Post-Game Talk: Sabres @ Caps, 7:07pm

[Skrudland2Lomakin]

Continue to be blown away by GMBM'S "dumpster dives". Leipsic has been an amazing pick up, Hathaway is exactly what you want in a bottom 6 player. Dowd is everything we asked for in a bottom 6 C., etc.


These are the guys who make or break a season.

Leipsic and Hathaway have been just what the bottom 6 needed. Guys with speed and energy. BMac for the win.

 

[Silky mitts]

17 minors in the Toronto game, I think just 1 tonight

Yeah, the only dud appears to be Panik but I do remember hearing from Yotes fans that he's generally a slow starter; maybe there's still hope.

I think you def have to give Panik more time.

 

[Calicaps]

it shouldn’t be all that frustrating if you believe in giving youngsters time to develop.

come on shot hits the guy in the ass and everyone ****s on him.

Nah. He made a laughable play in the first too. Frankly, if a rookie D is our biggest problem, we're livin' easy.

 

[aonb]

I'm at work and flashscore app crashed for me. How's the result and goalscorers please

 

[Blitzkrieg365]

Has the 1st line been pulled back a bit, or are they just so invisible tonight that I haven't noticed when they're out there?

Yes and yes.

 

[895]

Obviously nothing wrong with giving Siege time but there has to be improvement. So far, haven't really seen any.

No problem with that at all, but earlier in that shift he had an easy clear and he made a soft pass that got picked off that led to the shot off his ass.

I don’t know, it feels like he’s been invisible the last half dozen games or so. I don’t even notice him out there these days.

In all seriousness though, Reirden mentioned he thought Panik was starting to improve overall just before he got injured and that he thought it was kind of unfortunate timing. Kuzy being out the first few games didn’t help either. Hagelin started slow as well. I think Panik will figure it out eventually.

 

[SpinningEdge]

Not sure what is up with Kempny but this guy is crushing it

 

[peterthegreat12]

Kempny is such a good d-man. Damn.

 

[AtNightWeFly]

1st line is alive thankfully.

 

[Blitzkrieg365]

Oh my, that was an incredible pass.

 

[Calicaps]

Bet you saw that...

 

[marcel snapshot]

Jeez Kempny wizard pass
Love how it’s 2-1 us after we jump out 4-0

 

[Blitzkrieg365]

caps spoil us fans

Leipsic is an energy player but doesn't do much in his own end and he isn't physical. That's what has kept him from being a regular in the starting lineup throughout his career.

 

[Blitzkrieg365]

Give me any one of a:

Carlson Point
Ovechkin Goal
Vrana Goal

on this powerplay.

 

[maacoshark]

No problem with that at all, but earlier in that shift he had an easy clear and he made a soft pass that got picked off that led to the shot off his ass.

I think you are being way too hard on the youngster.

 

[Calicaps]

That was fun.

 

[Sam Spade]

These type of games are so good for a team. Keeps the ice time low for the top guys, no stress, opponent is soft so physical play is minimal, just get in and out of the arena with two points in your pocket.
