Hellebuyck’s biggest weaknesses when compared to other NHL goaltenders are on breakaways and cross ice passes down low. These two biggest weaknesses just so happen to be the Sabres biggest problems on defense, which makes it unlikely for Hellebuyck to be as good, and when he’s being paid as a top 3 goalie, he needs to be elite. Paying him that much till he is 38 would be a bad move for Buffalo. Hellebuyck isn’t weak in those areas compared to others, weird misnomer I’ve noticed around here. He’s well above average. Those are merely the areas he isn’t elite in. Ie he’s elite in most areas but only quite good in a couple. it would be pretty odd to not add Hellebuyck for this specific reason because the only goalies that wouldn’t struggle mightily in those areas are the count-on-one-hand other elite goalies. It would be sort of weird to gameplan to have these terrible defensive deficiencies for the course of an 8 year term. It doesn’t matter who we have in net if we don’t fix the issues.

French Collection Posted October 11, 2023 Report Share Posted October 11, 2023 (edited) I dislike the Pens more now that Dubas is running the show. Putting the Leafs stench on a new team.

In warmups maybe, or walking into the rink before the game. Anyhoo it was more a joke than anything. No offence intended there. He is a great player and would add another layer of awesome to this team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SABRES 0311 Posted October 11, 2023 Report Share Posted October 11, 2023 4 hours ago, CallawaySabres said: The 3 teams we need to beat out most likely are Pitt, Tampa or Boston. I just don’t understand the logic of wanting one of those 3 to win any night….ever. Those teams are going to win and lose games no matter what. Rooting for any team has no impact on that. It is up to the Sabres to make sure they win more games over a six month season. I want the Sabres to make the playoffs but it’s still fun to see one team beat another. If TBL plays VGK in December, I will probably root for TBL. It’s a different story in Jan or Feb though. Bottom line is it’s weird that you honed in on something that didn’t go along with your perspective. It’s unhealthy (but funny) that it caused you to throw insults on night one of the season.

inkman Posted October 11, 2023 Report Share Posted October 11, 2023 Why do some hockey traditionalists loathe young players like Bedard? There sure seems to be a lot of animosity toward the kid.

PromoTheRobot Posted October 11, 2023 Report Share Posted October 11, 2023 I'm just curious. It's not like they couldn't sell more tickets before last night. Did they exceed capacity or did they make more room somehow? Or are they also counting fans outside? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
