Wow. A good looking powerplay there

 

[Pavels Dog]

Best PP we've had all year!

 

[chances14]

especially on mrazek. that's where all his softies go in. deny it all you want.

Just because they score on goal on his weak spot, doesn't automatically make it a softie.

 

[rx7dryver]

teletubby finally scores again

He is not a butterfly goalie his arms aren't on his pads all the time. Its one of the best spots to go if you can pick it. Love to see how "quick" you are reacting to a 85-95mph wrister hitting the back of the net in under 1/2 a sec.

 

[chances14]

The no Finnish players jurco and helm living up to the name tonight lol

 

[SoupGuru]

DeKeyser is something like 5 for 6 on odd man rushes tonight.

 

[odin1981]

Nice to see Sheahan line be about being aggressive.

 

[chances14]

Sheahan having a fantastic game so far

 

[odin1981]

DeKeyser is something like 5 for 6 on odd man rushes tonight.

He is steady as hell but all the point ***** fans love to talk **** about him.

 

[Pavels Dog]

Sheahan has for the most part been playing very good the last 15-20 games. Hope the points start coming for him too, he's looking more confident now.

These refs though. Obvious hook on Sheahan missed, now another dive called.

 

[RedWingzz]

Sheahan looks like Mario Lemieux tonight

 

[Lazlo Hollyfeld]

ref doesn't call it until the Preds player throws his arms out flailing on the ice.

 

[Pavels Dog]

Z ate too much christmas ham. He has looked straight up awful tonight.

 

[obey86]

Z shoulda gone back to Abs on first glance.

 

[odin1981]

Damn that would have been the dagger that stakes out the heart if Z converted on that one.

Been bad for a while. He's my favorite Wing of all time but he's completely washed up at this point. Have no idea how he is leading the team in scoring...certainly doesn't match the eye test.

 

[SoupGuru]

I was more pointing how many are we going to ask him to defend by the time the game is over. Maybe not giving them up to begin with is a better course of action.

 

[RedWingzz]

Lol Buffalo just scored 3 in a row late inn the 3rd against Boston. Good job sabres

 

[chances14]

Green saved a goal

A lot of teams would love to have a completely washed up 60+ point player.

His goal scoring is down, likely because he lost a step, but he's still a great playmaker and sound defensively.

The problem is more lack of familiarity with his partner atm in addition to him playing his off side.

 

[odin1981]

Was up 3-1 over Mon with 7 minutes left in that game as well.

 

[sean3250]

If our leading point scorer for the past two years, who is 35, is washed up then what does that say about the rest of our team?

Great playmaker and can control the puck. Don't think he's anything better than average defensively at this point though. His speed is such a detriment in that area.
