woods-racer Posted November 13, 2021 Report Posted November 13, 2021 (edited) I really do not like Mathews. There's no logical reason why I have this animosity towards him. Everything I've read about him concerning his personal life he seems like a really decent guy off the ice. But still..... I would really like it if he got smacked into the boards heavily a few times and comes out of the game a -6. Oh, and given a really good face wash. I hate his smirk.

dudacek Posted November 13, 2021 Report Posted November 13, 2021 (edited) Stuart Skinner and Joseph Woll back-to-back. I can’t recall ever playing two goalies I’ve never heard of back-to-back. The string of goalies we’ve faced this season is a story unto itself. Edited November 13, 2021 by dudacek 3 Quote

Sabres Fan in NS Posted November 13, 2021 Report Posted November 13, 2021 I say we close the border to anyone from The Great Satan. Not just now becasue of COVID, but forever and always. MUST WIN!! GO SABRES!! While not in the same hatred league as the dastardly due, I really do not like anything about The Great Satan. 1 Quote
Zamboni Posted November 13, 2021 Report Posted November 13, 2021 Dell in net? well I was wrong last night. Glad I was. See if I continue the trend…. Leafs … 5 Sabres … 2 Skinner, Okposo, or Bryson with a goal. Quote
LGR4GM Posted November 13, 2021 Report Posted November 13, 2021 Title should be Toronto vs Buffalo, the visiting team comes first. 4 Quote

French Collection Posted November 13, 2021 Report Posted November 13, 2021 Does Cozens go head to head with Auston Matthews? According to Leafs fans Matthews is the world’s greatest. I hope Bryson messes up Nylander’s hair Let’s go Buffalo, we want two in a row, humiliate Toronto! 2 Quote
Digger Posted November 13, 2021 Report Posted November 13, 2021 (edited) What's the thoughts on Dell from his time with Rochester? I know he was playing better than UPL but how did he look? He seems like the weak link for tonight so hopefully he has a great game. I'm hoping the team can keep things going tonight in a back to back. We have been good at home this season though. Bryson and Cozens both played well with family at the game. Hopefully they are staying for tonight's game too. Sabres 5, Leafs 3 Edited November 13, 2021 by Digger 1 Quote

It will be interesting to see the Arena full (or close to it) if that is true. When was the last time we had a full arena for a game....1.5 years ago? almost 2 years ago? Quote

Or many of the Sabres fans who have been attending may have sold their tickets and it will be a half full arena of Leafs fans. Quote
