Game Thread: Kissing Cousins: Canucks visit the Sabres. I wish they did a 70s night

Maybe this is one step closer to getting DR fired......I hope.

After this game, Miller is probably going to pull a Denis Lemieux.

 

[BOSSMANPC]

Fans booooo them off the ice as they should. Pegula better fire this asshole GM soon or that place will be empty.


Again, Congrats Vancouver fans for the win.

Miller declined talking to the media tonight after the game.

 

[puckhead]

just catching up.
- what an amazing start. effort + pressure + active powerplay = shots 8-0, 2 minutes in
- Sabres lucky to be within a goal after the first. Miller has been A
- Ehrhoff doesn't mind laying lumber against his old mates. I think he misses them
- 2nd shorthanded goal by Richardson. I had said earlier he reminds me of a Schaefer. still fits
- Santorelli is losing his Cy Young bid tonight. that's not a bad thing
- Vanek's 'goal'. holy shit that's bad puck luck.

solid effort. have to assume buffalo's not always that flat.

Dimitri Filipovic ‏@DimFilipovic 4m The #Canucks had 10 shot attempts in the 1st 1:49 of the game, and held a 15-1 advantage after ~210 seconds of game time had passed. Wow.

 

[puckhead]

oh yeah, congrats to Stanton for #1.
top shelf on Ryan Miller, not a bad story for the grandkids.

Yet they finished the game with only 34 total shots.


Pffft, what a bunch of slackers.

I didn't see the game, just listened to it, but that seems legit to me for some reason.

No, they're usually worse. Well, excluding the first 4 minutes of last night's game. They couldn't be much worse than that.

That's the Tortorella way for ya, sit on a lead and don't press to make it bigger. Watched it for 4 years here in NY lol

 

[mooger_35]

I will say this... he's playing the hell out of the Sedins. They are now out there in every situation. As they should be.

 

[mattola]

each year the sabres play with this group I think oh they under achieved last year. they will be good. decent talent on that team.

um wow that was flat. but only seeing a couple periods of one game of them I cant say its normal but 1-7-1 wow. what a terrible start and only 11 goals for.

Only 10 real goals actually. The 11th is the bonus goal they get for winning the SO vs. the Islanders.

EDIT: Yeah, they're THAT bad.

They getting down to block shots as well? Haven't watched much of them to start this season so I don't really know how things are going over there.

 

[jstewismybastardson]

The Kesler with the Sedins line (when put together) is monstrous

 

[mooger_35]

Shot blocks
D. Sedin : 4
H. Sedin : 0

Surprised to see Daniel with 4. But neither guy is going to lay down to block a shot.

Cody would look good centering the 2nd line now... sigh
