Stop the loss skid. Just win. Let's go Sabres

I've been trying off and on all day to get espn+. I keep getting message that they are having technical difficulties. Hope they get it fixed before game time.

Coming from behind for a win never gets old.
Love the veteran moves by Okposo and Girgensons (inspiring the younger players and providing valuable lessons of how to play).
It was said many times at the beginning of the thread but the uniforms are bad. It was distracting to watch the play at times with the white. Next.
Agreed. To much white. I think a time or two I lost a player in the ice.

Wow... another great game. The tenacity level that they are playing at just wears teams down by the third period.
-
Wow!! What a great game. Too many good things to list. But even Middelstadt had two posts. He's got seven points in nine games. I think he'll sink one eventually. TNT and Skinner with beautiful goals.

This will be my first Halloween the Sabres have a game as a homeowner. How do you handle games that fall on Halloween? I imagine I'll have the tablet out on the patio while I hand out candy?
Sell your house move two miles to the end of a dead end dirt road. We did this and haven't had any trick or treaters in the fifteen years we've been here.

Goaltending makes a world of difference
Hence my harping about needing a good goalie for the last two years. That has really been my only complaint with management. I just don't understand why it took them so long to address it. And really this year they just took a flyer on commri. So far it is looking like it will pay off. Hope it continues.

Great game. Hopefully Comrie's game last night was the rule and not the exception. If so we will be in the hunt for playoff spot. TNT's goal was great. Dahlin has got it figured out. Now if we can get Tuch and Skinner going. The young kid's are holding their own and will improve continually although it will feel agonizingly slower than we like. We want them ready now. But it's fun to watch them grow.

This was the canes last pre season game. I doubt they were playing their ahl roster. Overall pleased with the play of some of our young players. They will be fun to watch this year
-
Also on NHLN... it's about time. I have missed sabres hockey.
-
Yeah.... I'm still pretty disappointed that this is the best management could do concerning goaltending this year. Goaltending usually makes or breaks the team. If they lose confidence in the goalies, it's over. You don't necessarily have to have great goaltending but you do have to have good solid goaltending for the playoffs. I just don't think this collection of goalies will be able to do that. Hope I'm pleasantly surprised.
-
I really appreciate a player taking the time to write a letter to fans. I don't remember a player ever doing this before. I will admit I only pay attention to the Sabres and don't remember this happening before. But I really appreciate it when it is heart felt.
-
Im glad we traded ullmark. He's an ok goalie but I don't think he is Stanley cup contender material. Having said that I know this is his first taste of the playoffs and has some jitters. But we need better.

A great game to finish out the season and give RJ one last victory. To much to say but just a couple of things. Thanks for the memories RJ. Suban was a nice touch. The guys wanted it to much early and were gripping the stick to hard. They finally settled in and pulled out a victory. Only way it could have been better is with a 5-2 victory. Going forward fix goaltending first and foremost. Then upgrade a couple of lower players and next season will truly be fun to watch. They definitely made big strides the last half of the season. Overall I'm a happy sabres fan looking forward to next season.

Eichel I guess lol
Technically Ristolainen last year and Taylor Hall for the handful of games he played under Granato.
And they're all gone.

I know this is a Skinner thread and he has definitely helped this team turn around. But I read some where yesterday that with the 37 goals TNT has scored this season he has scored more goals than Jack did in any one season as a sabre. I hope they don't separate them as line mates. They definitely feed off each other.

I'm not going to be happy unless we get a true number one netminder. Bring up UPL to be the number two or whatever. But we don't need to mess around any more. We lacked 30 points from having a solid playoff position. Thats 15 wins short. Lack of good goaltending especially earlier in the season is a big part of that. It will be a disaster to miss the playoffs next year because of one position. Do not take a chance on a maybe or hope player. If we can pick up next year in play where we are now we will be there. Please fix goaltending.

Jack has played 28 games. When does his break end?
Good point. I didn't realize he had played that many games.
-
TNT is better than Jack was tonight. Granted Jack is coming off a long injury break. But I am well satisfied with Tage.

Vegas loses 3-2. lol
If these guys didn't have numbers on - I wouldn't be able to tell Eichel from anyone else on that team. I certainly wouldn't say he was a standout.
I was thinking the same thing. I watched this game and had a hard time noticing when he was on the ice.

That would be a big mistake imo going into the off-season thinking we just need a goalie. Still need a solid RHD, Starting Goalie, upgrade over Hinostroza, are we re-signing Olofsson? I'd also hope they find an upgrade over Middelstadt. They need to spend 22M to get to the cap floor so some upgrades will be in order and much needed.
Yes I agree we definitely need to tweak the lines a little. I was just pointing out the most glaring position that needs fixing. The point I was trying to make is we are doing a lot better in the goal scoring department this year compared to the last several years. I'm willing to give Mitts one more season. Dahlin just since the all star break finally got his game figured out. Mitts wasn't drafted till the year after Dahlin. Mitts makes some really good passes and comes up with the puck along the wall pretty well. He just needs to start scoring more.

Another entertaining win. When they went down two goals early I wasn't worried (that's a good feeling for a change). We now have a legit team that can score goals across all our lines. Just fix the goaltending for next season please. Power is going to be great. I really believe that he will come into his own quicker than Dahlin did. Power made a couple of rookie mistakes but overall he is playing solid hockey in just his third game of his career.

Well another great game. I was afraid they wouldn't have enough gas to finish the game do to their grueling schedule but they played a full 60 minutes and were rewarded for it.

We need a good goalie also. Comrie is at 3.65 gaa And Anderson is well on his way to being over 3 gaa. Tuff to win consistently when you have to score 4+ goals every game. Would be nice if our goalie would steal a game now and then as well.
