That isn't GI in my opinion.

It's not even just goaltender interference. It's plain interference on Severson...

 

[34]

If that counts I will be shocked. However if it does I'm fine with it if it means everyone can now do it.

Matthews has been in an awful slump. You can see the frustration in his face. One way or another... won’t matter.

Edit: 7th goal in 9 games.

 

[TheBeastCoast]

Matthews won a battle for position and the puck was already lose in the crease before contact. That has to be a goal in my opinion. Won't be shocked either way.

lmao

 

[Sheppy]

That’s the right call

 

[Beerz]

Why did they sing the Canadian national anthem in the game between Buffalo and Florida?
Thanks!

Because Canada is like 15 minutes from Buffalo and a lot of season ticket holders live in Canada

 

[Albus Dumbledore]

Good goal. Hit the weight room Severson.

 

[TheBeastCoast]

It's not even just goaltender interference. It's plain interference on Severson...

There isn't a penalty for being stronger.

 

[Muston Atthews]

Severson tries to body Matthews and gets ragdolled. Not Matthews fault he’s a big man.

 

[Sam Spade]

Do what? Be stronger then the d-man? Its a physical sport at the end and battles happen in front of the net

Hey if shoving a guy in the crease into the goaltender counts, again I am happy.

 

[CantLoseWithMatthews]

It's not even just goaltender interference. It's plain interference on Severson...

it's a battle against a significantly weaker player. not a penalty

 

[Skolman]

it's a battle against a significantly weaker player. not a penalty

You guys get his point.

If it was reversed you would be complaining as well.

I get it from both sides.

Thanks!

There was 1 game they didn’t sing the Canadian anthem, Buffalo v Soviet Union, the crowd booed.

 

[Jersey Fresh]

There isn't a penalty for being stronger.

Lol!

There is for hitting a guy without the puck.

 

[Albus Dumbledore]

Well then. Not the slew foot but something was called.

 

[Eat The Rich]

Lol!

There is for hitting a guy without the puck.

So you're saying that since Severson initiated contact and Mattthews didn't have the puck he should have gotten an interference penalty?

 

[Kelly]

Lol!

There is for hitting a guy without the puck.

That's a hit to you?

Do you think every net front battle is deserving of an interference?

 

[TheBeastCoast]

Lol!

There is for hitting a guy without the puck.

They were battling for position in front of the net and Severson got tossed. Again there isn't a penalty in the NHL for being stronger then the other guy that engages with you.

No way!?
Ahahah!
Any idea when they started singing he Canadian national anthem in Buffalo during American only teams?

Buffalo is located quite literally on the border with Ontario. The Peace Bridge crosses the Niagara River to connect downtown Buffalo with Ft. Erie, Ontario. For as long as there have been Sabres games both the Canadian and US national anthems are played at each and every game regardless of who the Sabres are playing as a sign of respect to the fans and season ticket holders who come to the game from Southern Ontario, of which there are a very good number.

We also have an ungodly number of Tim Hortons and old grain elevators wrapped up to look like Labatt's Blue cans. Living in a border town is cool.

Seems to be a lot of Hitchcocks in here.

Makes complete sense.
Thank you!

 

[theK00LAIDman]

Makes complete sense.
Thank you!

Especially makes sense when you figure that most cities are ringed by suburbs on all sides. Buffalo's western suburbs are Fort Erie, and Welland, Ontario.

 

[aufheben]

Kesler still a piece of shit I see.

 

[TheBeastCoast]

Well this is better.
