GDT: Boston at Buffalo, Nov. 12, 2022, 7pm, MSG, WGR
PerreaultForever replied to Eleven's topic in The Aud Club
Pretty good effort overall. They got in the passing lanes well and disrupted the Bruins game early on but keep in mind from what I saw the Bruins pretty much slept through the first half plus and only played their A game in the 3rd. Anderson was pretty good. Bruins dominated the dirty areas in front and on the wall as always. Tage's goal was nice. He played well. I thought Cozens played well. The D was spotty as usual. At least Hall didn't score 🙂 -

Ya, that's how I remember it too. Ted actually had them winning a few games despite the line up and then Murray ditched all the goalies. I think Ted knew he was being sacrificed but he had pride and he kept trying to win. He was stubborn and bull headed, but Ted was a good competitive coach in his time and he had players competing as best they could as well. -
I would assume any deal to take him off the Bruins hands would involve the Bruins adding a sweetener. So you didn't claim him but maybe if they throw you a (idk) 3rd rounder? 2nd? Not sure what it would take.

As we all know, he's pretty much relying on the draft and is comfortable building slowly. Lybushkin was a good add but he really hasn't done a whole lot in terms of immediate hole filling and improvements. For the drafting, well we shall see in time.

Everything except the bolded is true.

Is it time to give Anderson more games?
PerreaultForever replied to matter2003's topic in The Aud Club
Been saying this for years. and it's not just the defensemen, a lot of the forwards don't do their job defensively either. -
Mike Reilly is down in Providence but not playing. Rumour has it they are working on a trade to somewhere................... (I doubt it's Buffalo)

I think my ipad threw itself off the bridge.

If those lines play out against what Boston usually does, you have Thompson vs. Bergeron which should be interesting but likely we win zero face offs all night. Cozens line will have their hands full with Pasternak and Hall and Coyle's line will absolutely destroy Mitts line. But you never know. Boston has to have an off night at some point. Maybe this is their "trap game".

Pat LaFontaine put a curse on them. We don't deserve it, but we have an owner who knows nothing about hockey constantly hiring inexperienced people and flipping the plan over and trying again and never handing the keys over to an experienced hockey guy(s) who knows what he's doing and isn't learning on the job making mistakes. The best players on this roster were acquired by JBot. KA flipped the assets Murray acquired for picks and prospects (Tuch excepted) that may or may not pan out. If they do, it'll be closer to being fixed, if they don't, it's just gone full circle and gotten us nowhere. If Pegula had handed this team over to somebody like Rick Dudley years ago we wouldn't be in this mess.

Tage's sh% and contract are definitely linked

He reaches his peak when his linemates are on his level (or closer to it). -

F*ck Jack Eichel. That is all. -

Must the Sabres always suck and the only highlight we ever have is winning the draft lottery. -

PerreaultForever replied to North Buffalo's topic in The Aud Club
I want to see Eichel get booed every shift. Sadly, I think this might be Eichel's revenge game. I haven't seen Vegas play this year but if it's Cassidy hockey, well, we have struggled against that style for years. -
obviously finding a way to keep his job but he's pretty much taken over DesLauriers role there. 4th fight this season already.

Seems like old Nathan Beaulieu is fighting somebody just about every night this year. https://www.hockeyfights.com/fights/n265831

They did but that's only step one. They still have to come up with another 6 million plus I believe. Forbert might go on LTIR but more still has to happen. I'd still take Reilly, but at this point with their squeeze I'd want them to toss in a higher mid level draft pick, maybe even ask for a 2nd rounder. Craig Smith is another name tossed around as an overpaid has been. Same thing. I'd want a solid pick or prospect to take him, but I think there is an opportunity to get something from them.

GDT: Coyotes @ Sabres 8 November 2022, 7 PM MSG-B, BSAZ
PerreaultForever replied to SABRES 0311's topic in The Aud Club
I think that's a fair assessment of what they are doing. I'm not convinced it's the right approach though. Not at all. -
I don't really disagree with you but to me not caring about winning vs. winning not being priority numero uno is a distinction that kind of doesn't matter. To me. It amounts to the same thing. I'm pretty sure it is a VERY long timeline, but I don't have to like that. As a fan I am sick and tired of "next year". We've heard all that before. To me, setting a standard and an expectation for giving it your all and trying to win every night is a cornerstone. Philly was supposed to be crap (and maybe still are) but that's the approach they've taken. Culture first. I'm simply afraid this will cycle around AGAIN and this batch will lose their love or get comfortable with a low bar and round and round and round we go.

I hear this, and I've seen the messaging, but I just don't see that on the ice or in their decisions of who plays and so forth. To me it sort of looks like they don't care about winning this season at all. They will never say that, but that's just how it feels. -
Or they don't actually want to win this year.
-
These lines are closer to what was working earlier so I guess the experiments go down as failures. Pilut-Power troubles me.

McAvoy likely coming off of LTIR this week. Bruins going to have to do some serious cap gymnastics this week. KA should call and see if they want to sweeten something.

My comment wasn't directed at you specifically but rather to the general idea of a "trap game". If you lose 2 straight and come home and fall into a "trap" that's a huge failure of the coaching staff and/or the leadership core. There is no way this should happen. If coming off 2 wins sure, but not after two straight losses. -
