PASabreFan Posted March 6, 2020 Report Share Posted March 6, 2020 I think we're at the point, this season and overall, where some comic relief is needed. Let's embrace the untapped entertainment possibilities of rooting for this woebegone team. Take Ristolainen's ghost check. Don't be mad, be glad. It was hilarious. What are some of your favorite comically bad moments of this and recent seasons? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marvin Posted March 6, 2020 Report Share Posted March 6, 2020 Sabrepede. It is one of the funniest things I have ever seen on the ice. 4 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randall Flagg Posted March 6, 2020 Report Share Posted March 6, 2020 (edited) This was a while ago, probably 2016-17, but I vividly remember this play in LA where somebody sprung Deslauriers on a rush, he and Ennis were flying down the ice with purpose right towards the LA defensemen. Ennis was about 10 feet to Nic's right. The rush abruptly ended when Deslauriers passed the puck, not to Tyler's stick blade, but into the crook of his elbow - a play exceptionally more difficult to do on purpose than a pass to the tape from that close. It might sound like nothing but it was really funny at the time Edited March 6, 2020 by Randall Flagg 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It might sound like nothing but it was really funny at the time I remember one of the small, but funny moments because it turned me against Bylsma. I didn't believe Pens' fans' complaints about his system until I went to a preseason game against Columbus before the 2015-6 season. After the 4th time that a defenceman just flipped the puck out of the defencive zone when he was not under pressure and had open teammates he could have head manned to, I started laughing at the system like the villain in a black-and-white serialised melodrama. Sadly, that season was the high point of the current dry spell. I can't believe it has got worse, let alone this much worse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shrader Posted March 6, 2020 Report Share Posted March 6, 2020 Comically bad moments can work out in our favor sometimes too. There was the puck in Mike Smith's pants and the goal Legwand scored while he was on the bench. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Randall Flagg Posted March 6, 2020 Report Share Posted March 6, 2020 Didn't Girgensons get a delay of game penalty within the last two years for shooting the puck over the glass on the far end of the arena? Like not only did he clear the zone, he cleared teh zone over the opposing goalie's head 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Girgensons is the guy with the multiple three-stooges shifts, where a variety of physical follies rapidly pile up against him, usually from his own teammates. Shifts where he runs into his own man, and then promptly takes a dump-in attempt off the face 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scottysabres Posted March 7, 2020 Report Share Posted March 7, 2020 I'm reserving my funniest moment for when someone throw's a rubber ***** on the ice during game play. Should have happened 7, 8 seasons ago. Disappointed in my fellow Sabres fanatics for not doing it yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
