GBU The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly - Grumpy Old Men Key Andy's 43rd Shutout! - Win 6-0 over LA

My two takeaways are

1. Clague getting ice time over Bryson and Fitz is something to keep an eye on in the near future

2. This third period is what Sabres games can look like if refs call penalties instead of try to even it up
 
G:
Sabres for the last 28 minutes
Anderson for 60 minutes
Dahlin for 60 minutes
B:
Sabres for the first 32 minutes
Bryson for 60 minutes
U:
How is Detroit 4 games over .500
 
Also I thought it was funny it took Dahlin until the 5th goal to get on the scoresheet. He looked like the best player on the ice, and maybe the second best player on anyone’s ice tonight. There’s that pesky McDavid guy holding him down.
 
Good:
Good defensive zone coverage over the the first 40 minutes despite having cement feet.
Thompson and Cozens having 3-point nights yet again.
The Fun Line providing a spark in the 3rd using their speed.
Girgensons doing likewise with a strong forecheck all night
Anderson giving the team confidence with every save and overall calm demeanor

Bad:
Mitts skating and d-zone giveaways. He looks like he's lugging a piano on his back.
The Kings throwing in the towel after the second goal.

Ugly:
Knowing where this team would be if Anderson had not elected to come back for one more year.
 
Another good, not easy to find someone to pull out of the lineup when Skinner's suspension is done based on tonight's game.
