I am sick of the reliance on Sobotka.

I see what you did there

Reinhart and Dahlin looked amazing tonight

Good post Freeeeeedom, Sobotka is indeed ass.

 

[Hasek]

Reinhart, Eichel, Sobotka, Mitts were solid. Everyone else was trash.

 

[Beerz]

Wild fan ...

Sabres put Sobotka out, they don’t care about winning.

 

[Snippit]

Best 3 players were 1. Reinhart 2. Eichel 3. Dahlin

Worst players were Sobotka, Tage, and...one other defenceman maybe Bogo

As a team, good first 10 minutes, awful 2nd period, and good 3rd period.

Far from perfect but better than the last few games for sure.

What?

I think that may have been Sam's best game this year. Dominant. A goal, a primary apple, and nearly had two more primaries.

 

[enthusiast]

You could tell Reino was feeling himself on those late 2-on-1s, I certainly won't bemoan the kid confidence

2 points are 2 points

 

[Dahlin 2 Eichel]

Good job staying committed to get the win. They don’t have to be pretty.

Great was the PP ... need this to catch fire

 

[Jim Carr's Rug]

HAM SAMMY!

 

[GellMann]

I am sick of the reliance on Sobotka.

When guys like him and Marco and often Risto are on the ice, they spend the entire time in their zone. Somehow in our management's eyes a high volume of defensive minutes equates to proficiency in defensive play. When in reality, the best defensive players rarely have to play defense.

Sure, when Vlad is out there, they manage to snuff out some amount of chances - his goal differential is comfortably negative, but maybe not egregious for that role - but the chasing and garbage hockey the team plays every time he's on the ice doesn't just get reset to zero when a better line comes out. That stuff wears the team down all game and makes us worse for it.

Sometimes you need a fugly win to get some momentum and break out of a funk. Here’s hoping....

Was just coming to say the same. He was super impressive tonight. He really needs his own line and seems to have chemistry with Mitts. Just makes me wish our idiot coach tried some of these things earlier in the year.

Love that he played such a great game and drove his own line. They need to keep that trio together.

Not to mention the unwritten assist when he screened the goaltender on Dahlin’s goal

 

[SundherDome]

Oh, so we win and I'm no longer needed to make GBU's....shame on you

 

[OkimLom]

Love that he played such a great game and drove his own line. They need to keep that trio together.

Just a reminder they played together earlier in the year, and believe they played in the first couple games of the 10 game atreak. This was when Mittelstadt was playing his best.

Hopefully nothing's wrong with Ullmark after that last SO attempt.

 

[Buffaloed]

The overmatched Sabres, led by Sam The Reinonhart scratched and clawed their way to an epic victory that will change the course of the season.

Good post Freeeeeedom, Sobotka is indeed ass.

4th most ice time behind Eichel, Skinner and Reinhart who edged him out by 10 seconds or so.Thats all I need to know about Housley
