What really impressed me even more in this game about the first line is how hard and gritty they played. I thought Thompson played really tough on both ends of the ice. 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cozens centering Quinn/JJP was a stroke of genius, too. I’m a Cozens fanboy, have been since he dropped the gloves with Lindgren as an 18 year old rookie, but he’s far surpassed my expectations at this point in his career. He looks like he’s gonna be a star. 5 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sabresouth Posted March 14, 2023 Report Share Posted March 14, 2023 At about 10 minutes left in the game after a couple of great saves by Anderson Dunleavy said "you aren't going to get far in this league without great goaltending." Next season will be KA's 4th season at trying to fix the goaltending situation. He better get it right this time. Just imagine if we had this caliber goaltending as tonight all season we wouldn't be wondering if we can make the playoffs we would already be in a playoff spot. 4 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Two or less Posted March 14, 2023 Report Share Posted March 14, 2023 The last 40 min might have been this teams best 40-min stretch this season, and they've had many good moments. Props to them. I don't think he's going to get really going this season as the schedule is slowly ending, but i just feel like watching JJ Peterka the last few games hes on verge of breaking out and becoming a regular contributor to the teams scoring. Beautiful assist tonight and he had some chances. I've been loving his game lately. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They've played a much stronger defensive game since giving up 10.. no goaltender would have bailed them out the way they were playing before. Krebs was responsible for the Matthews goal though. He pinched while Dahlin was in the zone, then skated hard to get back, then coasted again and left Matthews alone. Overall they are playing more physical, more engaged and at a higher pace. I still think bigger teams will give them troubles though. The Leafs aren't that great either. Their defense continues to be suspect. Lovely game though... right now this team is going where it needs to go for me to stay happy. 1 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He looks like he’s gonna be a star. At one point in the 3rd Cozens got off the ice early with the puck in the corner of the offensive zone. JJP, Tomers, Quinn had a great 60 seconds or so out there. As our top 6 forwards mature there are going to be a lot of options for line combinations. Mitts has driven me nuts the first half of the year. Shout out to him, phenomenal game. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Huckleberry Posted March 14, 2023 Report Share Posted March 14, 2023 Was happy to watch the game a bit, lucky doing nights sometimes 🙂 This team is going to be amazing next year. But in two years adding Kulich, Savoie, Östlund we will be unstoppable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dudacek Posted March 14, 2023 Report Share Posted March 14, 2023 Tommers was fighting so hard to get through the blanket they were trying to put on him tonight. He’s not a guy who shuts down when the competition ratchets up. He’s still learning how to beat tough defence, but he’s got the mental toughness to make it happen. Jokiharju with another outstanding game: 4 hits +2, 27 minutes. It feels like Sabrespace only notices him when something doesn’t work and takes for granted what he does well. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You notice the mistakes more than the good plays. Power and Jokiharju were much better than Dahlin and Bryson. Power's passing and puck movement were very good tonight. Perhaps, with this roster and when Samuelsson is out, they should play Dahlin back on the left side with Jokiharju, Power with Lybushkin and Stillman with Clague, the 3rd pairing getting much less ice time. Yes, I hate Bryson. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WhenWillItEnd66 Posted March 14, 2023 Report Share Posted March 14, 2023 Was very surprised (Happily) on this one. After the first i did not think they were going to score a goal. After the second i was wondering why it was not 5-2 Sabres as they dominated! The 3rd was good both ends but Tuch was smoking!!! I will also give it to Nylander, that goal was freaking sick!!!! All in all it was fun to watch! Has not been like that in in a couple of weeks it seems. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
