At least he wasn't on the ice when the B's scored the OT goal....some of our best players were on the ice instead. I'd rather see Sobotka than some of the other liabilities we have on the roster (KO, Mitts, etc.)

Ownership and management have to decide if they want to make changes to improve this team or stand pat and keep our draft picks and prospects. This team has maybe a 50-50 chance to make the playoffs as-is. They lack the talent to truly contend in the playoffs. I would argue they also lack the coaching as well.

Won't matter, our PP sucks!

Is the ice in the Bruin's zone even have any skate marks? Seems like a defensive shell approach all period...don't recall the last attack on the Bruin's zone.

I don't like how passive the PK is. I know the stats may indicate it does well as of late...but I prefer to see a more aggressive pk to force the play.

Another fair and balanced game of officiating .....NOT!

I think a sloth has a faster windup than Scandella!

Rodrigues was not very helpful there on the goal. He should have tried to move it away from the crease instead of towards Hutton.

I was thinking more like a ship's anchor....keeping the ship stagnant and slow.

Speaking for myself, RJ is a legend....a naturally gifted PBP guy like a McDavid or Dahlin player. You have it or your don't. Dunleavy is probably a nice guy, buy it's like trying to develop Justin Bailey or Nick Baptiste into a premier talent....some talent, but will never be very good, let alone great. Duffer being pressed into emergency service already showed me that he has much feel and talent than Dunleavy. I would like to see the Sabres use him for now, but I suspect that would create too many issues and controversy internally.

Goods news to me that Risto's minutes were down....maybe having the best D-lineup all season tonight makes for more even distribution of tough minutes.

It would be wrong for them to speculate period....whether it be good news or bad news. Being a responsible media outlet means to withhold speculating and stick to facts.

I am guessing RJ would want the broadcast to continue with the focus on the game and not himself. Not trying to make this sound like a funeral.

WTF?!?! He's doing his job!

I don't know if the broadcast team really knows anything. I think there just trying to be pro's and act like business as usual, which is exactly what they should do. Agree, Duffer doing a good job....I already like him better than Dunleavy.

Let's keep the pressure up....don't let the Ducks get a quick one.

Maybe....but I always thought RJ could anticipate something happening and his voice would escalate to match the situation. I don't feel that Dunlevy has any instinct for the play until after it has already happened.

I don't know about Hamilton, but I can't follow Dunlevy if it is radio only....he's not the long-term answer IMHO.

Horrible call....impressive dive!

I can cut Sheary some slack. No production lately, but he needs to be playing with a legit 2C. Okposo is simply bad. Can't stick handle, can't skate, can't do much except slow down his other two linemates. A real nice Christmas present would be a trade to get him off the roster.

Geez, shoot the dam puck!

Too many games like this. ice is tilted in our favor, but can't seem to cash it in. Only takes 1 fluke goal by the Ducks and it's tied...anybody's game still.

Can't stand watching this team's powerplay. Does not look like the coaching staff has any idea what to do...too many players standing around, no movement. Please hire a powerplay coach.

This seems the most likely to me as well. Not reporting and bad attitude is not trivial and I would like to see the contract terminated, however I think that is more wishful thinking than anything else. He will come back crawling and begging for forgiveness and the team will be obligated to give him another chance to redeem himself.

Has he always been as slow of a skater as he seems this year?
