GDT: Sabres @ Leafs 7:30pm, 3/2/2022, on 📺 and 📻

[LGR4GM]

Auston Matthews is on a tear and will be a force to stop. 4g, 5a in his last 5 games. 

Sabres need some depth scoring to win this one even though Skinner - Tage - Tuch is a very good line. Maybe our defense outside of Dahlin will show up. 

Projected lines based on yesterday's practice

Go Sabres

I hate the Leafs more than any other team. This edition of the Sabres will be in tough.

They need to bring an all out effort and get some key saves.

The Leafs defense is weak, their goaltending is fragile but they can score tons.

Let’s go Buffalo!

The Leafs have scored 3 or more goals in 16 out of their last 20 games. The four times they didn't score 3+ they lost. 

The Sabres have allowed 3 or more goals in 17 out of their last 20 games. The three times they kept the opposition under 3 they won.

I have a bad feeling about this.

Cozens will demand the D assignment and shut Matthew’s down. Matthews will need PP points to get in the scoresheet. 
 

Matthews wilts

Let's effing go, boys.

Maybe a nice entertaining game to watch as Leafs win 7-5.  Don't see how Buffalo's defense will hold up against the top two lines.

And yet, there are Sabres fans who hate Tampa freakin Bay more. 😂

Beating the Leaves is a great pleasure for me.

So this is post about Buffalo Sabre Rasmus Dahlin, quoting a tweet about the Washington Capitals, in the Leaf game day thread?  Am I the only one doing this?

There’s a certain kind elegance to the economy of words. Well done.

My cousin's step-son is Michael Bunting who is a really good player and may win rookie-of-the-year. I have  hated the Leafs for many years but do like seeing him do well. I liked Bunting when he played last summer for Team Canada overseas and had hoped the Sabres would sign him but he of course wished to sign with Toronto (he is from Scarborough which is a huge city within Toronto). I do however hope the Sabres kick the Leafs' a^^...
