Post-Game Talk (GBU): The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly - Road Point: OT Loss 3-2 in Carolina 11/7/23

- Start date
No major complaints tonight. Canes are tough o play against and have an excess of skilled players who play a disciplined puck control game.
Not convinced the players on the ice during the 3 on 3 even had an opportunity to change and get fresh legs out there.
Good game from UPL, Greenway , Dahlin, RyJo, Peterka and esp Tuch.
Sabres can hold their heads up high after to night.

The consensus among basically all the Sabres fans walking around after the game (and there are always a lot of them) was hey we got a point. Entertaining game.
It's something that every time I go to a Canes game that goes to OT I have to explain to people around me how regular season overtime works.

G: Donnie leaned on young Johnson minutes and it paid off.

It was endearing to hear the "let's go Buffalo!" chant that at first drew boos and then a counter cheer started. Reminded me of Leaf fans in Buffalo.
Sadly, similar results...

Where did the "Doc" thing come from as regards Ryan Johnson?

the xB guys want to make their own nicknames for players so they are shoehorning in a dumb one. Something about him going to school for so long he's a doctor.

It's going to be very interesting to see who comes out of the lineup when the D is healthy. Doc Johnson may be pushing Cliffy down to #7. Really impressed with his game, doesn't try to do too much... in the right spots.
Getting him to sign is a feather in GMKA's hat.

Honestly think it's an attempt to keep people from calling him RJ. Also better than RyJo.
I really did not like the nickname and googled it to find out where it originated as it applies to Ryan Johnson. To me it sounded like some historic figure from the old west who robbed banks and patched up members of the gang who got shot. Turns out that Doc Johnson is a sex toy company - not that there's anything wrong with that. I just prefer that players on my favorite team not be nicknamed after a dildo and butt plug company.
Edit - just saw the post above about needing a different nickname than RJ. In my humble opinion, RyJo is kind of lame, but I think its better than Doc Johnson

they're just trying to have fun I guess. But it is a terrible awful nickname attempt, yes lol
On a more positive note, I am really happy for Johnson as he appears to be better than even I had hoped for when the Sabres picked him. His choice at the end of the first round, being part of the ROR deal, and the fact that he completed all four years at Minnesota was a painful thing to watch - as "board experts" had him running a four year gauntlet negativism, trade proposals and rumors - the best of which was the constant banter about him signing with whatever organization his father worked for.
Rivals the years long Mittelstadt beat down for sure.

Shoehorning for sure especially when there are some covid-era college athletes in their 6th and 7th years, but a classic joke nonetheless. "Analytics guys" should let the cool kids handle the vibes dept.

Its absolutely stupid, I thought maybe it was some famous cowboy from history or a movie so I googled it and all I got was Doc Johnson 'American Sex Toy Company'. Yes Doc Johnson is the name of the company.
These guys on Twitter need to do better or let someone who is good at nicknames name people. Amateur hour at xB

when I googled I found Doc Johnson Travelling Medicine Show I think a re-creation of old time medicine shows.

I'm wondering if the book on the Sabres PP is out, at least as far as entries into the zone go. Stand them up at the blueline and they can't do shit. For the most part that seems to be the case. They're either gonna need to dump and chase or do something like Dahlin did with his goal.
