That 2nd goal against was due to Guhle coming to the bench late. He started heading to the bench as the play moved to the benchside boards, but then stayed at the point watching the eventual goal scorer right until Bahstan got control. As that happened, he headed to the bench & the D-man broke into the zone. Reinhart tried to catch him but was a step behind. Tough luck for Guhle. He'll be smarter in that situation next time he's in it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
North Buffalo Posted December 17, 2018 Report Share Posted December 17, 2018 Good win, Larry and Girgenson played tough all game and Bogo was a beast. Hunwick not bad for first game... rest has been said about Jacks line. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's a key part of the best 1st line we've had since the Frenchies Ehh...I don't think so...LaFontaine, Mogilny and Andreychuk was something out of this world in '92-93... Lafontaine had 40 points after 18 games and 100 by his 55th game... Goal totals for the line mates that year? LaFontaine 53, Andreychuck 54, Mogilny 76 But that's not taking anything away from these guys, they are fantastic...a little bit of a different era back then but those numbers were prodigious even back then... Those 3 accounted for 54.6%(183) of the Sabres' 335 goals that year. The Eichel/Skinner/Samson line has accounted for 43.8%(43) of the teams 105 goals this year... In 1992-1993 they also played 84 games Edited December 17, 2018 by matter2003 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Pilut might be ready to be a contributor at the NHL level already...he has made several very nice plays in the offensive zone leading to goals...his defense has been a little shaky but overall he has played very well...sucks he is going to be out a while...

Too soon to say. But STL gets to wait until after the lottery to decide which year's pick to give. So... if they win the lottery this year, we're getting next year's. If they get the 8th slot... that's when they have an interesting decision to make. How cool is it that JBot didn't need to give up one of our firsts for Skinner?

Would agree. He seems to be their 6th best D-man (5th should Scandella not return to form.) But I'd rate their 7&8 each as a 6 and based on only a single game the 9 looks like a 6/7 as well.

Pimlach Posted December 17, 2018 Report Share Posted December 17, 2018 I thought Hunwick played well. Steady Guhle had a good first game and should now move ahead of Tennyson on the depth chart. I rank the defense like this (current ability, not potential): Risto, Dahlin, McCabe, Bogo, Scandella, Beaulieu, Pilut, Nelson, Hunwick, Guhle, Tennyson i see Pilut and Hunwick trending up in the rankings. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's very encouraging to see the Sabres have this many competent defensemen when they are needed for a game or two...and by competent I mean they don't puke all over themselves when they are on the ice...

Popular Post dudacek Posted December 17, 2018 Popular Post Report Share Posted December 17, 2018 (edited) Eichel, Ristolainen, Reinhart, Larsson and Girgensons have been through a lot of ***** pretty much their entire careers. ***** teams and ***** Internet comments. I’m glad they are on my team and I am glad they survived to be among the reasons we can enjoy this year.

Tennyson is 3rd pairing of their 2nd best lineup assembly. There aren't many teams that can get through 5 pairings without the serious sphincter clench happening. The Sabres are one of the few (finally). The ONLY glaring hole on this roster is the one we knew would be there back around July 1 when THAT trade was made.
