Popular Post Flashsabre Posted October 26 Popular Post Report Posted October 26 (edited) Really impressed with Greenway’s play. McLeod as well. Bryam and Krebs seem a lot more confident right now. Regardless of results, Lindy has them playing hard, especially at home. It’s good to see. Keep it rolling. Getting Benson and NAK back will be big. IDK who sits, Kulich and Quinn? Lafferty. Nice to have some NHL quality depth. Cozens is still a mess. That icing right at the red line is inexcusable. One step and he was over centre. Edited October 26 by Flashsabre 10 Quote
Big Guava Posted October 26 Report Posted October 26 Sabres starting to put it together... That Dahlin pass on the shorthanded goal was just God Awful tho...reminded me of a play you'd see while watching pee wee hockey...just why would you try to make that pass in that position?? The fact they are starting to learn how to both score goals and play defensively well for the first time ever is encouraging 3 3 Quote

Could be playing Monday night for 1st place in the Atlantic. I genuinely don’t care about what place they are in at this time of the year. I just want to be entertained. So far so good. 4 1 Quote
Sabres73 Posted October 26 Report Posted October 26 I kinda wish I lived in Buffalo, because there's no way I wouldn't buy a ticket for Monday's game 1 Quote
PerreaultForever Posted October 26 Report Posted October 26 Good win and most important of all we didn't give them a loser point despite Cozens icing it because.....scared of contact/stupid/idk but it needs attention. PP finally scored and maybe the empty netter will kick start Quinn. Stranger things have happened to get guys out of slumps. A continuation of what we saw with Dallas, lots of good things, my biggest concern right now is the D is still weak on the back wall and they lose too many puck battles. We will need more forward help there if that keeps happening. Good way to start the day though (10 am hockey out here). 4 1 Quote

Stads Posted October 26 Report Posted October 26 A three game winning streak in October? It is still mind boggling we didn't do that until February last season 1 1 1 Quote

eman Posted October 26 Report Posted October 26 To me, this game seemed to show that Lindy is rubbing off on the players. Their breakouts, passing and positioning is much stronger than under Granato. Defense still has occasional lapses, but I'm sure that will get worked on. So far, nice to have Lindy back behind the bench. You can see the improvements. (just my opinion). Good move to ride UPL until he needs a rest. He looks like a bonafide #1 and he was winning. Keep going with what's working! Dare I let myself get excited about Sabres hockey once again!!! 2 minutes ago, nucci said: It's October But it's a better October than this fanbase is used to in recent times! I'll take it! 4 1 Quote

Why the change in home play is baffling I think Lindy's sets high expectations. I also think DG made excuses at times for his team youth and their "feelings", etc. They still need to get even better at home. Good teams feast on home games. 2 2 Quote
Night Train Posted October 26 Report Posted October 26 Great win but at the end I wondered why Cozens and Quinn were out there with the empty net . Would have thought a checking line would have been on. Kane has a wide open net and hits iron. Glad it went in the empty net but that wasn't the right players on the ice. 3 in a row. Amazing after the early start to the year. 1 Quote
mjd1001 Posted October 26 Report Posted October 26 I was in and out with the game, didn't see the whole thing. I missed a lot. What happened to Power? he's listed as only getting 10 minutes of ice time? Quote

Amazing after the early start to the year. If Kane hits the net instead of the pipe, you're absolutely correct. But that's not what happened. Cozens and Quinn have stuff to work on and a lot of it is confidence. Quinn getting that empty netter should boost his. 1 Quote

Sure, and two points in October has the same value as two points in February. But everybody is bunched up in the standings in the first months, if they lose two straight they could in the basement as well. I am looking for wins and consistency in their game. I am looking for more grit and more poise. They need to show us they have staying power and enough depth for the long season. It is early, but it certainly looks like they are playing much better.

You obviously don't understand how important winning streaks (and losing streaks) are for a team's confidence, especially early on in the year. Quote
