Also the official Flagg Sabres defenseman rating for this season is as follows:
1.) Jokiharju
2.) Gilmour
3.) Scandella
4.) The rest are tied 

Who on earth woulda predicted that 

To start the season Risto and McCabe were all the rage.  Then Scandy, now Joker and Gilmour.  

Long season with ebbs and flow.

Good Job Sheary!

Erod has gotta go.  Has heart but is not an nhl regular.

I would put VO on Mitts’s Wing. He won’t see the other teams top lines as much and it will give him a chance to learn to create space at the NHL Level during 5v5 Play 

Absolutely right,  he could help Mitts too.  He is not line 1 ready and gets too much ice on 5v5.

VO had a couple shifts with Mitts and Sheary a few games back and they almost scored like three times, I'd be down.

That’s why he just filling in for Vesey.

Sheary kept that series alive that led to the goal.

Battle Won!

Nice Job!

Let's Go Buffalo!

I was delayed and couldn't catch the game from the beginning.  I was going to watch it on delay but they I saw the score by mistake and figured I didn't want to watch that crap, so now I'm watching live.

So do we suck that bad, or has it been bad bounces or do we suck that bad or what?

[bunomatic]

Gilmour ! Was that Dougie ?

[Brawndo]

Oops 

[bob_sauve28]

Gilmour is something else. How do we keep him out of the line up?

He definitely needs off the top line.  He's totally invisible 5 on 5.

If the Sabres were the Bills, they'd be early in the Bengals game, ie the home opener, at this point of the season

Lazy play leads to a goal

[Pimlach]

Ugh.  Terrible clearing attempts.  

[hockeyhound]

Almost Larry!

[SABRES 0311]

Nice clear bud. Shake it off. Not like you have a habit of bad plays this year.

Start trading d-men for forwards and he can skate a regular shift.

[Torpedo Forecheck]

Soft plays to clear

[Gatorman0519]

Dahlin with another great defensive  play! Smh 

Edited November 2, 2019 by Gatorman0519

[Beer]

Staple Dahlin to the bench

[Pimlach]

I just want to win this period and get out of the funk.  

Very sloppy in our end right now.  

[Nitro60]

This team needs to learn to play physical in their own end.  Win battles along the boards.  And how to clear the zone smartly.  Washington is too good to make these bad and soft plays
