GDT: Sabres vs Flames 1 PM ET TV:MSG Radio:WGR550 - Afternoon Delight?

[Sabresbyswords104]

Now they need to step it up One notch, so they climb above that .500 and keep getting more W and get that wildcard with some marginals . Not accepting many losses in a row just because we got to .500

 

[ValJamesDuex]

Stopped watching for the dub. Youre all welcome.

No such thing as superstitions.

 

[Matt Ress]

Tuch had like 5 really good chances to win that

 

[ValJamesDuex]

Scarier than necessary, but needed the 2 points, and got em

Thought Calgary would drag there asses that 3rd period, but Sabres ended up doing so. Game management did not help.

 

[Chainshot]

Maybe they're turning the corner. This seems like a game they lose in other seasons.

 

[Fjordy]

Honestly speaking, there was a lack of a legit top 6 F for such a game. I thought Benson and Cozens looked good.

I had that thought, but I dared not put it into existence.

 

[Mattilaus]

How many times have we said it? Good teams find ways to win when they don't play their best.

 

[TnaBuffalo]

Three way tie for 7th

Tied for 4th

Im only a little stitious :p

Not mention winning three in a row after losing three in a row after winning three in a row. It really feels different this time.

 

[Chainshot]

Very impressed that they adapted to the faceoff guys late in the game and wound up winning nearly 60% on the day. Gilbert's 3 penalties may have been why he only had 3 shifts in the third, none in the last 9 minutes.

 

[ValJamesDuex]

Back to .500 yoyo we are

 

[Fearnot]

JJP has been the highlight of the season for me, excited to see what kinda player he develops into when he's already this good.

 

[Uberpecker]

Flames decided to play the game in the mud and we didn't adapt great.

I'm assuming I'm gonna agree with you anyway, but out of curiosity, is that an idiomatic expression or/like a figure of speech? I'm not a native English speaker.

 

[SharkInABoloTie]

f***, I missed this one. Thought it was tonight. How did they look?

 

[HaNotsri]

Yeah no idea why he was picked for the shootout. Good game by Tuch but no killer instinct. Supreme victory anyway!

 

[Chainshot]

I was a little concerned about Byram late in the game but he came on for Clifton to be part of that late PK and did some very good work.

Yep, take Gilbert out now, another dummy. Just put him in when you need his fists occasionally.

 

[Gras]

No such thing as superstitions.

3-1 after today with me on the treadmill, bastards made me do almost 6 miles today going to OT and SO.

 

[Chainshot]

f*** is missed this one. Thought it was tonight. How did they look?

Controlled things early, then wore down as the game progressed. If they'd been on the road, this would've been like an ideal road game.

 

[NotABadPeriod]

Where are we now currently in the standings?

WC2.

Tied on points for ATL3 with TB/Boston, but Tampa has game in hand so they currently are ahead of us. We have more Regulation Wins than Boston so are currently ahead of them.

1 point ahead of NYI (Isles have 1 game in hand) and Pittsburgh (Sabres have 1 game in hand). 2 points ahead of Detroit (Red Wings have 2 games in hand). 3 points ahead of Columbus (Blue Jackets have 3 games in hand) and Ottawa (Senators have 2 games in hand).

He’s really upped his game since we collectively shit all over him last week for costing us Mitts.

I’m glad he reads the board and takes notes.

let's have a winning record to talk about anything beyond 82 either we're however out of first place in division or the league or we're not in first

I think Byram has improved a lot this season. Byram-Dahlin works really well.
