GDT: Sabres vs Bruins: It Ends Tonight

[toddkaz]

Ruff had a zero chance of winning. The video clearly showed Samuelson with the push.

its not zero. The judge could have ruled the Boston player swept his leg out. They never showed the overhead.

 

[Zman5778]

To me it looked like the bruins player put his leg out to catch Reimer. Push or no push.

Of course he put his leg out. But Sammy pushed him, and there's a very small chance that the refs ignore that.

 

[Der Jaeger]

If the review judge is sympathetic and the Boston player swept the leg maybe it gets overturned.

So you want Ruff to bet on the judge in Toronto’s sympathy over actual video facts?

 

[toddkaz]

To me it looked like the bruins player put his leg out to catch Reimer. Push or no push.

Exactly, you have a better chance challenging than scoring a goal.

So you want Ruff to bet on the judge in Toronto’s sympathy over actual video facts?

And you want to bet on this team scoring and you lost. we 100% lost the game by not challenging.

 

[littletonhockeycoach]

Ruff didn’t challenge because Samuelson pushed him. So he would’ve lost and the Sabres would’ve had to try to score off the PK.

Who's stick barely touched Murray's goal stick last night and was ruled enough to be goalie interference?

At least make the refs and toronto take a look at it.

Going for the time out instead was a dumb decision.

I'm done with Lindy Ruff and Sean Appert as well as Adams. Get rid of all of them.

 

[Der Jaeger]

its not zero. The judge could have ruled the Boston player swept his leg out. They never showed the overhead.

Yes they did, on MSG

 

[GrierIsGod123]

I think I'm done with Tage Thompson too ... he is f***ing terrible in so many areas of the ice. Just a big dumb f***.

 

[stokes84]

Maybe the bigger issue is having a player that has contributed nothing all season take a dumb penalty with 3 minutes left in a tie game? I mean, that’s what losing hockey teams do.

I disagree. Ruff was losing that challenge based on the overhead video.

 

[toddkaz]

Yes they did, on MSG

We lost the game 100% by not challenging so clearly it was the wrong call by Ruff.

 

[5 Minute Major]

One outcome is worth 1.5 points, the other 0. If you think it's 50-50 you should make the challenge.

Why would you think it was 50/50?

In my eyes it was a 0% chance that goal was overturned.

 

[HaNotsri]

I think I'm done with Tage Thompson too ... he is f***ing terrible in so many areas of the ice. Just a big dumb f***.

I think he's ok on a secondary scoring line.

 

[Der Jaeger]

There was 0 chance Ruff wins the challenge. There was a chance they could’ve scored with the empty net.

It wasn’t the wrong call.

 

[Zman5778]

Tage is a 2C on a good/Cup-winning team.

 

[Zach716]

Man

 

[Der Jaeger]

As an aside, where’s Rob Ray?

 

[Dirty Dog]

Tage is a 2C on a good/Cup-winning team.

He’s a clear top line player with whatever label you want to give him, 1C, 2C, whatever. You just need to balance him out with other players

 

[Ness]

As an aside, where’s Rob Ray?

Hope he’s in good health. Outside of that, he might’ve just said “f*** this sh**” and bailed

 

[toddkaz]

There was 0 chance Ruff wins the challenge. There was a chance they could’ve scored with the empty net.

It wasn’t the wrong call.

Ok prove it. Its ridiculous that you are saying 0% chance about it. .

Prove it please. zero probability is not possible.

Jeremy Jacob's:

You want me to pay a billion dollars for that?

 

[slip]

Most of my pregame optimism was predicated on Dahlin being back in the lineup. So much for that.

 

[CaliSabresfan24]

Someone needs to get the axe...

If it's Lindy, so be it. Even though Adams is more worthy but at this point, it doesn't matter anymore

 

[5 Minute Major]

Sabres winless streak by the numbers…..

 

[DapperCam]

To me it looked like the bruins player put his leg out to catch Reimer. Push or no push.

I think it was to catch his balance, but he 100% kicks his leg out and that is the body part that makes contact.

Still, I think there is no way they would have overturned.

 

[HaNotsri]

Tage is a 2C on a good/Cup-winning team.

Adams has just created a monster of a puzzle where not a single piece is in the right place except for Dahlin.

I think our defensemen did well today considering our lack of centers. Playing d behind dumb or non-existent centremen is a nightmare. Stuff like defending the blueline more aggressively becomes hard when you don't even trust forwards to backcheck.
