GBU SABRES STILL HAVE A CHANCE...Sabres Beat the Canes 4-3

[ValJamesDuex]

The defense looked way better once Granato switched up the pairings. That was a damn good defensive performance in the third.

REALLY hoping these are the last 4 we see Hank here, Boosh too inconsistent (although he had a good stretch, Stillman 6/7 fine.

I don't think Joki was bad today. His last two games he has been thinking little faster.

The forwards have to stop blowing the zone early, it's very simple against dangerous teams.

Stillman has been a nice surprise, he knows he is limited and makes the right play more times than not.

Dahlin was incredible. He made huge play after huge play.

Really can’t ask for much more than this. A lot of the team was awesome today.

 

[The Blunder Years]

Crazy where we’re at when you look at the lineup from opening night 2021-22. That’s only a year and a half ago.

Don't live life bitter, it will eat you up inside, if it hasn't already


sounds like some out of town GBU's

It bothers you when the Sabres do good, huh?

 

[Jim Bob]

Live to fight another day!

I can name a bunch of times this season where I would question, how bad do u really want it rather than waiting til the last minute when ur back is against the wall to make something happen.

Sabres just won their first playoff game today.

In general this team has been criticized for the opposite. Crumbling under pressure, or only performing when the games don’t really matter.

I think a big part of the reasons for our up and down season has been injuries and lack of depth to cover for those injuries.

REALLY hoping these are the last 4 we see Hank here, Boosh too inconsistent (although he had a good stretch, Stillman 6/7 fine.

And I've wanted #23 and #26 spilt up all season because they are the most consistent and need to buoy up or balance a lesser d-man, not concentrate the wealth.

If they are not gone for next season, my hierarchy
Dahlin - Power
Samuelson - Johnson (if he signs and makes team) or UFA upgrade, or Joker trade acquisition
Boosh - Stillman
7. UFA

8. Joker (if not traded)

9. Bryson/Upgrade
10. Clague/Upgrade

Mark of a young team, wouldn't you say?

was out a little too late last night, decided to take a ‘quick pre-game nap’ that turned into a 3 hour nap. but we won, so who cares

Watched on tape delay..

Mitts was fantastic

Dahlin was clutch.

Levi a rock.

Sammy a beast.

Skinner was all over the place.

Thompson came up big when needed.

Stillman and Power were solid.

Nice win boys.


Edit: Great crowd today too.

I was at the game. Yes Dahlin was great but believe me Mittelstadt and Cozens were monsters--just great games. Our pp was awful so it was good to see Dahlin go to the high slot and shoot-and get it through. Tage was hobbling. I have more but will think more before posting.

 

[Asymmetric Solution]

Kjell’s son was an absolute savage today. Might’ve been my favorite game for him this year on top of Dahlin’s.

Two Swedish drengrs tonight.

 

[Rowley Birkin]

We're going to need another category for these which is better than good.

I propose we just call it the 'Dahlin'.

 

[Bendium]

Turned the game on half way through the 3rd. Saw that Jost had just under 6 mins played. Did he get injured?

They severely shortened the bench, to mostly, older, experienced, size.

 

[scoopscj]

What an amazing game. Sabres played their hearts out. Dahlin was amazing. Just wanted to say "nice job" and I hope you guys get in.
