I had no problem with the penalty. I have always hated the idea of "put the whistles away and let them play." A penalty is a penalty no matter when it happens and it’s not like it was a borderline judgement call. He did tackle the guy.

Haven’t seen helenius play. What type of a player is he?

Damn man I was just thinking Cindi Time after time

I'd toss Zeimer in there as well.

With Benson and Helenius they might already have started changing culture.

I liked the Landeskog fairy tale story better than the Rantanen revenge tour but what can you do. He certainly came alive and stuck it to them. The late penalty was bs though. That was most definitely not a late game tied game 7 playoff call. Hated that. Guess the refs feared a long overtime and wanted to go home.

If Dallas gets Robertson and Miro back they will be the favorites to win the Cup

I'm not doubtful. I'm sure he's not.

Probably but a bit trickier. He is the local boy so he might want to stick it out. Maybe. Likely not though.

FIFY

I can understand Colorado’s frustration. Not the sort of call that is typically made, tied with 4 minutes left in game 7. Incredible game though.

No love for the Stars, but I’m fine with this year’s version of the Avalanche blowing a two-goal 3rd period lead to lose in regulation. My cold Sabres heart was temporarily warmed.

I watched the full game too. Martin got the 2G, player of the game (Ivankovic should have got it) and led Team Canada at +4. They haven't updated it, but I think he'll get the tournament lead at +15. I wanted to see him get the hat trick, but TBH he seemed disinterested... I thought he was coasting from about the 5-0 mark. Not sure if that's a cause for concern or a pro given the team had the game won and he's team first? Edit: Here's the final +/- leaders.

Rantanen with a Hatty in the 3rd. Talk about a trade backfiring. Wow.

Rat put away the Avs.

Yeah, I’m not trying to go against the stars just because I definitely don’t like them as most Sabres fans don’t, but that seemed very unfair to do that with five minutes left in the game seven. If I’m an Avs fan, I’m losing my sh*t rn. Colorado’s coach probably could get fired here now. I’d be just beside myself if I’m one of the avalanche players.

Rat says take that.

Not only that, but then Drury just got cross checked without a call. It was a fine game without the stripes, but Alas, they need to get some attention.

Anyone else think that penalty call was a bit questionable? Especially at this time in a game seven. I feel like it would have to be something absolutely egregious to make that call with five minutes left.

Avs collapsing.

Rantanen revenge tour

Wow....Rantanen delivers in the clutch

You’re absolutely right but you have to start somewhere and he would be a good add to start to build towards that type of culture. Martin isn’t a superstar talent. If he turns into a Peca that would be big. From the talent in the Sabres pipeline I think he would be a good fit as someone that drags his fellow players into the fight.

Adding a Zucker-like player doesn't mean that player is a top two-line player. So, adding a top two line player in addition to a Zucker-like player is doable considering the assets this team has. As an example, trading Byram in a package deal could bring back a top two line player. In addition, Norris is a 2C and will be on the roster.
