Great look from Pommer. Could have been 1-0 Sabres there

I think the atmosphere in the arena in buffalo is one of the worst in the league, not sure what all they can do to fix it.

The answer shouldn’t just be win more, I’ve seen a ton of games in philly when they were absolutely terrible and that place had 3x the energy of even the better games at kbc

Educated, seasoned fans and bad hockey don’t equal energy.

The arena experience itself leaves a lot to be desired, that’s for sure. And Lauren Hall needs to go. She’s brutal.

Agreed. Just frustrating to see them fall into bad habits after that 1st goal. Hopefully the settle in a bit. Up until the Chara goal though I thought they looked pretty good.

I saw at least two shifts. And his minutes are way down.

For defensive zone faceoffs they appeared to have Sobotka out there for potential faceoffs if Eichel got tossed.

I watched the tape and Scandella costed us two goals in that first period. One assisted by Sobotka’s slash.

The fans in Philly are educated and they were terrible for a while.

A 1pm matinee had more energy than most games at the kbc. When you compare the kbc to (ducks) the Td bank place,msg, the shark tank it’s absolutely no contest

Edit: games during the goat head days were a bunch of fun however

They looked really really good until Boston scored, I think if Erod finished on that pass we would have seen a much different first period.

Now is the time to see what captain jack can do to the team during the break

Jack needs to start shooting and stop looking to pass. Had he done that, Chara’s goal may never have happened.

Again, too many passes. Put the puck on net. Clean up the rebounds.

Not gonna generate much offense in this league these days looking for the perfect pass for the perfect shot. Put it on net, battle for loose pucks in front of the net.

Lots of tickets have been pawned off to non hockey fans that don't know how to react during a game .. Fans that were upset with the team and not interested in going gave tickets away or sold for cheap.

"100% of the shots you don't take, don't go in"
