GDT: #02 – Lightning at Sabres – Sat Oct 10, 1:00PM ET – MSG-B, SN

Interesting! Dislike Reinhart on the 4th (and to an extent McG on 2nd) but otherwise pretty decent.

Now he just has to keep these lines together..

 

[HeyOldMan]

Strange lines set for the start of the game but I'm sure that will change about 7 times before the end of the first period

We need to get out of mindset of Eichel expectations for Reinhart. Going down to the A is fine. The kid will get chewed up in Buffalo if he's always compared to Eichel.

On the fourth means he's not really ready. That's fine. He'll be a top six guy, just not at 19 and how many guys are?

Yep people are way too quick to jump to conclusions.

Hell, it took Ryan Johansen two years to get his feet wet, now look at him.

Looks like a sparse or very late arrive crowd for this one. Not sure what they were thinking with these afternoon games during youth hockey season. The very target of this can't always go due to their own hockey commitments.

Reinhart on the 4th line? Uh, OK. Not sure I like the idea of Kane and McGinn as Eichel's wingers, but we'll see how it goes.

Yeah I don't like McGinn there at all. I'm sure it will be switched almost immediately.

I had a long night last night. It's 10 am here and I'm a little hung over. Just barely put on the Eichel jersey.

 

[gallagt01]

I love the top line. The second line will be an interesting mix.

look at the guy on the other side... Drouin.

How bylsma comes up with line combinations:

If they lose doug allen has to sing every game

Would have sold my seats if it was a later start like 3:00 pm ET. (Although the reason the person couldn't go was due to another reason not the hockey reason you stated.)

Seems Doug Allen couldn't make it either - man he better be there on Monday - they never went three straight games before of him not singing the anthems.

 

[ckg927]

Damn, I'm missing Doug Allen. MISTERRRRRRRRRRR KENNNNNNNNNEDY(Kevin, that is...)is a bit grating, but servicable. So is the one doing the anthems today.

How bylsma comes up with line combinations:

If he coached Edmonton, their top lines would be deadly good.

 

[Ziostilon]

You guys always sing the Canadian anthem before games even if you're not playing a Canadian team?

 

[OneBuffalo]

Call me an *******, but her voice made my hangover worse.

 

[sabresfan129103]

She did a great job. Way better than the guy on Thursday.

 

[couture23]

Risto has some nice salad now..

 

[sabresfan129103]

You guys always sing the Canadian anthem before games even if you're not playing a Canadian team?

Yes.

 

[couture23]

You guys always sing the Canadian anthem before games even if you're not playing a Canadian team?

Yes all the time because of the proximity to Canada.

 

[ForsakenSabre]

You guys always sing the Canadian anthem before games even if you're not playing a Canadian team?

Yes Always

Being a Bandits STH, I will admit that Kennedy's a bit grating, but he's far from the worst anthem singer I've heard.

 

[sabresfan129103]

Great start! keep it up!

 

[gallagt01]

Good start. Much better than the other night.
