nfreeman Posted November 3, 2019 Author Report Share Posted November 3, 2019 This is turning into a really good game. Sabres have found their game. Islanders are a really smart, well-coaches team. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Torpedo Forecheck Posted November 3, 2019 Report Share Posted November 3, 2019 The PP needs adjustment just getting puck to Jack and everyone stand in their area has been ineffective. Run PP through Dahlin for awhile 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They seem so tight, you wonder if they're thinking, "Here we go again." My issue is that they still have a roster that you'd expect to have trouble scoring, relative to other teams, when teams tighten up. No matter what is going on mentally. Which is why my hopes for Ralph have never got as high as others' They're already showing all the signs of struggling immensely to create the volume of good chances other teams do night in and night out, since the first week of the season. Like last year they can do it when everything is hectic and crazy in October, but teams always baten down the hatches with this stuff 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ubkev Posted November 3, 2019 Report Share Posted November 3, 2019 (edited) Maybe it's because it's a big night in the boxing and MMA world's, maybe it's because I'm filled with rage at having to work 9 hours tomorrow, but I really, really want a sabre to punch someone in the face.

triumph_communes Posted November 3, 2019 Report Share Posted November 3, 2019 (edited) This game is so frustrating. They’re dominating play and generating chances but can’t finish. Going to bite them in the ass Vesey looks good on the top line. Oloffson seems to be fitting well on the 2nd line.

Reinhart has tallied more points than usual, to start, to be sure, but make no mistake, we are seeing the usual slow-start-Sam. I'm sure he'll pick it up.

He said he was paying too much attention listening to RJ and Wieland and that's just his way of saying "nice to you have in the booth". Nothing Rayzor is going to say in those 5 seconds adds squat to the broadcast anyway. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
