GDT: Bruins (booooo) visit keybank center. 6pm FO. MSG-B, NESN.

Dahlin needs to shoot that.  
 

36 almost made a fancy move 

[SABRES 0311]

Malenstyn destroys his man. Östlund with a nice move to draw a penalty.

[Bangarang]

It's pretty obvious early on that we don't have it tonight. 

[pi2000]

That's on UPL, horrendous.

I've seen enough.

Calgon, take me away!

They are going to erupt.

UPL out of position on the goal ..who would have guessed.

John Young fixed the rink, Rayzor with the call.  

[SABRES 0311]

Ref forgot there was a penalty.

Can't remember the last time I saw that in an NHL game.   Usually it takes both linesmen to miss that as they signal each other on icings.

Krebs is fun to watch. Always high energy. Even when he’s spinning out of control.

Can someone plug UPL’s Controller back in

[Sidc3000]

The real Quinn just stood up

[jad1]

They need to bench Quinn to rest him up for the shootout.

[Pimlach]

Sabres too fancy.  Too many passes. 
 

UPL out of position again. 

[Pimlach]

Krebs shoot that puck boy. 

[Brawndo]

2-0

[Sidc3000]

[SABRES 0311]

Why? Why can’t we have nice things?

[Sidc3000]

Sabres are fine faking it. They know if they lose tonight, it’s over

[Pimlach]

UPL missed it. Ugh 

[jad1]

Just checked the standings to see the Bruins are below the Sabres.  Now this game makes sense.

[Stads]

UPL bad, but turnover also bad. That's my caveman analysis 

[mjd1001]

On the first goal, I don't put that one on UPL.

As much as I don't like UPL's play lately, he was playing the shooter which is what I want him to do on that first goal.  I don't think he was out of position, the rest of the team was.

About 3 seconds before the goal was scored (see picture and diagram below), Boston had 2 guys open and uncovered on the near side of the ice.  ALL 5 Sabres players were on the far side of the ice, every single one. 

I can't even blame the D-men, once the D-man goes into the corner to chase the puck (he should), his partner shades over to the center of the ice (he should). Its on the Forwards to take the upper near wing. The forwards didn't do that.

That first one's not on UPL, its on the other 5 guys, mostly the forwards in my opinion.

Now the 2nd goal, to me that is all on UPL, you have to stop that, no questions asked.

JJP with the giveaway, now 2-0.  Muel was as slow as a mule reacting to the turnover.  Quinn not able to prevent the shot.  UPL looked asleep on that one too.
