Not sure Levy would hold up to the run and gun. A goalie like Hasek in his prime would have been most excellent with this current team. But Levy ?
Marv is like 100 years old. There’s no way he would hold up.

Good to see that they crush it in the blue and gold. Pretty sure we don't have to hear about how the only reason they win games at home is because they wear black and red there.
God bless the baby Jesus for this turn of events.

Apparently Ristolainen mentioned he really wished he had Tortorella as a coach when he was young.

It was crushing for the Buffalo Sabres franchise because he had a name to help sell tickets. Yes Patrick Kane’s best days are behind him but he has marquee which the Buffalo Sabres need to sell tickets. When the Buffalo Sabres ask for public money New York State residents are going to say you can’t fill the arena why should Buffalo and New York State make that public investment? The Buffalo Sabres attendance is a huge problem now in my opinion. Go Sabres! Let’s Go Buffalo
And how many games do you think this would have lasted?

I thought I was supporting what you said:
You were criticizing people for bagging on the 7D who only played three games... I was agreeing, and pointed out that he obviously wasn't the problem since they won those games.
I deleted my comment. I thought you were being sarcastic. My mistake.

Oh, and they won all three of those games, didn't they?
They did win those three games. But now that he’s been waived, things are be looking up. 😒

Bagging on the 7th defenseman who has played three games this year. 🙄

His coaching jobs have lasted 7yrs, 5yrs, 1yr, 6yrs, and now he is in year 2 in Philadelphia.
Not many coaches keep a job for 5 years.
Six years is about the shelflife of any coach.

Wow, broadcasters were just talking about how Colorado has a favorable schedule upcoming. Then they mentioned how the Sabres just can't string any wins together. So they asked Panger, what's the vibe down there on the Sabres bench. He says, I don't know, it's a brand new storm. If that doesn't tell you how ***** up this team is, nothing will. I've given up myself. I will never witness the city Buffalo hoisting a Stanley Cup.

Good god, why would you turn your head to watch a drop pass when you know there is a defenseman right on you?
Why would that be roughing? He got hit in the chest.

Two years ago I was super down on his offensive game. He had a beer league shot that hit the keeper in the middle of a chest every time. It was comical. I thought he turned the corner last year, but maybe that really was an outlier.

FTG.
I was thinking of the Brian Gionta years. Not that I’m singling him out, but that’s the era where I think we were a very low skilled hockey team.

Late third period. Our defensive zone. Failure to clear a puck for over 2 minutes.
The 5 Sabres did not pressure the puck. That means pressure the man with the puck to force a turnover. They formed a box and tried to cut off passing and shooting lanes. They failed to clear on two chances. Tage was one of them. Isn’t that the comment?
Not really. My comment was that there were several times when we had possession of the puck and all we needed to do was make a Calm play and fail to do so. I think it was Samuelson that tried to ring the puck all the way around on the glass that was easily gloved down at the point. Tage had the puck easily on his stick and he tried to make it off the boards and it was stopped. I think JJ tried to do the exact same thing. None of these plays required pressure or long sticks. We already had the puck and we weren’t under any pressure.

Been complaining about our lack of poise in the D end all season. Too many un-poised, unnecessary panic plays, especially by our D when if they’d just take an extra half tick to make the calm, simple play they’d get out of trouble. Dahlin is really the only guy we have who does this more often than not.
It’s certainly much better than in the past where the “Sabres try to clear but it’s kept in the zone” was an in-game go to phrase. However, there were some really noticeable times when the puck needed to get out of the zone and a spectacular play was not needed. Just an average run of the mill one and they spit the bit.

Agree. They were not pressuring the puck enough, too much waiting.
Missing Greenway and Tuch and the long sticks they bring.
It doesn’t feel like we’re talking about the same thing.

The one weak spot in an unexpectedly joyous evening, was the amount of panic we had in our defensive zone in the third period.
So many guys had complete control of the puck and then decided to ring it around the boards on the glass or failed to get out of his own like Tage did the one time and there was one prior to that too by JJ I think.
Those pucks need to get out.
