God it's a good feeling to win...

 

[26CornerBlitz]

Eichel with his 1st career GWG! Nice team effort guys!

 

[WeDislikeEich]

Buffalo wins!

Much, much better overall game today.

 

[cramdizzl]

I'm pretty sure almost everybody advanced in survivor today

Nope, the Latvian Locomotive didn't make it to the station

 

[Myllz]

Really wanted ROR to get that empty-netter, would've capped off an excellent day from him.

 

[Beerz]

Eichel with his 1st career GWG! Nice team effort guys!

pretty sure his 1st goal was a GWG as well.

 

[CrazyPsycho]

Will win alot of games with a defensive effort like that. Get Bogosian back and keep McCabe and wont need Franson or Carlo...

 

[26CornerBlitz]

I'm talking about real games.

 

[ForsakenSabre]

Damn you zemgus

 

[Acetylene]

Good game guys! Fun to watch for a (somewhat) neutral supporter. Eichel is damn good, I'm jelaous!

 

[Beerz]

I'm talking about real games.

****. Considering this is our first win.... you are correct.

 

[26CornerBlitz]

Well yeah. This year a win is a win and not a loss.

Franson played almost twice as many minutes as McCabe today, so I doubt that'll be the case.

EichelMania is running wild in Buffalo!!!

 

[Myllz]

Franson played almost twice as many minutes as McCabe today, so I doubt that'll be the case.

Sabres also had 7 powerplays, which is Franson's specialty.

Edit: And McCabe was injured.

McCabe missed a chunk of time after getting clipped with a high stick.

 

[Doug Prishpreed]

McCabe missed a chunk of time after getting clipped with a high stick.

So…and you point is? That's beside the point. I was responding to someone was saying that the fact that we looked good and won this game means that we'll see more of McCabe and less of Franson. I don't see how this game proved that when Franson played so much more than McCabe and we won. I believe Franson had more TOI in this game than the other two, so I don't see how this game proved much in that regard. If anything, it proved the opposite.

Sabres also had 7 powerplays, which is Franson's specialty.

Exactly. So how does this game portend McCabe getting more time if we won without him contributing much?

 

[Myllz]

Exactly. So how does this game portend McCabe getting more time if we won without him contributing much?

Because he looked very good in the time he got? Generally when someone plays well they get more ice time. That's hardly a difficult concept to grasp.

 

[OkimLom]

Exactly. So how does this game portend McCabe getting more time if we won without him contributing much?

Judging on what he did on the ice with the minutes he did play. He played very well, and had a nice game with Pysyk who I will say is the Defense's version of Johan Larsson.

 

[Push Dr Tracksuit]

Exactly. So how does this game portend McCabe getting more time if we won without him contributing much?

we wont be on the PP for nearly 14 mins, so someone needs to play franson's mins at even str
