GDT: Sabres vs Bruins: It Ends Tonight

[MagnumForce2]

Regardless of the no challenge or should have challenged… we only had 3 shots in the 3rd period and now have lost 13 in a row. Plus I think we are now tied for last place in the NHL.

Sammy's contact --

Toronto has obviously removed critical frames and speed the video up after they make contact. Notice how the hot dog disappears from that guys hand right after the incident?
We need the zapruder of this one.

 

[Beerz]

You are right. I shouldn't be arguing with someone who thinks they can predict an outcome with absolute certainty that hasn't been decided.

Its absurd.

It is absurd. It was a totally natural fall with a natural reaction by the Bruin player with his leg swing.

Just bad luck.

 

[MagnumForce2]

I guess sitting Jack Quinn was the right move.

 

[littletonhockeycoach]

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.

Because there is no consistency between refs in what constitutes goaltender interference. It's a judgment call. The only possible way to achieve consistency is to take it out of the hands of the on ice referee.

Even then, I have my doubts.

But the more it gets challenged, the better the chance to get closer to an accepted standard.

And eliminate the penalty if you lose the challenge. THAT's obviously why Ruff didn't challenge tonights non call.

Maybe we need to try other players besides Quinn, Joker and NAK

 

[littletonhockeycoach]

Feel like if Ruff had challenged it, and the expected outcome (call stands, minor penalty assessed) happens, some of the same folks advocating for challenging it would instead be talking about what a stupid decision it was and how it cost them a chance to tie it up.

Please refrain from telling others what you think my response would be. I'll speak for myself. Thank you.

I was just kidding about Quinn… he seems to be Ruff’s healthy scratch of choice.

 

[start winnin]

Can we start another tank thread like the old days?

I mean he has been crap but I would like to see others held accountable

There is no prize at the end of this tank. A lhd we can rush into the league...

 

[MagnumForce2]

Agreed

How much is first overall worth in a trade? At this point we need roster players.

No idea. Problem is that no teams trade the players we need. Only hope is Vancouver and the EP saga.

Pain

When Pegula sells the team and someone that knows how to run a hockey organization take over.

Actually GI is the one thing that has consistently been called all year.

If the player goes into the blue on their own and contact is made with the goalie in any fashion whether by themselves or being pushed into the goalie by the other team, it’s coming back.

 

[CaliSabresfan24]

The same guy owning both teams is diabolical...

Krebs should sit permanently. All he does is lose puck battles, make bad passes and do nothing in the scoring department

Jack of all, master of none.

Krebs is a decent 4th line center. I would like to see some of our other forwards play with his energy, grit and drive.

Jack of all, master of none.

Yes

 

[Deep Blue Metallic]

Tough loss. Dead last in the league now.

I keep thinking "they're better than this", but they keep losing.

 

[MagnumForce2]

We went from a playoff slot to lottery favorite in 26 days.

Or not very decent, who knows.

This franchise is a ghost. It needs to end. With that said, I don;t put any of this shit on Krebs. Can we juxtapose his linemates to offer more context. I thought this kid was going to be a Briere 2.0 and I was wrong, but he's not the issue here.
