calti Posted December 19, 2018 Report Share Posted December 19, 2018 wow just checked score--they did it again. I had a strong feeling theyd have another philly game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gatorman0519 Posted December 19, 2018 Report Share Posted December 19, 2018 I am confident JBot sees all this and is measuring us year #2. Unfortunately losing O Reilly really hurting us in games like these. I know there were reasons he had to go but now we have to find a true #2. St Louis the clear winner of that trade so far. Move Mitts to #3 and let him develop. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CallawaySabres Posted December 19, 2018 Report Share Posted December 19, 2018 I feel a 3 game losing streak before things get good again. Had to at least get 1 point out of this mess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We excuse him but we get on Tennyson or Guhle for less. 2 hours ago, Beer said: I agree. He looked fine during the Boston game. Based on comments, I was expecting much worse but he’s not been a liability. I wonder if it was a Bogo situation: He had lost a step due to injury but his surgery made him better.

Perspective. He's a kid and he's going to make a mistake now and again. It's part of the learning process. Only a big deal if he's still doing it 2-3 years from now. Unless I missed it, I don't see you lambasting Reinhart for the feeble backcheck (lack of) attempt which resulted in their earlier goal. Perspective indeed. For me, they lost their game after the Skinner takedown. To me this is shades of Miller/Lucic and needs to be addressed. If not, we will start seeing more and more teams taking it to us. Speed and skill will only work for you against that with a lethal PP and since we didn't have that, we needed to respond. If not the next shift, certainly when it was 4-2 or in the least after the empty net goal we should have been laying it on them. But, aside from Bogo, we got nothing in the physical department (Beaulieu maybe if he was playing). 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully when the D is healthy, Dahlin can get a little sheltered. He needs to learn where it won't end up in the back of the net all the time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. If you're willing to overlook the hilariously fluky nature of the first two goals, then perhaps chastise him for the penalty shot. But there are many other culprits, beyond dumb luck, responsible for the result tonight. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
North Buffalo Posted December 19, 2018 Report Share Posted December 19, 2018 So what the hell happened. I went to sleep at 2-1 Sabres, woke up for my shift to 2-5 doo doo.... what a load... Sabres fall apart???? disappointing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wyldnwoody44 Posted December 19, 2018 Report Share Posted December 19, 2018 I just watched the game on record.... I haven't been this into and angry at a hockey game In a long time.. You cannot let their guy go after your top guy like that, considering it started because of a play on their top guy, inexcusable and it cost this team the game. He also should have gotten a 10 min misconduct as well 2nd, I saw a ton of uncalled interference in the game yet the stripes are calling tiny "slashes" I'm not a fan, it seems to me that when the officiating is called geared towards a more playoff setting, we don't do well. We simply aren't physical enough to hold up. Guhle looks absolutley terrible, send him down, Thompson made the 4th line worse, put Erod back on it. Middle 6, will be the detriment of this team going forward, we need some aggressive changes, they started smothering our first line as the game went on. I don't blame this one on Hutton really, just some bad luck, some lack of skating and some brain dead decision especially in the D zone. Time to see this team regroup, if I'm the other teams in the league, I'm looking at this game and trying to replicate what Florida did, we played frustrated. And yes I'm still Fn pissed about the Yandle thing 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
