GDT: Game 16: Sabres vs Canadiens - 11/8 7:30pm ET (MSG-B, WGR 550)

[GrierIsGod123]

Gotta love sending the francophones home unhappy!

It's a Festivus miracle!!!! Now for the airing of the grievances!

 

[NotABadPeriod]

This game does NOT MAKE SENSE. But I'll take it!

If Chewbacca lives on Endor, you must acquit!

 

[dortt]

Risto literally pulled a Homer

He succeeded despite utter stupidity. Getting caught again in the O zone is inexcusable

 

[La Cosa Nostra]

Yes!!!!

Sabres over a 3 gpg this year 20% of the season through...and in a playoff spot. I love this.

 

[Buffaloed]

When Risto started winding up I was thinking oh nooo don't shoot!!! When you miss that's going back the other way with the Sabres trying to change lines.

 

[darcyRegier]

Let's not forget that Risto was utter garbage for the entire game...

But anyways, a win is a win. Its weird watching a team that can score a lot. I'm excited to see how this season unfolds.

Took a break from studying to tune into the last ~7 minutes of regulation + OT --- thanks for making it worth it, Sabres

Did I hear someone in the crowd shout "Merde!"???

It’s f***ing 3 on 3 hockey.

Cripes.

 

[Chainshot]

Clearly the way to fix the blueline is play ERod back there right?

 

[Dahlin 2 Eichel]

What a god damn roller coaster of a game. I absolutely LOVE this team. So much fight. Sloppy game but 2 points are 2 points!!

Can't go back the other way if you score

I don't think any of us are forgetting. We just find it incredibly ironic and somewhat humorous that this is how it ended.

 

[old kummelweck]

what was that celly from risto after the goal? was that him sodomizing price?

 

[darcyRegier]

It’s ****ing 3 on 3 hockey.

Cripes.

Risto had possession of the puck in the ozone, lost possession, and then got tangled up with a Habs player in an effort to slow him down. Habs player easily gets loose, and handily outskates Risto down the ice and misses the net by inches. Risto lucked the f*** out

If Risto can be a positive consistent contributor offensively I can live with his many defensive lapses. Won't like it, but I can live with it. We need him producing more offense than he has.

I was thinking earlier that Risto might be less terrible as a forward, so let's switch them up.

[littletonhockeycoach]

Poor goaltending at both ends of the ice, sub-caliber defense and we end up getting an old fashion run and gun type of NHL hockey game.

Curses on Jacques LeMaire, the New jersey Devils and their frickin neutral zone trap.

Add the goaltender equipment manufacturers to that curse list......

It worked out this time and I am not complaining, but that won’t work every time.

Price probably thought "go ahead and shoot because you'll miss the net and my team will get an odd man rush out of it"

And got caught napping......LOL

 

[toomuchsauce]

Big up to E-Rod for his positioning on that odd-man rush in OT.

There's definitely one thing you can't take away from Risto: he's got a f***in clapper.
