Sharpen Up: March 16, 2019

The Sabres face the Carolina Hurricanes tonight at PNC Arena. Buffalo is looking to snap both a six-game winless streak and a shutout streak that's extended to over three full games. They'll have some help in the offensive department as Jack Eichel will return from a two-game suspension.

Tune in to the GMC Game Night pregame show at 6:30 p.m. on MSG with faceoff scheduled for just after 7 on MSG and WGR 550.

We'll have full coverage for you here on Sabres.com throughout the day.

Here's what you need to know.

Skinner hattrick and one of the kids score but we still lose 6-4.

Horrible first or second period where Ullmark let’s in 3 or 4 bad goals and Carolina gets the ENG at the end. Housley talks of lapses in dzone coverage in post game.

 

[Ness]

who cares

 

[DatGuy]

5-1 sabres
Eichel (2), skinner, Sam, Erod

Easy victory to save phil’s Job

 

[debaser66]

Missed the last 2 first periods due to light saving time change (USA changes 2 weeks earlier than Europe) and just witnessed 1 period of each game.
I call that progress!

 

[debaser66]

I see from practice Reinhart is on the top line again...

 

[RobRayzor]

Instead of “just win” now it’s “just score”, heh.
Sad but true

 

[Team Cozens]

Hoping we score 6 goals tonigh.











And Carolina scores 7 in regulation.

[Buffalo Norsemen]

Zero in 180+ we want one

Headed to this game in person.

Couldn't you hire a body double?

[sabremike]

Anyone know a bar in midtown Manhattan that will be showing this disaster?

 

[debaser66]

"culture" "pride"
Which will be the next word repeated into meaningless mumbling letters?

 

[MrMaster]

"We can play spoiler, we can play whatever you want to call it, but this is about pride. This is about playing for the logo, playing for the guy next to you."

So basically, this is a game about nothing.

 

[Buffaloed]

I don't care who wins, who's playing or what the sport is. You can call it pride, insanity or whatever. I'm watching for the logo.

 

[kirby11]

Def. gonna watch UB in the MAC championship rather than this tire fire. Idk if I want them to score, the longer the goalless streak goes, the higher the odds they fire Housley.

 

[MrMaster]

I don't care who wins, who's playing or what the sport is. You can call it pride, insanity or whatever. I'm watching for the logo.

Maybe they are playing for Juicy Fruit



Left side is Botteril, right side is Housley

Noticable moments in the video:
"You fooled them, you fooled them all."
"And they all think you're deaf and dumb?"
"What are we doing here?"

 

[Goathead]

Tanking or not Eichel better have a good game. He’s the captain of the team scoreless in three he’s gotta lead by example. If he’s out there moping around we’re in trouble. Put your money where your mouth is kid

 

[CrazyPsycho]

This will be the first game I wont watch live since about November...thanks Phil!
