Zamboni Posted August 18, 2020 Report Share Posted August 18, 2020 I’ve liked ROR ever since he came into the league. And continue to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PerreaultForever Posted August 18, 2020 Report Share Posted August 18, 2020 Maybe ROR got confused in the first couple games with Scandella on the roster he had Sabres flashbacks and momentarily lost his love of hockey again. and then he woke up.... You know, a lot of people talk about winning cultures, band of brothers, team as a family and so forth but (and hate them all you want to) watching those Bruins and the way they pull together and rise up as a team, the energy and emotion, the 2nd, 3RD and 4th efforts, it is an enviable culture. Probably the best in the league. I imagine Eichel sits in front of his TV thinking why oh why can't I be on THAT team? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Randall Flagg Posted August 18, 2020 Report Share Posted August 18, 2020 I've never seen a team shoot pucks wide from such glorious locations at the rate Dallas does. If their hands and aim were a bit better, they'd have swept this series Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randall Flagg Posted August 18, 2020 Report Share Posted August 18, 2020 With ROR on the ice 5v5, the Blues are outshooting the Canucks 55-11 and out-chancing them 16-3. ROR has turned the Pettersson line into an imitation of the tank Sabres Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s admittedly a bit of an added sting and irony that ROR is at his clear, dominant best when the games matter most. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In 1975, they were outscored 29-21 by Montreal while winning the series in 6 games: 6-5 (OT), 4-2, 0-7, 2-8, 5-4 (OT), 4-3. Games 3 and 4 were as lopsided as the score. The Sabres had not lost to the Habs all year and did not realise that the Canadiens might not fold up and die. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
