dudacek Posted January 26, 2022 Report Posted January 26, 2022 It was dirty, but not nasty if you get the distinction, and deserved 2 minutes for interference. Had Hagg done the same thing and Batherson hopped right back up we wouldn't be talking about it. But the NHL seems to care more about the outcome and the optics of a play than the play itself. 4 1 Quote
Mustache of God Posted January 26, 2022 Report Posted January 26, 2022 I'd like to see him suspended so we can bring up a 7th string goalie. Maybe we'll catch lightning with that one and spark a run to almost playoff contention. Quote
That Aud Smell Posted January 26, 2022 Report Posted January 26, 2022 Stupid and reckless play on his part. Apparently he has a history of ill-advised hits on skaters? Quote
pi2000 Posted January 26, 2022 Report Posted January 26, 2022 I'd give him 5 games, and make him skate out at the All-Star game as Batherson's replacement. Quote

As a fan I was livid. Yep half our player injuries were due to other teams dirty shenanigans. ***** em. Couple that with the Miller Lucic PTSD, I could not give one ***** about what Dell did. OTOH, I’d like them to suspend him for life so I don’t have to see him let in a bakers dozen every 2 games. 4 3 Quote
PerreaultForever Posted January 26, 2022 Report Posted January 26, 2022 If I were him, I'd be referencing this: and how nothing happened to Maroon, and talk about how the team can't afford any more goalie injuries so he felt he had to protect himself. It's not the same, I know, but I think it's relevant. What will work against him is he was out of the crease when he stuck the arm/shoulder out and the Ottawa guy is not a dirty player so he probably gets s suspension. Personally, I was fine with it. 1 Quote

There's a Bills thread for that though. I'm trying to get over the loss, don't need to be bringing it up everywhere. 2 Quote

IOW I don’t think he meant anything other than to knock him off stride. It certainly was dangerous and ill advised. I think it is 1-3 games worthy. I don’t think it was much either but he did interfere and the guy got hurt. If the league is going to make an example then it might as well a guy like Dell. Quote
Hawerchuk Posted January 26, 2022 Report Posted January 26, 2022 Well, at least the Sabres made up for it after this garbage from Chris Neil 2007. 15 years later 😄 1 Quote
Flashsabre Posted January 26, 2022 Report Posted January 26, 2022 (edited) “BY GAWD THAT’S MAT ROBSON’S THEME MUSIC AND HE’S HEADING STRAIGHT TO THE SABRES GOAL CREASE!!!!!!”😜 Goalie#7 come on down. A seriously stupid play by a bad goalie. What is with this with him? He ran out to hit some guy against the boards another game. It’s like he has given up on the stopping the puck part of the position and wants to be a thumper. Good riddance when he is gone. Edited January 26, 2022 by Flashsabre Quote

GASabresIUFAN Posted January 27, 2022 Report Posted January 27, 2022 I was hoping he was done the season. Aaron “Fog” Dell won’t be missed. Quote
dudacek Posted January 27, 2022 Report Posted January 27, 2022 Hope the means Robson gets an appearance. Has a team ever gone 7 goalies deep into their depth chart? Quote

Over the last 2 seasons the Sabres have used a whopping 9 different goalies, but 6 each season.

Believer Posted January 27, 2022 Report Posted January 27, 2022 Interference at best… At least Dell was still working trying to win… Hard to believe Granato gave the team the day off today after their humiliating effort last night… Unfathomable, really… In most of life, we are rewarded for good results… 1 Quote
Believer Posted January 27, 2022 Report Posted January 27, 2022 Starting to question the Sabres conditioning and rehab programs… All teams have injuries, but seems like we have more and rehab longer… I’m sure the data guys have stats on games lost to injury for each team and each player… Would love to see those… Quote
