For being a "fast" team, we don't play with any speed or attack.

Is it a fast team?

++ Fast team? You've never heard of the 2021 Buffalo Sabres? It's the team with Eichel, Hall, Rieder, and Eakin. It's fast enough to look super slow.

"Oh, and remember, the goal of all this is to set up an easily picked off centering pass."

Sorry, Edited to say "cross ice pass." Saying centering pass would imply that there was a man in front of the net.

Both teams are sleepwalking. But the Sabres are really dragging.

What a horrible shift from Skinner.

Two blown exits, and he managed to be the last one up and the last one back on every rush.

Must be rusty

Those chips and no look passes off the wall are ridiculous too

[Pimlach]

Hall does not look like a goal scorer anymore.  Flubbed a backhand

Am I doing it right?

Another stormtrooper tried to tell Bryson to use his reverse thruster his power coupling, but the ship transmission hit some space rocks asteroids.

Good battle in the corner by Skinner to win possession that his linemate flubbed 

[Norcal]

Skinner is def loafing 

[Stoner]

The sport of hockey is considering filing a restraining order against this game.

Just won a puck battle by initiating contact 

[Doohicksie]

So much clutching and grabbing by the Flyers which isn't being called.

Immediately followed by lackadaisical effort and slow skate for a change

That was the same shift he flubbed a good pass from Mitts and turned the puck over on another exit and on a board battle?

 

Skinner another flubbed exit.

Yup. 

But as those things were already being pointed out I felt obligated to introduce some balance to the conversation 

[SwampD]

These refs are bullish!t.

[French Collection]

One more step Risto, come on!

[dudacek]

A missed shot, but that will look good on his Corsi

[Thorner]

Good chance from Jeff

Lol one note 

[Norcal]

Better effort there from Skinner

[John Tucker]

What a snoozefest

[Stoner]

Skinner backhands one wide. Scoring chance though. If only his luck was better.

 

[French Collection]

PP, let’s go!

Haven’t liked them today 

[DarthEbriate]

Even the Flyers announcers are agreeing there should be a couple penalties against the Flyers, missed hook, etc.  Nice pass from Mitts to Skinner. But Skinner doesn't use his speed soon enough to turn it into a quality chance.
