Waddup boys n girls - LETS GO SABRES

[Tondas]

Maybe Middelstedt can wear Reinhart’s jersey tonight.

 

Go Sabres!

Saw him sporting number 11 for Team USA.  That will definitely need to change once he is a Sabre.

[Doohicksie]

"Here to sing the national anthem..." Beautiful. Not to honor America, support the troops or thank the first responders.

Yes, very nice. The elementary school teacher did a great job.

[Stoner]

The girl with the dolls behind the bench is going to creep them out, big time.

[Doohicksie]

I wish Lehner would pass the puck to his own Dman 8 feet away instead of rimming it around the boards. That's twice already he's handed it over to the Isles.

This is just what he does. Lehner behind the net = turnover.

[Stoner]

Again, please tell me that towel is Kane's, and Kane's alone.

[Tondas]

You can tell the effect of breeding.  Nolan plays like his father (and the way his father coached his teams).  Minimally skilled, tough as nails, and 100% every shift.  I think the Sabres are reflective of Housley.

I enjoy this period so far

[Stoner]

Russian hackers have taken control of the telestrator. Draw pee pee on screen when Eichel have puck.

[3putt]

Who let Rob get the telestrator pen?

Putin.

First words out of Rob's mouth are "very good period from. The Buffalo Sabres"

 

 

We seem to have a ton of very good periods where we don't score any goals. Imagine if someone actually put a puck in a net every now and then.

[SwampD]

Yay. Another no goal period.

 

At least they don't fight or hit, either.

[Thorner]

I'd like to see Rodrigues on Eichel's RW now. I think his speed would help that line.

[Gramps]

Just watched road to winter classic and I'm not sure how Phil's coaching is but his between period and post game speeches are the absolute worst.

 

It looks like the players are not even listening to him. I really think he is out soon.

 

He'll make a great assistant coach with the Caps when his wife wins the Franken-seat.

A good period for the Sabres is not being down 3-0. 

[Stoner]

Duff comes off as a passive aggressive creep sometimes. Marty said "face painted into the glass" instead of "planted" and Brian had to call him on it, with a smile of course. Just leave it alone. He's done it to Marty a number of times this season.

Poor start. Must be the second period.

[Brawndo]

Damn

[Sabel79]

That was always coming.

 

All sorts of standing around in the defensive zone and not doing much of anything. This can not be escaping notice of the coaching staff / JBOTS. It's the latter's opinion I'd really be interested in.

Ooh, unlucky, Benoit...

Was going to say. Freeze frame the goal moment and you see a bunch of Sabres looking in every direction but the scorer.

[SwampD]

Wtf was Kane doing on that goal?! Who leaves a guy wide open right in front of the net.

[Brawndo]

YEESS

[SwampD]

Great pass by Eichel!!!!

[Beer]

Z from E

[SwampD]

Great goal by Girgs, too!!!!
