But didn't the player coming off the bench have the puck before the exiting player made it to the bench? Marty just broke it down. He was on the ice and touched the puck before the guy went off completely. It was close but the player had an advantage on Asplund by a few steps because Asplund didn't know the player came on behind him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carmel Corn Posted November 7, 2021 Report Share Posted November 7, 2021 Hard to watch. I know the players might appreciate the coaching staff being forgiving of taking risks and making mistakes, but this team is making some of the most basic and bonehead mistakes that high schoolers are taught. Maybe Donnie should think about sitting some players to make them think harder. It's nice they don't fear being punished, but they would feel a lot better if they actually win by playing simple basic hockey. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We know what they are, a bottom dweller, but tonight should have shown growth and it didn’t. They come home after poor road trip and lose. Terrible in the first ten minutes and in the last ten. I just can’t be mad at the obviously terrible team for being terrible. Would a not-terrible team throw that game away? Absolutely not; that’s what terrible teams do, which is what this team is. Also, and I will never stop yelling at this cloud… 3-on-3 overtime is just the absolute worst, and indeed does make me angry. Just have them shoot free-throws or something equally related to the rest of the game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PerreaultForever Posted November 7, 2021 Report Share Posted November 7, 2021 el foldo.............. "hard to watch" summed it up well. I mean Detroit was not good. Not at all. There's no energy on the team, there's no energy in the building (justifiably) it's just a limp and lame bunch of nothing. Thing that stands out for me the most, and maybe it's a good representative moment for what this team is and what it has been for many years now. On the first goal, they are banging away at the goalie and Hinostroza is just standing there about 3 feet away watching and doing absolutely nothing. If I'm coaching that team he sits for the rest of the night and probably the next game but on this team nothing. Jut nothing. idk if Tuch can save us. We might need 5 or 6 more guys like that. But right now we might as well send everybody we can to Rochester to develop winning and just tank this crap full out. Absolute rubbish. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HumanSlinky39 Posted November 7, 2021 Report Share Posted November 7, 2021 That was a brutal last 10 minutes. Just brutal. Dahlin has to be the most frustrating player in Sabres history. He shows occasional flashes of what he’s capable of, then starts eating retard sandwiches. Guys like Bryson and Butcher getting waxed on the way to the net isn’t enfuriating because they’re marginal players, that’s gonna happen. Dahlin was the #1 overall pick in his draft and Bertuzzi pulled down his pants and painted a picture on his ass before burying it. Yuck.

Nitro60 Posted November 7, 2021 Report Share Posted November 7, 2021 Glad the reporter asked Dahlin a straight to the point question. 12 minutes ago, Radar said: Please tell me how you lose focus.

PerreaultForever Posted November 7, 2021 Report Share Posted November 7, 2021 I recorded the Bruins Leafs game and am watching this now. The contrast is incredible. It's like a completely different level of hockey. This makes me very sad about us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
