GDT: Wild @ Sabres - Nov 10, 2023 - 7:00pm, MSG-B/ESPN+📺WGR📻

[...]

What a difference a legit goalie makes for this team.

[Believer]

Escaped with the lead.

[DarthEbriate]

Cozens hasn't been right yet this season...  but I do like the Concept of Savoie/Rousek - Cozens - Quinn as a 3rd line in the back half of this season.

Or any team.

Hey, I am here and we are winning 😀

I'm going to start a "send scottysabres to all the home games" gofundme 🤣

F'n Cozens

Every faceoff he’s taken he winds up face first on the ice.  I realize his face is broken, but what the hell has happened to him this year?!?!

If there weren't, the Sabres would've made the playoffs and won a few Cups in the preceding decades.

Hope this kid gets paid by Roku.

1. The PP needs to be scrapped and rebuilt from scratch

2. Levi has played very well

3. I want the ice redone, I have never seen teams have so many issues with puck handling as they seem to have here. Its likely at least some of issue our team has with over shooting passes.

[Pimlach]

Duffer and Marty are excellent. 
 

Ok Sabres, win the third and win the game.

And just as the big line was reunited and looking good. Cozens looks discombobulated with them. JJP also with a couple communication gaffes tonight on the newly made 3rd line. They need another day of practice together with all the shuffling.

Too much shuffling, but injuries driving it. 

[JohninMinn.]

Face-offs

Min 79%

Buf 21%

Playoffs? Playoffs? 

Too Tall Tage 0 For 6

 

[Broken Ankles]

Run three lines in the third.  Staple Krebs to the bench.  Give Savoie a shift or two in Cozens place.

Mix up the lines.  Rotate Cozens and Jost.  

Cozens cannot be on the ice w/ PP1 to start the period.

Pray for good puck luck.

I know there is a separate thread on this topic, but IMHO our coaching staff does not know how to fix this PP.  This isn't a new problem either.

that’s when the fun begins 

[Pimlach]

Calling on Skinner, Tage, Mitts and Dahlin to carry this.  Time to close this out in the 3rd.

A psychiatrist could fix this. They need confidence.

That is a Harry Nilsson song the keep repeating (on ESPN+). 
 

Great artist.

PP issues

1) zone entry is terrible

2) can’t win a draw

3) slow puck movement

4) lack of forward talent on 2nd unit

5) lack of creativity on the PP

Sabres putting their 31-0-4 record when leading after 2 periods on the line...

I think you mean #2 is "can't win a draw"

Everybody is talking to me.  I can’t hear a word they’re saying.

[Slack_in_MA]

Keep pucks on net. Play with intention!

[Pimlach]

MAF -  I wish we could have got him when we needed rebuild help. 

Mike Foligno.  Great Sabre.
