RPbillsfan Posted September 8, 2018 Share Posted September 8, 2018 Got to see the Devils-Sabres prospect game (Sabres won 6-4) and Rasmus Dahlin scored 2 goals, had one assist, one booming hit and controlled the game when he was on the ice. Bring 60 got to watch Bobby Orr growing up and I swear I see some of the skills Orr had in Dahlin. 6 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm about your age and am shuffling off to Buffalo October 6/7 weekend with my daughter to see a Sabres-Rangers Saturday night game followed by Bills-Titans Sunday game. I've been flying into Buffalo for Bills' games for several years but this will be my first double-header weekend. So, so stoked to see Dahlin! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aceman_16 Posted September 8, 2018 Share Posted September 8, 2018 (edited) Yeah I was there as well. When it was 1-1 after the first period due to a stupid turn over in our end I was frustrated because we were sooo out playing them and were at their end most of the period. Anyhow the kid looked good as well as Nylander. Edited September 8, 2018 by aceman_16 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always loved the Sabres but because I didn't ever play - I never fully understood how to watch the game correctly. I've spent a considerable amount of time learning and it's an incredible sport. I enjoy the games now more than any other time in my sports life. The Sabres are going to be very very good soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Formerly Allan in MD Posted September 8, 2018 Share Posted September 8, 2018 Hope this guy is huge. However, comparing anyone who hasn't yet played an NHL game to Bobby Orr is like saying that some minor leaguer who has great power will be the next Babe Ruth. Bobby Orr was incredible and proved it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Way to jump to ridiculous conclusions. I never jump to a conclusion. I said: "Please, pretty please, don't say... ...Don't say culture or baby mamas..." I just have a strong opinion on that subject when people argue it. Thank you for that not being the reason. And nice cop out "that I don't deserve an answer." Very weak. That response does add doubt you are telling the truth. But so be it. You don't have to get defensive, take things personal because I bring up thorny issues. You'd think you'd want to clear the air rather then leave doubt. I am not sure what to make of your reply. There is nothing to get defensive about. You should just say: "No and explain your argument." My response was not intended to personnally offend you. Many people think hockey culture is different. I tend to disagree, I feel it's the same as other sports. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dahlin's skating and puck sense are insane--he didn't simply skate, he hovered. He's bigger than I expected as well (and has the frame to put on more muscle as he matures).

Sports (all) have the same philandering culture. Hockey is no different then the other sports: https://www.thelocal.se/20050214/965 "In 2005, Tallinder, and fellow Swedish hockey players Kristian Huselius and Andreas Liljawere investigated on suspicion of sexual exploitation. In March 2005, all three players were suspended from the Swedish national team for one year, with Huselius and Tallinder being released by Swedish club Linköping. Lilja was not suspended by Swedish club Mora, but decided to take a break for the remainder of the rest of the season. Initially police had dropped their investigation within two days 11 February 2005 when a 22-year-old woman accused the trio of raping her 9 February, because of a lack of evidence. However, a special prosecutor reopened the case in March, leading to the suspensions. Tallinder and the others were cleared in June of that year." ~Wikipedia: Henrik Tallinder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
