That said, if we had played with any of this intensity for any of the previous three games coming out of the COVID break, there wouldn't have been comments about psychology, and our 'Space board wouldn't have been as worried about trading and firing people. If they play like this and lose... yeah, pucks bounce and goalies steal games. But the energy, positioning, and puck-battles today have been wondrously better than their previous 4-5 games. 1 Quote
Thorner Posted February 20, 2021 Report Posted February 20, 2021 (edited) Eichel quietly to 12 helpers after 2 more today. Goal scoring is lacking but one side of his scoring is as prolific as ever. You know you have a true star when they are sitting at point-a-game production (14 in 14) and the consensus is, fairly, that he should be better. Edited February 20, 2021 by Thorny Of course, he may lose one if Reinhart gets the credit back for that goal. 2 1 Quote

Sabres Fan in NS Posted February 20, 2021 Report Posted February 20, 2021 We won that period too. Samson is a keeper. If we manage to tie the third period ... we win the game. Wow!! Quote

Once he read my post calling Olofsson better than him this season based on stats he said "the hell you say". Samson: Hold my beer! 1 1 Quote

And give Joker a chance to reset. He's been so messy this year, whereas last year -- sure, still a kid -- but he rarely looked rattled. Hopefully, he can get himself chilled and be a Joker the Toker and come back to move Irwin back to 7. (Risto could be weeks away, after all. Heck -- hope he's okay long-term. He was becoming the next form of himself.) 2 Quote

When was the last time we could even think about that? Quote
Nitro60 Posted February 20, 2021 Report Posted February 20, 2021 Let him cruise right in....Reinhart took a bad angle Quote
Sabres Fan in NS Posted February 20, 2021 Report Posted February 20, 2021 So far, so good. 40 seconds in is way to early for the *Miller shutout* goal. Quote
Carmel Corn Posted February 20, 2021 Report Posted February 20, 2021 (edited) Let's hope they don't go into a defensive shell, but rather keep doing what they did for 40 minutes. Keep rolling 4 lines to keep players fresh. Edited February 20, 2021 by Carmel Corn Quote
