EmotionallyUnstable Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 Too little, too late. Can't recover from the poor defensive breakdowns resulting in lucky, self inflicted goals. Maybe they can steal some points tmrw. I won't be watching, so that should help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should do that more often Is that because the power play gets split up and they have to set up twice? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillsFan4 Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 2 big points in the standings slipped away tonight. They could have gained a little ground in the playoff race with Montreal losing last night. Now they face Tampa tomorrow..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K-9 Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 Pretenders. Just not enough talent to make up for three fluke goals against. Playoffs next year. Maybe. I hope JBots has Quenneville’s number. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They never feel like they have any continuity or momentum to them. The defense is completely fresh. And the center ice faceoff always feels weird to me.

I always thought about the momentum breaking of it........I didn't even think about the defense and the faceoff, but now I will like them even less when I think about that!

Big dude in blue throwback style hoodie with zubaz on and a blonde half his size in a navy sabres hoodie. . Sorry, you’ll have to be way more specific than that to stand out in that crowd.

I was the only one wearing zubaz in that place. "Are those pajamas? I really like them" walking in w ticket taker " Oh, I don't need to see your ticket. I remember the pants" while returning to my seat "Those pants, where did you get them. They look comfortable and thin" says employee who starts feelings them. "Those are awesome." "Nice pants" she didn't follow up with wanna *****, tho. Seriously, it was funny. @shradereasily found me because of the pants. And then critiqued me for leaving my girlfriend in tbe dust going down the stairs. I just like stairs. Good footwork drill. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnC Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 Three fluke goals for Carolina. That's hockey! We just don't have enough collective scoring within the lines to compensate for bad luck. I don't see that situation changing this season. That's the reality. The playoff chase is going down to the wire. This loss was a crusher because of the failure to take advantage of a less or equally talented team and cushion us when we face the challenges of going against the big boys. We need to keep the Eichel-Skinner-Reinhart line in tact. The big question is whether Plenzmd can handle the vicissitudes of a season and season-long playoff chase? He is usually almost normal but when stressed with hockey disappointments he becomes insanely frantic. Chill pills when used judiciously can be effective!

Here’s the thing, Ulmark needs to be the number one. End of story! It is plain and simple the Sabres win when he’s in goal, they lose when Hutton plays. By the way, the bar a block from the arena was Buffalo south after the game last night. Tons of fun, I had a great seat where I could stand the whole game.,In the bar afterwards till about 1 AM was just Kickin 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

K-9 Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 I read somewhere that since the 10 game win streak, the Sabres have played at a low 70 point clip. That just plain sucks and isn’t good enough. Keep that up and nothing is going down to the wire. We will be joining Philly as the only team in history to miss the playoffs after having a 10 game win streak. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hutton consistently gives up those fluke goals because he loses the puck when it’s behind the net. At this point, I don’t think that’s going to change with him. You better believe that the other teams are well aware of it. I understand that they want to slowly build Ullmark up, but we’ve reached the point of needing him to take his next step. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's just that the team seems to score more when Ullmark is playing. Maybe Hutton is jinxed with those fluky goals? Both seem to play equally well. The goaltending this year has been the most consistent part of the Sabre games. I'm glad that you had a good time in Carolina. At least this year there is some meaning and more entertainment in the games. By the way did you buy Boyz62 a beer or two? Were his pants so funky that you didn't want people to think that you were associating with him and his odd fashion habits? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

( prolly not tonight). Hutton starts, they most likely lose. I dont care why, I don’t care how, I only care bout the W. My coach in college was a huge fan of “ ya ride a fast horse till it dies”. After tonight, play Ullmark every friggen game till he loses one. Edited January 12, 2019 by plenzmd1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Idk if they were fluke goals as much as they were self inflicted. There were some pretty poor defensive plays that gave them scoring opportunities capped off by unlucky bounces. Not all, but some. Just seems like they should not have lost that game. 1 minute ago, BillsFan4 said: Really?! 26 seconds. Not a good start. I hope its it’s not one of those games.... How'd it happen?
