GDT: #64 - SABRES at LIGHTNING – TUE MAR 3 @ 7:30PM ET – NBCSN – WGR

[mgeise]

Any speculation on this forward lineup?

Moulson - Ennis - Gionta
Deslauriers - Foligno - Hodgson
Larsson - Varone - Dalpe
Ellis - Schaller - D'Amigo

It will be interesting to see whom ends up at center. I'd like to see Hodgson get another chance at center in the top six, but it wouldn't surprise me at all to see Foligno there.

edit: sorry, just saw the other thread dedicated to this.

I hate NBCSN games during our rebuild. Why so many...

Because we are such a great fanbase and we draw such great ratings.

 

[couture23]

I'm hearing the callups are Grigorenko, D'Amigo, and Schaller.

 

[Jim Bob]

The 12 Sabres forwards that suit up tonight will have combined to score about 45 goals so far this season.

If Ennis wasn't back, that would be around 30.

At least Arizona's forwards have 65 goals this season....

 

[Clock]

4-1 Lightning.

Because we are such a great fanbase and we draw such great ratings.

It's crazy how the a team this bad gets this many nationally televised games. Really speaks to how loyal and strong this fan base is. That number is only going to go up two as this team starts its upswing. If we were to somehow land McDavid they'll end up making NBCSN our home network

In terms of the odds provided by bookmakers, this is one of the most lopsided NHL games I've ever seen.

The odds of Bolts winning in regular time are 1.36/-275 (73.5% implied probability). The odds of them winning in regular time or OT/SO are 1.20/-500 (83.3% implied probability).

1-0 Sabres in a shootout. Lindbäck stops 64 shots and scores the only goal in the shootout once we're out of shooters. Murray shoots himself.

It's games like these you really have to worry about. The ones they have no business winning.

 

[Wisent42]

Tim Schaller and Jerry D'Amigo. Sounds like the names of a comedy duo.

You forgot Ellis.


I wonder who the scratch is tonight.

 

[My Cozen Dylan]

You forgot Ellis.


I wonder who the scratch is tonight.

My money is on Larsson because he's in Nolan's doghouse.

 

[SabresBillsBuffalo]

You forgot Ellis.


I wonder who the scratch is tonight.

Me forgetting him was me scratching him

Grigorenko steps in and carries us to Hanifin proving himself an elite one center.

So Varone or Grigo is the scratch.


Never change, Teddy.

 

[SeanDog]

I'm excited to see Greg O'Renko hopefully get some minutes. I'm also excited to see this team get demolished.

6-1 Bolts

Sounds like Mike G will be the extra forward according to Pat Malacaro.

Well, he's one game back after being out for about a month. It could be to Grigorenko's benefit to ease him in (assuming Ennis can go)....

Don't bother with common sense and logic.
