Porsche Posted February 16, 2017 Report Share Posted February 16, 2017 Well Noone started one, may as well pop my GDT cherry on an easy game. Will it be easy? Sabres host the 2016/2017 Tank candidate of the year Colorado at Keybank Center. Like every game from here on out this game is a must win. Sabres are 4-5-1 in their last 10 games, coming off a gritty win against Ottawa Tuesday night. We are still 5 points from Toronto for the last WC spot. Let go buffalo!

pi2000 Posted February 16, 2017 Report Share Posted February 16, 2017 Should win, but they won last game so I'll say OT loss. they tie it up late after playing like hot garbage for 50min then lose to Nathan McKinnon in OT. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Winston Posted February 16, 2017 Report Share Posted February 16, 2017 8-2 Victory for Buffalo Eichel gets 5 pts Grant scores his 1st Kane scores his 19th & 20th Bailey gets a goal Risto puts up 3 pts ROR gets a goal Avs scorers Grigs Duchene I think it we got a 5-2 lead, Bylsma would put both Lehner and Nilsson out there. Have them stack their pads, then stack on top of each other horizontally to cover the entire net. He's also position Risto and Falk at each goal post. I envision them stationed like two giant Doberman pinschers. Go ahead, Avs! Fire 56 third period shots. Nothing is getting past this Bylsma Barbican!!

I forgot about Grigs. They have Zads too don't they? What paring is he on I wonder? First pair, per DailyFaceOff. Oh, and Grigo is 2nd line LW. For whatever that's worth.

RonHextallsShoulderPads Posted February 16, 2017 Report Share Posted February 16, 2017 they can't generate goals and then, at the other end, they allow more goals then they generate. a pattern starts to emerge in their schedule wherein when those conditions are present, they tend to lose those games.

Derrico Posted February 16, 2017 Report Share Posted February 16, 2017 Zadorov - 0G 10A in 53GP. Pi will like this, he's a -18. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doohickie Posted February 16, 2017 Report Share Posted February 16, 2017 Zadorov - 0G 10A in 53GP. Pi will like this, he's a -18. Well, but if he's in the top pairing, something something opposition quality something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mustache of God Posted February 16, 2017 Report Share Posted February 16, 2017 I'm not sure how I feel about tonight. They're going up against a tank tonight, an easy two points, right? The game is on a Thursday, this team can't win on Thursdays. We won last game, previous win/loss patterns dictate we will lose this game. If the team has any chance of making the playoffs these games vs. the avalanche and coyotes are MUST wins so I'd expect the team to come out with urgency, right? I see two scenarios: A. The team plays well and has an easy victory against the worst team in the league and keep pace in the wildcard hunt B. The Sabres come out flat and get embarrassed on National television, prompting management to fire DDB and sparking the team to an unlikely win-streak to close the season, get into the playoffs and bring a cup home to Buffalo. Win-win, really. Go Sabres! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drunkard Posted February 16, 2017 Report Share Posted February 16, 2017 (edited) I hate that the game is on NBC Sports. Directv has a free preview of Center Ice this week so instead of getting the home feed it will be blacked out in favor of the NBC jackoffs.

Directv has a free preview of Center Ice this week so instead of getting the home feed it will be blacked out in favor of the NBC jackoffs. Always true with CI, even for those of us who actually pay. The one thing I wish they would do as part of CI (and I might even pay more for this) is to include the pre- and post-game shows. Even better if it included all NHL-related content on the locals like MSG. Franson no go, Kane practicing with Eichel and Reinhart Good to hear the Kane news.
