GDT:Sabres at Calgary Flames 10/20/22 9:30pm MSG, WGR550

[Billznut]

Calgary was one of the last two remaining undefeated teams left. Now with their loss to Buffalo, St Louis is the lone remaining undefeated team in the NHL at 2-0. 

[Norcal]

Comrie is good at anticipating high danger chances and has the reflexes to make the save alot of the time. 

This is the way! 

[Taro T]

Had the score right.  Fortunately in the wrong direction. ;)

Win Saturday in Vancouver then try for the clean sweep.

3 very winnable games when they go back home & then they host the Pens.  Fun times.

After two games on the road against two very formidable offensive teams, I feel okay in saying we have ourselves a goalie, lads.

I'd like to start keeping teams under 35 shots here and there. But the wins have been in regulation with earned empty-netters.

This team is going to be much better than most people thought. I still don't see them in the playoffs but my prediction of 87-90 points doesn't look at far fetched as a lot of people said before the season started

Not a lot of movement, good positional player

Buffalo didn’t turtle up this period. They survived the fluke goal late in the 2nd and early in the 3rd.

This is a good win.

Great point. A real character type win. Something to build on.

I always hear conflicting things on this. Does it need to be 3 in a row in the game in general or just for your team? I thought the former but you hear varying takes 

[Digger]

Great win, worth staying up for.  Very entertaining to be in the lead throughout the majority of the game.  Well done boys.

Next up Vancouver, winless in 5.  They are desperate.  No mercy.

I've always heard 3 in a row. No matter when they happen, just as long as they are b2b2b.

Maybe these two games was Donny's gamble to create a mystique around Young Eric.

[FrenchConnection44]

Just a really great offensive night. Still a bit careless and need to be a bit stronger but man, the youth and talent is there. High ceiling for this team.

Thats an 111 point team we beat, in their time zone on their rink

Interested to see if they are still that after their roster shuffle

[Flashsabre]

Great win!

Who had them sweeping Alberta?

Great game by Tuch. Staple him to Tage for the year.

Mitts had a hell of a game.

Dahlin is just the man.

Hinny is on fire. Hinny Cozens JJ needs to stay together.

Comrie is so calm. Doesn’t seem to get rattled. Sabres need to cut down on shots against but Comrie has been the real deal so far.

Boosh out, Joker goes down early. Ridiculous ref kick goal. Team didn’t fold. Signs of growth.

Real growth will not be letting down heading into Vancouver and Seattle.

Lets go Buffalo!

A natural cycle (which I saw live once) is single, double, triple, homer. So I'd figure a natural hattie would be penalty shot, shorthanded, even strength, power play. Which doesn't make sense.

Sleep well Sabres & Sabrespace!

Still real early to know for sure.  But if he can keep playing like this through Thanksgiving, oh, #### yeah!

But imagine how good he'd be if his confidence hadn't been destroyed I the preseason.  LOL!

When Mitts is playing with pace and confidence, it’s a beautiful thing.  It’s awesome.
