Post-Game Talk (GBU): The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly - Our Kingdom for a Powerplay - Habs over Sabres in a SO 3-2

[Chainshot]

Good:

Thompson all over the Habs in the first, setting the table for Skinner for GF1
Clifton forechecking leads to the GTG.
Physical investment again.
Levi was excellent.
The PK late.
Benson.
Four-on-four, end-to-end in OT.

Bad:

The PP remains the elephant in the room. A massive, stupid, ill-conceived elephant in the room. I would fire Ellis tonight.
Guhle's need for double runners.

Ugly:

That major on Robinson.
Nothing on Gallagher.

You can point the finger at coaching for allowing this horrible pp to fester

 

[CaliSabresfan24]

Overall a very entertaining game. Love the added physically and finishing checks but holy f*** do something about the PP

You can't go 0-6 and expect to win.

Also the 5 min major is bullshit but again... you went 0 for f***ing 6 on PP!!

 

[SabreOil]

Whoever is in charge of the pp can go to hell

 

[SharkInABoloTie]

Good: Hey at least we were hitting for once.

Bad: How has our scoring dried up so badly?

Ugly: This team remains unable to win 2 games in a row.

 

[CaliSabresfan24]

4th line grinder Matt f***ing Ellis baby!!!

I know? makes sooo much sense right?!

Also the 5 min major is bullshit! f*** the French floppy bastards

And they fuqn reviewed it the scum. Liked the fight in the sabres. Watchable

B: hahaha we lost to Slavkosky.
U: Bro, with the Sabres being meh, the tv coverage being all over the place, and the league being trash- I’m legit losing interest. It clearly ain’t level when that Gallagher shit goes uncalled, and I just don’t care for a league with sliding/nonexistent standards. Like- I’ll tune into the NFL cause I’ll see some enjoyable shit, regardless of the score. In the nhl I’ll see any talent handicapped by goonery and whatever the score/penalty situation is- the f*** does that have to do with what is and isn’t a penalty? But you know damn well time and score considerations are the most important factors in a penalty call. That’s f***ing insane, f*** the league, peace yo.

 

[Sabre the Win]

Remember the good ole fire Darcy chants we got going in the arena? We need a fire the PP coach to get something to happen.

Can we at least get it trending?

 

[sabres4ever]

Someone has got to ask donnie or kevyn when they are going to get someone new for the PP.

 

[sabremike]

How the f*** does Matt Ellis still have a job? Seriously, the guy is clearly incompetent.

 

[5 Minute Major]

I remember Lindy Ruff saying the Sabres needed to bear down and bury their chances when he was our coach.

I think that’s appropriate for tonight.

 

[Chainshot]

4th line grinder Matt f***ing Ellis baby!!!

I know? makes sooo much sense right?!

It really doesn't have anything to do with how he played or where he played. It's that he's not good at the job he has right now.

 

[Ace]

God help me I can’t wait to hear how Rivet and Peters talk about getting all the hitting they ever wanted and still losing to another shit team

 

[CaliSabresfan24]

It really doesn't have anything to do with how he played or where he played. It's that he's not good at the job he has right now.

Regardless who it is, it sure as hell looks like a career 4th liner is running it. A change needs to be made

 

[sabremike]

To be fair they also took a giant thermonuclear shit all over Matt Ellis (who is the guilty party tonight).

 

[Chainshot]

Regardless who it is, it sure as hell looks like a career 4th liner is running it. A change needs to be made

I seriously would walk him out of the building tonight.

 

[Ace]

How the f*** does Matt Ellis still have a job? Seriously, the guy is clearly incompetent.

This is the most pressing need that they can actually fix right now. You want the team to play they way they did today at 5 on 5 every night. But the PP has to f***ing stop

 

[Ehran]

Ugly: This game should not have gotten to OT.

 

[MarkusKetterer]

This is the most pressing need that they can actually fix right now. You want the team to play they way they did today at 5 on 5 every night. But the PP has to f***ing stop

No no. The PP has to start

 

[Tatanka]

Good:
Levi
Benson
OK
TT
BAD:
TT too many dumb passes
Mitts same
Power
Dahlin...shoit the freakin puck

Ugly

POWERLESS PLAY. Too much deference to Thompson and the one timer in general.


This was the most frustrated i have been with the new millionaires this season. Earn your checks.

 

[Ace]

The next time Rob Ray talks to Matt Ellis between periods he better have had to walk into the stands to do it.

 

[CaliSabresfan24]

Just get the PP figured out and play the same style they played tonight, they'll finally look like a playoff team.

The next time Rob Ray talks to Matt Ellis between periods he better have had to walk into the stands to do it.

I think I'd rather see Rayzor try to run the PP at this point...

 

[Sabre the Win]

Also who's the guy who picks up after Cozens shitting all over the ice?

Give that guy a raise. It's a real messy job he has.

 

[Yatzhee]

I hope everyone has made peace with the fact this team isn't going to the playoffs this season, most likely next season as well. There is just to much to fix here, to many problems, and it starts with the owners refusal to hire experienced management and coaching staff.

Expect nothing to change, because it's not going to change. You've all heard the rumors about Pegulas reputation of being quick triggered to fire people. Well, were most definitely stuck with Adams, Granato and their respective staffs.

So, expect a lot more of this if you haven't come to the realization yet. Go Sabres! I guess.......
