LGR4GM Posted January 12, 2018 Author Report Share Posted January 12, 2018 I really like the guy. I’ve followed his career since he was drafted and he’s not only a good goalie, he’s a good person. Always keeping it light hearted. A few games ago Beautiful Erica asked him in his first star of the game interview “what was key to winning this game?”. He responds “well we got more goals than they did.” Love it! Seriously though, he needs to get back to Rochester ASAP. There’s a Cup to win. Yup. I've loved him for years. Hope his success continues.

Formerly Allan in MD Posted January 12, 2018 Report Share Posted January 12, 2018 Who knew Buffalo’s Best Defenseman And Goaltender we’re both in Rochester? We certainly knew they weren't in Buffalo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sabel79 Posted January 12, 2018 Report Share Posted January 12, 2018 Just finished the game on delay. I have some thoughts... 1. Watching Ullmark play makes me want to find XGMTM right now and set him on fire. A first for Lehner? You bastard. 2. EROD needs to be shot into the sun. He is legit the worst player in the NHL right now. My 6-year old is stronger on her skates. 3. KO is not dead yet. 4. Seriously you Dollar-Store Dwight Schrute, a first round pick for Lehner? Ugh. 5. Angry Risto is good Risto. 6. Scandella can stay. 7. Bobrovisky is legit the best goalie on earth. Torts owes dude his job. 8. Robin Lehner needs to go. God or whatever willing he does...

inkman Posted January 12, 2018 Report Share Posted January 12, 2018 What a breath of fresh air. Guhle is the Sabres best offensive dman regardless of where he is playing. Ullmark made me feel like a proud papa. Seeing him languish in the futility that was the Amerks until this season was difficult. I was genuinely excited for his every move and wasn't disappointed. What a game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
French Collection Posted January 12, 2018 Report Share Posted January 12, 2018 I watched the game and Ullmark's play gave me a feeling of confidence that I haven't felt in a long time. It just felt he was going to win. I like Lehner but I always have a sense of dread. It's a gut feeling but it's all I've got right now. I think he's our goalie next year. His interview was also very good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gramps Posted January 12, 2018 Report Share Posted January 12, 2018 Glad to see the symbolism was noticed and I would say he did add a spark. Best looking goaltender I've seen for Buffalo this year. But agree with all here who say send him back to Amerks to let him and Guhle continue to play in a positive winning atmosphere. Trade Lehner over the bye week and Linus/Guhle are now playing in a positive winning atmosphere for the Sabres. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LGR4GM Posted January 12, 2018 Author Report Share Posted January 12, 2018 "Dollar store Dwight Schrute" ... lmfao What a breath of fresh air. Guhle is the Sabres best offensive dman regardless of where he is playing. Ullmark made me feel like a proud papa. Seeing him languish in the futility that was the Amerks until this season was difficult. I was genuinely excited for his every move and wasn't disappointed. What a game.Ullmark is a study in positivity. His SHL team got relegated. His first year in north America was on a tire fire and yet here he is. His interviews have always been good. Love his positive attitude. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What a game.. Agree and Ghule has some wheels... Man if Sabres could draft Dhalin... that would be a helluv a combo or 1-2 punch. Dahlin.. Middlestadt.. Ulmark and CJ smith up next year could make a world of difference. Erod was aweful and Girgenson couldnt spell goal if you spotted him the g and the L. Jack needs a sniper to pass to...

spndnchz Posted January 12, 2018 Report Share Posted January 12, 2018 Guhle numerous times took off into the o zone and was offsides. He looked back like wtf? Let’s go! He forced the o zone play with no backup. He did have some brain fart moments on d tho Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He forced the o zone play with no backup. He did have some brain fart moments on d tho Yeh he did because the Sabres can't push the puck or skate with it up ice. He expected the puck to move but the plodders decided to stick handle. And then he got back on D as fast as he got up ice. He actually skated. Not perfect on D, but better than his first game. The guy can stick handle and chase the puck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dudacek Posted January 12, 2018 Report Share Posted January 12, 2018 And just like that Ullmark and Guhle made it fun again. Adversity is making Jack Eichel a better leader and a better hockey player. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A throwing the puck up the wall blindly when a point man is standing there to keep it in drives me up the wall too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pi2000 Posted January 12, 2018 Report Share Posted January 12, 2018 BUF played better in the d-zone, more active and engaged away from the puck which makes a big difference.... still gave up 45 shots but limited the grade A scoring chances and did a nice job collapsing around the Ullmark to clear rebounds. Ullmark played well, didn't give up any softies. You can tell he's mentally tough, he battles to find pucks through screens and doesn't get rattled in heavy traffic. Positionally sound, but it's easy to see where he needs to improve his game.... rebound control, finding pucks in tight, and lateral quickness. He left some awful juicy rebounds right back up the middle of the slot, and seemed to have trouble finding pucks in tight. The lateral quickness will improve as he gets accustomed to NHL game speed. He has all the tools. Thought Eichel took his game to another level tonight. He was noticeable every shift, moving his feet, creating space, getting involved away from the puck in the d-zone and on the back-check. Need to see more of that.

That Aud Smell Posted January 12, 2018 Report Share Posted January 12, 2018 They don’t ask how, they ask how many I’ll second this. Good (great) players earn those EN opportunities. They’re not freebies; they’re correlated to strong play. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sabres Fan in NS Posted January 12, 2018 Report Share Posted January 12, 2018 I bet the Sabres play the best all round game in 2 years for Linus. A big 4 - 1 win tonight. Linus with the 'Miller shut out'. Not only that, the Sabres score 3 on the PP and one EN. GO SABRES!! Pretty damn close. :flirt: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
