We look like we’re are avoiding contact and work. Very passive.

This goalie stops the puck and leaves big juicy rebounds

Bryson fails to execute a clearing pass and then gets outmuscled for the puck.

They are slow and avoiding contact. Playing down to the competition.

Our first line was owned on that shift and we had to take a penalty.

Well. That was bad.

We have two more periods. Plus 3 more games before the Bills play again.

Mitts with a beautiful 1 on 4. where is everyone?

Great forecheck by Philly. I said come out fast and hard. Instead it’s been slow and soft.

Wow. Power made a mistake. Bouncy puck is puck luck for Philly.

Yes, isn’t this a make up game from the storm cancellations?

Nothing. Possibly running into a hot goalie.

Krebs had a great chance, nice deke but this goalie for Philly is coming up big.

You can’t play him with 37 and 71. We have last change and that was a bad matchup.

Really quiet. ouch. Chesse goal.

Good evening Teamates, Punch checking in. Big game tonight. Get the crowd into it early, come out fast and hard. (cue inkman) Muscle Weight. Go Sabres!!!

No. I am seeking opinions here and I consider the hockey forum to be entertainment. I just don’t like sitting and listening to podcasts unless I’m on a long drive or something. So I don’t commit time to them.

Comrie was 1/2 in 3 games with 3.03 and 0.898. Not dominant stats but only 3 games. How did he look? Was he moving ok?

The entire team was. Dahlin and Skinner especially.

The Bills win today will certainly be a memorable game in Franchise history, and in NFL history. Hines TD return on the opening kickoff was magical. Can you imagine how they felt? What an incredible emotional roller coaster this team has had this season. I foolishly thought they could put up 35 points in the first half after that play. Then reality set in. The other team showed up and they were prepared to play a game. The Bills are a very good team, maybe a great team, but not a perfect team. They could win the Super Bowl, they might fall short. I just hope the success continues because this Franchise, Team, and Community deserves it.

Agree. You do not purposely trade Krebs, you want internal the competition and see if one of the current prospects can take his job. That is how you get better. I can't see Adams making a trade now, maybe at the deadline and even then I suspect he would add help at defense over changes to the forward lines.

Yes, the ZG-PK-KO line is considered the 4th line but there are games were they get many more minutes than a traditional 4th line would. (Like the Minnesota 4th line filled with bangers) All I needed was one game to see how Krebs can benefit from playing with the two vets. Krebs seems to be smart enough to understand his role, scrappy enough to take it on, and skilled enough to add a dangerous dimension to the line. He has more upside and his ceiling looks to be a steady 3C at some point somewhere in the league. His pass to VO for the game winner last night showed VERY good skills. He knew exactly what to do and he put the pass right in VO’s wheelhouse. Not a lot of 4th line players do that, and not a lot of 4th line players even sniff the ice in OT.

Very true. I just hope his formula will work in a playoff series were opponents get all to familiar with each other and structure, securing a lead , and playing safe to hold a lead isn’t a bad thing. Right now whatever concerns I’ve had about Granato have faded. He is doing a fabulous job. Literally everyone on the roster is contributing and improving. Last night everyone contributed.

You can do better.

Yes, they are playing better positional play.
