The way he is twitching has increased with each round, even at the facoff dot. I don't remember that here at all. It's called intensity.

They lose in OT. On to the next. Good, can’t stand the Rangers. Wish someone would lay out the bread man! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwampD Posted May 29 Report Share Posted May 29 10 hours ago, PerreaultForever said: It's funny how much players change when they leave Buffalo and become immersed in a different culture. Reinhart hitting back against Trouba end of the game, you'd never have seen that here, never did, and then the intensity and emotion in the OT. Don't ever remember a look like that in his eye on any night here. ex-Sabres on Florida all playing well, go figure. My guess, matching Rangers dressing Wheeler (who took the OT penalty no less). Old vet for old vet. False narrative alert. We saw that here. Sam never shied away from this kind of stuff and was always the first one in when something was going down. This is just not true. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In addition, he was one of the smartest players that has ever warn the Buffalo uniform. He left Buffalo as one of our best players. The primary difference between when he was with Buffalo compared to Florida is that he is playing with better players. The Sabre front office has made a telephone book number of mistakes that has kept this franchise mired in the muck of mediocrity. Not signing him when it had the opportunity to do so was a hideously bad decision. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But he was willing to go there and he was crafty and probably had the best hand/eye coordination of any of the Sabres skaters from that period. Arguably, he had the best hand/eye of ANY Sabres skater. He could get the stick on durn near any shot close to the net. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Face offs and players who know how to maneuver in the tight and punishing spots around the net are two of those deficiencies. We could sure use a player like him on this roster. It's really frustrating to see so many former players playing for Cup contending teams. It's sad and happened because of our own organizational ineptitude. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’d be an all star regardless but he’s completely elevated to a different stratosphere due to McDavid. Bouchard is the far and away third leading scoring in these playoffs. McDavid effect hasn’t stopped Leon from refusing to where his mouth guard at any point. Pure chew toy accessory - - - when I see the oilers ahead it bugs me, when I see the stars ahead it bugs me.

\GoBillsInDallas/ Posted May 30 Report Share Posted May 30 The sad thing is that you watch these four teams and realize just how far the Sabres are from being even remotely competitive in today's NHL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure, and Jack didn’t play defense until Cassidy, and ROR wasn’t who he was until he went to the Blues. We’ve heard it all before and it’s just not true. I don’t need to make up things to hate the Sabres, there are already plenty of actual reasons. And I don’t do memes. If you don’t believe that you are wrong after me telling you twice (now, thrice), me showing you a picture isn’t going to do it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
