That Aud Smell Posted January 8, 2017 Report Share Posted January 8, 2017 Btw, Franson utter hot garbage for so much of the game, BUT, he sprung Foligno for his goal and was competent in the final 4 minutes of the game when Sabres were holding on.

PASabreFan Posted January 8, 2017 Report Share Posted January 8, 2017 I agree with this. I feel amazing! And Sabres win! (Going out for more skating tonight. Bigger pond this time.) There he is. I just said in another thread you were a goner. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randall Flagg Posted January 8, 2017 Report Share Posted January 8, 2017 ^ 314 or 315; I just followed the guy who bought the tickets for the group. Must've been 315, because we were more on the turn. About 7 or 8 rows up. Shoots-twice end - fun place to be for the 3rd! The prevalence of kids makes more a fun crowd. We were two or three rows behind you! Wow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
woods-racer Posted January 8, 2017 Report Share Posted January 8, 2017 Have seen that hit 10x times already, its exciting :D It energized the team and crowd in a way that no staged fight could have. Completely spur of the moment team adrenaline rush. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doohickie Posted January 8, 2017 Report Share Posted January 8, 2017 What the Jets said about the hit: Paul Maurice: "I don't have a problem with the hit. They hit heads. It was a straight-on hit."Blake Wheeler: "It looked OK. Caught him in a bad spot." Thanks, 3-3 it was indeed. Just rewatched and everything happened so fast.Foligno goal- Girgs goal- McCabe hitAll within 37 second of gameplay. It didn't seem that quick, probably because of the review of the Foligno goal.

Beer Posted January 8, 2017 Report Share Posted January 8, 2017 It energized the team and crowd in a way that no staged fight could have. Completely spur of the moment team adrenaline rush. Great hit but I really do hope Laine is ok. He's going to be fun to watch throughout his career. If the Sabres miraculously won the #1 pick last year, he was who I wanted.

Iron Crotch Posted January 8, 2017 Report Share Posted January 8, 2017 Best game I've attended in a looooong time. An aside: someone get Jack some ProActiv. With a $925,000 per year salary, the kid should be able to afford a Dermatologist. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Claude Balls Posted January 8, 2017 Report Share Posted January 8, 2017 (edited) Best game I've attended in a looooong time. An aside: someone get Jack some ProActiv. Aw really? After a performance like that you have to bring Jack's acne into play? I think his pubed like red hair is more of an issue. What a game though. Will be interesting to see how they play in the next game. Will there be a carryover effect? I sure hope so.

Either way, he was probably the best one, yeah. Franson hasn't been bad all season I think, his lack of speed kills him sometimes. A much better Franson than last year though. But I'd have him as 6/7 D anytime playing like this. Problem is he is slotted into our Top 4. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nfreeman Posted January 8, 2017 Report Share Posted January 8, 2017 That hit wasn't no picnic for McCabe either.IMG_20170107_162128.jpg Wow. Gruesome. 15-2-4 when they score 2 or more 2 or more? Not "more than 2" goals? Assuming you're right, that's pretty remarkable. I wonder what the league stats on that look like. Getting cut in the scrum is painful. Very nice. I don't have much to add to the game discussion generally, but I will say that Winnipeg's 3rd goal directly resulted from Lehner sloppily depositing, after a weak shot from the half-wall, a big juicy rebound right onto Armia's stick on the doorstep.

carpandean Posted January 8, 2017 Report Share Posted January 8, 2017 Looking at the game summary, Byfuglien* officially received: 2 minutes for Cross Checking against Robin Lehner 2 minutes for Roughing against Robin Lehner 2 minutes for Unsportsmanlike Conduct against Robin Lehner 10 minute Misconduct against Robin Lehner Robin got 2 for Roughing against Byfuglien. * Could you imagine how many misspellings there would be of his last name if he were ever traded to the Sabres?! I looked like Deadpool after Negasonic Teenage Warhead pointed out that Ajax had escaped, going back-and-forth with NHL.com to get it right.

Jsixspd Posted January 8, 2017 Report Share Posted January 8, 2017 Wow, amazing game. 2017 has been good for the Sabres so far. 3 games and 5 points. And yes, Jack, 6 would be better. But no team ever finishes the season with 164 points either. But on the negative side - will it last? Even bad teams have good streaks - so the next 3 games could be 1 point earned and 5 left on the table. And Lehner let in his almost obligatory 3 goals this game. One of the goals (can't recall if 2nd or 3rd Jets goal) he left the rebound laying right there a foot or two in front of him and it got hammered into the net - that was frustrating to see. Just looked at Lehner's game log - last time he had a 1 goal game was late November. Since then he's had 9 three goal games, and three 2 goal games.

Got to get a goaltending coach... find the Tampa coach that turned Bishop around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
