Draconator Posted February 11, 2022 Posted February 11, 2022 Was at the game tonight. Sabres had moments on both ends of the spectrum. Looked good, and ran around in their own zone at times. The thing that really stood out to me was Krebs looked like the NHL Level is still slightly beyond him. He had his fair share of errors. Tolarski was good, but let in 2 easy goals. We need a solid #1 goalie.

They have been rebuilding for 11 years. They will most likely be a bottom 3-5 team next year after VO and Miller and others are traded for futures. all these young rookies are going to struggle at times, development isn't linear, we've seen it with mitts, Couzens, Dahlin, Joker etc. I just want to know, when is the plan to actually start winning hockey games?
Nextmanup Posted February 11, 2022 Posted February 11, 2022 Sabres blow 3rd period lead for NINTH TIME this year! Are you kidding me? The funny thing is they played pretty well in 2nd and 3rd periods after a mediocre first period. 1

They were outplayed big time in the 1st last night.

Of course he's going to say positive things. "The city is excited"...really? Have a look at the empty seats, Rasmus! "Krebsy" is playing great--just assigned to Rochester b/c he's clearly not ready for the NHL yet... And so on... I like Granato a lot and think he's doing as good a job as he can do, but at what point does his .389 win percentage get addressed? Never? "Wait 'til next year!" exclaimed the Sabres fans. I guess we all see/hear what we want to. I saw a thoughtful, sincere answer that gives me hope. 1

He was a 6th round pick of the Sabres in 2016 under Tim Murray (he hit on a few late picks). Jason Botterill didn’t sign him and we lost his rights. Its amazing how many mistakes this franchise has made over the last 10 years. also: https://nhl.nbcsports.com/2022/02/14/jack-eichel-to-make-vegas-golden-knights-debut-wednesday-vs-colorado-avalanche/ ‘Jack Eichel to make Golden Knights debut Wednesday vs. Avalanche’ 🖕 Edited February 16, 2022 by BillsFan4 1

Yeah he didn’t really take any big hits though. The concern about the ADR surgery was how it would hold up over time and how it would react to awkward collisions and big open ice hits (etc). Anyway... he looked rusty. You saw flashes of the Eichel we know but it’s obviously going to take him some time to get back into game shape. It’s also going to take him some time to get used to the pace LV plays with/at. 2 great games on TNT yesterday back to back. did you see Reinhart’s game tying goal? What a beauty! I don’t mind rooting for Reinhart. He left the proper way. Eichel can go **** himself. Edited February 17, 2022 by BillsFan4
T&C Posted February 18, 2022 Posted February 18, 2022 Watching this one with the Sens... as always, great to hear RJ.
T&C Posted February 18, 2022 Posted February 18, 2022 Good game so far but my attention was caught by the "RJ's Last Call" logo... this season is the last for him to call games. Listened to him since I was a kid, from the beginning, really going to miss his voice... I didn't know. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rick_Jeanneret

That was about the only thing "Great" about that game last night... What a HORRIBLE hockey game! And we had a little winning "streak" going to, if you can call 2 games a streak. You have to hand it to the 4,000 or so people who were physically in attendance....now those are DIE HARD Sabres fans. 1
BillsFan4 Posted February 20, 2022 Posted February 20, 2022 I thought Buffalo played a heck of a game against Colorado. They went blow for blow with the AVS all game and were in it till the end. Our young talent was really on full display today. A lot of the young guys had good games today. It was 3-3 in the third until this play: Dahlin was hit in the face with a stick then basically shoved to the ice by his face, and Colorado scored on an odd man break while Dahlin was laying on the ice. The play should’ve been blown dead and Buffalo given a power play. Despite losing, It was a Really exciting high paced offensive hockey game. Fun to watch! Sign me up for more of this style/pace. 1
