gomper Posted June 7, 2021 Report Share Posted June 7, 2021 And everyone thought Bednar was enraged after game 3. His style is either going to get these guys to play to their capability in the 3rd, or continue to get beat to every puck. God help the garbage cans in that room. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are in total agreement here. I am still of the mind that a team is built from the net out. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoss Posted June 7, 2021 Report Share Posted June 7, 2021 21 minutes ago, Eleven said: This is the thing. It's not "built for the playoffs." It's Carey Price. And I am enjoying it. Mike Smith did it for Arizona back when they were still Phoenix. Craig Anderson did it a few years ago, too. Goalies can change the landscape of the playoffs when they’re on.

Pimlach Posted June 7, 2021 Report Share Posted June 7, 2021 Alex Pietrangelo blocks a shot and limps off, and comes back and sets up the 3rd goal. Really fine defenseman who wore a “C” for a SC winner in St Louis. What a nice pickup for Vegas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It STARTS with goaltending and builds out from there rather than top down with goalie as an afterthought as has been the Sabres way of recent years. Every team we had that ever did anything had goaltending. Until they get a game changer we are going to struggle to beat the good teams 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gomper Posted June 7, 2021 Report Share Posted June 7, 2021 Game 5 will be epic. If the Avs can't respond to the Vegas speed and tenacity....well, they got a big problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wyldnwoody44 Posted June 7, 2021 Report Share Posted June 7, 2021 I went to a game in Vegas a couple years ago and it was super fun, spend the time beforehand drinking at Ceasers Palace and you're right there. Kinda like tailgating. Also what happened to the Avs? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kristian Posted June 7, 2021 Report Share Posted June 7, 2021 Completely stunned by the Jets lack of effort through the last two games. Sure, they’ll push and shove after whistles, but the Habs are outskating and outhustling them period after period. And they score dirty goals to boot. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gatorman0519 Posted June 7, 2021 Report Share Posted June 7, 2021 (edited) Vegas gets it. Sports are entertainment. They designed the entire franchise, especially the arena, to maximize the effect of the entertainment experience. Our sad franchise and owner offers nothing of the sort. We basically survive off of fans passion. We have a lame arena and a lame and embarrassing fan experience. I mean fake and misspelled jersey's on alumni night?

That team isn't going to beat freaking Winnipeg (as you say) because Hellebyuck is better than Price. And that's it.

Are you sure it's not Powers? I have made my point in his thread. He will be a stud D. It would be unwise, IMO, to trade the pick, or not to use it on Power. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
