GDT: Game 3 Sabres @ CBJ (10/7) (7:00 PM)

[SabresFan26]

Not the best game but a lot to learn and grow from. Great to battle back and get a point on the road.

You could see it on Jack's face before the faceoff he was still breathing a bit heavy, needed one more shift I think.

Went 1:09 for the first shift sat for 29 seconds and right back out

Poor game. Stole a point. Figure it out for Wednesday.


This team is permanently dangerous with Olofsson on the ice, though.

 

[Ralonzo]

Please don’t tell me it was Jack with the around the glass **** again?

It was Jack with the "face the glass, let Foligno skate up to me and take the puck and throw it to his guy alone in the slot"

 

[Snippit]

Eichel hasn't been great to start the year...we need more from him at even strength. He can't go two out of three games without points, I'm sorry.

Before the OT I thought he had been mostly pretty good in the D zone and neutral zone but just not enough offensively outside the PP. 0 points at ES in 3 games reflects that.

No, he has a sequence where he owned the puck 20 feet in front of their net. Later on in double shift he thought he was invincible, tried it again and got clowned

In this case he should have went around the glass. Skated himself into the corner and got pick pocketed.

 

[BuffaloGooner]

Jesus Christ the takes in here are horrendous. It’s game 3!

Just as egregious.

 

[Moskau]

That's pretty embarrassing. Hope he learns from that

I said that to myself when he was a rookie. He seems to have both too little respect for his opponents and too much respect for his opponents at the same time. Doesn't take prime shots when he could or doesn't blow by guys when he could but will then hold on to a puck in a situation like that when he's exhausted and flat footed.

 

[Daz28]

Worst part is he could have easily got it back to VO

 

[CrazyPsycho]

Yikes this is all time HOT TAKE city

Stole a point. Came back down 2. Columbus played desperate and were on their best. And their best is not better then ours. I am actually pleased with the result. Totally outplayed and yet still got a point on the road against a desperate winless team.


Dahlin 5 points in 3 games. Rough game overall from him.

 

[Not Sure]

That's the cute play that needs to be drilled out of his head. You arent in college, these are NHL players, stop trying to dummy them. Tries to clown Jones and gets sat down, then skates himself into a corner thinking hes slick enough to beat man to man coverage and they make him look stupid.

If Kruger wants to bring culture to the locker room he needs to address it. Eichel needs to play on the second line, and if he keeps doing it put him in the press box. Captain or not, you havent won s***, play like your job depends on it every shift, stop trying to do stuff that works on your summer pick up games. Damn it, it's so frustrating.

 

[sabremike]

3 full pages of "Jack sux" hot taeks? Good lord guys, we're supposed to better than that.

 

[Sabreality]

thrilled with the point. on to the next one, good learning experience

 

[Buffaloed]

Sabres 1 point on the road, Leafs 0 point at home

 

[KeyserSoze81]

Eichel looked gassed, should not have been double shifted for 8 minutes especially when he looked like dog shit for most of those minutes. Still a terrible decision, but the better team won.

 

[Tatre]

I think Jack will adjust, in time. Showed better effort on defense before.

Ummm, I'm pissed at Jack right now but there's a lot of horrible takes in this post.

Or reversed it around to Risto who was doing what he should and gave Jack an outlet. Risto was more wide open than VO.

Are you remotely surprised. Histrionics is the name of the game on here.

 

[DatGuy]

Jesus Christ the takes in here are horrendous. It’s game 3!

it is because 3 of the 20 players are different from last year, the roster is basically the same. We know what they are.

He made a bad play and deserved to be roasted for it. He doesn't suck, just made a boneheaded play. It happens.

Dahlin? He was far and away the Sabres best players tonight. One of the very few bright spots IMO.
