  1. They played even better, yet they lost even worse Hutton was bad. Refs were pitiful yet again-- pretty much stole the game on their own. Sabres all of a sudden tried to make plays to the net. Just didn't get bounces their way. Vesey looked great. Mittelstadt looked good on wing. We need a 3C in a trade. Dahlin mistakes cost us the game when our players can't score anything. Skinner is also useless on that third line. Swap him with Oloffson now please. go back to hfboards with your whining
  2. A player will help, but them playing the puck around the boards nonstop and not tape to tape is the bigger issue.
  3. Kucherov deserves a suspension before tomorrow for that dirty play Sabres are back to their dump and not chase, pass halfway up the boards and never get the puck back perimeter play again. And it’s suffocating. What happened to early season? In the offensive zone they’ve laid an egg. They are getting outplayed physically in the d zone, but that didn’t cause too bad of a problem today. It was the lack of offense that’s killing them and their confidence. Can’t do that with all our small guys.
  4. Carolina has extra forwards worth acquiring???? They trading Necas away or something??
  5. I don't understand what either team would give-up for Ristolainen? Hall is UFA.. Risto shouldn't be traded out for a rental looking for his big pay-day. Maybe Suzuki from MTL? Shiny new toys typically don't get traded out though. It'd be the inter-division premium price though. If they want Scandella, taking Armia back would be nice. Anderson gives Tage some competition. Of course Scandella goes and gets himself injured as soon as interest comes. At least both teams have some cap space to take on some cap in return. Makes me think a prospect in return is more likely.
  6. Intermissions are when dishes get cleaned, clothes get washed, drinks are refilled. None of that happens without those 17 minutes. Going to be a dirty house this week with no games in 5 days
  7. Ya, let's forget the guy being a raging alcoholic during his tenure here. It was the Sabre's defense's fault.. Yay.. okay buddy.
  8. Had to basically uninstall a bunch of apps that spoil no matter what settings I select (looking at you Athletic), but I can usually DVR as long as that doesn’t happen.
  9. Do all teams bring a third goalie on the trip? Is there an exemption for it?
  10. Islanders barely had any chances and only goal against was from behind the net. What the hell are you making up for half of your post?
  11. ***** this game makes me mad. They dominated play ALL night. Two games in a row they lose when they didn’t even play bad
  12. This game is so frustrating. They’re dominating play and generating chances but can’t finish. Going to bite them in the ass Vesey looks good on the top line. Oloffson seems to be fitting well on the 2nd line. Sobotka sucks woo— call up Tage please
  13. People reminiscing about Kane? Christ get it together. Buffalo hasn’t even been playing bad. Barely been hemmed for even a minute in two periods. Bounces just not going their way.
  14. Woo. Outchanced them all period but gave up a goal each time they let up for a second. They can win this game given what they’re doing but not if they can’t freaking finish.
  15. Sobotka is obvious odd man out in top-6, but who would be the odd man out in the bottom-6? Would Botterill bench Okposo? Sheary has been good, only Rodrigues has really struggled back there. Unless he plans on demoting Mittelstadt to some AHL time..
  16. It's hard to find certain candies in the stores anymore. Chocolate is cheap right now from oversupply in 2016, so the candy companies are pushing the stock out en masse. It's annoying. Can't even find a bag of just sugar candies (nerds!) anymore.
  17. LA at 49 contracts. They’ll want to offload contracts.
  18. Sobotka sucks at breaking-out of the zone. The defensive game is very overrated, same with face-offs. As long as Toffoli is smarter than Sobotka at break-outs, that line improves. Though I think Tage 1 for 1 swap is enough to improve that line.
  19. Toffoli's value is low right now, healthy scratch. Pending UFA rental contract makes him even lower in value until the deadline, but we aren't a team that is banking anything due to LTIR to wait for him later either. Couldn't trade for him without shipping 4.6+ mil salary out to match, though the kings do have 5 mil in space to dump something if needed (Sobotka!) Not really sure what his value is even at right now, and then how much it goes up to take-on a salary dump to fit him in? Rodrigues+Sobotka for Toffoli+expendable contract? Or do they want to go bigger and include Ristolainen and Martinez as a swap, and change the prospect to something better?
  20. Montour just working in slow, starting on the bottom pairing.
  21. They made spin-o-ramas in shootouts against the rules a year or two back. Most kids I see carrying the puck high would do so with a spin-move. I'ts great intimidation during warm-ups, though the goalies hate them. It's really hard to do without spinning. It's why it's used often from behind the net because they get the arc going around.
