So I guess there won’t be any more power plays tonight, wow

Doesn’t seem to be much of a push here. 

Our strength is the PP and we should be on it.

Reality is a hard pill to swallow.

Refs must have early dinner plans.  I'd rather have the refs call everything.  Buffalo's not good enough to win 5x5.  They are good enough to win the special teams battle though.

Sure, and he's going to make mistakes while he gains experience.  Management has to balance his development with the needs of the team, though.  They also owe it to the rest of the team to manage his ice time when he's struggling. 

Dahlin has been getting third pairing minutes for most of the season

Do not expect Cozens to be an impact player next year. He will be a 3rd liner 

Yeah we have many years to go yet.

He might need to be benched now and then, or spend a game in the press box, and there's nothing wrong with that.

[bunomatic]

This ones over. Another heavy team tomorrow in the Islanders. 

[Sabres Fan in NS]

I'm pooped.

NS out ...

Sabres mount a huge comeback in ... 3 ... 2 ... 1 ...

Not happening.  Sleep well, my friend.

Usually when the Sabres are defending a lead he is on the bench. When they are tied or losing he plays more for his offense 

[bunomatic]

It lives !

someone drove to the net

[Thorner]

That's a brutal miss from Jack 

[triumph_communes]

Can’t miss that oye 

[Brawndo]

Poor Linus 

[Pimlach]

Terrible PP.  No one will possess the puck long enough to set up a play.  

 

And they score 6 as I type. 

[Randall Flagg]

I don't really have the words to describe it properly, but the level at which teams like the Caps transition is something the Sabres are far, far away from.

You can tell that Johansson has experience with it, and that he's the only Sabre to have it 

[Doohicksie]

[bunomatic]

I thought I’d be used to this shite from this team.

the shine is wearing off. 

[Fishtree]

Do we have to play the rest of the game?

Can't we just go "Hey Caps, we'll spot you three more goals and everyone can go home?"

[dudacek]

Not enough to just be there Samson.

[Thorner]

Really weak effort from Sam with his man in front. 

Haven't liked the top line one bit tonight

And probably an improvement in that role for us.   

[triumph_communes]

Reinhart sucks
