... Posted October 28, 2018 Report Share Posted October 28, 2018 They made CBJ earn the 2 points. Not a bad game to watch. If this is a valley in the line of their progression, it's not so bad. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thorny Posted October 28, 2018 Report Share Posted October 28, 2018 Glad to get the point on the road, especially with the comeback. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thewookie1 Posted October 28, 2018 Report Share Posted October 28, 2018 I'm disappointed we lost but feel even more reassured that the team is different. In the past they would of folded up their tents at the end of 2 and been easily swatted away by CBJ during the 3rd. Instead we tied it back up, had opportunities to score in 3rd to take the lead and just fell short on a sniper shot by Panarin. We got another point in the standings, EVERY POINT COUNTS!!!!! 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matter2003 Posted October 28, 2018 Report Share Posted October 28, 2018 That was a very entertaining game especially the first and third periods from a Sabre standpoint... This team has skill and speed...its actually fun watching them most nights 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andrew Amerk Posted October 28, 2018 Report Share Posted October 28, 2018 (edited) I’m okay with the point. A game that showed progress over teams of the past. Risto was still trash all game. No reason for him to have been out there with Skins and Jack in OT. Should’ve been Dahlin. Edited October 28, 2018 by Andrew Amerk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wyldnwoody44 Posted October 28, 2018 Report Share Posted October 28, 2018 Ullmark did not play well tonight, Hutton still owns the starting job at this point. The Sabres played a fun game and when they got down, they played hard. The PP, looks anemic, they got the one goal, but this game was sloppy from a bouncing Puck and players falling all over standpoint, that didn't help, idk if the ice was bad, but I noticed it a lot out there. Columbus is good (I think) and we kept up and could have easily won it, so I will take it and hope we continue this same style 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doohickie Posted October 28, 2018 Report Share Posted October 28, 2018 (edited) From HFBoards: Hey guys. Aside from both teams playing with invisible defense, I was honestly impressed with your guys’ game. Reading the mains this past week, I had saw many people claiming that you guys are legit and I can confirm. Again, I was really impressed. Definitely can see you guys pulling a 2017-2018 Avs and be this year’s sleeper team. Skinner looks rejuvenated. And Eichel was all over the ice tonight (in a good way). Ullmark had phenomenal stats coming into tonight and I truly believe that he is one of the most underrated goalies in the league without a doubt (putting aside tonight’s performance). Sincerely, a CBJ fan. Edited October 28, 2018 by Doohickie 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eleven Posted October 28, 2018 Report Share Posted October 28, 2018 What. A. Game. I'm so glad I stuck with this--and even happier that I went out to watch the third period. (My friends weren't too happy with me because I'd only talk during breaks.) I'll take that point on the road against a team that's third in it's division, especially with the pluck the Sabs showed coming back down by two. Yes, there was a depressing power play in there, and yes, they lost, but I'm happy overall. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At home after giving up a lead, well, maybe I want someone more seasoned. But if this set of circumstances happens again, I'd like to see Dahlin get a shot with Eichel and Skinner--or maybe Eichel and Pominville.

GASabresIUFAN Posted October 28, 2018 Report Share Posted October 28, 2018 (edited) Missed the game tonight because I was at GA/FLA game in Jacksonville. Went to watch the game when I got back to the hotel. On the NHL app I have it set to hide the scores, but f..ing NHL has a story showing the score in the headline. Kind of ruined the fun. Jerks. Happy for Mitts and another two goal comeback. Edited October 28, 2018 by GASabresIUFAN Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pastajoe Posted October 28, 2018 Report Share Posted October 28, 2018 They could try starting with 2 D; Eichel, Risto, and Dahlin. They’re just as fast as a forward, and perhaps they’d provide a bit better coverage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GASabresIUFAN Posted October 28, 2018 Report Share Posted October 28, 2018 Drive down from Saint Simons, about an hour North of Jacksonville. Worth it. Set up a fun tailgate and watched the chaos from there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JJFIVEOH Posted October 28, 2018 Report Share Posted October 28, 2018 I'm still being cautiously optimistic. Things are looking good right now. But, been through too many losing seasons to be proven otherwise. This team is looking good though. The Bills on the other hand are a train wreck.

nfreeman Posted October 28, 2018 Report Share Posted October 28, 2018 That was a really exciting game. CBJ is a very good, fast team. And Panarin is an elite scorer. I thought CBJ had more scoring chances overall, but the Sabres went toe-to-toe with them on quite a few occasions and Ullmark played well despite giving up 5. I sure would've liked to have seen some more OT hockey. Still: you have to like coming back again down 2 in the 3rd period on the road against an upper echelon team.

Randall Flagg Posted October 28, 2018 Report Share Posted October 28, 2018 I seriously respect Columbus as a team, and think they'd have several playoff series wins in the last few years had they not hit the cup winner in the first round every single time. I walked out the door at 4-2, so this was a pleasant result to come back to. Most of the names people were surprised about in a bad way today are the guys who were questionable in the pregame skate, so they're definitely banged up. Hope everyone is back to normal on Tuesday. I'll take this point for sure. Sandwich it with another win on Tuesday! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
