Thanks guys!

Levi hasn't let in a bad goal in 4 games.

A record for a sabres goalie.

 

[CrazyWayne]

Someone please let skinner know to never throw the puck out front like he did with less than ten seconds left ever again

Levi hasn't let in a bad goal in 4 games.

Weird having actual confidence in a goalie being able to stop a point blank shot

 

[brian_griffin]

Loved Dahlin with Carolina playing 6-on-5 showing no respect to Jordan Staal to Levi's right at the goal-line, refusing to shade to him when he had the puck.

 

[littletonhockeycoach]

Thanks guys!

Sure. It's your turn next week...... lol

 

[Dubi Doo]

Skinner with the stick steal late and then Greenway with a couple really smart plays at the end.

Great way to finish off that game.

Now..... we need the rest of today's games to fall our way dammit.

Greenway dishing the puck down without causing an icing really hurt the Canes chances. They spent what felt like the final 30 seconds trying to get into the zone. That's a heads up play in crunch time. Maybe Adams and Granato are onto something with this kid!

 

[markpenske]

Thanks guys!

you owe us. remember that Tuesday

 

[SundherDome]

Its no more inference than what Carolina has been doing all period.

That's why I noted at the end they let it go. I think that is the infuriating piece in all of it. In MOST cases it is a penalty but the fact that the refs let the other teams do the same thing and not call it. This isn't just a Sabres problem, basically any of the top teams like Boston, Tampa, Las Vegas, Toronto, Edmonton get a lot of slack.

Tell ya..... when you play for a coach that has confidence in you, your game improves.

Evanson vs Granato. I'll take Donnie.

 

[Paxon]

Thanks guys!

Anything for Lindy

I know he was acquired for his defense, Jam, size, etc. But he's also scored at a 25-goal pace since BUF picked him up.

Very likable guy, too.

Thanks guys!

Return the favor Tuesday.

What a win. And against these jerks no less. Beautiful.

 

[misterchainsaw]

The constant comments on the refereeing on here is really hard to read at times. Is NHL refeering great? Absolutely not - they absolutely have consistency issues and there are issues with refs being tighter with teams who've had more PP's than the other thus far during a given game (ie game management).

But the idea that there's some kind of conspiracy against Buffalo is ludicrous. Buffalo's had 40 more PP attempts than SH attempts this season. They spend on average a minute more per game on the power play than their opponent. People see every little nit picky infraction that could be called against the opposition while ignoring similar infractions their team commits.

Seriously if you want to see horrendous officiating, watch more Atlantic Hockey games (Niagara, Canisius, RIT). Now that is the bottom of the barrel officiating.

This isn't just a Sabres problem, basically any of the top teams like Boston, Tampa, Las Vegas, Toronto, Edmonton get a lot of slack.

Boston's been short-handed the 3rd most times in the NHL. They just kill penalties significantly better than anyone else in the league (87.1% vs 2nd place CAR at 83.9%) so it doesn't hurt them.

@Chainshot going to start watching golf after this season

Why?

 

[Nikolajs Sillers]

Could Levi be a first goalie to be ready at age 21? Remains to be seen. Great game.

 

[ValJamesDuex]

Why?

in reference to game management pen at time of post

Tom Barasso went to the NHL / Sabres as an 18yo straight out of high school.
Patrick Roy was 20 yo when he won the starters job out of camp with the Habs.

Re:Levi

A 12 year drought is on the line, and the kid's getting the crease over 6K and Comrie.

He's making this team out of camp next year barring injury.

They just need to find him a proper running mate.

Thanks guys!

Your place Tuesday April 11
