That is where HCPH starts losing me and I wish we had a more aggressive, adventurous coach. This is the feeling I’m starting to get as well. Seems like he’d rather be “safe” instead of seeking a “spark.” The Dahlin debate supports this, if he’s telling Dahlin to not run. If the lines falter early on in the game, I’m curious to see how long it takes him to make adjustments. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iron Crotch Posted October 6, 2018 Report Share Posted October 6, 2018 Unfortunately, I can't justify spending a Saturday night watching this team (yet?), so I'll DVR the game. Regardless of the outcome, the Sabres needs to show a little "fire" and "passion" on the ice this evening. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SABRES 0311 Posted October 6, 2018 Report Share Posted October 6, 2018 Any thoughts about switching Ristolainen and Dahlin? Ristolainen and McCabe have played together before and I would be interested to see how Dahlin matches up. Nothing permanent but more of a trial for a period or so.

Not sure if it's coaching or if it's Dahlin himself surveying the league. I recall seeing him go toward the Bruin's net once during that game. His defensive decisions are solid, it seems, except when he makes an error with the puck. I think some of it has to do with ice surface and Dahlin needing to get used to it. There's one analysis of his game I read or saw, can't remember, where it was noted that after he gets the puck, he doesn't look at it. I wonder if the smaller surface combined with the more aggressive play of the league chews up the ice surface and this is getting in the way of what Dahlin is used to doing. My guess would be it's Dahlin himself showing restraint. I think he's the smartest player on our team. I looked like he wanted to get a feel for what he could pull off in the preseason, and realized he's going to have to take it up another notch for his tricks to work in the NHL. He looked to be playing conservative the other night... but just wait until he see some open ice or a defender on their heels. I couldn't be more impressed with this kid.

One REAL little thing he did Saturday that impressed me was that as he was going off the ice for a line change while Ristolainen had the puck, from Risto's perspective it would've looked like he was joining the rush & uncovered by a Bruin (& thus a target for a pass), but he waived "no" at Risto & then continued up ice towards the bench & Risto held the puck. It was little but it avoided a turnover while the game was still 1-0. Not sure I've seen a guy tell someone on the ice that explicitly that he was heading off before.

As a Bruin was entering the zone, Dahlin choked up on his stick and made a weak attempt at a poke check. I assumed he was trying to fake out the Bruin into thinking he had more room to stickhandle with. Then, Dahlin quickly slid his stick to normal hand positioning and tried another poke check. It was so fast, and so minor, and nothing came of it. I was still impressed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That crowd is going to be even more unforgiving until that first goal goes into the net. And it better not be when it's five to nothing already.
