GDT: #9 – Sabres at Sharks – Sat Oct 25, 4:00PM ET – MSG-B, Bell TV – WGR

[RobertR]

Girgs FO% in last 3 games must be something around 20%.. Needs to improve on those.

 

[haseoke39]

Is it possible Nolan preaches an offensive "system" of dump, chase, drive net and hope?

You forgot "care" and "believe"

 

[mikemcburn]

Passing looks so much better tonight..

Not seein' that. 4 glaring give aways btwn Hodgson and Moulson alone - who came into this game with 4 give aways btwn them.

I'm seeing dump, chase, swing pucks around behind the o-zone net, then back check to recover possession, rinse and repeat.

D is generally moving things up and out, maybe that's what you mean? But the forwards? Not the top two lines anyway.

 

[mikemcburn]

You forgot "care" and "believe"

oops, sorry

We try to convert on PP and hit our own man in the back. Pretty much description of Sabres success this season.

 

[ZeroPT*]

We need to pressure Stalock more. He loves to play the puck and if our forwards pressure him with speed it could create space

 

[sba]

Mirco Mueller, the 18th pick in the 2013 Draft has played 5:30 already this afternoon.

And he gives up rebounds

 

[couture23]

Sam had a nice period so obviously he'll get 8 minutes this entire game

 

[couture23]

Risto with 6:03 in the 1st!!! Love to see that

Gif of the hit on Gionta ...


Looks exactly like the Kaleta hit on Richards.

The Sharks announcers, who I have to listen to at this point, are painful. They called that a clean hit. They also talked about the Sabres 2 first round picks in the next draft...

 

[HogtownSabresfan]

It's even worse. The 'he doesn't know X and O's' is brought up often, but it's to the point where I honestly question if Nolan knows a thing about hockey beyond GRR WORK HARD. How long can the team listen to Nolan and think he's competent.

He isn't. He's a fool.Kept Latvia close against Canada playing in a shell and he's a genius.

He's here for year, part of Murray Tank plan.

WILD CARD. Pegula. unpredictable. He could tire of losing very quickly. He's a billionaire and used to winning at everything.

Kings announcers also said the Sabres had 2 first round picks. They must share their mis-information

I hope. I hope. It's not the losing, it's the not standing a chance of not losing.

Gets fans to turn backs on players who are stuck in a position of not having a chance to live up to expectations. And when fans start actively hating players...

Hamilton doesn't let old hatred go...

Kristi Yamaguchi and Curtis Brown on the Sharks broadcast. Hope he's a better broadcaster than player.

 

[mikemcburn]

That so-called 1st pp unit shift was another example of how the entire "top six" seems to be instructed not to do anything other than dump, chase, hope... Sheesh. ALL of those guys used to be able to make plays.

 

[Ness]

Buffalo's PP is comical.

Hard to believe that professional journalists get paid to be internet trolls. Don't have anything but fond memories of CB - they're making Buffalo look bad.

Carolina's tank depresses me

Awesome stick check by Myers on Wingels

They'll start winning games when they're healthy.

 

[mikemcburn]

They'll start winning games when they're healthy.

So will the Sabres. Nearly each one of whom, at present, clearly suffers from one type of mental health issue or another.

 

[gallagt01]

Paul Hamilton is a slob. What an unnecessary shot at Curtis Brown on Twitter.

 

[Ness]

My god this game is a snoozer
