SABRES 0311

Greenway seems to be unleashed this year. A true power forward with scoring capability, he uses his size to prevent defenders from pushing him from in front of the net. I’d say he has average hands and embraces the fact his best chance of scoring is within five feet of the net. Defensively he is like a much bigger Benson. He sticks with the play and doesn’t let a puck carrier go without taking a hit. Aside from the once in a while goal, his physicality has the potential to motivate teammates and make opponents rush their puck movement.

Notice the difference in GDT conversations when the team actually plays real hockey.

WOOOOOO!!!!!

Sabres keeping FLA to the perimeter. FLA not responding well to the physical game.

He plays the gritty game and showing it pays off. It’s nice to finally have a good third and fourth line.

What?

Ruff really wants this. Shortening the bench to go with talent.

Kulich looks good. I was wrong.

Knight is about two more from getting the good night.

Well that was a stupid penalty.

About ****ing time!!!

Greenway going to the net. Dirty goal!!!

They gotta move their feet and bodies. It’s the same little boxes they all stay in. PK is not going to get sucked in to open lanes.

Power has played a lot more of a structured game. He and Byram are clicking.

Byram has bought into the Ruff way. He hustled back and stole the puck. Way to not give up.

What’s slower, Thompson’s speed or his shot of late?

And this is how you get a job as the video review guy. Good catch!

I hope. He’s a minus 1 now.

Dahlin and Power saying “this is not the defense your looking for.”

Lafferty. Sabres going with 11 forwards and 7 defensemen.

Gilbert is in

Maybe this is the start of a 10 game streak where the “big guns” go on tear. Dont laugh please.

No excuses tonight.
