PASabreFan Posted December 2, 2015 Report Share Posted December 2, 2015 I've missed the sting on your cheeks after a loss. I am sick of losing. This was a great game, but the Sabres did a fantastic impression of their crosstown brethren. Learning how to lose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weave Posted December 2, 2015 Report Share Posted December 2, 2015 That game was awesome. I am baffled Moulson got a SO chance over Kane. Baffled. If memory serves, Kanes record in SO's is not very good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Samson's Flow Posted December 2, 2015 Report Share Posted December 2, 2015 Best Sabres game in ... how long? Pre-Pegula? Clinton in OSP's suite against Dallas with no local TV?I had an absolute blast. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwampD Posted December 2, 2015 Report Share Posted December 2, 2015 That was fckin awesome. Winning would have been even better, but I can't remember the last time I was that involved in a Sabres game. ... and the officiating had absolutely nothing to do with that loss. We just came up short. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We just came up short. Oh no doubt. They didn't call much but it was consistent both ways. In general I'd prefer a few more calls especially in the scoring areas but the calls did not dictate the outcome at all. We came up short in the carnival game Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stads Posted December 2, 2015 Report Share Posted December 2, 2015 (edited) I'm so ready for Gionta to be off the top 6 and Eichels line. He ruins every play by just giving away the puck instantly I think Gionta must have a clause in his contract where he gets paid more to play on the bottom 6 or sits during key situations. I have no other explanation as to why he gets so many important minutes. Edited December 2, 2015 by Stads Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iron Crotch Posted December 2, 2015 Report Share Posted December 2, 2015 ... and the officiating had absolutely nothing to do with that loss. We just came up short. When they started making calls it allowed us to get back into it. We scored back-to-back power play goals to tie it up. Detroit scored on their one power play to tie it up in the third. My complaint was if they put the whistles away and don't call anything (either way), teams have a much harder time erasing deficits. I don't think they were biased in either direction. We got away with a lot, honestly. I just don't like it when the call absolutely nothing is all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were blatent. The ones everyone was crying about are just not how the game is being called this year. And again, if it's consistant for both sides,… I like it.

Doohickie Posted December 2, 2015 Report Share Posted December 2, 2015 Helm is a dangerous player, his speed wreaks havoc That sounds familiar.... like I've heard it before.... We have dangerous players too. And frankly, Helm has lost a step or two since he broke into the league. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bcsaberks Posted December 2, 2015 Report Share Posted December 2, 2015 This team is good. If they miss playoffs by a few points it's on Bylsma and his dumb preference for veterans I mean Gionta. Crazy to play him in OT especially after penalty. Larsson among others must be shaking his head. Fun game to watch none the less. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SarasotaSabre Posted December 2, 2015 Report Share Posted December 2, 2015 I did not see the game but judging by all the anti-Gio chatter, it sounds like another less than Stellar Dental performance by him; how long is his leash? Not only is not contributing, it seems like he is now hurting the team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As far as the Sabres go, yeah the speed, youth, talent...a guy could get used to this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the one Kane goal, thought Jamie got his stick on the puck as well as Gionta Calling it now, 4 game win streak coming up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
