Season long Game Day Thread

[JATMtheJATM]

i figured making a single thread for game day threads would be better since this forum is slower in the sabres department.

anyways, they sabres are getting taken to school. but they seem to be generating SOME offensive pressure on svedberg, who looks like a decent young goalie.

.....svedberg, who looks like a decent young goalie.

If the Sabres like him, they should make an offer.

The Bruins develop their goalies for a long time in the AHL where Svedberg has been. I believe he was the AHL goalie of the year in 2012-2013.

The Bruins have signed journey goalies to play back up last year and the year before. They leave the Bruins to start or challenge to start in the NHL after a year.

The Bruins have Subban in the AHL developing as well.

I am sure the Sabres could get Svedberg for their 2nd round pick next year. Perhaps even a conditional 2nd round pick.

The comparable would be Bishop being traded to TB last year.

he projects to be a good backup.

the sabres have lots of youth that project better.

Of course.

well, they do. the sabres need top end talent in net. they lack that.

No. trades. Within. The. division.

No exceptions.

Also, our scoring is pathetic so I wouldn't be enamored by a guy for playing well against this team.

Why do I think the Polacks in Buffalo were saying this in the early 70's in Buffalo when industry just kept moving away?

The skid mark is deep.

Re: Season long Game Day Thread

Anyone actually going to stay up and watch this cluster**** tonight? I don't want to but free CI is ending soon and the Sabres aren't exactly going to get a lot of nationally televised games this year so I'll at least watch some of it.

Re: Season long Game Day Thread

I saw the first and some of the 3rd before I fell asleep. Some great opportunities early but they couldn't capitalize. The first PP was one of the most pathetic I've ever seen.

Moulson looks a lot like Vanek in the 26: always right three but rarely able to bury it.

The first goal was on Hogson- still a defensive liability. Ennis has been the best player so far to date. It's probably age but Gionta is surprisingly average. He has not impressed me at all.

The good news is I can only see Carolina getting in our way of achieving a proper tank.

we should get Eichel or McDavid.

Re: Season long Game Day Thread

Oh and I forgot to mention that Stafford is useless.

Re: Season long Game Day Thread

I watched the LA game until they got their second goal. Up until then, there was a chance a puck might bounce off Stafford's face and into the net or something like that. It wasn't going to happen twice though.

They look like peewees out there. Bad peewees. They couldn't string together two passess if the franchise depended on it. One goal over four games and with 10% of the season played they are on pace to score under 100. On the bright side, they are only averaging 3.5 GA. Could be much worse.
