K-9 Posted November 12, 2017 Share Posted November 12, 2017 Definitely something wrong with Eichel. He is routinely losing puck battles his strength used to to let him win. And his speed is a half step slower as well. Doesn't bode well moving forward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately, we don't have the level of talent that Toronto does that can step up in his absence.

njbuff Posted November 13, 2017 Share Posted November 13, 2017 The Devils had a wild first two periods in Chicago on Sunday night as both teams combined to score 11 goals. And to the delight of many hockey fans across NA, the Devils played a little NZT and the Devils blanked the 3 time Cup Champs in the third period. Man, old habits die hard. And Kane's name is being thrown around a lot for all three local teams down here. The scuttlebutt is the Sabres want established young NHLer's and NOT prospects. The Sabres should hold out for a massive return on Kane. From the Devils end, Santini is one of the names the Sabres want, but the Devils want no part of dealing him, so the Devils will be a tough trade partner. This Kane thing for the Sabres is fascinating. I think you guys should keep him though. i wonder what the market could be for ROR? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

plenzmd1 Posted November 14, 2017 Share Posted November 14, 2017 this game will be on the DVR and will watch after the Duke-Michigan St game. Freaking 11/15, and I have given up on watching them.Listened to the game Friday night on the drive up to Buffalo, I swear to Christ I could hear every sound uttered by every player through the radio it was so quiet in that place.

K-9 Posted November 14, 2017 Share Posted November 14, 2017 It was only a matter of time before Reinhart was moved back to wing and I'm glad to see it's on a line where he's had success. He's just not an NHL center. Moulson in the lineup at all is an abomination, let alone on the third line. Feel sorry for Girgs. Liking Falk's game lately. Pittsburgh has become our house of horrors and I look for Crosby to bust out of his slump in a big way tonight, especially when matched against the Eichel line.

OKay, might play a little sumpin sumpin just to make it interesting tonight. I can only bet good bets for the Sabres(cant bet on Penquins to win for instance) These are the props available to me on Bovada right now, anybody like 1 of these in aprticular? Sabres Money line +205 (maybe) Sabres Total Goals over 2 1/2 +120 (hate this one, must be a reason they dont want money on it) Total Under 4 1/2 goals +230 (kinda like this one) Total Over 7 1/2 + 315 ( interesting) Total Goals Even +190 ( never even heard of this bet before, kinda like it!) Sabres Score first +145( like that) Kane scores more than Kessel + 150 Okposo Scores a goal +250(hmm) Jack scores 2 or more goals +900(wowser) Lehner shutout +1000 Think I might go with total goals even and Sabres score first Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he does well, though, I can see them moving him and not Kane eventually. I don't feel sorry for Girgensens. Not in the least. He is at best a fourth line center.

26CornerBlitz Posted November 15, 2017 Author Share Posted November 15, 2017 (edited) 11-15: PHIL HOUSLEY ON WGR (8:59) #Sabres head coach Phil Housley joins Jeremy White next on WGR! Tune in: Housley - we knew the Penguins were going got push down by a goal in the third period. We needed to buckle down. Thought we were making good decisions with the puck, but we missed a couple of assignments #Sabres Housley - when it's a one-goal lead, you have to take what the game gives you. We have to play well without the puck and make good decisions. Need to force them to go 200-feet. It's the missed assignments, the things we miss that come back to us #Sabres Housley - I thought Reinhart was trending in a good direction before moving up to the Eichel line. Now he's getting more scoring chances, more looks on Jack's line. Glad to see he's finding his scoring touch again #Sabres Housley - I think the guys have been gutting it out on the blue line with the guys we have out due to injury. We're getting close, feel guys are close to turning the corner #Sabres Housley - we are trying to build something here and it is a process... We're learning as we move forward. We have to continue to learn and grow as a team, and get better every day #Sabres Housley - Jason Botterill and I talk every day. He supports the decisions that our coaching staff makes, he's a tremendous communicator. #Sabres Edited November 15, 2017 by 26CornerBlitz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shrader Posted November 15, 2017 Share Posted November 15, 2017 This is a long shot, but I'll throw it out there. I'm pretty sure I originally learned it here, but for the past two years I've had my directv DVR setup to automatically record all Sabre games, always our broadcast if available. In recent weeks, it has stopped working. Any idea how to fix this (not that I'm missing much)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
njbuff Posted November 15, 2017 Share Posted November 15, 2017 I know a lot of teams have problems holding leads in the NHL this year, but that one hurts for you guys yesterday. Got a point out of it, but it provides no solace in the fact you had the champs beat and gave it away. But the larger point is, I have never seen so many leads blown in so many games this early in a hockey season. Not just a Sabres problem yesterday, but a problem for just about every team. No leads seem to be safe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Made no money sadly! But it was fun having a smidge on the game without worrying about the Sabre win. Best one i really wanted to take was team who scored first would lose, that was +250.
