I corrected my original post...I can't tell from the replay if it was Benson or Norris that dropped coverage. Either way, it was one of the forwards.

You need someone willing to stand in front of the net. And with the PP designed around TNT taking a chest-high 95 mph shot, you don't have that person there. But with Zucker on the ice it works. So -- who can be that guy on PP2?

Just like Seth drew up.

Zucker willing to go to dirty areas.

Boom Zucker Ready for the rebound at the net

Good Evening Children of the ⚔️. Crashing jets - 1-1 just where we want them. Marquee Warts. Zuc. Now we give up 2?

Score!

Zucker on the doorstep!

ZUCKER

Didn’t see the first Sabres PP. 3 SOG Appert change anything?

Not allowed on this board.

Again! The Sabres need to make them pay.

Toews is too strong for Östlund at this point in their careers?

Look at the UPL highlights. He gave up a rebound on every single shot.

Fast game. Both teams are flying.

Just tuned in. Down 1-0 already? Sheesh.

Comrie bringing his A period so far. They need to keep throwing pucks at him.

A follow up to the Defensive positioning. Before the goal was scored, you can see Timmons stay with his guy, Bryam went to the boards (as a D-man could/should rather than a forward deep in the zone) and Benson (or was it Norris? I thought Benson but this says it was Norris) 'kinda' picks up the front of the net. In the next screenshot, Timmons is still with his guy (he played that exactly as he should). Byram was out of the play because he was circling back, but thats fine because he was coming back from the boards. Until Byram circles back, the Forward was covering the front of the net/Connon and he NEEDS to keep doing that. It was Benson who lost his guy. This one is not at all on the D-men. They did their job. Forward coverage made them look bad for all that are blaming Timmons/Byram.

Nice try PP....

With the Sabres PP there is no such thing as an opponent taking a bad penalty

Did Dahlin just have a chance by... not doing a drop pass on the PP? Or did he receive the drop pass and I missed it because watching the power play is often a good time to get a beer?

Our passes are so telegraphed on the PP. Tage is such a black hole on the PP. Dude just stands in the same spot every time

Biz criticized the d-men. Hank kept it at team defense and having the willingness to play it.
