GDT: #03 – Sabres at Canes – Thu Jan 24 – 7:00PM ET – TV: MSG-B – Radio: WGR-AM

[Presten]

PP looked a lot more sharp, but we need more pucks on net and less fancy passing...

No need to force the pass trough the slot, shoot and try to get to the rebounds.

 

[rsg87]

Grigs looks tentative like his thinking too much about trying not to make a mistake. Lindy needs to tell just to relax and play his game. He really just looks nervous about making a defensive mistake.

 

[Timbo Slice]

Do I hear a TAKE THAT BOWMAN coming?

I can just hear it now

 

[Royisgone]

Good to see Grigs on PP.

Switched to Carolina broadcast around the 5 minute mark.

Sylvester and Rayzor do not sound like professional grade announcers.

It's like you are listening to 2 guys calling the play in the basement with the sound turned down on the TV.

He does not look ready. That being said I think if they tell him he is staying we will see a different Grigorenko. Right now, no chemistry and no flow to his game. That will change if the coaches give him a chance.

your crazy, sabres broadcast is better then opponent broadcast even if it was two kids in a basement.

 

[CrankyJay]

I feel bad for Gerbe...ref made him look...small.

Like two guys in a basement? You give them too much credit.

I thought that was pretty unprofessional on the ref's part. You don't show up a player like that.

 

[heartsabres*]

why?

because its my team, the sabres. it is where the focus is from the broadcast. I also like Ray´s honesty. He is not diplomatic about his comments.

 

[joshjull]

I sort of feel bad for Ray. He's essentially a rookie in his current role and is starting the year with very weak announcer. He will learn a ton and improve quite a bit when Rick gets back.

 

[The Washer]

I actually think he looks fine. Great along the boards, solid on the puck. So yea he overpassed, half the team overpasses. He has also made 2 defensive breakups in our zone, that I have seen. No reason yet to send him down that I have seen.

 

[JOHNBOY]

Bad period accross the board, I expect a much better effort in the second...

 

[zenthusiast]

I'm not sure he could do much else

 

[CrankyJay]

Yeah, I was actually embarrassed for Nathan. He wouldn't do that to a player bigger than him.

Is Harry Neale not returning this season?

 

[NotABadPeriod]

Is Harry Neale not returning this season?

I think Neale is joining the intermission panel with Roby.

 

[heartsabres*]

Is Harry Neale not returning this season?

retired....they wouldn´t let him drink in the booth anymore.

 

[joshjull]

Is Harry Neale not returning this season?

He not returning. It was supposed to be RJ and Ray this year.

 

[sba]

5-12 on draws

Man, that needs to get better fast.

Thanks for the heads up, that should be interesting. Hopefully Rick returns soon....
