Great shift

Marty Biron is such a good play analyst

Yapping I think… Samuelson hit on side of helmet

Another good period… PK is clicking… PP still searching

PP is Fuzzy

As big and fast as players are today, surprised this tragedy hasn’t happened more often.

Best case it is something new and not a recurring or nagging injury…

Sounds familiar… Think KA/DG were so excited to see how our rich pipeline of prospects would perform in camp and preseason… they neglected to prepare our vets to win the last few preseason games and start the season with winning a team priority from the getgo… Luckily, both signed extensions in the offseason and are safe for this season at least. A win today against a top team at home would be more valuable than the 2 points.

First in 240 game NHL career according to AP report. https://apnews.com/article/sabres-connor-clifton-suspended-devils-nico-hischier-832963534ed0ccb1cf6a9a90d9fea8cb

Agree… Do imagine KA/DG and McBeane are safe for 2-3 more years… though Pegula is unpredictable… Attendance, fan support, local and national media… the new stadium and arena upgrades… cap space and big payrolls… so many factors putting pressure on both teams to compete at the highest level for the next 5-10 years. We are poised for success… Go Sabres!… Go Bills!

Think Biron put it exactly right in his post game comments… Paraphrasing him… Sabres played pockets of good hockey tonight… and not 60 minutes of good hockey… Players focused on their individual performance in those pockets… and not the team performance over three periods. My take is it’s a mindset challenge… Only the coaches and players can fix it. Not KA… Not Pegula… Not any one player or line or D pairing. Ruff had the Devils prepared to play… and they wanted it more than we did. Sunday is the first game in a new week…

Didn’t shoot when it mattered.

Great effort?… Nope… Not enough shooting.

Hooray a shot on net

Shoot Rush Crash Score… Now

Get the puck

Geez Johnson

Dammit

Boom… Tied…

Johnson is gassed

Good to see Granato get exorcised.

Good evening all… Buffalo’s Center Ice Cable Channel wouldn’t connect… Xfinity is the worst… Just connected now… Tough luck about Comrie… Need UPL to perform.
