This is a team that for most of the last 2 seasons didn't appear to know how to close out games and win. That resulted in a lot of close losses and not many really ugly losses. At the same time, there have been fleeting glimpses of what they're capable that have given us some nice blowout wins. The Penguins are just an old, slow, and bad hockey team that get blown out a lot, but they also know how to gut out the occasional close win with guys like Crosby/Malkin/Letang. So, the surface-level numbers are deceiving. We're seeing some signs this month that maybe they're starting to crack the code, though. Of course, we've seen these signs before only for them to piss on their shoes again. We'll see if this is finally the progress we've been waiting for or if yet another set back is ahead.

'Muel was noticeable in a good way, too. They're almost looking like the promising team that closed out the 2022-23 season. I'm not letting myself get sucked in just yet to have the ripped out again, but there are some encouraging signs finally.

This warms the cockles of my heart. Maybe below the cockles. Maybe in the sub cockle area. Maybe in the liver, maybe in the kidneys. Maybe even in the colon.

Nice comeback. That's 6/7. On to the next one.

STOP ICING THE PUCK

Yeah, this has always bugged me.

Man, this has been a chippy game.

Boys are buzzing right now. If they can just eliminate the no-show periods, they might be a pretty decent team.

JOKER!

Well, take the dog for a walk and come back to a tied game. Nice.

Everybody: ... Rayzor:

2nd period? Two word review - ***** sandwich Rayzor still eating.

They actually looked pretty good in the first but it seems like they spent the break eating a very large Thanksgiving dinner? Frustrating as hell.

Sabres power play

Rayzor gave up on the game and is just doing a mukbang.

Ducks are just toying with them. Awful showing so far this period.

I like how Benson so often looks to center the puck when he's behind the net. Now if we could just get guys there to meet the passes...

At this point, it's not like the org is serious about hockey; why should he be serious about broadcasting? How many Sabres shots have whizzer past the cage and THUNKED off the boards so far?

Yep, got a ticket for $3 on StubHub.

UPL's gotta stop that.

***** That kinda feels like game.

Another Sabres penalty. Sigh.

Many/most teams don't have the room in the arena to stick a color guy in the crowd. Plenty of room for Rayzor at KBC, though.
