In spite of a couple of mistakes near the end, it's All good today.

The Blues have been doing well under Yeo. This was a big win for the Sabres.

Thank you to Rochester for the great development.
Sorry you don't win more. Wish you did. Hope you do soon.
But as a Sabres fan, development takes priority to me.

 

[MayDayMayDay]

G:
Baptiste, Eichel, Kane, Bailey, ROR, Risto, Lehner

It's all good for me right now.

Forget games in hand for a second: as of this very minute, we are one point back of the wild card boys.

And Sabres hockey is exciting again.

G: 56% - 44% at the dot
B: Outshot by double digits again
U: Jake had a day to forget

Way to go, boys! Played their ***** off after giving up the early goal. When Tarasenko scored, I was thinking, "Oh boy here we f*$@ing go".

It's nice to see the young players on the team exuding strong leadership qualities.

Someone posted a graph of where the opposing shots came from a few games ago. I wasnt really paying to much attention today but were they able to shots to the outside?

If someone could link that site I would appreciate it. Thanks.

 

[Sabres]

Eichel creates so many chances it's absurd, including the penalties he draws.

Resign Kane.

At the draft we need to trade our 1st rounder+ whatever it takes for a legit defensemen, like the Flames did with Hamilton. This team could be dominant with a better defense.

That's credit to Murray really. Murray wanted Bylsma's system throughout the organization so it was a smooth transition from Rochester to Buffalo.

It's time for this warrior to ride off into the sunset.

He is done. Everything he does takes so much effort. Its hard to watch.

Bad:
Gorges

I agree.

This guy needs to go in the summer. For whatever we can get. Even if we have to throw away a pick to do so. I can't imagine how poor he'll be come the middle of next season.

This guy needs to hang em up.

 

[sabresfan129103]

They've won 3 in a row since Lehner called them out. Have they won 4 straight all year?

 

[La Cosa Nostra]

Crazy that at the age of 32 Josh Gorges is just done. He doesn't have the talent anymore to play a meaningful role. In his Montreal days he was a solid 2nd pairing guy and now he's done at 32. Montreal must have known the wheels were about to fall off and moved him. Wish he would have accepted the trade to Toronto so he didn't come here.

 

[JThorne]

Foligno was in the bad column for me. He could barely stay on his skates all game.

Don't forget that he had microfracture surgery on his knee in 2015. A lot of athletes who have microfracture surgery never make it back where they were before.

 

[AustonsNostrils]

The good - we're a long shot to make the playoffs but we're going to play some meaningful games in March and it's been a long time since that happened.

Eichel with 8 shots on goal. Beastmode.
