‘Skinner’s second period goal was pretty much the only dangerous chance the Sabres created in the first 40 minutes as some of the things I was watching were concerning. First, players weren’t around the net making it easy for Hill. Second, I watched too many players turn off battles making things pretty easy on the Sharks. That’s the way this team used to play and it usually doesn’t under Granato. You can come in on the forecheck and do a drive-by past the defenseman.’
