Eich is a baby giraffe. More awkwardness than elegance at this very early stage in his career.- 469 replies

Reinhart is going to have some beaut assists over his career. The difference between his blind passes out of the corner and Kane's is massive. Talk about two different ends of the awareness spectrum -

Kane's game is square peg through round hole. Maybe its what we need with the finesse of the team. But it has been pretty frustrating (for me) in his short Sabre career. -
GDT GDT: Buffalo at Dallas, 8:00pm ET, 11/21/2015
GrassValleyGreg replied to Doohickie's topic in The Aud Club
Thanks for the GDT guys. One observation from the last few games: Sammy Reinhart's shot. Not sure if it's been discussed but goalies seem to have trouble reading the puck off his stick. A much heavier shot than I noticed in Junior (limited scouting). As I'm sure with all here, I'm very excited to watch this line continue to grow tonight. They were the best trio on the ice after the first period last game and only stand to get better. Go Sabs! -

I really hope Kane changes his puck on net mentality on the PP. His low percentage shots are often as good as a turnover.- 548 replies

GrassValleyGreg replied to WildCard's topic in The Aud Club
Eich is so strong with his poke check. The puck just stays on his tape on the takeaway. That plus his length will lead to a lot of goals on the forecheck. Very strong debut from Bogo. -

Reinhart looking stronger with the puck the last couple of games. Creative puckwork when pinned also keeps cycles alive. -

Such a good site. I think it's safe to say we can't have Mouls and Gionta on the same line. -

Executed well from puck drop to empty netter. Can't remember seeing a team with the skill of TB have so much trouble getting out of their own end. Forecheck and defensive zone structure was top notch. Again, Eich's coming out party. These guys continue to gush into the aftergame show. "Mario Lemieux-type stuff". So nice to have a shiny little object in Buffalo. I thought one of Reinhart's strongest games as well. Literally. First time I've seen him shield the forecheck to buy time for zone clearance like that. And his awareness was on display also. A lotttttt of hate on Gionta on here. I like the guy on the ice in key situations more than Mouls. His game continues to regress. Hey this is fun! -

I'm sure it's been said but: Eichel's introduction to the country. These guys are gushing over his incredibly strong performance on national TV. Reinhart showing off some of his strength on the puck too! -

GrassValleyGreg replied to nfreeman's topic in The Aud Club
Think Larsson was one of the better players on the ice tonight, and they were the only line in the first two periods to provide some pressure. Think it's mostly on Eich, overthinking things, holding onto the puck a bit too long. Don't think Mouls is the answer but just my opinion. How nice is it to have a dominant faceoff man to close out games? ROR won at least 3 in the last two minutes. That is huge. -
Sure but are guys like Gallagher, Garbutt, Maroon, Dupuis, Eakin, etc? All top 6 guys on top teams. Some very successful teams' approach is balance, and we're getting closer to being afforded the depth to follow that lead. All I'm saying.

Deslauriers - O'Reilly - Ennis Reinhart - Eichel - Larsson Kane - Girgensons- Foligno Gionta - Legwand - McGinn PP Kane - O'Reilly - Ennis Eichel - Risto/Bogo/Franson Deslauriers not enough talent for the cycle game of Ennis/ROR or perfect dirty area presence to complement the two? Kane talent wasted on 3 or electric but individual game ideally matched with two guys who put their heads down and get to the net? Can Eich and Sam (and Larsson for that matter) continue to build chemistry and be enough to maintain Jack's influence on a game? Will Disco Dan put out such a dangerous PP or continue to lean towards an even two units? Hey, I know this is coming off a 3 game run with 129 total shots, but these are great questions to get to ask after years of despair!

Completely on page with this. We are looking more and more like a team who should be at least a bit active. We've outshot our opponents in each of the last 7 games by an average of 10 shots. My first reaction to Huck's trade was hell no, but no doubt it is an intriguing scenario. Also, all this winning lottery talk is triggering some dark depression. Please let us enjoy some hard fought and controlling play before delving our psyche back to 2014.

GrassValleyGreg replied to WildCard's topic in The Aud Club
I was hyper critical of Sam's NHL readiness heading into the season but he has improved significantly each game. What a treat to see him and Yeichel building some chemistry out there. Although Eich has the tendency to be lackadaisical with the puck, especially so tonight. One of Risto's best games so far. And Grigs, Mouls and Gionta are a solid #3.
