That Aud Smell Posted October 29, 2021 Report Posted October 29, 2021 Checked the raw corsi - it was like 56-54, in the Ducks’ favor. Which isn’t as bad as I’d feared. Go, Sabres!! 1 Quote

He might not make a play every time but he's sticking his nose in there and muckin ***** up all over the ice. That was his game when he was playing well at Vegas 4 Quote
Flashsabre Posted October 29, 2021 Report Posted October 29, 2021 The 3 rd period was a combo of the Sabres being gassed and the Ducks aggressively trapping in the neutral zone. They need Mitts back and to shift Cozens to RW. Cozens is struggling at C. Their structure is so much better under Granato. They don’t give up a ton of g,a ring opportunities even when they struggle. 1 Quote
LabattBlue Posted October 29, 2021 Report Posted October 29, 2021 As previously stated, this was the first game I watched in its entirety. Did not like Cozens with Skinner and Vinnie Barbarino. To me it reeks of not putting one of your young core in a position to succeed. Also, did not care for the Tage at center project. Didn’t seem to be any different than the Tage at wing project. That being said, it will be interesting to see how much gas Anderson has in the tank at 40? He was very solid. Quote

Tage has been playing very well at center. Don't let that game make your mind up. He has been progressing nicely. Almost blew a 3-0 lead but got the win in OT which was nice to see. This team is interesting...they shouldn't be winning like this but they are... 2 Quote

triumph_communes Posted October 29, 2021 Report Posted October 29, 2021 (edited) Two lucky wins in a row. Shininess has worn off. Last place here we come. They looked gassed but they didn’t look like they were on their heels. That’s a big deal to me. Hinostroza looks like a defensive liability. Edited October 29, 2021 by triumph_communes 1 Quote

GASabresIUFAN Posted October 29, 2021 Report Posted October 29, 2021 Dylan played only 10 minutes last night. Did he get hurt or was he benched for lousy play? Quote

Noticeably stronger on his skates. Edited October 29, 2021 by North Buffalo 2 Quote
WildCard Posted October 29, 2021 Report Posted October 29, 2021 Just saw the highlights, is Zegras as much of a monster as he appeared in the highlights? He seems incredible. Quote
SDS Posted October 29, 2021 Report Posted October 29, 2021 6 minutes ago, WildCard said: Just saw the highlights, is Zegras as much of a monster as he appeared in the highlights? He seems incredible. His play didn’t turn into points for the Ducks, which is what ultimately matters in his case. However, he was all over the ice last night, in stark contrast to Cozens, who has had a painfully quiet start to the year. 1 Quote

GASabresIUFAN Posted October 29, 2021 Report Posted October 29, 2021 “You don’t play or execute well but you find a way to get two points, you can’t diminish that,” Granato said. “And I won’t.” Nice comment from DG, but you know he can't be happy with the sloppy play. 2 Quote
