Can't win them all. But, I'd like to see them come out tonight and look like the team we've seen prior to yesterday.

Had some injuries so it'll be interesting to see what the lineup looks like tonight.

Their response tonight will show us if they are contenders or pretenders


It's only one game, but tonight is huge IMO to get the momentum back

But at least we outshot them 33-24 right?
We really dominated tonight 😂😂😂

- jdfitz77


Nope, but The King played very well and stole some goals from high danger shots.
That's still a good goalie over there.

For sure. I didn't end up watching much after about the halfway mark. They came into the 2nd period better than they'd been in the first, but there were still breakdowns during that first 10 mins of it. At that point I changed the channel and put the football game on. It wasn't their night.

Wondering if the travel is catching up to them at the moment along with the compressed schedule. NY had played 3 fewer games going into last night and of the games they've played, the furthest they've had to travel is Ottawa.

I mentioned that he could be a factor yesterday and basically got laughed at.

done everything possible to trade Risto and another player like Sheary to free up the salary space.
- BeadyEyedDouche

trade risto for a 4th round pick so we have cap relief?


perfect move if you are the sens

skinner starts the third with a penalty

when he gets out of the box, takes another penalty and mouths off to the ref to get a second minor

they had no chance to come back after skinner got 6 minutes in the box

I really just hope this isn't a foreshadowing of the Bills game on Sunday. There were a few "what's wrong with the Rangers" articles going around nationally. They came out with a purpose. The Eagles are in the same boat.

Yeah. I keep seeing those too and have the same concerns. I think where there's a bit of a difference is that the Rangers season is fairly early and it doesn't seem the players have turned on one another, not yet anyway.

The Eagles room is kind of a hot mess right now. That's not to say they can't pull together and play a good game, because it is possible. But it seems things are not going well there in every facet imaginable.

Like I said, not their night. Let's hope Krueger can settle the troops and get them re-organized and ready for battle tonight.

They're not going to win them all, though I feel like last night was typical Buffalo (even in the years the team was good). Come out and basically lay an egg against a team that's been struggling.

Again, though, that works both ways. A team that's been struggling often has its back against the wall. Buffalo is the exact opposite right now.

Very true. Seems to be the theme of the teams we're facing all of a sudden in both the NHL and NFL. Hoping we look like the more desperate team tonight and on Sunday instead of the other way around.

If they go down 3-0 in the first, the responses are going to be great.
Risto sucks
Dpr sucks
Skinner is overpaid
8.4 is a bust
Botts is a putz
Relax we are not going to win the presidents trophy, 8-2-1 is a good start

Eff the sens twice

CBS Sports just suggested the Bills trade a 4th to Miami for Devonta Parker. Does that help them?

Ive seen a few different outlets calling for skinner to be reunited eichel on the top line. With 6 goals and 8 points in 11 games I think you leave him right where he is.

Let olofsson figure it out or find someone else if they break that line up. For the first time in way too long we have secondary scoring and the ability to create some matchups for the third line. Its too early in the season to abandon that

No!!!

You get called out for having a positive outlook on the team.

You have to be miserable on here, don't you know?
