GDT: Sabres - Capitals; 3/30/2025

[NotABadPeriod]

Damn, have your guys been this up and down all season? Insane out there today. Congrats on the win (grumble grumble!)

No, it's been mostly down. Usually, it's been up in the 1st period, down in the 2nd and way down in the 3rd.

Just all those vitamin D shots being given out for recent illness

Jack Quinn 6 points in 2 games.

He just got an extra $200,000 a year on his next contract.

On the bright side, moving Byram away from Dahlin is gonna save us a milly per.

 

[Uberpecker]

The Department of Goaltending Efficiency would like to have a word with Mr. Thompson.

Which one

 

[Buff15Sabres]

Not a good weekend for goalies in Sabres games. 23 goals allowed on 104 shots

maybe his missed meeting was in the Aaron Rogers dark room ?

But maybe he got some well needed help for other issues it was rumored he was dealing with

Week ago sunday, dinner time we won against Jets today dinner time, sunday we won in DC. Sabres Play best hockey sundays at dinner time against best teams in the league.

We struggle with Saturday brunch.

Reimer wins his 4th in a row.

Maybe not losing him to waivers and allowing him to get regular starts from the outset changes the trajectory of our goaltending over the course of the season?

I guess we'll never know.

Which one

I guess.....both? lol.

 

[DapperCam]

we tried that a few seasons back and missed by a point

but at least the team had an identity.

I think it could work if we had the ability to score consistently in different ways (power play, off the rush, with o-zone possession, etc).

That team from a few seasons ago didn’t have an answer after teams double teamed Tage on the PP, and stacked defenders at the blue line to force a chip and chase.

Buffalo is gonna get a much weaker 1st round pick because of their late season "heroics" and the Penguins will end up with McKenna, won't they ?

That's next year's business.

Ahh ok..did not know that..thanks

 

[Jimmybarndoor2]

Spencer Carbery on the Capitals' performance against the Buffalo Sabres: "We get what we deserve tonight." Said the team tried to emulate Buffalo's style of play rather than sticking to their own identity

Translation: they play stupid. We played stupider

You're not wrong, just early!

 

[Der Jaeger]

Krebs is quietly becoming a decent bottom six forwards

 

[HaNotsri]

I can hear the shitty offseason spinzone already

“Listen, the Jack Quinn we got at the beginning of last year and the end of last year is basically like getting a huge upgrade. We have a lot of confidence going into next year with Jack in our top 6”

Same procedure as last year?
Same procedure as every year.

 

[TheMistyStranger]

Krebs is quietly becoming a decent bottom six forwards

Whoever got in his ear and told him to start shooting seemed to be the catalyst

 

[oldgoalie]

Our son and daughter-in-law got great lower bowl seats for this one. What a goal fest, and they got to see Ovi get one step closer to the record.

Were you there? Because the combined goaltending on both ends might have made your blood boil...

Yeah, another one of Kev's doofus manuevers.

It's annoying that it's at the end of the season but I gotta say it's nice seeing Quinn starting to show his true colors again. He looked completely lost for most of the season

Him coming into form is the fun stuff, him realization his potential what we're doing this for.

I truly hope he gets off to a good start next season because if he doesn't he'll hear about it. (Well... at least social media will be yelling about it.)
