Jack looks like he is in pain, what’s bothering him? 

The shot block or whatever it was that made him take a maintenance day at the end of the preseason? Something's tweaked...  he's not shown off either his burst nor his shot yet this season.

Had to be the shot block. Unless it hit him where he's been ailing?

Yeah it was the shot block.  He stayed with it to get his first though.

He'll be fine.  

First win!  First time .500 or better in season since 3/27/17.  Go Sabres!

I'm listening to the NYC broadcast and even I they know it was crap.

What was the problem? When the Ranger got to the dot, clearly in the lead, the linesman determined that the puck would cross the goal line, and it did.

Good game and good win against a team we have to beat. Now we'll see what we can do against Vegas. We just have to weather this first 10 games or so as our lines gel and we battle the long road. I remain hopeful, but it'll be tough.

No.  It's a good rule.

I could be wrong but I believe that's a rule for safety reasons. Don't want people to be swinging sticks in the air by heads and such?

Agreed - don't want players swinging sticks like tennis rackets - would greatly increase risk of serious injuries.  

While I agree with all of you, players are doing it reactionally in these situations anyways. There was no intent to injure. 

The NFL has lightened their rules which have allowed more scoring (under the guise of player safety). The fans like scoring.

if you have the skills to score a goal like Tage did, and were not out to take someone’s head off, maybe they should consider allowing those goals. Just throwing it out there.

Not good enough. Hutton bailed us out. Disappointed second effort. Cool they won but not good enough. 

Yeah, if it wasn't for Hutton, this is a 5-2 or 6-2 game.    They still look the same they have for the past 3-5 years.

I thought we looked better against Boston.

I can't agree with this.  Tonight they played with more urgency and grit than they did against Boston.  And with regards Hutton, that's what a goalie is for.  Some games the goalie wins.  I don't see a problem with that happening in game 2 of the season.

The "attainable pass" rule has been gone for awhile.

In watching it again, though, now I'm confused. The linesman didn't blow the whistle when the Ranger got to the dot. He seemed to be hedging his bets until the puck was about to cross the line.

This topic is OLD. A NEW topic should be started unless there is a VERY SPECIFIC REASON to revive this one.
