Pretty sweet win for the Sabres. Now just praying that RJ is ok!

The man is an icon, an institution and a Buffalo treasure!

 

[Dubi Doo]

Solid first two periods. They were dead tired in the third, and the Ducks were well rested. Glad to get the win.

 

[Chainshot]

They've become a hard team to play against at home.

 

[sabres4ever]

Ullmark is my first star of this game. Rock solid.

 

[vcv]

Come on RJ, be ok.

Hard to enjoy this win right now.

 

[EmeraldCitySabre]

Nice game, nice shutout, nice W.

Praying for RJ.

 

[EichHart]

The biggest takeaway is we actually have our goalie of the future, I’ve seen enough. Ullmark is great.

 

[CrazyPsycho]

They won! Terrible 3rd.. ullmark is a psycho

 

[jc17]

Not to downplay RJ's situation, it sounds like he's alright.

I understand the concern, but I think it's a little irresponsible that as soon as he left there were "thoughts and prayers" tweets.

Imagine being his family reading that with no context if in fact he was simply light headed. Even if it was serious, I think its odd

 

[Maut]

Everybody keep RJ in your thoughts. Hope he's doing ok.

 

[Reddawg]

I agree. However I’m honestly really impressed with how well Duffer has hit the ground running and actually sounds great. I like him better than Dunleavy.

Duffer is fantastic, it’s a rare skill to be able to come in cold like that and just own it. I really hope he’s the heir-apparent, not that I want RJ going anywhere, ever.

 

[Sansbacon]

Ullmark is my first star of this game. Rock solid.

Definitely. I’d like to see Pilut get a star this game; he’s awesome.

 

[tsujimoto74]

That's...not good. Hope RJ is okay.

 

[Vito_81]

I hope RJ is okay

I know it’s way too early to speculate, but if tonight does end up being RJs final broadcast due to retirement. Its fitting that his final goal call is of Dahlin

 

[MayDayMayDay]

Great win. Hoping RJ is ok. So worried right now.

 

[Not Sure]

Was listening to RJ on the drive home and switched over to the Anaheim broadcast when I was able to watch the game. What happened with RJ?

[hizzoner]

We have a number of players not used to the travel, the number of games etc. As they get used to the nhl, getting more mature and stronger, they should have legs for the whole game. This was a game they needed and the guys we count on came through.

 

[Maut]

By the way, I think Linus should be starting a lot more now but I understand if Hutton starts against his old team.

 

[La Cosa Nostra]

I hope RJ is okay

I know it’s way too early to speculate, but if tonight does end up being RJs final broadcast due to retirement. Its fitting that his final goal call is of Dahlin

Forget that. It would only be fitting if his last goal called was a SCF series winning goal. Rick will be OK.

Botts deserves a round of applause for saving Ullmark from Vegas. Ullmark is our future. We are so fortunate to possess 2 top end goalies.

 

[WeDislikeEich]

Glad we won but it is just a total afterthought at the moment.

Thoughts and prayers with RJ.

 

[CrazyPsycho]

Jesus i heard about rj on the way out....is he ok?

 

[Jeremy2020]

Best Wish for RJ. Hope he's ok.

 

[OkimLom]

I think RJ might have PTSD or something. Hoping this doesn't turn into another Lehner situation!

Can we get a dislike button installed?
