Post-Game Talk (GBU): #03 - The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly -- I like Eich II

[My Cozen Dylan]

Good
-1st of many wins
-O'Reilly really hustled throughout the game and was rewarded
-Eichel and his amazing goal
-Risto looked like a true top-4 guy
-McCabe looked strong on D
-The goal song is starting to grow on me

Bad
-Ennis
-Johnson's lateral movement

Ugly
-Nothing much...but RJ's "Yeichel" is kinda annoying.

 

[Clock]

Buffalo loves Eichel.

Every time he scores it feels like a shot in the arm of the organization.

 

[Sabreality]

He may already be a boss.

ha true, but i just drool at the thought of him at 25/26

 

[TheStorm]

I slept through the whole game

 

[Mit Yarrum]

Vogl just finding something stupid to ***** about after a nice win.

Buffalo News clown show aside, it's a funny observation after all we've been through.

 

[Kublakhan]

I slept through the whole game

I had to clean the rain gutters and also missed the game

 

[TehDoak]

The awesome:

Actively celebrating a win without checking the standings to see how this affects our chances at 1st overall.

 

[StlSwedes]

Top-Tier:
Eichel's goal. That was special.

G:
2nd period minus Ennis' D-zone overhandle
OReilly,Girgensons,Larsson are likely to be staples here.
Mark Pysyk

B:
Johnson's rebound control gave them some chances they didn't bury.
Leaving Johansen free on 2 PPs.

U:
Franson's slow, and it's scary.

Larsson does so many good things out there, but he had the primary assist on Saad's goal and Hartnell was his man on the 2nd. Hard to put him in the 'G'. Not saying he was deserving of bad. But I am sure he wanted both of those plays back and would not consider this game was of his better games.

 

[sabres4ever]

Good: Eichel, ROR, Our PP.

Bad: After looking at the overhead review of their 2nd, not sure I blame CJ too much. He went to cover with his glove and it hit a CBJ stick and squirted out, then Larsson swept it right to Saad. Yes, he does need to control his rebounds better, but, I don't blame him as much as others.
Ennis. Shoot the damn puck with a screen!
CBJ They didn't look good at all today. Such a change from last year. Off to a bad start.

Ugly: Lemmy Kilmister

Side note: My wife promised to start watching hockey with me, finally. What a great time to have her start watching. She was screaming when we scored!

Don't forget Gorges's lack of awareness of where the puck was. That whole play he lost sight of the puck.

 

[Paxon]

Wish RJ would stop saying "Yikel"

 

[Onslow]

Powerplay!

 

[dma0034]

Good:
Risto
O'Reilly-Moulson
Bad:
Eichel: Because he's a BAD MAN
Foligno
Ugly:
Penalty Kill

I wasn't at all impressed with Larsson today.

There was a play, on the far wall, where he had a chance to get to the puck along the boards, with a Columbus player, and he pulled up, looking like he clearly wanted nothing to do with the physicality of the play at hand.

I've witnessed much better out of him.

Vogl just finding something stupid to ***** about after a nice win.

It's just a harmless observation and players were laughing about it. So relax. Vogl isn't that guy.

Understood. An ironic observation the flew completely over this poster's head.

He led the team on giveaways today as well. I still wouldn't say he was bad, but not very Larsson like today.

Team still needs to figure out where to put Foligno IMO and what to do when Gionta is back. Moulson certainly made a case as to why he needs to remain in the top 9

 

[jamers]

Good:
These are turning out to be games worth watching

Bad:
Had to work so missed watching the game

Ugly:
Phone died so no twitter gifs of Eichel until I got home

 

[joshjull]

Understood. An ironic observation the flew completely over this poster's head.

The TBN sports guys as whole don't exactly have the best rep so I kind of get your initial reaction.

But Vogl and Amy Moritz are the exceptions with that group

 

[Jame]

Good
Winning

Bad
Ennis

Ugly
Franson

 

[krt88]

Just finished watching the DVR

G
Team work ethic
Pp Goals
Strong neutral zone play

B
Ennis play late in 2nd, yikes
Sabres crowd, too quiet much of the game

U
Franson's skating

 

[Djp]

He may already be a boss.

SN observation with Risto....

I want him to be aggressive on offense. Pinch in, jump up with the firwRds.

I saw him back off a break out where it looked like it could have been a 3 on 2.

 

[Afino]

Yeah, Vogl's the one guy I trust over there. Anything from him is good natured.

 

[sabrebuild]

I think most ppl know, but if this is 18 year old eichel, game in game out, 22 year old eichel will light the league on fire.

I'd say a 20 year old Eichel lights this league on fire.
