Yup. 5-5-10 in 8 games for JE. but it really hasn’t been about the points. It’s his 2 way game that’s been the most noteworthy aspect Edited May 9, 2023 by Thorny Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Claude Balls Posted May 9, 2023 Report Share Posted May 9, 2023 (edited) Edmonton has what I would call, um, goaltending issues. Just think, an Eichel vs Rheinhart Stanley Cup is possible. Edited May 9, 2023 by Claude Balls Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
... Posted May 9, 2023 Report Share Posted May 9, 2023 Yeah, you wave those hands, Oilers fans, it's still 4-1. And, oh! Here's the goal back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Considering who will have to get left in their wake, let's go Swamp Cats! And that will make not finding 2 more points somewhere within 82 games all that much harder to take.

LTS Posted May 9, 2023 Report Share Posted May 9, 2023 2 hours ago, Weave said: Nothing about what our team is doing now gives them a better odds of winning the cup than Toronto has. I think the "build a young team of talented players" works better than whatever Toronto is trying. And for what it's worth, until the Leafs win a Cup they will have a longer cup drought than the Sabres. After awhile, being the 5th bridesmaid gets annoying.

Randall Flagg Posted May 9, 2023 Report Share Posted May 9, 2023 (edited) 1 hour ago, Claude Balls said: Eichel is such a 🤡. Scores a goal and gives it to the Edmonton fans like he's better than Connor. He did the same thing here against Toronto. He's def one of the better players in the league, but he needs to tone it down when he scores. He's a no show for just as many games as he shows up for. I just watched the highlight of his goal. I don't think it's possible for me to be as jaded about anything as this generous description of his celebration hints he makes you 4 minutes ago, LTS said: The difference is in the salaries and what's left. The Sabres will have more money to build out a team versus the Leafs. That stands out to me versus the Leafs who have blown salary cap on players who aren't moving the needle enough and draining resources exactly in the spot that keeps kicking their butts out of the playoffs. Defense and goaltending. This is true, but again, when all their stars were on ELCs and they were making the playoffs with them, that wasn't true yet That's what I mean about us not even getting to the point where we can say we are different from them yet. We have a lot of work to do to get to the point from which they began to fail Edited May 9, 2023 by Randall Flagg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OverPowerYou Posted May 9, 2023 Report Share Posted May 9, 2023 These last few years I found myself rooting against Eichel. Yes he may have an attitude but you know what, I would probably have been the same way. I’ve worked in some places where management were idiots and made my job not fun and I moved on to a new place and was happier. Maybe I’ll stop being bitter and cheer for the guy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Outside of game 3, I’d say the Devils have been a trainwreck the whole series. And at this point, I’m not sure if the Devils played well in game 3 or if Carolina just laid an absolute egg given how the rest of the series has gone… Edited May 10, 2023 by eanyills Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zow2 Posted May 10, 2023 Report Share Posted May 10, 2023 I like the Kraken. I saw them in game 1 this season and was impressed then and even more impressed with them now. Just crazy that they are in the league for 5 minutes and cranking through the playoffs.. Vegas too for that matter. The home atmospheres have been amazing. We Sabres fans have been tested, we have to experience playoff hockey soon. My twins turned 18 and they have no idea what Sabres playoff hockey is. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
