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

How many of the 6 goals were a direct result of a refs call?

Three. The offside goal counting which leads to the call on Buffalo that Rust scores on and then in OT with that call on Thompson.

that was a penalty.. don't blame the refs on this one

It’s amazing how some of you still
dont grasp it’s rarely about whether it’s a penalty or not. But what they do and don’t call throughout the game.

 

[Ehran]

They were out there against 4 future HoF players.

And the refs.

And the NHL.

And the TV producers.

 

[Ace]

Pretty sad the refs have to help so blatantly in a game where we had so many chances die on Cozens’ stick and they got to shoot at UPL the whole game.

 

[ValJamesDuex]

Pittsburgh isn't a good team but they are better then the Sabres. Take that how you will.

Not going to win without a 2nd line

 

[Dietpepsi]

Zucker got his skates kicked out in an identical manner when the goalie was pulled.

and what? quit making excuses.. this team lost the game on their own

 

[Beerz]

that was a penalty.. don't blame the refs on this one

I agree it was. Didn't need to be called. No change of possession as a result.. OT ..

 

[SundherDome]

Greenway and Clifton both let the passes through, especially JG, because I have no idea what he was even defending if not that pass.

I'll let Karlsson take that shot 100/100.

 

[Chainshot]

So UPL gives up 6 goals? Yeah, he’s our 1A.

More like one eh?

 

[JLewyB]

Exactly what TNT paid for.

yup definitely a different narrative to be told if they cared. A truthful one but alas the Sabres have a long hill to climb. They have to beat the other team plus the refs/league most nights

 

[Ace]

How many of the 6 goals were a direct result of a refs call?

4

 

[Deep Blue Metallic]

Dios mio. 1 point just isn't enough from that game.

 

[SabresFan26]

This was absolutely rigged. Mickey Mouse league.

Nothing was rigged. I’m so sorry for us Buffalo fans feeling sorry for ourselves.

Learn how to not lose before you win. Good teams find away and we are not a good team yet. It’s a process. It sucks, the playoff streak sucks, but what really sucks is how bad some of us sound and represent Buffalo sports as winey sports fans and that we are victims.

We can be better and starts with an attitude.

 

[5 Minute Major]

A game we lost to a bad opponent. 5-4, time running out, we have our 2 first pick overall defenseman on the ice…..and can’t keep the puck out of the net.

How can you be a winning team when you can’t do that?

 

[Chainshot]

Jack Quinn, come on sit on down!

What a disappointment so far.

 

[NotABadPeriod]

Problem is we signed UPL long term.

UPL's contract is a non-issue. We've seen teams get out of worse contracts (Campbell, Petersen).

 

[Daz28]

Did he punch that in with his hand?

It wasn't his stick for sure. Maybe he kicked it in even.

 

[Dietpepsi]

same old sabres
same old sabre fans... blame the refs.. not our PP, getting scored on short handed, lazy stars.. unable to score on a backup..etc..etc

 

[Ralonzo]

f*** of NHL and your clown show officials. I knew it was coming but it still pissed me off.

NGL, i'm kinda back to where I was 2018ish. Just don't even care anymore. The NHL killed it out of me. Not gonna bother to figure out when the games are on; if i'm clicking around and stumble on one, maybe i'll watch some. But mostly, it's a product you can't trust. It's like, if there was a gas station that 70% of the time you went for a fill up was contaminated crap and screwed your engine. Waste of money, waste of time, waste of resources. That's the NHL.

 

[Snippit]

It's genuinely concerning how many core guys just look awful for Buffalo right now.

We may be screwed long term.

 

[Ace]

We outscored them by 4 at even strength. In case you were wondering if the refs had any hand in it

 

[Bobby Bottle Service]

This was a point they would not have gotten last season. Not folding after Geno"s 500 is progress

same old sabres

They scored multiple goals on the backup.

I guess the refs were great and had no effect on the game. Not sure what game you watched.

 

[Sabreality]

UPL's contract is a non-issue. We've seen teams get out of worse contracts (Campbell, Petersen).

its been 3 starts and now we're looking to get of the contract, Unreal.
