Skinner took a penalty, Scandella deserved a penalty, Reinhart was going wild and getting restrained by 2 or 3 dudes plus refs.

The response was fine.

Risto threw a guy to the ice 3 shifts later, Montour straight up punched a guy in the face with his glove on later in the game. The Sabres were outhitting them all game.

The soft stuff is utter nonsense imo. The top line is full of chutzpah; hell, even Erod has a fighting major this year. The team isn't soft, they just suck.

Well, Nelson is soft

none of them did enough

getting into a scrum and face washing a few guys with your gloves on is hardly the response that is needed when your captain gets clobbered (high) and after the whistle.

I guess I was expecting a better response.

Z got to finish the game

he should have been carted off on a stretcher

sometimes you have to take 5 minutes for the team


sabres instead responded by getting 8 or 9 shots in 55 minutes of play and avoided Z

Sabres should have taken 120 penalty minutes once the game was lost

4 sabres should have been on top of Zadorov within seconds


all 4 of them


as a player, Housley would have skated to the bench and grabbed some gatoraide and hoped for a power play


I bet if eichel got a nasty cheap shot and laid on the ice

3 maybe 4 sabres would have done something about it, if they were on the ice

- homiedclown


Scandella and skunk piled in...skinner and rantanen got two each for roughing...much better response than the lucic/miller incident

we are on the same page. I am glad that the players that were on the ice did something albeit not much, but I don' expect those players to drop the gloves. others should have picked up the slack later on in the game. it was an opportunity to defend your captain and IMO they failed (edit Phalied) miserably.

Scandella addressed it and Eichel was fine. The Sabres got a PP

The game has changed. This isn't 1978

It was 4 guys addressing the situation and Casey Nelson in la la land.

You're making a mountain out of a mole hill

It’s not the 70s or 80s anymore

Bc the NHL has t been that way in a while
And it’s not coming back

He took less money from Buffalo and the Jets...

The Bills have the highest paid center in the league...

If Le'Veon signs in Buffalo omg the Jets fan base might lose it

The Sabres are not the only team that I watch. The response, minus Nelson, was totally appropriate.

It wasn't a situation that warranted putting mair, Peters and Kaleta against the top line and mugging them. Eichel was fine.

Bench clearing brawls are gone, line brawls are almost extinct, fighting is down, and the response was typical of the NHL in 2019. Scandella tackled him, PP Sabres.

I think we all get that, but there is absolutely a time and place for addressing a late and high hit on your captain.

Any word on the Bills trade front? Also, saw colts and Ravens out of the Bell sweeps. This is like the FA version of the Sammy Watkins trade up. How fun, but is it really necessary? And please please please keep Gore, McCoy, Bell and Ivory on the same roster for at least a day.
