FanaticSense06 Posted January 2, 2023 Report Posted January 2, 2023 (edited) Going to need the players that only played around 13 minutes last night like Quinn, JJ, Mittelstadt and Olofsson to do something this game because Tage Thompson, Tuch, and Skinner all had close to or more then 20 minutes of TOI last night, Tage had over 22 minutes. On back to back nights this is when you need your depth to step up and win us a game versus a not so great team. Edited January 2, 2023 by FanaticSense06 2 1 Quote

DHawerchuk10 Posted January 2, 2023 Report Posted January 2, 2023 What’s up with Thompson? There is patience, and there is holding the puck too long with indecision. He’s been plagued with this for a few periods now. 2 Quote

Ya definitely a new bad habit of his, just stops with the puck in the offensive zone and just stands there hoping something opens up, he needs to keep his feet moving and MAKE something open up with movement. 1 1 Quote
North Buffalo Posted January 2, 2023 Report Posted January 2, 2023 (edited) Slow moving the puck too much fiddling... need move their feet hopefully Donnie rips them err encourages them to grow a pair. Edited January 2, 2023 by North Buffalo 2 2 Quote
grinreaper Posted January 2, 2023 Report Posted January 2, 2023 TNT seems to be trying too much on his own lately. It's as if he thinks that he can consistently stick handle the puck through 3 guys. 1 Quote
SwampD Posted January 2, 2023 Report Posted January 2, 2023 Given the circumstances, 1-0 is fine. After their loss yesterday, Ah'Twah came out charged up and scored early. The Sabres came out a little flat after their big win yesterday and held them off, for the most part. Let's see who these teams are in the second. 2 1 Quote
grinreaper Posted January 2, 2023 Report Posted January 2, 2023 Dahlin did remind me a little of #11 when he drew that penalty. 2 1 Quote

Reminds me of Mr. Glass himself, Jack Eichel. He would sit on the half wall until someone just took it away. Two differences are I think TT will correct this and TT doesn’t crank his neck looking at the rafters. Strategy for the second period: get the puck to Dahlin. Wash, rinse, repeat. 2 Quote
DarthEbriate Posted January 2, 2023 Report Posted January 2, 2023 The league has the book on Tage, even though only a few teams have the tenacity, defensive centers, and wherewithal to make it happen. Pressure him everywhere as soon as he has the puck. His reach is a great weapon, but it's also a stickhandling liability. If you take away all the space you can force the turnover. Tuch and Skinner need to help carry the puck and keep their spacing so he has room and a bit more time. (And TNT himself needs to skate and move the puck quicker.) He has to adjust to the League's adjustments. 3 1 Quote
Cityo'Rasmii Posted January 2, 2023 Report Posted January 2, 2023 We've sure seen Mitts crank his neck and look at the rafters a myriad of times, ugh Let's get our legs going in the 2nd go Sabres Quote
SABRES 0311 Posted January 2, 2023 Report Posted January 2, 2023 I agree with everyone saying they need to get in front of the net. I don’t see perimeter shots getting it done. Quote

Amaru523 Posted January 2, 2023 Report Posted January 2, 2023 This seems like one of those games where scoring is going to seem impossible. Quote
