We win !!!!!
1st start was tonight as I'm sure you are aware.
I missed a couple games unfortunately.
Happy about this win. Hopefully it gets em going
We needed it.
Gotta love this one. The Sabres committed some penalties in the 1st, but it was complete domination after that. In the 2nd, the Islanders had one PP and 1 good shift, but it was all Sabres other than that. PK has been dominant. Isles were the best faceoff team coming in, but Sabres dominated that too.
Varlamov was the only Islander that showed up. He’s the only reason this game wasn’t a complete slaughter. Comrie deserved the shutout. The one goal he gave up was a fluke in garbage time.
PP didn’t score but they were organized. They had shots and zone time. It’s a clear improvement.
Cozens remains the best player on this team. I like the new line alignment. Cozens/Tuch/Skinner is just insane talent. Having Tage and Greenway on the same line is so much size but still talented. I hope Tage doesn’t see it as a demotíon. The sample size is small but it looks like a better distribution of talent.
Mixed feelings on Tuch fighting. I love the fact that he stood up for the dirty hit on Skinner that wasn’t called, and he won the fight. And I don’t care about him taking the extra 2 for instigating when it was a dirty hit on a star and our PK is unreal. But, he’s one of our top offensive players and it took him off the ice for 5.
Islanders put their dirty 4th line out on the ice after the 2 late goals for the Sabres in the 2nd. Their line got called for a penalty but committed at least 3 that weren’t called. Good coaching and good discipline on the Sabres. No reason to fight when you’re up 2-0 at home.
Biggest disappointment last night is Comrie not getting the shut out. With Levi & UPL, this acquisition gets marginalized. He's good and wants to show he is an NHL starting goaltender. The Sabres should announce him as their number 1 starter and ride him for as long as they can. The team plays hard in front of him too. So you know they like him.
