Samson's Flow Posted January 2, 2019 Report Posted January 2, 2019 Since we have been in such a funk, I am going to try my hand at starting the GDT thread in order to change our luck around. After dropping games to both the Blues and NY Islanders, this Panthers game becomes even more of a MUST WIN if we want to keep holding on to playoff positioning. Practice report lines from last practice - expect Eichel is out for a bit with an Upper Body Injury. 1 Quote
Samson's Flow Posted January 2, 2019 Author Report Posted January 2, 2019 I'm an idiot. It's Wednesday - the game is tomorrow. Nothing to see here... (closing until game day) Quote
Samson's Flow Posted January 2, 2019 Author Report Posted January 2, 2019 By request of D4rk, opening it back up to change up the juju. I'll stop talking to myself now. Quote
darksabre Posted January 2, 2019 Report Posted January 2, 2019 ? I like the move of starting the GDT a day early. Normally it's against the "rules", but we need to get a little hype going. I vowed after the last Florida game that I would never watch another Florida game because they are always awful TV. I will be honoring my vow and taking this game in via radio only. Quote

I can't quit these guys and I remember the joy and enthusiasm that I had during the winning streak. I don't know what to expect from the team without Eichel tomorrow night. They looked like hot garbage without the captain - we will see what the practice lines from today look like as an indication. I'd like to see ERod centering the top line to give him a chance. Quote

Sabres Fan in NS Posted January 2, 2019 Report Posted January 2, 2019 I hope this ends well. NS approves of this move, but that does not matter at all. Quote

And I'm stupid and superstitious, so maybe that's a good thing. I've watched or listened to the last few. Hmpf. Quote

Maybe this works as well, as I skipped the Bills game on Sunday to catch the Beauts game, and both ended up being strongly in Buffalo's favor (4-0 Beauts; Bills squish the fish convincingly). 10 minutes ago, Brawndo said: Looks like Pilut is back in I was right that ERod gets his chance with the top line. I think he has looked good the last few games. Also looking for Tage to continue his strong play from the last few games. As he gets more opportunity he is playing with more confidence in the offensive zone. Quote
Sabres Fan in NS Posted January 2, 2019 Report Posted January 2, 2019 Is there actually a rule that says we can't start these until the day of the game? Hogwash, I say. Let's make this the best damn GDT ever!! +++++ Aaaaaayyyyyyyyy ... Ooh!! Quote

R_Dudley Posted January 2, 2019 Report Posted January 2, 2019 Also In early to break the Funk. Yes a must win 3 days into the new year because of the way we closed out last year. 1 Quote
Derrico Posted January 2, 2019 Report Posted January 2, 2019 As long as NS doesn't start the GDT I don't care how early it gets started ;) 1 Quote

spndnchz Posted January 2, 2019 Report Posted January 2, 2019 DEAR HOCKEY GODS. Forgive him for what he has done. Also really confusing when you have two pinned GDT’s on a back to back. Quote

CallawaySabres Posted January 2, 2019 Report Posted January 2, 2019 Should be really fun as we drop to 9th tomorrow night and look up at teams that we never thought would catch us. The question now is would you rather take 9th or just continue to drop. Playoffs are dead as all the teams that are ahead are miles in front of Buffalo talent-wise. Quote

Oh, Mr. Flow, when you start a GDT you better be sure to get the date right, even if it is a day early. And I am being lambasted here ... LOL!! Quote
