GDT: Game 34: Sabres vs Bruins - 12/16 5pm ET (MSG-B, WGR 550)

[DolanPlsGoSabres]

Didn't watch the game, just scoresheet watching, had to go to school.

Jakob Forsbacka Karlsson just seems like a name that somebody would give on Be a Pro mode.
Let's take 3 amazing Swedish names and put them together!!!

20 wins by mid December

The only thing sweeter than that win is the taste of Bruins fans tears as they cry themselves to sleep every night knowing Eichel will never play for them.

 

[toomuchsauce]

This is wild. Absolutely wild.

 

[jd1970]

Ullmark and Sutton had great 3rd periods this weekend

 

[joshjull]

Sam has been good to great when contributing to the offensive side of that line. But he really needs to tighten up his defensive play. Its been uncharacteristically sloppy of late.

 

[SabresFan26]

What a team win. Girgensons blocks shot, Reinhart unselfish play, and Jack buries it.

 

[darcyRegier]

It’s just too bad Eichel isn’t great and will never be great, right guys?

Someone said they'd rather have Barzal and Aho instead of him

 

[Ralonzo]

Buffalo NHL and NFL teams today: 2-0
Boston NHL and NFL teams today: 0-2

Great team win by 6 of the forwards, 2 of the defensemen and the goalie tonight.

 

[Dingo44]

It was never about if he was going to be, but what he earned to that point.

 

[Ralonzo]

20 wins by mid December

Barely 2.5 months ahead of pace, slackers

 

[toomuchsauce]

Dahlin with a 64.5% CF tonight, wtf

 

[sabrebuild]

Last night was the first time I felt like Eichel was really building a hot streak.

4 point night incoming.

Thank you Carny man, I’ll take the purple elephant, my girl is partial to that shade of win!

This is twice now that Jack has gone 2+2 with an ENG in Boston, isn't it? Guess that'll have to do... until he goes 3+3

Someone said they'd rather have Barzal and Aho instead of him

Is this a hot take? Aho + Brazal would be a good trade for Eichel.

 

[Samsonite23]

How long were Jack and Sam out there at the end? They still had enough left in the tank to finish it off. Seemed like they were out for an eternity.

I mis-typed, someone on the Sabres board was suggesting that he'd rather have gotten Aho or Barzal out of the 2015 draft

Cheerfully withdrawn.

Reinhart got out for the last minute because Erod couldn’t get off for like 45 seconds until Skinner willed it out.

Jack was out for at least the last two minutes.

I think he said he envisioned them passing Eichel in a 2015 re-draft.

I’m sure he’s glad to have been proven wrong. Eichel has really found a new level this season.

Bruins anouncers were whining about the Pats game all night. They had it coming.

I completely agree, he seems like he's jumping to early to transition back up the ice. I really love his offensive work though this season. He's been on such a roll with his passing.
