Kind of. Both their 4-1's include an EN.

Score 1, blame the goalie doesn't make sense to me.
- Lunaion

I listed all 12 losses.

4 were " 1 goal scored" games.

Still could get a point in 1 goal regulation scored games.
You can win 1-0 correct?

Disagree

Maybe if we lost 2-1.

Score was 6-5. Upl was terrible
- Boss34

It was 5-3 with a little over 5 minutes left. The moment Donnie threw them on the ice, the game changed. Donnie or that line are the #1 reason.

Seriously, take a look at the nhl goaltending stats.

Anderson 25th
Comrie 45th
In goals against

Take a long look at the stats and get back to me.
- Boss34

Well, yes. If you play garbage defense you're going to have bad stats. Chicken and the egg. I think that our bad players have terrible numbers because they suck, you think it is because the goalies suck. Again, are the goalies playing well when the good players are on the ice and then tanking when they see Bryson?

Nah goaltending was fine.

Olofsson's and Casey's fault.
Terrible 1/8 of the game they played.
- Boss34

Considering that trio allowed half of the high danger chances against (5) in a matter of about 8 and a half minutes is, yeah I'd say they were definitely a problem.

They also allowed the only two high danger goals against.

We got trucked in most of those games. Hell, we got trucked in some of the games we won.

So you're saying that the goalies are fine when the good players play and the goalies get sunburn when the bad players are on the ice? Interesting.....

I'm actually saying the players need to be good because the goalies aren't good enough to bail out the bad plays.

Did the D earlier, here's the F's:

Mitts 6 GF-12 GA
VO 7-13
Krebs 7-11
Girgs 5-7
Asplund 10-12
Vinny 8-9
------
Cozens 16-14
JJ 16-14
Okposo 8-6
Skinner 20-13
Tage 20-13
Quinn 11-7
Tuch 16-9

- TheSabresTaco

That is actually an excellent point. I do think our goaltending has been average, maybe slightly below. But yeah, it can't overcome what we saw last night. So is it easier to get better goaltending to try to overcome our 4 or 5 bad players or can we just not play those players anymore?

It was 5-3 with a little over 5 minutes left. The moment Donnie threw them on the ice, the game changed. Donnie or that line are the #1 reason.
- Lunaion

I see what you're saying. It was a momentum changer.
Very disappointing and good point.

Still, I went to the game, the goaltending let the Sabres down. Need some big saves, timely saves.

I like upl, he sucked. More than the 8 minutes of #37 .

Donnie playing that line for less than 9 minutes (EV) is a strong statement. If they're not going to rotate in the press box, that's probably as good of a statement as you're going to get. Next closest line had about 13 minutes.

So the game tying goal - he needs to make that save?

This is definitely close. They were both really bad.

- Slump Buster

You have nothing to stand on except your opinion.

The stats show how bad these goalies are playing. Deflect or ignore it.

Yes, the defensive injuries certainly adjusted the goalies #'s, but they are brutal.

- TheSabresTaco

Again, look at the goals that were scored. That cross-ice pass just outside of the crease is going to score 40% of the time. 40 freaking percent. You can't allow that. And it isn't like they got every one. 46 was an embarrassment out there.

I got it - the goalie's stats are a reflection of his play and not the defense in front of him. Makes complete sense.

Neither goalie was good last night.

- TheSabresTaco

So I guess they better stop making so many bad plays during the game, maybe it's 1 less goal.

So the game tying goal - he needs to make that save?
- Slump Buster

How about just 1 of the 6……

- Slump Buster

I'm not saying you're wrong. They scored on 4/10 of their HDSA overall. Be better, goalies.

Look real ugly for VO if he didn't have 3 or 4 EN
- Buff36

You're right, that's crazy bad. Same lines though, it'll be fine.

3rd line played under 9 minutes at forward

Goaltender plays the full 60 minutes

See the difference
- Boss34

And in the 60 minutes.

How many were at 5v5 and who was on the ice for the 5v5 goals.... 3rd line

So the game tying goal - he needs to make that save?
- Slump Buster

He needed to make 1 more save. Pick a goal.

I cant believe you've been defending a 6 goal allowed performance for hours?

25 measley shots
