What are they going to do, bench $55 million dollars worth of players and call up rookies? They hitched their wagons to these guys. We get to deal with the repercussions. Yay us. At some point even benching them for a few minutes may get the message across, the way Power is playing right now with no repricussions when he makes mistake after mistake just rewards failure imo. Same goes for any player that isn't getting the message across. 1 Quote

Pimlach Posted April 6 Report Posted April 6 5 minutes ago, Archie Lee said: He would hold all of them accountable. The only players Granato holds accountable are rookies and Olofsson. True. But at this point, this group of Sabres still lack accountability from within. It’s time to see the leaders from the core emerge. They could use an infusion of dare I say “vets in their prime”. That just doesn’t happen easily for the Sabres apparently 3 minutes ago, Slack_in_MA said: Third period strategy needs to be "when in doubt, shoot". Yes. Play in Philly’s zone and shoot da’ puck.

Brawndo Posted April 6 Report Posted April 6 18 minutes ago, inkman said: I think it’s more like Philly is trying, Buffalo isn’t. I don’t see any strategy to it. The Sabres seem to struggle for the past two seasons against Philly with Torts behind the bench Quote
Gatorman0519 Posted April 6 Report Posted April 6 The Flyers goaltending collapsed their season. Quote
Flashsabre Posted April 6 Report Posted April 6 I really like the idea of Benson-Quinn So much hockey IQ and talent between those two Quote

What does Vets in their prime mean? Quote

Slack_in_MA Posted April 6 Report Posted April 6 2 minutes ago, inkman said: Yes. The Sabres struggle against teams that try. Especially "heavy" teams that try. Love the 3-1 lead, but it's going to be interesting to see how they handle the inevitable heavy game coming in the third. Quote
Stoner Posted April 6 Report Posted April 6 I don't get why Dan has to say stuff like The Sabres are looking for a goal here... Flyers are looking to tie it up. Duh. Quote
Doohicksie Posted April 6 Report Posted April 6 I loved the way Benson made a play at the blue line, knew his shift was up and sprinted to the bench. Kid never coasts. 3 Quote
inkman Posted April 6 Report Posted April 6 I know getting pucks to the net is an age old hockey adage but when there are 3 opposing players standing directly in front of your and you still decide to try to squeeze it through, your name is Jeff Skinner. 1 Quote

Hence the quotes. It could mean what you imagine it to mean. Quote

Slack_in_MA Posted April 6 Report Posted April 6 Can someone help me understand our obvious philosophy on not taking the body or taking it very sparingly? What is the theory? 1 Quote
