Phil continues his ascent to greatness

 

[BHD]

The players, namely Kessel and Sheary, covered for Sullivan's stupid decisions.

 

[The GM]

To quote Bob Errey, it was not a Picasso

 

[ncm7772]

Well, they battled and they won. But problems is huge wit dis team.

 

[Killahpunk]

+ Kessel
+ Sheary
+ Crosby finally scoring
- Letang on PP

Crosby is a force down low.

Murray came up large in the 3rd. It's his best trait. Even in a subpar game he finds a way to come up with key saves.

 

[Ozz]

Prior to tonight, when was Sid's last multi-point game?

 

[ncm7772]

To quote Bob Errey, it was not a Picasso

Nah, it weren't.

 

[Lustaf]

Crosby actually put up points and wasn't a minus player on the night, AMAZING.

 

[Speaking Moistly]

Sullivan is in a funk and they can’t manage complete efforts.

 

[Shady Machine]

Thanks Phil.

Sheahan and Hagelin continue to look like they will never score again in their lives

 

[ncm7772]

Prior to tonight, when was Sid's last multi-point game?

Pfft. Eons ago.

 

[Pancakes]

Really is a testament to how ridiculous we are at home that we won that game.

We just don't really lose there. Find ways to win always. Wish we had that kind of push back on the road, but I guess it's nice we have it somewhere.

 

[MetalheadPenguinsFan]

Thank you

To quote Bob Errey, it was not a Picasso

I said during the game it didn't matter if they won or lost. I mean, it mattered in the sense that this team needs points, especially in games like this. But, this game also confirms it's a big mess.

Yeah, it wasn't a Picasso. More like this, despite the outcome . . .

 

[Lustaf]

Prior to tonight, when was Sid's last multi-point game?

A month ago, 2 goals vs the Panthers.

 

[WayneSid9987]

To be honest, the lines are set up right with what Sully has at his disposal atm. It's on the players now or JR will be forced to demote/promote.
Some good and bad again tonight...it's a process.

They'll get stomped @ OTT if they aren't ready to roll so i hope it's a good game.

 

[xxxxxxxxxxxxxx]

Skill continues to mask serious systematic and roster-based issues.

At least Sid's on the board. Hopefully this opens things up for him. We're certainly not beating teams with a cohesive, 60-minute effort of good hockey, so we need to keep our big, skilled players churning out the production.

 

[Speaking Moistly]

Wait... are we sure Sheary isn’t really pronounced Shire?

 

[Squirrel Cage]

Prior to tonight, when was Sid's last multi-point game?

Had to have been that 2 goal game against Florida, which was in the beginning of October

 

[Ugene Magic]

+ Hornqvist, Crosby, Sheary, Malkin and the thrill for the win.

 

[Andy99]

+ they won...third line, Sheary, Horny, Phil came to play, Sid with 2 points

- making the Sabres look like the 85 Oilers, Letang(although he should have a separate category)

-- Sully...for putting the crap that he does out there

 

[FreeBobbyFarnham]

We were neck and neck with the Buffalo Sabres. The Goddamn Sabres. Still a lot of work to be done.

 

[Mattilaus]

GG guys. I wish we were in a position to complain about how bad our team is even when (if) we (ever) win.
