I wish we coulda had that power play. 

[Chris223]

Not enough pressure

And I can’t wait to see what he does to make up for it 

[Randall Flagg]

It's amazing that Dahlin put that right where only Sobotka could barely reach it. 

[Tondas]

Let's get out of this period just down 1.

[Chris223]

I really want to see us start smacking these guys around.  Tampa wants to play that kinda hockey show them we can too

[Sabel79]

We know how it's gone so far, but I don't think this tells us anything about how this game ends...

Of course he is, he was barely touched. Hard to vault yourself into a wall with any real damage, no human can do that knowingly.

Wrong player...Girardi got hit by Thompson on the knee

[hockeyhound]

Making Tampa pass earlier than they would like.

Let's Go Buffalo!

[darksabre]

This game was always going to be tough. I'm happy we have 2 goals. 

[Gatorman0519]

D cannot pinch when their first 2 lines are out there 

[Stoner]

Stupid play by Bogo.

[Randall Flagg]

That was a, er, high-event period. 

?

None of these goals have been on Hutton at all.

Expand  

He was not in a great position on the Kucherov shot. Hard to make a stop on a three on one but he left a massive opening over his shoulder. I’ll put that one 25% on him.

The second goal was 90% him. He was way out of position and gave up a rebound directly out front with an open net.

He’s had a few scrambles where he could’ve done a better job deflecting to the corner or controlling the puck.

Nah 

[dudacek]

LOL Bogo holding two guys!

Looking like Khal Drogo out there.

[Stoner]

And Beaulieu will be lucky if he doesn't get a roughing penalty.

[hockeyhound]

They're going to have to learn how to play with the big dogs.

Wow, Tampa can bring it.

Hutton seems fussy about his skates.

Might explain why he’s been out of position a few times

I was just saying to my friend that I wouldn't be surprised if the first 5v5 whistle of the 2nd period sees a 5-2 score.

He's always wiping the snow off them. Weird goalie habit, I'm guessing.

Why not? Blatant cross check with a few seconds left right in front of the ref.

[North Buffalo]

Tampa gets away with a lot of hooking and cross checks after the puck is gone.  Bogo sending a message, hope the Sabres keep hitting. Gotta take away Tampa’s legs and lungs. Jack didnt mean to hit Girardi that way but nervous hes gonna play timid.

[Stoner]

I wonder if Phil might consider putting Ullmark in as one of those "wakeup call" changes. Nothing against Hutton, really.
