GDT: 10/17 Sabres (5-1-1) @ Kings (2-4-0), 10:30 PM

this is deff the product of a back to back against a struggling team...first period was great. weather the storm the rest of the way. every game has its narrative.

 

[darcyRegier]

Casey is excellent at making in tight passes

 

[Buffaloed]

The Kings spent a lot of energy furiously forechecking and came away with nothing. The plan worked. Now they're gassed. lol

 

[joshjull]

Has Mitts been there best player tonight?!

Id say Hutton.


But Mitts would be 2nd

 

[Montag DP]

Dang, Mitts almost got the hat trick.

 

[TheStorm]

Understandably they're gassed. Just not good to be hemmed in that much while giving up a lot of shots. Perfectly fine to have a game like this every once in awhile. Not good if it's a trend.

I wonder how Tre White rates this performance by Sutton?

I'd say his goalie academy had a great impact on Sutton tonight

 

[sufferer]

Has Mitts been there best offensive player tonight?!

[valet]

Gerber collision just sounds gross to me

 

[DolanPlsGoSabres]

Would Dunleavy call it a Mitts' Trick if he gets 3? Or some other cringy thing?

 

[Dubi Doo]

Id say Hutton.


But Mitts would be 2nd

Fixed it right after your responded, haha

 

[Hasek]

Marner is better.

 

[Dubi Doo]

Kings have been silent since their PP. Not much fight left in them.

 

[valet]

I bet this is Putin trying to spare kovalchuk the embarrassment of missing the net 20 times tonight

 

[SundherDome]

If Hutton gets scored on, it must be Carter from Hutton, must be.

 

[La Cosa Nostra]

I love that we are getting the win with 0 points from Eichel, Sam, Olofsson, Marjo and Skinner and that it was the whipping boys Mitts and Sheary doing the work.

Sheary needs to finally get some recognition around here. He is straight up a LW2. Since 2016 Sheary is 22nd in goals and 27th in points among Left wingers. That is technically low end LW1 numbers but obviously he is more of a middle 6 guy. Still it made me laugh how Sheary was treated as a 13th forward type this summer.

I think he finishes with 20-20-40 this year. As a 3rd liner on this team that will be fantastic. Add in his vast playoff experience and speed and age I would actually like to see him extended for 3 years @ ~3-3.5 mil. A speedy 15-20 goal, 35-40 point winger is worth 3 mil in my eyes.

 

[TheStorm]

Yay a power play

 

[Chainshot]

Kovie goes full d-bag.

 

[SackTastic]

Kovi in mid season form, bravo.

 

[Dirty Dog]

lolol miller played kovie

 

[Ralonzo]

Kings feed: "Just a follow through, both guys were jousting"

Get lost

 

[Dubi Doo]

Kovalchuk's a tough dude. Wise move for Miller to skate away.

 

[sabremike]

First thing Kovy hit all night!!!
