GBU The Good, the Bad, and the Tuch. Lose at home to Montreal 3-1.

[Chainshot]

The Good -

Krebs' line buzzing early.
Greenway again with another very solid game.
Skinner from an odd angle.

The Bad -

Skinner from a not so odd angle.
How far behind my feed was.
Tuch's entire shift leading up to GA2.
Power's d-zone defensive issues were really pronounced tonight.

The Ugly -

The predictability of the Gallagher goal.
Tuch's season.

There are 2 great equalizers in life. Death and goalies.

I'll just say this. If they outplay their opponent like that every night they'll win a lot more than they lose.

 

[Fly Boy]

Start UPL tomorrow. What do you have to lose at this point?

 

[toddkaz]

Is Krueger coaching again?

Boring, listless, low energy and no sense of urgency.

Time for a closed door meeting. These guys gotta get their head out of their asses.

Don't worry boys next year is our year! - This is how we survive being a sabres fan

 

[stokes84]

Good:
Jake Allen
Sabres generally dominated

Bad:
The 2nd goal against. Turning point in the game. That can’t happen.

Ugly:
They need to find a way to get some ugly goals. The highlight reel stuff ain’t happening.

 

[CaliSabresfan24]

Tuch, Tage and Power need to step there game up. Brutal start of the season for those 3

Also, gotta tip the cap the Allen.. the guy was solid

 

[old kummelweck]

Yes they out shot the habs 2:1, but would you say they made it hard on Allen tonight?

Not when our goalie allowed 3 goals on 26 shots

That won't win in today's NHL

This commitment to D isn't winning us jack shit. Because we don't have the goalies to win these defensive games. Need to go back to fire wagon hockey if we do not make major changes to the core

 

[tsujimoto74]

This game was off the charts on the deserves-to-win-o-meter. At least when they play like they deserve to lose, well, they got what was coming. Games like this are so f***ing frustrating.

 

[oldgoalie]

Start UPL tomorrow. What do you have to lose at this point?

Not even tuning in for that one.

We suck at generating 5v5 Offense.

I'm including Dahlin. Despite a point streak, he's generally making f*** all happen.

Ditto for Krebs, Girgensons, Okposo, Olofsson(bahahahahaha he's still in the NHL).

 

[Ace]

Another game

Oh no. If we lose that one and a ton more…literally nothing will happen.

There is no standard. No effort from the front office on down.

 

[Old Navy Goat]

G all the amusing hot takes in the GDT
B inability to beat Allen in a game you dominate
U all the giving up proclamations that won't be followed through on
Astros showing up for game 7

They are such a perimeter team. Nobody likes the dirty areas.

 

[pigpen65]

Until the Sabres have a legit #1 goaltender it's just wheels spinning in mud. That game winner was pathetic

 

[DapperCam]

Comrie .885 save %
Allen .973 save %

There really isn’t anything else to say. Allen had many more difficult chances than the 2nd goal Comrie let in which was a softie.

I think through 6 games, their record is accurate on how they've played.

 

[Sound_n_Fury]

Where was the urgency? This team is not built to bear down...

 

[Zip15]

B: Looked up my first 2024 mock draft of the season before Halloween.

We might be the worst team in the division. I made a $50 bet with my brother tonight that Granato is canned before Christmas 2024. The life of a Sabres fan!

Dahlin needs to understand how good he is and take over games. He seems so lax offensively right now

 

[NotABadPeriod]

Team is winless when giving up the first goal (and all of those goals are f***ing early in the game, like within the first couple minutes). Team is undefeated when scoring first.

This team right now needs to play from in front. They're constantly chasing the game with an offense that is stuck in reverse.
