GDT: Sabres at lightning 11-5-2022, 7pm WGR MSG

[Richard Noggin]

Just damn. 

[Doohicksie]

Blind pass up ice by Tuch was probably not the best idea.

[Thorner]

F***

[CallawaySabres]

Well that sucked, Comrie should be pissed. No closers again tonight. Speed with no close  is just another loss

[Wyldnwoody44]

Boosh has appeared to have a poor night, I also think with 26, we take this one.

Lets GO Boys!!!

Get this goal here, eh! 

Guess not 😒

[Gatorman0519]

Getting closer but this team is not ready to beat the juggernauts yet. Got to win some of these type games against these type teams if we are going to make the playoffs. 

[Claude Balls]

They ran out of gas after the Skinner goal. Just please beat Vegas and all will be forgotten.

[Norcal]

Betting Tampa knows they were in a game tonight. 

Sabres just didn't get the result. 

Keep at it boys.

[Doohicksie]

The end of that game leaves a bad taste in my mouth.  They played a good game considering but I really wanted to see them win this one.

Haven't seen the whole game but Thompson has felt invisible to tonigh (for when I've been watching)

He was.  Consistency is not there yet.

[Zamboni]

Hey we are undefeated if we score 5 or more  😂

Especially when playing a backup goalie. They may not have scored against Vasilevsky.

That sucked. I hope DG doesn’t confuse effort with results tonight and ease their collective psyches. This was unacceptable and he should let them know that in no uncertain terms. 
 

We’ve still got a long way to go in this league. 

[CallawaySabres]

Dropped below 8th seed, hopefully they can reenter at some point this season

[thewookie1]

So sick of how much ***** Tampa gets away with between slew footing Thompson or double hitting Power. 
 

They fought and clawed with one of the best but came up short on the back of a back to back against arguably the Top 2 in the East on the road.

[KC Scouts]

Can’t afford to give up a point (possibly 2) like that (players injured or not)

When are we going to play as rugged as they do ? It just seems like this was a boys vs men match up. Seriously, Fight back once in awhile!!

[OntarioSabresFan]

Well I guess we're not quite "there" yet. On the bright side the last 2 games were not blow outs. They have progressed. Also keeping in mind our injuries on D. What do you make of Comrie? Some good saves, one (or 2?) weak goals. So frustrating. 

[Thorner]

7-5 still a playoff pace generally (96), and that's after 2 losses. 

Biggest thing is getting Dahlin back quick hopefully it's just this one game 

[Spoonman]

I honestly feel like the youngins are learning. They need to continue to grow under Donnie,  Seth, and their staffs. They are going to get better. We see that. Add to that 4 starting D out tonight, 3 yesterday. Note to self: Patience my young (he he) Padewan.

Boosh played out of necessity IMO, w Dahls out.

Injury bug not helping.

[Believer]

Good team effort… Comrie came to play… Top line stymied except for the Skinner goal… Not intimidated… Better physical play… Game could have been a win with a breakaway goal by Skinner… No quit

[John Tucker]

Unfortunately, it was only a matter of time before the bad luck and losses start piling up.

He was playing well until he forced that faceoff early in the 3rd.  Not sure if he retweaked the leg injury there or just got too gassed, but he wasn't the same after that.

[Doohicksie]

I thought Clague played well again.
