Michael Pachla: That was fun. Sabres pull out a thriller in Montreal

First.

They said on the radio that the record of their next 7 (I think) opponents was something like 65-31-12. We're going to see how much better they really are coming up.

can you imagine what would happen if the sabres beat the leafs in the first round of the playoffs this spring

That game was fun, but only because we ended up coming out on top. Had we lost, I think we'd all feel a bit differently about it this morning.

Right now I'm just enjoying the fact they are fun. I'll worry about if they are really good down the road. It has been a long time since they were fun to watch.

I honestly didn't think they would, not because I don't think they're that good, but simply because road teams rarely give up that many leads and come out on top.

goal caused Sabres coach Phil Housley to make a goalie change as the second-year coach sent starter Carter Hutton to the crease for the third period.

I can't remember the last time the Sabres successfully used the goalie switch to rally the team

nice blog


it sure feels good to win that barn burner instead of coming out on the losing end because x, y or z happening in OT

I don't care for him that much, but Jeremy White is right. It's time to start demanding more from this team.

That Jack and Jeff guy are pretty fun to watch together... it would be nice to watch them for the next 5+ years

Nice. I'm in Orlando Sunday to Wednesday.

Can we please, please sign Skinner long Term. I absolutely love his game. ( in my best Forrest Gump voice) Jack and Jeff goes together like peas and carrots.

Have fun!

defense was bAAAAAd all around last night. dahlin was probably the least bad.

mccabe had some serious WOOF moments, so did risto

at least they can score now

The last time we made the playoffs, in the game clincher against Philly Enroth started and Miller came in in the third they won in OT on a Vanek breakaway.

Skinner is on pace for 55/35/90 and +55
Pommer 50/35/85
Eichel 20/75/95

Risto ... -60
No he doesn't suck...but he needs to have reduced role and minutes.
#3 at about 19 - 20 minutes per night would seem ideal

From Smillie blog:

you know who's good? Jack Eichel.
- DoubleDown

When we play Buffalo, the game should start at 2-0, to account for at least one
goal each that Skinner/Pommer will score.

yup. one of his worst games. i guess its pointless trying to figure out who was the least bad.
