GDT: Preseason Game 6: Sabres at Blue Jackets, 7 PM

[Ace]

Never seen a supposedly big goalie cover such a small amount of the net.

 

[Panthaz89]

UPL is so terrible at simply covering up the puck and killing the play.

 

[ValJamesDuex]

Olofsson looks so uncomfortable and awkward whenever the puck is on his stick.

no wonder Adams could not trade him

 

[Ralonzo]

Off Krebs body?

 

[BFLO]

Bunch of guys flubbed a clearing attempt on that shift. Woof.

 

[DapperCam]

Tuch kind of mailing it in at times today. I have zero issues with that.

It was deflection so I'll give him some slack. Would be nice if he could cover the puck to kill the play tho

Send him back to Sudbury

I think it was Benson that had a chance to get that out of the zone but couldn't.

 

[Ralonzo]

Johnson is really good at getting pucks through from the point

That's one thing, the other thing is he really opens up space between himself and a forechecker with just a stride or two when going for loose pucks.

Peterka's game is evolving into something that kinda reminds me of Glenn Anderson. Just needs to work on the shot for an offseason or two.

 

[stokes84]

Speaking of Krebs. He hasn’t done anything positive this preseason either. Kinda flys under the radar but he shouldn’t have any excuses left.

 

[joshjull]

I'm pretty sure Krebs deflected it with his glove.

Getting the same vibe from Dahlin.

 

[Paxon]

Perfect backdoor but Okie couldn't get wood on it

 

[CaliSabresfan24]

He hasn't been really playing with talent until tonight but playing between Benson and JJ he should be more noticable

Careful! I got jumped on for making the same comment. I honestly think his roster spot should NOT be safe. He wouldn't make a lot of rosters in the NHL (imo).

 

[BUCKSHOT]

RyJo can play defense

 

[Beerz]

Johnson is so fundamentally sound.

 

[sabremike]

UPL has been completely unremarkable at AHL level, why does anyone think he is ever going to amount to anything at this level?

 

[joshjull]

There is a bunch of them playing pick up.

 

[MarkusKetterer]

Well I clearly can’t check out what I was originally going to, as I just got off work. A 5 hour day, my ass.

 

[BFLO]

I think it was Benson that had a chance to get that out of the zone but couldn't.

He had the best chance to clear for sure. But he wasn't the only one.


Ry-Jo taking the body to shut down that bull rush. Haven't seen a Sabre D-man do that in a while

 

[CaliSabresfan24]

Careful! I got jumped on for making the same comment. I honestly think his roster spot should NOT be safe. He wouldn't make a lot of rosters in the NHL (imo).

We weren't jumping on you about the comment itself.. We were pointing out that your takes are almost always negative.

 

[ValJamesDuex]

Johnson is so fundamentally sound.

He really should be in Buffalo by January if not sooner

Happens quite often goalies play better in the NHL. Better systems/defense.
