JohnC Posted December 1, 2022 Report Share Posted December 1, 2022 Just now, NAF said: At the beginning of the season I was all for giving Mittelstadt a shot in what was his make or break year. Now he is (and maybe it isn't just him, maybe it's the combo of him and Olofsson) actively costing the team games. Thankfully they didn't lose tonight, but they came about as close as possible. Is there any way he could be packaged for Chychrun? I get we'd be selling low, but at this point I don't really care. Maybe Mittelstadt, Östlund/Rosen, and our first top 15 protected this year? WTF was up with the penalty calls tonight (and vs. Tampa for that reason)? I get they had to call the obvious ones -- the high sticking on Dahlin, etc., but I refuse to believe that the Sabres committed 7 penalties tonight and the Wings committed 2. ***** the refs. I really like Jost so far. He was a solid pickup. He fits in well with Okposo and Girgs. 3 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HumanSlinky39 Posted December 1, 2022 Report Share Posted December 1, 2022 (edited) That goal by Quinn was freaking awesome. To have the presence of mind and patience to do that at such a young age is really impressive. Really like Granato going with JJP and Quinn in the shootout. Give the young bucks a run. Cozens seems to be getting better by the game. He was all over the ice tonight and was the best player on both teams. Really, really liking the JJ-Dylan-Jack line. They could very well be a force come spring. 7/7 on the PK including killing off a 5 on 3 is impressive. They played some of the best hockey they've played all year in the first two periods followed by maybe the worst period they've played in the 3rd. Mitts' line was dreadful. I mean really bad. Need to break them up and maybe sit Mitts for a couple of games to clear his head. VO was equally as bad. If he isn't scoring goals, I can't think of anything else he brings to the team. I won't be comfortable with any kind of lead for a long time. In the end, they weathered the storm against a good team on the road to get the 2 points. I'll take it, but sheeeeesh. On to the next one... Edited December 1, 2022 by HumanSlinky39 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is two games in a row they gave up a lead in the third and took absolutely dumb penalties because they’re panicking. granato said that the tampa game was a buf learning experience. What did they learn from it? They did almost exactly the same thing Ok. Be miserable. I’ll enjoy the ride Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's exactly what Granato has said on WGR on multiple occasions. And he also said that he was confident that his goal scoring will materialize because he has had a number of pipe missus. The coach knows his players. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then I came back and read the scoresheet wrong, thought Dahlin scored the game winning SO goal, posted the Dahlin pic, then took the dogs for their walk. THEN, while on my walk I looked at my phone and saw it wasn't Dahlin it was Quinn. SO I deleted the Dahlin post and finally.... here's Quinn's goal meme: Quinn is the first Sabre to earn this meme as his goal meme, because this is what it's like every time he scores. You simply can't believe it. Edited December 1, 2022 by Doohickie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

matter2003 Posted December 1, 2022 Report Share Posted December 1, 2022 Ridiculous they allowed 3 goals in under 6 mins in the 3rd to tie it, but nice job finishing it in a shootout.
