Low effort snipe. I hope the boys put in more than this

Our defense played really well in front of the net. It’s just all the breakaways. Dahlin can’t take a step forward without a bad break being poorly defended the other way.

Now I’m getting trolled by the admin?

We’re getting Lundqvuist optimism he’s the only guy on that panel who I respect an opinion from anyway. Saying the same things I do- you can’t defend a tall guy who is using his reach it’s unfair.

Bad stat line**. Phone autocorrect me wrong

Post game there was disrespect

Sabres beat themselves for first two periods. Holding sticks too tightly. Penguins weren’t skating, we’re a little physical, but not skating. They wire down in the third and we turned it up - Comrie had another bad start line but I thought he played well. Lots of breakaways. Power looked good finally. No defensive blunders. Fake shot that fooled the entire arena leading to a goal. Glad to finally see it click, he had a rough first handful of games. We’re surviving the Fitz/Bryson/Clague because Dahlin is playing literally half the game. Thompson invisible all game then gets what, three points? I don’t like Tuch being away from him, but we will probably see another game of it. Team sticking up for each other. Never giving up. Girgensons and Okposo clinching the game with pure effort. Pugilism and attitude up and down. Are you not entertained? Playoffs!

Oh what a great ***** you play there by the captains

Feels so weird getting the weak calls while Crosby is diving and drawing none. It’s almost two decades of that going the other way

Okay Power, you’re doing good kid

Asplund is stone hands 2.0 isn’t he

Sabres beating themselves this game

What a dumb game to be losing

Down cause our 7D is playing top pairing Forwards holding their sticks too tight. Nobody on Tuch/Peterka line wants to shoot. Get it together

White pants wut With the Jersey flare you’d think the pants would be yellow

Arrrrr TNT

Well that too. Gonna be high scoring, let me guess another Comrie game

Hines a great interview. Teammates keep saying ‘fast’. Colts fans I’ve talked to are all pissed. Might be what we need

I think if they’re going to make these lines work they need to swap Peterka and Quinn. That third line gonna get caved. pens talent gonna ear up our defense. How long until they’re healthy 😞

Hines is an upgrade there tho. Shakir is slow

KA isn’t going to find shutdown defenseman this time of year. If anyone needs to make adjustments it’s the coach. He’s chosen to not play his best defensive forwards during these injuries. That’s about as much as we can assess without being in the room

Only last game or two

At the seasons end if we ended up two points out of the playoffs, we already have evidence to point back to games where we had defense injuries (out of coaches control) but then also decided to bench Asplund. I know Granato is setting himself up with management to be blameless in that situation, but will the players themselves think of it that way? Or will he lose the team over the summer because none of his arbitrary were learning nonsense matters as they’re sitting on their couch watching the playoffs.

His reasoning makes sense. I just disagree with the growth mindset insistence if the team is ready to bud. Granato can always point to guys that need this approach any year no matter what - so when does he flip the switch? Does he actually know how to when that day comes?
