Have Pens had a scoring chance? 

Hell, they haven’t been in Buffalo zone at all

[Believer]

Our forwards are really forechecking and playing a wall game tonight… Impressive…

[Carmel Corn]

Mule with a broken stick

[Believer]

Ok… Special Teams… 

[Brawndo]

NICE PK

[bob_sauve28]

Way ti survive!! 

[steveoath]

Great PK.

[Dreams Burn Down]

They didn't look like the bottom of the league on that kill.

[Carmel Corn]

Great save by Anderson on Carter's shot

[Believer]

One great Sabre period…

[Amaru523]

That may have been one of the greatest penalty kills I've ever seen. 2 guys with broken sticks are you kidding me.

UPL’s .697 save percentage on the PK might have a little to do with it

[Cityo'Rasmii]

Mule knocks Cindy on his backside...and Cindy cries

[Pimlach]

I think we dominated 5v5.  Still no know how we survived their PP though.  Andy came up big!

Ok, just not liking the Uni’s.  White pants not good. I tried to like these things. Just can’t 

[Gatorman0519]

Love the effort. Keep it up boys!

[Thorner]

These uniforms are an eyesore 

Cozens playing against his soon-to-be-future-self in Jeff Carter (rather, what Carter was in his prime)

Whoever made the “we need more blocks” thread is basking right now 

[Dreams Burn Down]

The play more calm and composed defensively in front of Anderson.

If Cozens is compared to Carter, that would be a great outcome!

Can easier predict where rebounds will go. His veteran positioning is a huge boon 

[grinreaper]

When players around the league watch that kind of play they'll be calling their agents and asking them to take the Sabres off their no trade lists.

So interestingly, on posted lineup, they are 4th line. Maybe Meatballs is trying to take pressure off in that spot? They HAVE been getting the least minutes already. I DO like Jost - I think he is helping.

That was Heather Engel's lines, NOT the lines put out by the Sabres.

She also thinks that Quinn is the RW & Peterka is the LW on the Cozterkinn line.  Not the case; they play their off wings.

The Sabres, as they have every game since Joisey have the Mittelstadt line listed as the 3rd line.  Through the 1st period, for the 1st time since Joisey they seemed to be played as the 3rd again.  Yes, his was the 4th line in reality the last few games but per the Sabres it was the 3rd.

Thanks for defining your meme. I wouldn’t have gotten the reference without it.

DOH meme. Infers a realization that I was a poo poo head.
