GDT: Sabres @ Pittsburgh 7 PM TV: TNT, truTV, Max Radio:WGR550

[K8fool]

We worked ,should be up 4 to 1 but I don’t understand the whining.

Only criticism , we cannot relax against Pitt until we are up 4 or 5 goals. Why would you want to.

We are getting complacent after goals. Most aren’t though. Pour it on check and dominate puck battles and we might be alright , always tough here. Until 60 min is up.

Go Buffalo

These segments where the TNT crew grab sticks and stand around the net is sooooo cringe.

Who's looked good / bad?

Jordan Muh Fuggin Greenway

 

[Ace]

This national broadcast goes to every commercial break showing Pitt scoring and celebrating in a game they are down 3-1 and the entire break was spent talking about the Penguins in the first person as if this crew was on the team.

 

[Matt Ress]

I changed feeds because I thought it was the Pitt feed. Hmm

 

[Push Dr Tracksuit]

3-1 after 1 and they head to break on the rust goal, national broadcast bs

Are goalie gloves really that huge these days? I guess when you see one while the goalie is wearing the rest of the gear it doesn't stand out.

But... damn that glove was big. (thats what she said?)

It wasn't so bad. Well, when Henrik was talking anyways. Bizz is just bleh.

 

[Doug Prishpreed]

All three of them made a perfect play on #3, it was a beaut.

not a bizz fan but hes at least got the personality to carry a segment, hank I like as the straight man, but the host didnt get the memo that hes supposed to be charismatic

yep. something like 18" from tip to wrist blocker.

and i swear some of them cheat it to 20+"

Who's looked good / bad?

Benson when in has looked good. Kulich too. Greenway has been their best forward for a few games in a row. Power's been making things happen with puck moving and hasn't been overwhelmed physically. McLeod and Krebs (filling in for Benson/Peterka on the top line) have had some good moments too.

Bad? We've been dumping on Tuch still but he's putting up points. Cozens is one of the league leaders in shots but nothing has dropped. Quinn was kinda AWOL but has been more impactful.

 

[Push Dr Tracksuit]

swap the host of this show with someone who has some sarcasm, or you gotta swap out hank and i like hank

Crosby Crosby Crosby ooo that crosby crosby love me some crosby crosby

meanwhile 3-1 buffalo

 

[Ace]

They just fawned over the one Pitt highlight and then hyped the late game.

I’m not convinced they know who Pitt is playing or the score of that game

 

[Chainshot]

Surprised they are close on faceoffs since usually the Penguins destroy them there. They have gotten a lot better there.

Like Benson but he has been invisible

It's been that way with national broadcasts for years though. This isn't new. And not for nothing, Buffalo is supposed to be the part of the Washington Generals.

They're treating it like a Globetrotters game where Pitt is the only team to be talked about and taken seriously

Hahaha I just said the same thing

 

[Chainshot]

Tonight, yes. Just talking in the time Gab was off generally.

then you should talk about them now knowing pitt is supposed to make the comeback

but you sound like a bunch of assholes talking about what a great leader crosby is when the sabres scored 10 secs later

 

[Chainshot]

I will double down on my cliche game - next goal is even bigger.

 

[Ace]

Even the one guy in the broadcast who just tried to say we had to get some credit dismissed a couple goals as lucky. I guess Tage didn’t do any work behind the net to win that puck and Greenway didn’t have a nice shot and god knows that whole breakout by Tuch and resulting 2 on 1 was no skill whatsoever.

The US TV broadcasts are nothing if not predictable with their narratives.
