thing's down for everybody...

 

It is for me in NE.  Cant get any games on NHL.tv.

[DarthEbriate]

I'm too close for missiles (nhl.tv). Switching to guns (radio).

[Stoner]

Better and quicker puck movement.

[WildCard]

Why is there no movement down low on the PP

[Nitro60]

PP shots need to be closer in and screened.  Good effort

[ubkev]

That was a good cycle. Risto, Pominville and ROR were working it.

[WildCard]

PP shots need to be closer in and screened.  Good effort

Or moved away from the same 3 freaking people

[ubkev]

Why is there no movement down low on the PP

They're trying to drop bombs.

[hockeyhound]

Very deliberate, and calculating.

 

They're playing well; Let's Go Buffalo!

It looked like an NHL PP

 

No goals in nine games! :(

[Stoner]

Am I crazy or... never mind... was there some kind of sound effect in the arena when the Sabres' PP ended? I didn't know that was allowed. If it was just on the broadcast, that's kind of an interesting idea.

[WildCard]

They're trying to drop bombs.

Which is fine, but you have to keep the defense and goalie guessing. That was just so predictable, it's never going to work

But it works with Ovi every single time. And it worked with us last year. We were both there to see it work against Toronto.

 

I do know what you mean, though.

 

I will say, at least they looked like they were on the power play.

It sounded like a Super Mario Bros. power-up. Back to full strength.

[ubkev]

That's what it was. Red mushroom.

[WildCard]

Come on. That's roughing?

[ubkev]

He may have left his feet.

[darksabre]

Come on. That's roughing?

He jumped at the guy's head. Yeah.

[hockeyhound]

Keeping it simple, back to the basics. Not bad.

 

Let's Go Buffalo!

[darksabre]

Colorado looked a little disinterested.

[WildCard]

Didn't see the jump till the replay.

 

9 shots though, not bad
