GDT: Islanders at Sabres, Sat. 11/2/19, 7:00 pm

[...]

These last two games are just like the post 10-game run last year...they can not find luck to save their lives.

[Brawndo]

This is like playing the New Jersey Devils of old

PP needs to earn their paychecks here

What were you expecting, then to reenact the actual 70's with tons of blow, disco and hookers? (Not that I would mind said accoutrements)

Not to mention a few fights and possible bench clearing brawl by now

All you Dahlin haters, Dahlin has had an exceptional game...so far...for Dahlin.

Yup he's been solid tonight.

Gotta score here. Let's start trying to tee up Olofsson again. Funnel it through Dahlin.

Last year’s Dahlin is back tonight 

Yes he's been very good

[Randall Flagg]

I'll take it but I thought that was a silly hold call. there was about a tenth of a second where that arm was doing anything, the rest was a stick tie-up.

Not to take the draw away from Jimmy - good job going after the puck

[Ogrish]

Jack could use some of the heart and BALLS of these 60 yr old ex Sabres.

Have Dudley take him to the back of the locker room and give him a little attitude adjustment.

[Pimlach]

Wow.  Islanders are great at keeping our shots off their net.  We had a flurry of shot attempts but nothing got there.

That's what I've been trying to put my finger on. They seem so tight, you wonder if they're thinking, "Here we go again."

The refs owe us calls going back 5 periods.

They're fighting the puck out there.

It is kind of weird to watch.  Everything is going against them like someone had modified the Holodeck.  They are playing sound hockey, just nothing is going their way.

[Pimlach]

WE WANT 1 

[ubkev]

***** Jacques Lemaire with a ***** jackhammer!

Eichel needs a vacation already I think.

[Claude Balls]

Eichel can be so freaking maddening. Shoot the ***** puck!!!

[Pimlach]

All that PP pressure got us maybe 1 SOG. 

[GoPre]

Eichel was a little pass happy on that power play 

[Ogrish]

Jack holds the puck for 20 sec, not moving, while NO ONE ELSE IS MOVING

Awesome PP strategy

Wonder what the score would be if the Islanders showed just a wee bit of interest in this game. They look like they wanna go home.

[Ogrish]

Come on Krueger, fix this *****

Eichel was slow to reaction to the situations.  He should have passed the moment he got it, but instead was holding on to it.  He waits too long to decide.
