[Tsyolin]

Man that was awesome to watch. What a game.

 

[Howie Hodge]

Pilut wins it in OT

I hope the man is back up before the new year.

 

[Chainshot]

Pilut with the heroics. Seems like he's picked up from where he left off when he was first called up (and Phil messed with him).

f***ing Phil, man. Pilut was never the same.

 

[Buffaloed]

How did Luke Schenn sink so low?

 

[Tsyolin]

Alongside Pilut, the newcomers Dea and Lazar had a big game tonight with 2 goals and 2 assists for both of them. Man if Gilmour was down there and 6K was in net this team could be even better than that.

****ing Phil, man. Pilut was never the same.

Same thing happened with Guhle the year before too - was playing well in Rochester, got called up and sent down, never to look the same.

Considering how Borgen said how different things were in terms of defensive scheme and tactics between Buffalo and Rochester, it's quite evident terrible lessons were being taught and it really messed with tons of players.

That's a very strange way to run things. I know Toronto, and I would assume most organizations, play the same system in the AHL as they do in the NHL to ease the transistion.

That's some incompetent management on display. Hopefully they straightened it out.

There was an article about how Ralph led meetings with the staffs from Buffalo. Rochester, and Cincinnati to brainstorm an organizational playing style and then all get on the same page.

 

[Tatanka]

I think he can see a way forward with the lack of physical play among most of their current NHL blueline.

Fitzgerald seems to be following his example. Nice.

Fitzgerald seems to be following his example. Nice.

He could be the unheralded gem of their blueline. His defensive chops in Boston were noteworthy.

 

[Chainshot]

What's wrong with Leier's shoulder?

 

[Revelate]

The Amerks are absolutely dominating Springfield but only have one goal to show for. 35-13 in shots 7:29 left in the second. Tage is spending a lot of time around the net which you like to see.

I posted the highlights from the article about that last month
The Athletic - Ralph Krueger - “We’re Building Sabres Hockey Here"

 

[Revelate]

Amerks have had multiple chances to put this game away and didn’t. Naturally it’s now 1-1.

 

[Revelate]

Lazar stoned on the breakaway. Murray hits the post on the breakaway...

 

[Buffaloed]

Henrik Borgstrom scores on the PP to win it for the TBirds 2-1 in OT.

Good game for Johansson despite the loss. What's going with Hammond? Chris O'Shea is a Ryan Vinz class backup.

[Tsyolin]

I had previous obligations so I missed the game last night, sounded to me like another game where they dominated possession but just couldn't finish. Oh well I can't really be upset at having points in 7 out of 9 games so far.

 

[Buffalo Norsemen]

I wonder at this point if Taylor is going to stay up in Buffalo for the season ?

Depends on if Granato is able to return to coaching at some point this year.
