Good way to start the new year. They needed that.

Exactly where do you get this information about the players being locker room problems? Yeah Bogo and Rodrigues asked for trades so those are low hanging fruit for your list but where do you come up with the other 4? Picking them oit of a hat?

Wouldn't matter, we already lost a ll 4 games to the Lightning this year, we wouldn't need to be afraid til next year.

No we are the best hockey market in the US.

This team is a jokeshow

JFC...this team sucks.

For both PK and PP. Our special teams have been killing is except for the first 2 weeks of the season when nobody realized all you needed to do was take away one timers from Olaffson on the PP. The most embarrassing part was that stretch in November when other teams scored 4 shorthanded goals over the course of the month while we scored only 1 PP goal.

Sabres God awful penalty killing raises its ugly head again. At least Eichel got a rare shortie for us.

No lead is safe with this team. SMFH

The Eichel Tower!

Holy secondary scoring Batman. Sheary with a 3 point night.

I hate the Bruins so much. How is it the Sabres never score goals like this but they constantly allow goals like that???

For 2 minutes. JFC can we ever catch a break?

Uggh. Not like he was scoring but he was still dangerous with the puck at times.

It helps with pretty much any virus. They had a study that showed in clinical trials that a cocktail that contained Elderberry, Cinnamon and a few other natural things was as effective against HIV as some of the early drugs being used. Can't remember if it binds to our cell receptors or the virus receptors, but it basically binds to the area where the virus attaches to the cells in the body to infect them. Since it can't bind to these cells, the virus basically just gets attacked or flushed out of the body eventually without being able to infect you.

Hey don't jinx me!! Anyone left who doesn't want it should go buy a bottle of Sambucol Elderberry extract and start taking it...prevents viruses from being able to replicate.

Guess the rest of the team saw Eichel getting the night off so they thought they might as well take it off as well. Picking up where the left off in the first period of Toronto. SMFH

Because they had a plan, stuck with it and spent 3 years under the same coach and GM to build something the right way that works and will last. Sabres have not had that continuity yet even though they have some good pieces. I think after 3 years under JBotts/Kreuger we will see similar results.

Been a long time coming. He has really struggled.

Sabres have recovered nicely after a tough November stretch and have now gotten points in 9 of their last 10 games, going 5-1-4 in that stretch. Granted it would be nice if they could figure out a way to stop losing in OT and win a few of those but a point is better than nothing, giving them 14 of a possible 20 points over that time period and catapulting them into 2nd place in the division with a 3 point cushion. Kreuger has figured out how to do something that Housley never could over 5 months...get this team out of a tailspin and back to playing good hockey that gets results.

That goal today was very elite...grabbed a rebound in tight with traffic around him and quickly roofed the puck on his backhand on a bad angle. Not many players would have been able to make that play and he made it look easy. Dude is just turning into a monster this year and a serious problem that other teams have very few answers for. He makes people look silly when they attempt to take the puck from him on the half wall.

Eichel is a better player, Matthews a better pure goal scorer although Eichel is now 2nd in the NHL to Pastarnak in goals. That goal he scored today was an elite play to be in close and quickly flip the puck up into corner of the net with a defensive player and goalie there.

We fought back from goal deficits twice against the stingiest defensive team in the league at home. They earned a point which was well deserved. Just keep piling up points and in the end everything will take care of itself.

Eichel has been so good...dude is turning into a top 5-10 player in the NHL. Sabres deserved a point at least and their PP was very impressive...kept the puck in the zone the whole PP twice on their goals.

Sabres absolutely dominated the 2nd period and that was a rocket by Olafsson to tie it...he has been a revelation...dude has a good shot at 30+ goals which is pretty impressive for a rookie even if he is 24. Sabres need a good 3rd. Even penalty kill has been good allowing very few shots and had an odd man rush... Sabres starting to really play consistent good hockey and limiting their lapses...Kreuger is putting his stamp on this team and they are finally starting to believe in themselves and show some mental toughness instead of cracking like a raw egg at the first sign of any trouble.
