Post-Game Talk (GBU): Sabres @ Penguins 2/22, 1:00 PM

[Kyndig]

Two really late hits on Johansson. No injury so I guess no penalty and no suspensions. Prison rules in Sabres games continues. Pens got away with A LOT..refs gotta keep it even though.

Imagine we would be in a playoff spot right about now if Hutton wasn't our #1 goalie coming into the season.

Dirtiest team in the league. Been that way a long time now. But they are one of the league darlings. It is what it is.

Is it his ribs from when Risto crunched him?

 

[Chainshot]

The Rasmi overall had a good game today. Both got points too. Before Risto and Dahlin did it last year when was the last time we had 2 40 point dmen? 05-06? And before that probably not since the mid 90s.

Yeah, Teppo and Soupy in '05-06 both had over 40. Prior to that? Housley and Bodger in '89-90.

 

[Paxon]

The Sabres are a hell of a team. Hell of a team.

 

[Sabretooth]

Good start. Expecting the script to flip in the 2nd/3rd tho....

This has 4-3ot loss written all over it

At least I can count on the sabres to always fail to meet my expectations

 

[valet]

What is that now? Points in the last 5/6? Not bad.

 

[Asymmetric Solution]

Sure

Jack to 1RW, Sam is now our 1C

Jack to 1RW, Sam is now our 1C

more like Jack is the 1C but Sam is the main face off guy. Sam is going to need to improve exponentially.

I was joking but would love Sam to get used to it and start next season as our 2C.

okay. I agree though.

What an odd strategy

View attachment 325039

Maybe Eichel can activate his invisibility shield whenever he wants. How else to explain why he was COMPLETELY left alone there...

 

[NorCalhockey]

Deserved win, a lot like the Toronto game.

Play more like this, and the narrative on the year would be 100% different.

[sigh] Coulda, woulda, shoulda.....Even with more wins than losses lately, Sabres still won't make the playoffs. Like I've said before on HFBoards Sabres, I'm pissed/gutted the team wasted a Hart-level year from Eichel.

 

[Krispy]

Girg tied 9mil per season guy in goals.

Bodger and Who?
