hockeyhound Posted October 31, 2018 Report Share Posted October 31, 2018 (edited) What are they saying to each other between periods? Why can't the coach get this team motivated after the 1st period? They came out unchanged and just as undisciplined as they did the previous period. "Coasting." That is the one word that came to mind throughout this game. If John Tortorella was coaching this team, they would've come out a different team in the 2nd period.

This was a crappy game, to be sure. I mean, it was deadass boring no matter which team you root for. But is it necessarily symptomatic of a larger problem?

Randall Flagg Posted October 31, 2018 Report Share Posted October 31, 2018 These would be my 3v3 OT combos with our current roster structure: Jack, Jeff, Dahlinif we've reached this point and haven't scored, we probably lose Casey, Sam, Bogosian Back to Jack, brief life definitely lost if we need to get to here I'm pretty convinced that if we traded Risto for something and put Pilut into our top 6 the unit as a whole would be better, which is why I posted about trading Risto all summer When others come up, I'd do Jack, Nylander, Dahlin Casey, Skinner, Pilut 1 minute ago, TrueBlueGED said: Bogosian.

I'm not sure what to think about this team right now. Part of me says yes they're a different team and they learned from last years mistakes. However, after watching tonights game you can't help but be concerned. I want to be optimistic and positive but, these kinds of games just open up old wounds, and leave me scratching my head. Wow. None the less, Let's Go Buffalo! We're with you during the good, the bad, and the ugly. Go Sabres! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randall Flagg Posted October 31, 2018 Report Share Posted October 31, 2018 I think it's important that these guys get as pissed as we are, but more, and then channel that into their preparation, to take it all out on the Otters. Too often in the past they get grumpy and play all aloof and uncaring after an effort like this, like when I screwed up in HS, got deservedly reprimanded by my parents, and then acted like an indignant clown for a week, huffing about like I was in the right and "taking the high road" That's probably a ridiculous metaphor but it fits the vibe I get from the Sabres of recent years so much All I mean is, let's see this "locker room culture change" in action on Thursday boys, eh? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bogosian is playing a smarter brand of hockey this season than Risto I might go Sheary rather than Mittelstadt on that 2nd 3 man unit, but agree w/ keeping Ristolainen off the ice 3v3. Had really hoped Dahlin would be the 4th to start OT. And agree w/ everyone else that it was very likely the Sabres would lose when he took that puck into the corner.

Dahlin created the only dangerous scoring chance we got in the 3rd or OT, that pass to Sheary. He got the only clean PP zone entry, despite that unit getting only ~40 seconds. We would have won that game if he had been on the first unit, and those passes were finding Jack or Sam rather than one of our worst players since game 5.

SwampD Posted October 31, 2018 Report Share Posted October 31, 2018 Although this kinda sucked, it's hard for me to get too upset on a Tuesday in October. And I'll take 8 out of ten points all day every day. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would like to see Dahlin carry the puck all the way up the ice on the PP instead of gaining all that momentum only to make a no-look drop pass. They drafted the guy because he can carry a puck up ice and make amazing play's in and through the opposing player's. Just let the kid fly, He's got skills.

Randall Flagg Posted October 31, 2018 Report Share Posted October 31, 2018 Our best lines this season have been the ones we won 3 games with before Erod was out. Skinner - Jack - Pominville Rodrigues - Mitts - KO Sheary - Sobotka - Reinhart Zemgus - Berglund - Larry These guys all tilted the ice for 180 straight minutes of hockey. Get these lines back on Thursday please. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
