Broken Ankles

This. E- Rod did nothing tonight but Jimmy did less. I hope Lazar and Sheary are in tomorrow. Casey had a solid game and it was all for not.

Wasted by Jimmy

Wrong. E rod is now dressed. And so is Gilmour

E-Rod is on the bench and not dressed. Sheary made trip, but the projected line up did not have him starting. Was this reported?

No change to the Sabres Line up.

that Gif never gets old. A shame we only play them twice.

The "fourth line" is Sheary/Casey/Vesey. Our third line (GLO) is utilized correctly (IMHO) with a 65% D-zone start.

Miss his presence in the broadcast booth regularly.

According to NHL’s On the Fly, Jack has 8 PP goals since March 28 making him first. Tied for second are Olofsson and Dahlin with 7 each. Impressive stat.

Agreed. What is it? Is there any statistics that capture rebounds or the control of rebounds, because it seems like it's so much better.

Like: *Usage of the “third line”. *Protected usage of the “fourth line”. Not playing last 8 minutes of our close games is a good call. *two D-man (including Risto) on the 2nd PP. Although this speaks to the lack of depth with our forwards. It’s a different look and I like it. Dislike: * Vlad on the second line. Yes better than last year but an offensive liability. He has zero points while Skinner and MoJo have 4 each. Too much TOI each night. *Vesey playing with first line in lieu of Olafsson. Too conservative. Not like Jimmy is some kind of Defensive wizard. A good defense might be a good offense. Score or possession will protect your lead. ambivalent *Ristos minutes and 5v5 play. He was a -10 in October last year with five points (PP#1). So far he has only one point and a -1, with similar minutes/usage, so better? Smarter people than I will need to explain why it’s better or worse.

Jimmy lies a lot doesn’t he. Jimmy’s close to getting healthy scratched.

According to Capfreindly he never has been on LTIR, just IR. Only Hunwick is on LTIR. Why do we even try?

Let’s look at what he looks like in April. I’ll bet he has 5 x the goals of Vlad.

Pretty sure James Neal is a top 6 guy. Could have been had for a song. Just needed the right situation. I’d be happy with him playing RW on the top line and slide Sam the second, and of course Vlad would have been moved in the deal, so the cap is a wash.

Nope. A giant chasm of talent between Sam and Vlad. Sobotka has been an absolute drag on the second line. I’m still convinced Tage will be a late season call up and get moved to the second line. He played probably his best game Friday and was still a non-factor in the O-zone. His open shot in the third was weak sauce. MoJo and Skinner have had some good shifts together and I like their chemistry but not playing better than the first line.

Your moniker says Third liner, but that is some second line shite right there. Thanks. p.s. If Sabrespace calls you a third liner, are you really a fourth liner, and should you be posting after the second period? Especially if we have a lead.

Scandella played an excellent game all around. Fine Defense and chipping in on the Oh-fense. Did I just compliment the play of Marco? Maybe Head Coach Ralph Krueger is some kind of horse whisperer.

No Changes to the Sabres Line up, which is why I did not post. In fact sadly the people at Daily Faceoff are still miss reporting the lines, so please replace FL3 with FL4 and vice versa. I'm hoping Kruger matches Larsson against Trocheck.

learned first in poetry class. Later came across in Telefon. Both were extremely useful.

with alot of this

Hoffman moving up to the first line and Weeger to the first pairing of D. "I think Hoff's gotten off to a real good start," Quenneville said. "Trying to move it around to get balance… There's some offense in all the groups, but we need the top group to have the puck more and play in the offensive zone a little bit more." FTFY

Kulikov for Pysyk The rights to Vesey for a third Lehner for a first Georges for a second McNabb and 2 second's for Fashing I'd said he throws darts on a regular basis. Not good, but he throws often.
