GDT: 2018 Training Camp Part 5 | Locally Streaming

[Peat]

Completely not noticed but what is the goal song ? Did they change it for that local artist who died?

Haven't heard what it is but they said they weren't changing it, so I'm guessing still Party Hard.

Everyone, come back down to earth. It's Buffalo without their good players.

Yeah you're right, they don't have CONNOR SHAREY tonight.

Everyone, come back down to earth. It's Buffalo without their good players.

It is, but at the same time, not every day you see a 5 goal game in which you don't really blame the opposition goaltender at all. I guess its just nice to see them slaughter some kids like they should.

 

[Pancakes]

Pens have had a great flow with tons of puck support. And I cannot sing the praises of Brassard enough.

If Brass plays the way he is capable of and Murray rebounds there is no reason we shouldn't be able to challenge for #1 in the East and the President's Trophy for that matter. We're that good and deep imo.

Buffalo Sabres @ Pittsburgh Penguins, 2018-09-26

Is there someone in the arena that tracks this stuff? Like how reliable is the source data?

 

[ColePens]

Riikola.. wow. Dude is making it near impossible to send down.

 

[Randy Butternubs]

I need a Riikola shirsey ASAP.

 

[Empoleon8771]

Riikola is playing so well that I don't know how you can justify him not being on the opening day lineup. I think he may be playing better than Maatta did in 2013.

 

[ColePens]

Holy shit AWESOME Letang.

Geno.. not so much. Wtf are you doing?!

 

[Pancakes]

Great play by Letang.

 

[FreeBobbyFarnham]

Riikola should be a regular

I don't either. Guy looks fantastic.

 

[Randy Butternubs]

Murray was beat glove-side again, but Letang saved him.

 

[Pancakes]

100% agree with what Phil Bourque is saying. Riikola looks like a guy who fits our system to a T and plays it well.

Looks totally comfortable in the system.

 

[Andy99]

Murray was beat glove-side again, but Letang saved him.

He owed him one...literally

 

[Clare2904]

How do people cope listening to these two all season on the radio broadcast?

 

[Andy99]

Riikola should be a regular

Yep...they should scratch Olek for him imo

 

[Pancakes]

Nice touch pass to Guentzel by Sprong there.

 

[Empoleon8771]

Yep...they should scratch Olek for him imo

Yeah this game has really emphasized that. Maatta and Johnson both have had fantastic games, and Oleksiak is just...there. Like he's not bad, he's just there.

Sprong looked really good on Crosby's line there.

Nice touch pass to Guentzel by Sprong there.

Then Guentzel telegraphed it and tried a half slapper

 

[FreeBobbyFarnham]

Yep...they should scratch Olek for him imo

Or trade Maatta for a LW.

Dumoulin - Letang
Riikola - Schultz
Oleksiak - Johnson

 

[66-30-33]

I aint gonna be excited about Riikola just yet.

 

[Empoleon8771]

Or trade Maatta for a LW.

Dumoulin - Letang
Riikola - Schultz
Oleksiak - Johnson

Why trade Maatta for a LWer? They don't need a LWer and Maatta has looked incredible tonight. They shouldn't be selling anyone off the roster yet, trading Maatta so Riikola can get a top-4 spot sounds like an incredibly bad idea.

 

[66-30-33]

Or trade Maatta for a LW.

Dumoulin - Letang
Riikola - Schultz
Oleksiak - Johnson

Why would we do that? it's only pre season, maybe he will regress badly and we will wish we had kept Maatta.
