I want a better effort tomorrow. Not kidding, I was actually hoping for the Islanders to score a few more on us today, maybe they are waiting for prime time to help us out.

DarthEbriate Posted March 6, 2021 Report Share Posted March 6, 2021 And this was against a fellow stifling/low-event team. Can you imagine what we'll look like when we face teams that are now in midseason form and want to try and score? The Pens, the Caps, Boston... those teams are going to pulverize us. Pulverize?!

No matter who he’s playing with or against, no matter how bad or good he plays, he cannot score a goal. I don't really mean that post. I just mean, I know you hate Skinner, and I've never seen you post quite like you do when talking about Skinner haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not about disagreement, but the complete bafflement at the fact that it isn't more of a topic, full stop. It's the "I feel like im taking crazy pills" feeling, I think, that you are noticing.

But Trotz has them play defense and counter and they completely took their foot off the gas in the third once they instantly got the goal back to make it 5-2. Other more offensive-minded teams are going to run-and-gun and get their points stats. Ovie is going to be psyched to go for hat tricks against Hutton/JJ.

I love me a Foligno! LOL In fact I'm pretty sure that even at the age of 62, If Mike Foligno laced them up during practice, skated on the ice, dropped the gloves, and challenged the entire team, that most of them would be afraid of him. 😂 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any team takes its foot of the gas at 5-2 late in the third and plays defense. That's why the Sabres made sure they scored 9 by the early third against Philly in 2006.

If Skinner was drafted by us we'd have warrants out for his arrest. Edited March 6, 2021 by Thorny Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cal Naughton Jr Posted March 6, 2021 Report Share Posted March 6, 2021 Well at least we are scoring goals. Just last week we were averaging zero goals a game. The last 2 games we’ve doubled that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's intra-division games only, this year, so teams that aren't so good don't always beat the Sabs (just often, not always), while teams that are good almost always do.

I had to look back --- Gm2 at Buffalo we needed the fans happy. And in Gm6 Philly fans needed the release of those boos. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
