GDT Islanders at Buffalo 2/8/18 7pm MSG, GR

[That Aud Smell]

Which are awesome minus the stupid, moronic, completely disenfranchinsing NY under the Crest. Sigh!!

 

Do something right NHL!

 

I received a Winter Classic jersey for Christmas, and I'm gonna say: I sorta like that little NY in there.

 

A Nelson-Scandella pairing is awesome because it sounds like:

 

Well turned.

[LTS]

I'll miss the start of the game and by the time I get home.. if things are that bad.. I'll miss the rest of the game.

 

We have to hope for the Sabres to light up whoever is in goal so as to encourage a Lehner trade.  :)

[Randall Flagg]

As Valentine's Day approaches, the Sabres have as many home wins as the Bills finished with.

[Winston]

Well turned.

 

I chose that image of Madnela at random... but now I realize that it eerily mirrors my new Josie avatar of Eichel :D

[Taro T]

I wonder if Howie thinks B-loo can be a good NHL defenseman with enough experience.

Still think Housley sees some of himself in Beaulieu. Can't come up w/ any other rationale why he keeps giving him so much rope.

I'm November 2016 I tried to use that experience excuse to rationale something, thus far hasn't panned out at all.

 

Baloo is what he is.

From what I've seen (limited) and what I've read: The team hasn't played terribly since the All-Star break, and, for decent stretches of time, has played pretty well.

 

They just sorta stink.

 

I'd like to see them get 2 here, in regulation.

 

Did you know there are only 2 players in the top 50 in goals with a lower sh% than Eichel? 10.8%

 

Brendan Gallagher at 10.6% (t44th in goals)

Vladamir Taresenko at 9.7% (t22nd in goals) 

Here come the analytics people with "bad luck, he'll revert to his mean and score more goals." Or... he just doesn't possess a great shot.

 

About damn time.

I wonder exactly how many line combinations people are going to haul out and throw in Housley's face with a "finally!" Nolan-Eichel-Wilson. Finally!

 

I understand splitting Risto and Scandella to spread the talent a little bit and form a second pair that can eat into the top pair’s minutes. Would have preferred to experiment with McCabe as Risto’s partner over Beaulieu though. Unfortunately we’re without Jake for 3-4 weeks :(

 

A Nelson-Scandella pairing is awesome because it sounds like:

Nice. And lol to Nelson Scandella and the Eichel similarity.

[LGR4GM]

Beaulieu's shot percentage is right at his career average. He is what he is.

Trust the process.

[spndnchz]

The bolded is, uhhh, bold.

 

Bogo done for the season, McCabe gone 3-4 weeks, that’s what’s left.

[bob_sauve28]

Just beat these guys.

 

That way JT will want to sign with the Sabres.

 

GO SABRES!!

 

+++++

 

Damn phone (just in case).

:unsure:

 

Any chance at all this happens? 

I wonder if Howie thinks B-loo can be a good NHL defenseman with enough experience.

He is worth giving a shot to. I mean what is there to lose this season? I really thought we would see more offensive upside to him but it just isn't there

[stenbaro]

I just pounded down 2 ziggy's taco's and one beef bean and cheese burrito in hopes it gives me a reason to not go waste my time at another Sabre's Game.  Come on montezumas revenge!!!!!!!!!!

[dudacek]

Baloo is what he is.

Last year he had 28 points on a crappy Montreal team.

There was no way he was this bad

[inkman]

Any chance at all this happens?

 

None. Not even a slight one.

[Stoner]

I saw the Kane is Able truck again. And a shooting star this morning. Kaner with two and Jacker with one in a 4-3 Sabres overtime.

[Ho-Chi-Sock]

:unsure:

If they kidnap and them hold him against his will at KeyBank tonight, then it will help said chances an awful lot.

[Jacque Richard]

GO SABRES!!

not gonna sign here dream kid

Once again, the purpose of the national anthem isn't to honor the military.

with Pegula it is

[pi2000]

wow Halak sucks.   +1 for the winter classic uni's

[ubkev]

I don't love the stripe pattern and I severely hate the NY in the logo, but man, I love the colors!

[Stoner]

All out of sync early.

[erickompositör72]

Beaulieu did save a goal when Lehner was down and out (what a surprise to see Lehner in that state!)

[Stoner]

Scandella and Eichel collide Keystone Kops style. What a Clusterbuck.

[Randall Flagg]

Man, Leddy is sick to watch
