PASabreFan Posted February 19 Report Share Posted February 19 1 minute ago, Gatorman0519 said: Classic dysfunctional Sabres game. It comes in 100 different ways. Today is the “playing an inferior team and losing even though we are outplaying them” game. I see the dysfunction this way. There's talent on display and the work ethic has been there but they look like they've never been coached to win hockey games. 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DarthEbriate Posted February 19 Report Share Posted February 19 1 minute ago, Pimlach said: What is he seeing? Porous team defense? Over passing? No body checks? Missed shots from the perimeter? Inconsistent effort? It is all there today plus bad goaltending which hasn’t been the case lately with UPL. Why else would his Ducks be completely outplayed but winning? Mainly the way too loose defense and the Jekyll & Hyde game from one period to the next. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's all part of the grand plan of not having to raise their sticks to the fans today. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SabresVet Posted February 19 Report Share Posted February 19 5 minutes ago, JohninMinn. said: Donny's a top 3rd period coach. He's bottom quality in the first...or the second. Down 1-0 or 2-0 and I can hear it now: "We got 'em right where we want 'em!" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thewookie1 Posted February 19 Report Share Posted February 19 3 minutes ago, North Buffalo said: Not confidence he just doesnt look as strong on his pins as he did last year... knocked off his feet way too often... needs to do more squats. If anything my guess is he lost some core strength training due to lower body injury he had last season near the end. Since he hasn't looked quite as confident with his balance or skating. Add to that a wrist injury making stick handling slightly more difficult which will unconsciously get you to slow down. Between those issues and his confidence we see a far less effective Thompson. UPL having a rough game; as long as he bounces back next game we have nothing to worry about in his case. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
