Flat out gifted them the win. At least it was their choice, and not the Penguins.😂 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, we’ve been saying that about Casey and Co. for a long time as well. I’ll need to see a good six game stretch like tonight before I can get excited.

Their scrum was not even close to Anderson. They were going at it for another reason not seen by the ref apparently. The veteran team kept is close when they were getting outplayed. Then they won the 3rd and stole the game. True. I have no clue either Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In my opinion, it was Genzel who slashed Anderson...the rest of the guys went after the wrong guy....Skinner was the only one who saw that Genzel was the culprit. Replay may prove me wrong, but that's what I thought I saw. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were taking Tage away and letting Dahlin feed Cozens instead. Cozens did not make any plays on the PP tonight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Am I not remembering that right? Second goal was a Mitts to Thompson to Skinner. Mitts’ pass was zipped across the rink to an open Thompson. On the first goal Dahlin to Casey who drop passes to a charging Jost who snaps to the middle to VO. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubt any team is fooled by his once in a few months good game. They know the book on Casey and I doubt the Yotes would be demanding him as part of any deal. Maybe as a throw in perhaps.

I’ll need to see a good six game stretch like tonight before I can get excited. Which is fair. Now that they AREN'T being forced into 2nd line duty it very well could happen. Not saying it will, but it can happen. Getting matchups where they aren't flat out overmatched will help. Getting points in this 3rd scoring line / 4th line overall ice time usage should build their confidence which seemed to take a hit w/ the demotion. They SHOULD be able to thrive in this new role. Will they? We shall see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LGR4GM Posted December 10, 2022 Report Share Posted December 10, 2022 Ok, I'm going to sleep. It was a fun game and we played good. We're starting to play with more consistency. Glad we got a point but think that game could have gone either way. On to tomorrow. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sidc3000 Posted December 10, 2022 Report Share Posted December 10, 2022 I’m happy to see that they went a full 60 against a good veteran team. Yeah the Penguins played better in the 3rd. Tomorrows game is going to be interesting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grinreaper Posted December 10, 2022 Report Share Posted December 10, 2022 Crosby was almost in fake tears when he was called on that penalty. I heard somewhere that he was enrolled over the Summer in Tom Brady's "How To Whine and Get a Call" seminar. Obviously it was just a refresher course. Okposo made a really nice shot to score the tying goal. Quinn made a better play with his pass to him. Criticize Anderson for not stopping the Penguins 3rd goal because of the angle but his positioning was almost perfect. There was about 2" worth of room for that puck to go in. Skinner was stupid to go high with the crosscheck. Pull a Brier and give Guentzel what he gave Ovenchkin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thewookie1 Posted December 10, 2022 Report Share Posted December 10, 2022 Rough way to end it but the vet team got a couple more bounces, a bad call on Mitts and 3 goal posts to thank for their OT win. Now onto tomorrow; kick their ass! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Replay may prove me wrong, but that's what I thought I saw. It doesn't matter what Genzel did. Skinner lost control at a critical juncture. If Skinner would have sticked him a few times that would have been more than enough retaliation. He and the other combatant would then have been directed to the penalty box. Skinner is a very intense player but you have to have a better presence of mind to understand the situation. Skinner lost his composure and the Sabres ended up losing the game. This was a good game. As someone else mentioned when Tage was covered on the PP Cozens has to shoot the puck. There were good enough shooting lanes to get the puck to the net. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carmel Corn Posted December 10, 2022 Report Share Posted December 10, 2022 We were at risk of getting 0 points against a team higher in the standings...so getting 1 point is better than 0. Sure we had the lead and maybe allowed a soft goal, but at the end of the day, I was entertained and look forward to tomorrow's rematch.

And on the one that sent it to OT, he carried it into & through the zone, sent it to the point then got it back under pressure and backhanded it to a now open Quinn. It was a very nice play overall & without him doing the work to get it into the zone Quinn doesn't get the puck w/ the space to make the really nice pass to Okposo who took a great shot. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He had three assists and was a plus 2. It seems that some people are reluctant to give him credit when it is due. 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
