Goaltending has been fixed, I can’t wait until we no longer have the worst D in the league

Adam's has to address it, and on a serious scale. No half-assing it, by FA or trade, the defense has to be fixed I agree.

Bryson on the ice for that one....sigh, why is he playing?!?!

I hate Bryson but that goal was on Boosh not Bryson.

Critical error by Donny imo. 

It wasn't because of a Stillman injury?!? Thats just a terrible call.

Like I said nothing against him - and that was awesome but up to now I couldn’t see not getting that line back together in a must win down 2.  
 

Casey has definitely arrived.  

He’s really benefitted from the line changes. He’s a much better passer than scorer. 

That said, he needs some improvement.

1. He doesn’t have a strong shot. Or deadly accurate. Has to get stronger on the shot. 
2. He has to get stronger and more physical. Both on face offs and in general. 

I think he can do both and become a real positive for the team. But still has some off season work to do.  

I was down on him early but he’s proven me wrong.

"Bryson battling with his man in front"? You can't actually think he did a good job there Razor

 

Stillman would have had his guy on the ice!!

Need two more defenseman this off season that know how to clear the net and pK.

[Randall Flagg]

I expected a goal from that Tage pass and Cozens didn't even get a shot off

I didn’t hear about an injury but maybe?

[MBD]

Playing back to back is bad enough, but that game went to a SO.  Not surprised at this result.

DG says its most important game of the year and then you dress a guy who is a -24 on the year and can't play against the bigger forwards on NJ. Dumb move DG!!

Stillman played a long 6 minutes last night.  
 

I don’t get it.  

I never want to see 46,10 and 78 play again for this team. Absolutely PUTRID

Bryson and Boosh get overwhelmed. 

Yes.  Dahlin played 30 minutes the other night.  Power 25.  

 

We really need to upgrade 2 defenseman in the offseason.

Damn… Hard to fathom why Granato benched Stillman in favor of Bryson tonight… Stillman was part of all the recent games and points… More physical… Who breaks up the magic of a streaking roster??… Have to believe it was analytics and not a DG hunch…

Keep driving… Keep shooting… 

and maybe defend a little in our zone too please.

[WhenWillItEnd66]

We need to be within 1 before the third.... or we are done.

Analytics are not fans of Bryson 

[FrenchConnection44]

Man. We need serious improvement on D. both our defenders were packed in and checking no one. Need better coaching and discipline. And … 
 

A free agent defenseman has to be the priority in the off season.  

[Pimlach]

We really need another goal before the period ends. 

[Sabres73]

I would have put Clague in instead of Bryson. At least he's a little steadier

Unless Stillman is hurting?

Then it was a horrid hunch… I’m superstitious… 

[Carmel Corn]

PING!

[Billznut]

Ugh post

[Gatorman0519]

I would like a quality vet forward and a vet defenseman is a must in the off-season. 

[Scottysabres]

COME ON BOYS!!!!

[ExWNYer]

Damn, Dahlin hit the post. Really needed that marker.

Could be… Good point
