GDT: 12/31/2022, 1:00 PM ET: 🏒 Buffalo Sabres @ Boston Bruins; MSG, WGR

[FanaticSense06]

UPL is starting to give me confidence this team can make the play-offs this season, Looking like the goalie everyone thought he could be.

[DarthEbriate]

The Sabres' lone powerplay was gross, but otherwise that was a solid period of hockey.

Setting up for a great 3rd period.

Let’s see who’s got the better shortened bench.

Mostly because the Sabres don't have a big lead where they will "Defend the Alamo" and basically dump the puck out over and over while the other team comes at them time and time again all period long.

[Norcal]

Big third period coming up. 

Not for the team who's beaten the other team 14 of the last 15 and 8 straight at home.

For the Buffalo *****in Sabres!! 

One game blah blah but the boys need this win today!! 

Ohhhh for the days we are watching these games again in May or June! 

[Dreams Burn Down]

I like to see us come out of the gate attacking in the third. The rope-a-dope thing will bite us in the ass.

UPL is trying to prove Comrie needs to stay in the A.  How ironic would it be if the Sabres are the team trading away a goalie at the deadline.

They've had two gross power plays. The other came inside the first minute of the first period on a too many men on the ice call against the Bruins

[shrader]

So on that Krebs fight, shouldn’t the linesman have to answer the bell too?

[Believer]

Off to prepare the Au ju… for Beef on Weck… Taste of Buffalo in Sarasota 😎

[JohninMinn.]

Krebsy!

[triumph_communes]

I may dislike Krebs, but the attitude he had through that fight is as good as you can want going on 

[Norcal]

Krebs cut came from the ice hit, not the fight.

Win or Lose Do Not Cower and Lilt in the 3rd period. 

Show these ***** that the next 10 games of this series will be different than the last 10.

Anderson has been our most consistent goalie this season.

In small samples. He's  even a spot starter and still could.

Back in the olden days some players took boxing lessons in the off season. 

John Scott, as if he needed more of an advantage.

Holy mackerel this is a tense, exciting game.

UPL has shown up big time so far.

I think Krebs wants to be 3C someday.    Don’t know if he can with our C pipeline, but he should want that.  

Maybe the progression is put a young center on the 4th line with our energy guys (Okie/Girgs and/or whoever succeeds them) and toughen 'em up a little.  I could see Krebs moving up to 3C but I like him at 4C for the time being.

Keep attacking and for goodness sakes clear your zone boys!
