Would be nice to get another win tonight and have some momentum rolling into the weekend against Toronto.

Yeah, it will be nice if they can start a winning streak, and Hodgson can help them continue it this weekend.
Go Amerks!

Looks like I won't be able to catch this game (will be watching the Wolves game), but hopefully we can get the 2 points!

Pysyk is a healthy scratch. Parker had an early post. Porter in the low right slot chips in a nice Mancari pass (Foligno with second assist), but Monsters come right back and score two as Sgarbossa nets his tenth on a rebound (Thomas, Olver assists) and then Thomas from Sgarbossa on the PP.

4-1 LE. :facepalm:

I have yet to see Brennan out there in the second... took another hot-head penalty in the first, idk if he's injured or benched. Rolston had Varone out there between Foligno and Parker for the next faceoff, so he's obviously attempting to juggle lines/pairings.

EDIT: Back to Foligno-Varone-Flynn.

Adam on a scrambly sort of play closes the gap, 4-2 now.

Edit: Lone assist to Porter, although JGL had the initial dump-in. A very Andreychuk-y goal from the crease, Adam using his reach and hands to finish.

Edit 2: Rochester carrying play since the Adam goal, looks like it fired em up.

Sgarbossa and Thomas go 2-on-2 and convert with a cross-ice feed in the last minute. Not well defended at all by either Rochester d-man, didn't see who it was. 5-2 LE now.

JGL was defending Sgarbossa on the near side; Biega I believe was defending Thomas. I saw none of Brennan that period.

End of 2. 5-2 LE. Shots 27-13 LE. RCH 4v5 1:20.

MacKenzie goes from playing shutdown minutes to the back of a milk carton after a bad game. Pysyk goes from top-pairing with McNabb to healthy scratch after a rough game. Meanwhile, several underperformers find themselves in the lineup every night. Rolston's a hack.

Well what do you know, Legault shovels one in on a bad rebound of a Biega point shot, 5-3. Porter with the 2nd assist. Still very early in the 3rd.

He's either the worst coach ever or the Sabres are calling the shots on everything.

agreed, pretty much what I posted earlier in the thread. Rolston has favorites? :sarcasm:

6-3 again, another brutal breakdown in defensive coverage.

Sundher-Foligno-Girgensons the line now, all 3 of them have been going tonight.

This is wild, Sundher rags the puck to the right point, throws it at net and Foligno tips it home, 6-4. Mancari might get the 2nd assist.

Edit: Make it Crawford on the 2nd assist.

Gonna get even more wild, goal light is on, Amerks celebrating, but neither ref saw the puck in.

Off to review we go, could be 6-5 when we get back.

Edit: Review says: goal. Might be Foligno's.

Edit 2: Nope, Parker from Brennan and Sundher is announced.
