Yeah, couldn't understand why Stillman went sprawling across the crease to try to block the pass until seeing it again on the replay, he didn't intentionally go sprawling. And in the 1st there was one shift where the Rat Faced Git grabbed a Sabres stick twice thwarting clearing attempts both times. Amazing how much easier it is to dominate when you get away with crud like that all game long.

It seemed that rant was going to be over how incredibly bad the PK is (how in the world is ther a team that's worse at it than the Sabres?) and how simply bad the PP has been lately.

UPL deserved a much better fate this night. Hope the team's meltdown doesn't take him out of the zone he was in.

Umm, when did the Sabres enter the league? (Hit, it wasn't 1960.)

Would really like to see how this game would've turned out minus the trip on UPL. They were battling well then. But them just quitting for the final 3 minutes is frustrating.

3 goals against in the last 5 minutes. Yuck. But, beat Tampa and this is just a bad memory.

Fack. Double Fack.

Mittelstud!

Seems that way.

Casey Fitzgerald actually playing tonight for the Swamp Cats. Pretty sure that's his 1st game dressed for them.

Need to score on this PP. C'mon boys make it happen.

Rat Faced Git not coming back with a lower body injury. Good on Krebs.

If UPL tripped the Bruin on that save, Carlo has to get called for interference behind his net. How about some consistency refs? (And by that, beyond gobbing 1 teams knob constantly. THAT has been consistent.)

That 2nd goal, Cozens had seen Jokiharju down low but didn't realize he'd moved over to cover the guy open in the slot. Cozens needed to stay with him as Henri wasn't where he expected him to be.

Big assist on that one to the idiot ref.

No wonder the B's never lose at home. Make a save, get a free tripping call to go with it.

Neither was Bernier in his 1st game either. Hopefully Stillman's play is more sustainable.

What a chance for Peterka. Olofsson had one earlier too. Maybe Krebs will be the guy to bury one for that line tonight.

IF they waive him again after being here for 30+ days or 10 games since being recalled. Not for a while.

That's what was meant by how both UPL and Peterka are playing tonihght. The only way that could happen now that Stillman is on the roster was to either send somebody else to Ra-cha-cha (not happening), trade a body for a pick (makes no sense), or put Dahlin on IR. Once Anderson got the start Tuesday, he wasn't starting tonight. They don't trust Comrie, so UPL had to be between the pipes tonight. So, some move had to happen. Had Comrie gotten Tuesday's start, Andy could've gone tonight and UPL could've "gone" to Ra-cha-cha.

And thus we have UPL and Peterka both playing tonight. Was kind of expecitng this move when Anderson got Tuesday's start.

Meh.

Not the guy that makes proposed deals, but would expect it would be 2 1st and a Rosen type prospect at minimum.

And IF a legit goalie add is in the works, could see why Adams wouldn't want this year's 1st included in a package for Chychrun. Would much rather have Saros than Chychrun even though the overall cost would be (significantly) higher.

You could be right. Probably are. Am glad the Sabres got bland and flavorless chicken salad out of this situation. Hockey wasn't Dryden's passion either. He still ended up in the HoF. (Probably not Portillo's trajectory.)
