Flashsabre Posted November 2, 2023 Report Share Posted November 2, 2023 Awesome  for UPL. Hopefully this is the start of a run. Good to see for Biro. Earn a spot for a couple weeks here. Just to blow the board’s mind: The Sabres are 2 and 0 with Bryson in the lineup and UPL in net.😛  1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustOneParade Posted November 2, 2023 Report Share Posted November 2, 2023 Back in black (and red) Friday nite? I thought I saw UPL is 8-0-1 or some such in the goatheads. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pimlach Posted November 2, 2023 Report Share Posted November 2, 2023 These TNT guys won’t let the Kale Makar hit go.  He lost an edge more than anything else.  This happened all the time in hockey.   Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randall Flagg Posted November 2, 2023 Report Share Posted November 2, 2023 Whipping boys UPL and Jokiharju kept us in it at different points (UPL all game, Joki with the hand save and some general steady play) Good teams can wring points out of games where they play like the Sabres did for the middle 40 minutes. They passed that test tonight. First time winning two in a row - extending solid play beyond the boundaries of a single game is also important to being a good team, let's hope they continue it into Friday (UPL should get Friday) I ask again, WTF is up with Dylan Cozens? When was the last time he meaningfully contributed to an offensive play that you can remember? His overtime goal 2 weeks ago? The presence Erik Johnson brings is plainly visible (as someone who originally hated the move). Just as in the summer, I would be thrilled with an add like that for the forwards any time. Mittelstud J.J. is playing flashy hockey but I"m not sure he's playing good hockey Tage looks off still but he's producing, I'm hoping he flips the switch like he did last November. .500 is a much better outcome than what could have happened from 1-3 or 3-5. Hopefully we pull 6 of the next 10, and at some point to make the playoffs you'll need to grab 7 or 8. Everything we want is there for us, especially if UPL isn't a mirage 4 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gatorman0519 Posted November 2, 2023 Report Share Posted November 2, 2023 If UPL can stay playing like this we will be ok with him and Levi. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CallawaySabres Posted November 2, 2023 Report Share Posted November 2, 2023 I love that those Philly fans feel exactly how we feel when a goalie they have never heard of steals a game! 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GASabresIUFAN Posted November 2, 2023 Report Share Posted November 2, 2023 Lots of props to Biro. Â He was pretty solid tonight. Â I thought his best play was actually a feed to TNT early in the game. Â He must be on cloud nine after the game. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If anything, the goals were a bit unlucky. Guy plays great, give the fella credit. No one has trouble knocking him when he's bad. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnC Posted November 2, 2023 Report Share Posted November 2, 2023 (edited) Some quick thoughts on this game. UPL was the first star and won the game for us. In general, the Flyers outplayed the Sabres but were stymied by UPL. I thought Joki played well. We had no flow and little ice time in our offensive zone. TNT's goal was nifty. This big man can maneuver in tight spots. I thought his pass back to Power was a critical play. Our performance on faceoffs was atrocious. Biro played hard all game and was rewarded for his efforts. The play of the game was Joki blocking a shot with his hand when the goalie was in a vulnerable position was the biggest play in the game for us. We won a game on the road when we were outplayed. That's a good sign. If we get this caliber of goaltending on a regular basis, we will be in the playoffs. Now let's win on Friday and make it three wins in a row.  Edited November 2, 2023 by JohnC 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
