And all the hockey scenes would be wrong, and there would be a lame cameo from Jonathan Cheechoo or some crap. 1 Quote
Sabres Fan in NS Posted October 11, 2018 Report Posted October 11, 2018 5 posts thus far and only 2 of them are GDT related. I have a very good feeling about this one. I think the Sabres win big ... 5 - 1. Samson with 2 goals, Eich with 2 gaols and The Big D with his first in the NHL. Hutton with the Miller shutout. GO SABRES!! 1 Quote
SABRES 0311 Posted October 11, 2018 Report Posted October 11, 2018 (edited) Logo looks like it was made by a hippie from the 60s after a day in the desert with The Doors. Edited October 11, 2018 by RambosKnife Quote
... Posted October 11, 2018 Report Posted October 11, 2018 I guess we don't know the lines, yet, but we do know Bogo won't be playing. Curious to know if Larsson is playing and who might sit if he is. I also wonder if Ullmark will get to start at home before their trip. Quote

They've had 2 days off between games & Huttonis playing lights out. Unless he comes down w/ the flu this afternoon, really can't see him sitting. Haven't heard that Larsson is off IR yet. Hope not.

... Posted October 11, 2018 Report Posted October 11, 2018 What's the typical ratio of games for starter/backup? Quote
SabresBaltimore Posted October 11, 2018 Report Posted October 11, 2018 I'm hoping we continue the momentum tonight. The Rags and Knights both have negative Goal Differentials, but the AVs are currently at +3. They are 2-1, and both wins are at home. They are coming off a 5-2 loss in Columbus on Tuesday, so they will probably be looking to bounce back tonight. While I want to see Ullmark get some time in the net soon, I feel like Hutton is playing too well to play Ullmark before the Back to Back November 16th/17th. Quote
Samson's Flow Posted October 11, 2018 Report Posted October 11, 2018 I'm actually kind of bummed that I won't be able to catch this one (imagine saying that last few years). Picking up some friends from the airport after my volleyball league - so all you heathens root extra hard to make up for it. With the way Hutton has been playing, no way you sit him tonight. Save Ullmark for a game on the WC road trip - Kings Sat/Ducks Sun. Also - don't mess with the lines, especially the Eichel/Rhino/Sheary line and give the Skinner line a few more chances given the expected GF/60 from the fancy stats. Quote

While it can vary wildly from even to the #1 getting over 70 games, would expect them to split ~56/26 with the bulk of Ullmark's games coming during b-t-b nights. Quote
LTS Posted October 11, 2018 Report Posted October 11, 2018 Yea. I think Hutton tonight.. I could see Ullmark against the Yotes.. Looking forward to tonight... Quote

Also - don't backups *normally* play in away games saving the starter for home games if at all possible? Quote
Huckleberry Posted October 11, 2018 Report Posted October 11, 2018 Might catch a bit of this one tonight ? Quote

Sports can be amazing. I was going to ask which goalie you think will get the 56, but obviously you mean Hutton. Contrast with the conventional wisdom just after last season, when the thought was that Ullmark would get something like 60 games and they'd need a solid veteran backup for the rest. I wouldn't rule that out entirely based on Hutton's very impressive start. But clearly it's more than that. There's a reason he got the starting job. (I wasn't paying attention in preseason, so I don't know if that was Ullmark disappointing or Hutton being lights out or some combination.) Quote
Drunkard Posted October 11, 2018 Report Posted October 11, 2018 I actually like that Sabres logo better than the original/current one because it looks more 3 dimensional where the original one is completely flat. I believe the swords are the same ones used on the red thirds they used during the goathead era as well. Quote

Mustache of God Posted October 11, 2018 Report Posted October 11, 2018 If Casey & Tage are being relegated to the 4th line they should be in Rochester. Quote
