... Posted October 3, 2015 Report Share Posted October 3, 2015 Okay, pick on the goalie time. Lehner just looks awful. Unless he turns it around in a week, he's a bust. He can't start the season looking this bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

... Posted October 3, 2015 Report Share Posted October 3, 2015 Usually teams improve as they play more games. The Sabres are getting worse. They're all tight all of a sudden. The first four or five preseason games weren't "serious" so they were having fun. Now it's time to get serious and they're all tense. And the goalie stinks.

He can't start the season looking this bad. He just had a shutout. Consistency is the problem. Probably mental. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwampD Posted October 3, 2015 Report Share Posted October 3, 2015 GameCenter rocks! Blue Jackets are a team to watch this year. I think the Sabres are going to be tough to watch until the new year. Still beats the "that which will not be named", though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now it's time to get serious and they're all tense. And the goalie stinks. Then let's be patient and wait for them to relax. We all know they're better than this.

... Posted October 3, 2015 Report Share Posted October 3, 2015 I agree he looks bad, but yeesh, this is quite the rush to judgment. No it's not and I explain why in the sentence that followed. No goalie should look this bad at the start of the season. There is no excuse for it. You think he's going to look better a week from now?

TrueBlueGED Posted October 3, 2015 Report Share Posted October 3, 2015 Looks like Bylsma has taken a grenade to the lines. Did I just see Moulson-Legwand-McGinn? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now it's time to get serious and they're all tense. And the goalie stinks. I think it's how good the Blue Jackets are (yes, I know who's not playing) and that he jumbled some of the lines and it's not working at all. That and Lehner is just terrible tonight. Maybe one of those should have been a goal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pastajoe Posted October 3, 2015 Report Share Posted October 3, 2015 The early games had prospects that were hungry to prove themselves. These guys look a bit too content. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have no idea, but I'm not going to call a guy a bust for a short stretch of bad hockey following a concussion that wiped out half his previous season. I hated the trade and am not especially optimistic about him, but he certainly deserves more than a preseason and the opening week of the season to prove himself.

WildCard Posted October 3, 2015 Author Report Share Posted October 3, 2015 I don't get why all 3 of Ennis, Eichel, and Moulson were just bunched in front of the net when McCabe was circling up top. Someone get down low and give him an outlet dammit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrueBlueGED Posted October 3, 2015 Report Share Posted October 3, 2015 I don't think we have a single player playing well, from the goalie to the forwards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will. It's going to be a while before they look like a cohesive team and that's fine. We're not winning the cup this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dude, this isn't about "proving himself", this is about simply looking capable and competent. He looks awful. I'm not looking for the next Hasek next week, but I am looking for a NHL-ready goalie. Stop trying to be the marm, here, the guy looks out of place among his peers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wjag Posted October 3, 2015 Report Share Posted October 3, 2015 I keep going up and down the Columbus roster. Who are these guys? This doesn't look anything like the team they iced last year. Are they getting beat by Columbis AHL team? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
