Modo it’s only 4 Losses. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

apuszczalowski Posted December 5, 2018 Report Share Posted December 5, 2018 I dont like the 3 on 3 OT, it's basically one side skating around looking to shoot while the other team bunches up in front of the net looking to block the shot until a puck gets loose and they can get it. It's like if you dont have the puck, your trying to kill a non existent penalty... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scottysabres Posted December 5, 2018 Report Share Posted December 5, 2018 2 minutes ago, TrueBlueGED said: I'll say. I mean sure it sucks to lose with 2.7 seconds left in OT, but I can't imagine being down after this game. We went toe-to-toe with one of the best 4 teams in the league, Eichel scored 2 goals, we controlled OT outside of 1 shift. All while playing most of the game with 5 D. I'm way more encouraged about the Sabres tonight than after some of the wins during the streak. This right here says it all. Our boys are hanging tough with top teams. Within striking distance every game. They're getting better. Players like Eichel, Risto, Dahlin.....they don't like to lose. Where many get pissed and despair, I see light at the end of the tunnel. All eyes now turn to Botterill. We have great reserves of young, developing talent in conjunction with high round draft picks. This team needs this season to develop, but, its leaders on the ice need to see Botterill believes in them. It is time to make a move Botterill. And not a rental, but a hockey trade. Imho.

GoPre Posted December 5, 2018 Report Share Posted December 5, 2018 (edited) Sucks Buffalo lost, but it’s nice to see Toronto fans saying good things about the Sabres. From HF Boards - Toronto - “I am very impressed by the sabres. That team is going to be really good for years. Dahlin is going to be a super star. He is just too good; really elite D-man. Reminds me of Lindstrom's shiftiness and calm” Edited December 5, 2018 by GoPre Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dudacek Posted December 5, 2018 Report Share Posted December 5, 2018 Objectively, that was a heck of a hockey game. I despise Auston Matthews. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thewookie1 Posted December 5, 2018 Report Share Posted December 5, 2018 Matthews and the Leafs can burn in hell. Why didn't Sobotka just stand up Matthews there; no reason not to take a penalty at that point. Great game by the Sabres though, they deserved to win the OT by far. Leafs got a lucky bounce on the tying goal and Matthews "caught" the puck on his goal and shouldn't of counted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wyldnwoody44 Posted December 5, 2018 Report Share Posted December 5, 2018 I had fun with the leafs fans around me, we all agreed it was a great game, which it was, I was hoping the boys would pull it off, but we outplayed them tonight, just bad bounces on 2 of their goals Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But man, there is way more good to pull out of this game than bad. I appreciate your attitude. I am grumpy bc I had a bad night as fan. I should be benched. I have a serious winning streak hangover; I could never get the radio and TV synched up; I was so pissed at the Toronto fans; the site was loading slow; and I just never had the feeling they were going to win. 2 minutes ago, Jacque Richard said: Somebody answer this.

Leafs got a lucky bounce on the tying goal and Matthews "caught" the puck on his goal and shouldn't of counted. I thought so too. The territorial advantage gained from the area of the Sabre's helmet to well behind the goal is way too much. You have to drop the puck immediately to the ice. 2 minutes ago, Brawndo said: There are quite a few season tickets owned by Ticket Brokers in the lower bowl, which contributes to the problem I'd love to drill into this.

I dont, just because Auston is so much better than Jack and that is just how it is imo. Jack isnt any bigger threat than any other talanted player, but he isnt a threat like Auston is, he is just so much better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
