Most goals we have scored since 2011!

Glad to hear the ...WE WANT EIGHT! chant.

 

I was at the Aud when they beat the Caps 14-2.

Don't tell K-9 that I said that Scandella is playing well. He will question my  vision and sanity. :ph34r:

 

When the Sabres have players around the opposing net good things happen. 

 

Ullmark was not challenged much but he was quietly efficient. There is such a calmness to his game. As the season advances I see him playing more. Maybe every other game. 

 

Bogo playing is a major addition not only to the defense but to the team. He is rugged and has a presence not only with the opposition but also with his own team. He taking down the Ottawa player hovering around the goalie into the boards behind the net was a thing to behold. He did it in such a way that would not garner a penalty. My only criticism of him is that his beard is getting scraggly. He needs to trim it. I have an aversion toward slovenly looking players.

Top Notes
  • The Sabres scored nine goals in a game for the first time since Jan 27, 2009 at Edmonton (10-2 win).
    • The last time Buffalo scored nine goals in a home game was Jan. 18, 2008 vs. Atlanta (10-1 win).
  • Jason Pominville’s three-point game (2+1) today has extended his point streak to seven games, which is tied for the eighth-longest active streak in the NHL. During his streak, Pominville has 13 points (7+6).
    • The streak is Pominville’s longest streak since he posted points in seven straight from March 9 to 20, 2014.
    • Since the streak began on Oct. 20, Pominville is tied with linemate Jeff Skinner (8+5) for the NHL lead in points. Eichel (1+11) ranks third in the league during that span.
  • In his 10 games since Oct. 13, Skinner is tied for second in the NHL in goals (9) and points (16). This marks the best 10-game stretch of his career.
  • Skinner’s nine goals so far this season tie him with Miroslav Satan in 1997-98 for the fourth-most goals in a Sabres player’s first 14 games with the team.
    • The three players who have scored more goals through their first 14 career games with the franchise: Rick Vaive in 1988-89 (12), Richard Martin in 1971-72 (10) and Wilf Paiement in 1986-87 (10)
  • Conor Sheary (0+2) recorded his 100th career point with his second assist of the game.
  • With his two assists today, Sam Reinhart has five points (1+4) in his last four games against the Senators.
  • Linus Ullmark made 27 saves to improve to 3-0-1 on the season with a .934 save percentage and a 2.00 goals-against average.

That's amazing that Mogilny didn't crack into that list.  Poured it all on later with his 76 goals in '92-'93.

 

He and LaFontaine were so much fun to watch

Once concern I have about today's game: there's a better than even chance our hockey team put up a better score than our football team will. 

I'm staking my disreputable reputation on Peterman playing well and the Bills winning against the Bears. I'm also predicting that if that scenario plays out that Gunner is going to be furious and respond with a tirade and a ten page screed why Peterman should not be playing in the league. He will then put me on ignore and never respond to me again until Peterman plays poorly in another game whereupon he will be re-energized and revive his campaign against the fifth round backup to the backup qb. :ph34r:

It's funny you responded to my post because I deleted it as soon as I saw someone else had already made the joke over on TSW. 

 

Regarding Peterman, I certainly don't have any sense of impending doom, necessarily, but I don't hold out hope that he will play well, either. I'd like nothing more than to see the kid exorcise some demons though. I'll be rooting for him, regardless. 

 

And Scandella still blows chunks. He's a third pair D man at best. But Risto is no better than a second pair, either. Our D corp has a long way to go, imo. Other than Dahlin, I don't see a legit first pair NHL player at the position at present.

Who else thinks the Sabres have outscored what the Bills will put up tomorrow?

 

Great game by the Sabres, which they could have spread these points out in close loses.

 

I believe the Bills will score more than 9 points
