matter2003 Posted December 31, 2022 Report Share Posted December 31, 2022 Have to say that I have been really impressed at how UPL has turned his game up the last 3 or 4 games...he was God Awful for the first several games, taking bad angles and letting in soft goals but it seems he has really worked hard on that and has been much better lately 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
inkman Posted December 31, 2022 Report Share Posted December 31, 2022 If you are going to take a penalty against Marchand, can you make sure he leaves the ice on a stretcher? 1 2 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

matter2003 Posted December 31, 2022 Report Share Posted December 31, 2022 Is there a team in the league that has more "almost clears" than the Sabres do? It's like they are right there to clear the puck within 2 or 3 feet of the blueline and almost inexplicably don't clear it many times. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Sabres have a ways to go but they are getting attention around the league because they have some legitimate stars in 26 and 72. Kinda hard to get excited about that right now. We continue to be the Bruins bitch. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He ought to do whatever Tage does in the offseason to improve his shot. Not completely different, both get quite a bit of high danger chances and both can't finish.

sweetlou Posted December 31, 2022 Report Share Posted December 31, 2022 So I've counted 3-4 hooks, or cross checks that have not been called on Boston. Refs not calling penalties is what kept Boston pressure on Buffalo D. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are four other guys on the ice who could be that guy. But nice ridiculous option to make your point. 13 minutes ago, erickompositör72 said: No, it would have been Sabres shorthanded: 2 for instigating, and 2 for roughing, with Boston just 2 for interference Edit: And then being down 1-0 during the Boston PP. I don't think that would have taught them not to run our goalie Not necessarily. He would have been better off not cross checking. Good period. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

matter2003 Posted December 31, 2022 Report Share Posted December 31, 2022 Not a bad period overall. They gave up some chances but Boston is too good to think you are going to shut them down completely. Thought they did a fairly good job in the Bruins zone and neutral zone of really pestering the Bruins and not letting them get easy chances to break out.

Sure, it could have been 2-0, but their ***** *****-***** rat-***** ***** ***** can't shoot worth *****-***** the ***** *****. And Krebs could've scored and it'd now be 2-1 Buffalo. Next, the Sabres get the long change, a chance to stretch their legs, and engage their 2nd period speed. It's 11 AM, grab a beer, and lock S-foils in attack position. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, Completely different players. The fact that they don’t finish does not mean the play the same game. Krebs is still finding his game in the NHL. Girgensons is a veteran of 9 seasons, we know what he is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's easy to say that the GT should expect that move but there really is no defense for that with TNT's reach. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
