GDT: Game 61: Buffalo Sabres at Los Angeles Kings | Saturday, Feb 27 2016 - 8:00PM PT

[Ollie Weeks]

Flamboyant feet from Eichel.

 

[Ziggy Stardust]

On second glance, masterful dive by Eichel.

 

[scryan]

hooking? wah

closer then tripping... Kinda just ended up with a stick to the thigh, but to Foxys point... Just as much a player trying to skate through occupied ice.

 

[Little Psycho]

Lmao of course it was Lewis

 

[onlyalad]

good teams beat bad refs

 

[Omni Owl]

Would've been nice to pot that one.

 

[HookKing]

I love offensive zone penalties.

Especially when they are not even penalties.

 

[TheSentinel]

That was a Blast from ol' stonehands

 

[King'sPawn]

I get that refs make mistakes. I don't expect perfection.

But you have to be completely sure a penalty was actually committed before calling it. The back referee saw the fall, and just assumed King hooked him.

 

[Mattias]

Not able to watch the game, but how's the missile (scud) doing?

Same as the Brown no-goal; action ref lets it go, back ref calls the visual. Both horse ****. Disappointing reffing tonight yet again.

Generational dive by Eichel, what a ****ing baby. Sabres don't want to fight through their checks and are getting rewarded for being soft as a baby's butt.

Ristolainen must be upset there's no one Weal's size to pick on tonight.

 

[onlyalad]

Scuds on track for 15 minutes
but Doughty still on track for 30

 

[Raccoon Jesus]

I'm happy to be wrong about Scuderi so far BUT our defense is slow as molasses again with Scuderi, McNabb, Schenn out there.

Looking solid.

 

[Omni Owl]

Way better than I expected him to be, solid stick work, doesn't look too slow, and has an assist. Granted its one game, but if he can keep it up he's a welcomed addition.

 

[Mattias]

Nice to hear about Scud.
Is a d-man is the doghouse?

 

[Ollie Weeks]

Nope, times spread pretty evenly for the bottom 4 guys.

Slow they may be, but if the breakouts stay crisp the threat is mitigated.

 

[Scottkmlps]

I'm happy to be wrong about Scuderi so far BUT our defense is slow as molasses again with Scuderi, McNabb, Schenn out there.

So, like 2012 with Scuderi, Greene & Mitchell?

 

[onlyalad]

Muzzin and Doughty with 18 minutes
Everyone else with 10-12 minutes
so no one is benched more than anyone else

 

[kingsholygrail]

Just win the 3rd.

That elite stick apparently never left?

I think he looks really slow, but he's reading well enough to be where he needs to be before the play arrives, those two things were always his forte. If he still has them, then wow.

 

[HookKing]

So, like 2012 with Scuderi, Greene & Mitchell?

Not slow at all.

 

[Raccoon Jesus]

So, like 2012 with Scuderi, Greene & Mitchell?

That was the reference, yep.

Just funny that we got away from it and came right back is all. And don't forget Greene is skating too.

That depth will be a very good problem to have, don't get me wrong, just thought it was funny that we started the season with 6 guys who could really move the puck and only one really slow one in McNabb and have morphed back into the same mold as 2012-2015 minus some righties

 

[Scottkmlps]

Not slow at all.

Not fast either.

 

[scryan]

Just win the 3rd.

would love for them to win the 3rd... but realistically I'll be fine if they just tie it
