Randall Flagg Posted September 17, 2019 Report Share Posted September 17, 2019 21 minutes ago, dudacek said: Be interesting to see how that translates against an NHL team. He's been one of the standouts tonight, IMO. Rare combination of quickness and no wasted movement. That goal was exactly the kind of mental presence he never showed last year, and he made nice pass through the crease to Skinner on the PP. And he looks stronger. Like how he and Cozens have gone to the net. Again, hard to tell against an AHL team. As an aside, what do the Penguins hope to learn from dressing a lineup like this? Besides last year's preseason of course, in which he was also excellent 18 minutes ago, dudacek said: I hear what you're saying, but how often did you see the Sabres move the puck through the neutral zone like that last year. I've been hoping that Johansson and Miller would help with that. Nice to see Vesey can too. Fairly often, honestly, it's just most NHL RHD don't look like the Pens' did there ? Our transition game last year gets dumped on too much (not saying that's what you're doing here) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dudacek Posted September 17, 2019 Report Share Posted September 17, 2019 Dahlin with pretty much the first brutal play of the evening for Buffalo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randall Flagg Posted September 17, 2019 Report Share Posted September 17, 2019 Honestly that Eichel shift was the least-encouraging one of the night - the way Vesey and Sheary just sat there in front of the net while Jack and Dahlin and Joki were forced to go 3 on 3/4 with very little room. Move around guys! Make some lanes! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thorny Posted September 17, 2019 Report Share Posted September 17, 2019 This illustrates sometimes you still need your goalie to steal a few saves, even if mistakes are being made. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randall Flagg Posted September 17, 2019 Report Share Posted September 17, 2019 (edited) Some "home game." Typical Pegulas!!!! (1000000000% joking) The score of this game is roughly as relevant to how I feel about this game as the color of the Sabres' jerseys is I would be so depressed right now if Skinner had left Edited September 17, 2019 by Randall Flagg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Randall Flagg Posted September 17, 2019 Report Share Posted September 17, 2019 "Thinking instead of reacting" is 100% going to be the new "five man attack, activating the D" Like it's fine, but if Rob is gonna talk about it 8 times per game it's going to drive me nuts Was a single one of Skinner's 40 goals a slap shot? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
