Well yeah. He was there to watch his team.

Don't you realize the points percentage on 7-3-1?

See also: we are the bad team other fans think their team should beat.

So we weren't the first.

I don't know what we're discussing here. When the other team's net is empty?

So wait. What is this other team's net is empty you speak of?

Until it happens to us. The awarded goal takes away that human train wreck possibility but also the joy of seeing the twine bulge. Imagine the whole arena rising to try and jinx the shooter. You know someone would eventually Vanek-slap the puck off the crossbar. Get me Bettman on the blower.

They should resign McLoud.

Is there anyone who would like to see players awarded a penalty shot in an EN situation be required to actually score? That is, penalty shot on a yawning cage?

Sabres ended the losing streak in last place in the EC and 12 points out of a spot. After picking up 13 of 20 points they are still in last but are 9 points back.

Economic. Efficient. Effective.

This might be the key: 25.1 Awarded Goal – A goal will be awarded to the attacking team when the opposing team has taken their goalkeeper off the ice and an attacking player has possession and control of the puck (or would have gained possession and control) in the neutral or attacking zone, without a defending player between himself and the opposing goal, and he is prevented from scoring as a result of an infraction committed by the defending team

My head's in McLeod's.

The TO there just makes it worse IMHO.

Past is not prologue. You don't give up a three goal lead in the third, FFS.

I mean... yeah. Wow this broadcast is awful top to bottom.

Now the dude is talking through another near Sabres goal.

Drone in Buffalo. OMG shut up.

Right on cue Botterill is asking if Rod the Bod is any happier as Cozens fires it home. Atrocious.

Someone in the audience just passed a kidney stone.

Whopper kicking in?

Yeah she did a nice job stopping with some rambling comment while Zach Benson almost scored, then picked the story right up. That's talent.

This gives me an opening to ask an honest question. How many penalties are you (fans) willing to accept in an average NHL game?

That's Jean Claude Van Damme in goal.
