It's a Sabre pastime to pass out of dangerous scoring areas. 

That might have been the first time a non Eichel line has come within a mile of scoring tonight. And it still wasn't that close

He gets the puck around 10-12 feet all alone and passes it to the point?  So many stupid decisions by him.

So Rob Ray says Dahlin has been benched since the Ennis goal....the only problem is that Dahlin was not on the ice when Ennis made it 2 -2.  Anybody else see anything as to why he was benched?  Did something happen in the 2nd period?

 

He fanned on a few pucks, but I didn't think he was having a bad game. I distinctly remember a couple of very nice defensive plays, a pass breakup in the slot that would have been a goal otherwise, and a gorgeous theft of a Senator forward. But Ralph must have seen something he didn't like

Reference a number of games this year where Dahlin does something boneheaded. This is a chance for him to think about some stuff before he sees the press box.

I saw those fans.  An Ottawa player fanned on a shot very shortly afterward in the same area.  I noticed, too, that the puck hit some snow or something over there after being shot into the Sabres' zone.  I think the ice is probably pretty crappy over in that area.

I thought he was actually playing better than he had been.

Sam has also done it at least twice, and he's very sure-handed. So I doubt that's why Ralph did it.
