GDT: 10/9 Sabres (2-0-1) v. Canadiens (1-0-1) @ 7:00PM

[Snippit]

Going to be fun seeing Eichel and Dahlin's name in the top 10 of scoring for at least the next day

 

[VaporTrail]

E-rod played tonight ? I didn't hear his name called once.

 

[CrazyPsycho]

We need to get better even strength scoring. This PP won’t score every game like this. Unsustainable.

A very similar game to the streak from last year, Hutton had a huge game

 

[sabresEH]

Some superior coaching to put Marcus on the ice in that situation when you’ve got shooters leg VO and Skinner sitting on the bench.

I liked the 4 he put out. I didn’t get to watch the whole game but those 4 seemed like he was playing the 4 that “deserved” it rather than just throwing out the usuals.

 

[valet]

Risto needs to not be playing over 40% of the game

injuries

Would have been very curious who was coming over the boards next, glad we didnt find out

 

[debaser66]

Without Mojo we would have just 2 lines...because the Mitts line is a black hole despite easy matchups

Not a shot at Krueger. I liked the move.

E-rod played tonight ? I didn't hear his name called once.

he was always sending the puck down when we needed a clear on Larsson's line not a bad night but not a good night either.

 

[littletonhockeycoach]

He got horribly outcoached tonight, granted we have too many slugs still on the roster

He was out coached a bit ....... by a Stanley Cup winning coach. Not horribly but he didn't have real time answers to the Habs offensive zone pressure and speed.

Not surprised. It's hard to shut that kinda of momentum down. He needed to call a time out and regroup. Hutton was getting shell shocked.

But his line choices in OT and in the last few minutes of the 3rd were solid.

He's learning too......

 

[Aladyyn]

injuries

lol

as if it's ever going to change

 

[debaser66]

The Sabres need to hire a team exorcist. The spirit of Housley has been palpable the last couple games.

He is hiding under the Zamboni

 

[kirby11]

injuries

Who got dinged up?

 

[Fjordy]

There was no third line in the game today at all, Sobotka is simply terrible, cannot even shoot normally, falls constantly, he is clearly not suitable for the second line, Vesey has such a place in Rochester as Casey.

 

[sabresEH]

Would have been very curious who was coming over the boards next, glad we didnt find out

In the next PP unit? Any number of guys. Maybe the “4th” line with Dahlin or Risto. Skinner Olofsson Dahlin Risto. Who knows who cares. The 4 he put out to start ended the game.

 

[Sabre the Win]

Without Mojo we would have just 2 lines...because the Mitts line is a black hole despite easy matchups

Cozens is gonna save this team. Hes gonna turn into a great 2C

 

[Panthaz89]

lol

as if it's ever going to change

yeah its like the 3rd coach now that plays him a ton for some reason he must be a god practice player at showing his stamina.

 

[sabresEH]

Not a shot at Krueger. I liked the move.

I didn’t think you were. Just posting why I liked what he did. Thought it played well off your post

 

[Buffaloed]

Is that Bogo in the backgound with the buffalo horns?

yeah he should have burned a timeout.

 

[Gabrielor]

Just call him Jack.

(Unless you were really going for God Jack)

I was going for God.

 

[Gabrielor]

Correct typo.

It wasn't a typo

 

[EichHart]

A very similar game to the streak from last year, Hutton had a huge game

I agree, but I feel like the Habs play on the borderline interference on nearly every puck battle. They could of had even more penalties then they took. So much clutching and grabbing this game, limited the Sabres breakout.

 

[Dahlin 2 Eichel]

What? Only the pass/goal was executed nicely. The whole final PP was bad. It was a lucky bounce to Miller that caused the pass/goal. We got lucky.

Two of Montreal’s goals were the same. Lucky bounces. Goal is a goal.

 

[Sabreality]

not sure he was outcoached, still working with what he has and i think he managed things pretty well. "3rd" line is a hole, Vlad, although better is still a filler there. liked bumping Skinner up in a couple of situations. D fell apart but i'm not sure that was coaching more than the collective tonight, nobody was hooked up
