K-9 Posted March 9 Report Posted March 9 Just now, bob_sauve28 said: UPL is 1000 times better at shoot outs than earlier in season It’s his body control. It’s night and day compared to earlier in the season. Very little wasted movement now, unlike the total spaz moments he used to have when he’d flip and flop all over or leave the crease entirely when going from post to post. 3 1 Quote

Crusader1969 Posted March 9 Report Posted March 9 That was fun gonna give Tuch the benefit of the doubt - he's gotta be hurt. Seems everything is off but I think he cares Skinner after the short handed goal against should have been stapled to the bench. ...at least he wasn't out for the OT assuming Levi is the back up next year goaltending has quickly pivoted from weakness to strength Tage will be back to the 30+ scorer next season are there still haters of the 21 year old Power? He's looked excellent the last little while. Only going to get better 2 1 1 Quote
ska-T Palmtown Posted March 9 Report Posted March 9 Joseph Smith ... I turned off the ESPN+ game when they said they were going to the post game show ... all the players were off the ice. I feel like I stumbled into an alternate universe ... at least they won the SO ... yikes. 2 Quote

You could see this W from a mile away and I tweeted as much (forgot to get in this thread by the prediction cutoff line). Whenever we have an “uh oh, they are going to drop 7 on us!” game on the horizon we win it: the really good teams play down to the 25th place team when the season is winding down. I’m not sure how much more hard line evidence we need 1 Quote
Flashsabre Posted March 9 Report Posted March 9 (edited) Great wins today! Do they get 4 points?😃 Byram is going to be a game changer. I think Skinner’s time is up in Buffalo. I like Robinson’s game. How can they be this bad at faceoffs still? That’s on coaching. This coaching staff has to go. There are more than enough pieces here to be playoff bound. Power is super talented. He needs support and mentoring right now. Vancouver brought in Foote and Gonchar to revamp the Canucks back end. Edmonton brought in Coffey. I think Power needs a vet competent D partner and a coach that can help him develop. Dahlin-Bryam-Power is a great building block and with UPL coming on in net they should be so much better. It’s up to Adams to support these guys properly. Edited March 9 by Flashsabre 1 1 1 Quote
lothar Posted March 9 Report Posted March 9 Wow, missed the game and just read the full game thread: Summary of periods 1-3: Boring, Sabres suck, fire everybody but the new guy After the OT: Wow, that was a fun game Sheesh. 1 1 2 Quote

Watch his head when the puck is in close… Completely focused on the puck… Not the skater or the stick or the noise… It’s all puck… So impressive. 2 Quote

Do you find it strange that game threads would follow the same ebbs and flows of the games themselves? Stands to reason. The Sabres didn’t show up early and looked like crap after giving up the shorty to go down 2 zip in the first. We followed that up by missing golden chance after golden chance. It was frustrating to watch and I don’t think you can fault people for reflecting that in their posts. 2 1 1 Quote
