Post-Game Talk (GBU): Barn burner at the Bell

[Gabrielor]

Btw, Dahlin made some mistakes, for sure, but:

5v5 Corsi 18-12 (60.00%)
+2 Rating

Not bad for an off night...

 

[joshjull]

This team is fun at times. That’s new.

 

[darcyRegier]

G:

- Won a game that they desperately needed to win
- Still in a wildcard spot!
- Eichel currently tied for 7th in scoring
- Skinner tied for 4th in goals
- Erod was awesome
- Hutton
- 3-4 seconds of Risto

B:

- Ullmark had a bad night, I'm confident he'll bounce back though
- Entire d corps outside of Bogo
- Jack in the first two periods
- Powerplay

U:

- Max Domi's mustache...he looks like a dick

 

[Buttons85]

G:
Rodrigues
Eichel
Skinner
Sobotka
Berglund
Risto's Redemption
Girgensons's mustache

B:
Pretty much the whole defense except Bogo
Ullmark

U:

The penalty killing has to get the unsung hero for tonight. They killed two five on threes.

Good call.

Several blocked shots...ERod and co were threatening with some chances short handed...sticks were active...

 

[Snippit]

Hard to do a GBU because a bunch of players were bad for 2 periods but then turned it on in the 3rd.

Let's just say I'm happy with a W

 

[Dahlin 2 Eichel]

G: win
Hutton in the 3rd
Erod
Eichel and skins are magical

B: no points for dahlin
Short handed goal by some full face gorilla

U: price @ 10.5mil

The AutoCorrect is sometimes too close to the truth. LOL

Speaking of autocorrect, my buddy just sent me a text saying, “That Eichel Facebook, so sexy.” Made me lol.

My thoughts exactly. Being in the hunt come the new year would make this better than the last few years lol

 

[jBuds]

Bogosian’s play has been superb. Again, happy to eat crow there, and hopeful it maintains as long as possible.

G: I think Hutton played the puck more in 20+min than Ullmark did all night, thats a pretty important part of this team, especially when this D core cant pass outside of Dahlin & Bogo

 

[DapperCam]

Good:
- Mittelstadt was awesome
- Even when Eichel has kind of a meh game, he picks up 2 points

Bad:
- Refs swallowed their whistles the last 8 min or so. Sabres were all over them, and the Habs were just stalling for the bell to end the round.
- Risto has gotten really bad recently. Not sure what is going on. Worst he’s ever been. Can we pick up a second pair dman for like a 2nd round pick or something, and spread his minutes out a bit.
- Ullmark was worse than Price, and Price was pretty bad.

This was the FIRST thing to cross my mind, and I really wonder if he sticks with Ullmark if we were tied.

I said to myself, I bet the change had a bit, if not more, to do with Hutton moving the puck and stopping the hard dumpins and wraps.

Some will say that’s giving Housley too much credit

 

[Team Cozens]

Good: Risto
Bad: Risto
Ugly: Risto

 

[Royal Thunder]

I liked Berglund tonight

 

[Snippit]

Fun fact: Jason Pominville is 3rd in the league in 5v5 p/60

Slight uptick in Sheary’s level of play over the last three contests?

 

[Chainshot]

Marty Biron is a were-husky.

 

[Ace]

Watching the goal highlights and I’d already forgotten Mittelstadt’s awesome pass on the Sheary goal

 

[Chainshot]

Slight uptick in Sheary’s level of play over the last three contests?

Yeah. He’s getting into seems. That goal was a demonstration in elusiveness, getting into an opening while completely surrounded by four Habs.

 

[Chainshot]

Watching the goal highlights and I’d already forgotten Mittelstadt’s awesome pass on the Sheary goal

He also had a number of pursuit plays where he stripped the park by catching his check from behind. Reminds me of Datsyuk.

 

[Dingo44]

Eichel tied for third in the NHL in assists. Skinner tied for second in the league in goals and plus/minus. Sabres in a playoff spot.

Skinner's 5th in goals (P. Kane and Meier scored tonight), but still that's mighty impressive
