GDT: #16 – Sabres at Blues – Tue Nov 15, 8:00PM ET – MSG-B

Already assumed he goes #1 and we wouldn't win the lottery even if we finish dead last.

That's harsh but true.

Nelson benched, Risto over 25 mins

Fedun will take Nelson's spot on Thursday. We've seen enough Nelson for now.

Nelson benched, Risto over 25 mins

We need a Hamster cage water bottle on the glass and sugar cubes to throw him between whistles. Then Risto can just stay on the ice all game.

 

[Cirris]

As much as i know injuries and aging contracts being a big part of this teams lack of on ice success. There's still a part of me that worries that this team will end up like the Columbus Blue Jackets of the 2000's. Having that one big star player up front, Nash. But they could never fill the team with talent to help him win.

 

[joshjull]

Fitting end.

 

[Afino]

something's gotta be done

 

[CrazyPsycho]

Solid ****in effort

 

[Icicle]

Injuries or not Bylsma and his god awful systems need to go

 

[CrazyPsycho]

Tell me O'Reilly isnt the leader of this team, they are completely lost without him

 

[Push Dr Tracksuit]

I wonder how long we are going to fight this.

 

[Zip15]

something's gotta be done

Like scoring a goal?

 

[CrazyPsycho]

Somehow baptiste only got 8 minutes

 

[sabres4ever]

We're looking at about 150 goals for this year.

 

[Jame]

Bylsma Hockey

 

[kirby11]

Such a poor effort in the 3rd. And we have 0 finishing ability on offense. When was the last time we scored more than 1 goal in a game?

 

[joshjull]

Tell me O'Reilly isnt the leader of this team, they are completely lost without him

Even with ROR they suck at scoring. And they've had games with crap efforts with him playing.

He's definitely a leader but the issues for this team go well beyond that.

That wont happen. They already have 3 players I think can be stars, Eichel, ROR, and Risto.

They just need to fill in around them. It will take time, we have plenty of it. Eichel cant even drink yet in the US.

 

[haseoke39]

Getting what they deserve.

Bylsma Hockey

He hit the crossbar? He couldnt finish chances?

 

[DapperCam]

Not surprised with Eichel, ROR, Ennis, Bogo, and Kulikov out. You hope that Reinhart will step up, but he did have our only goal and several other good chances.

Defensive depth is bad. I have trouble blaming Bylsma for a conservative game plan. We have a very thin roster at the moment.

Do you need another lesson in systems?

Can we blame him for something else then?

The guy is brutal.

 

[Sabre Dance]

Do you need another lesson in systems?

Im honest about not seeing systems live while watching the game and I never hear the end of it. Its ok.

Our sucking at ES scoring is something that's gone on since Disco started coaching this team

The conservative approach IS NOT an adjustment to the current roster situation. It's been his approach since he became our coach. We are at the bottom in almost all 5v5 offensive categories. That's not because of the recent injuries. We sucked at ES offense last year as well.

Okposo has stepped up. He cant do it all though. Its actually encouraging watching Okposo. I think about what it will be like when they are healthy, if it ever happens. You have ROR and Okposo coming at you, then Eichel and Reinhart, and then the FLG line.

I said when Eichel was injured that it gives us a chance to evaluate the roster better.
