Butcher has looked okay. I know he's turned into a whipping boy because he makes a lot of dumb mistakes, but there's a lot to like in his game. He really moves the puck well and has a great idea in the o-zone.
We’re not a playoff team by any means but we’d be in a lot more games with better goaltending and I’d honestly be happy to never see Butcher, Fitzgerald and Bryson again. We have a solid 5 d core without them, add a few good FA and our D can be really really good. Also, bringing in Quinn and Peterka will help with finishing I think as well next year.
I have a theory. The war room is in Toronto. So that makes Toronto the base of officiating in the NHL (or so one would think?). So, clearly all the refs are Leafs fans and just can't stand to see Buffalo win. Move the home office to Buffalo and we win the cup. I've solved every hockey problem ever.
Let’s not forget that Brad May deked Ray Bourque out of his shorts for the May Day goal. Bourque’s greatness is hardly diminished by that moment. Power will have his day.
The reffing is horrible on all accounts. We probably wouldve gotten a delay of game had we not been on the PK, just call the game. Zemgus lifted the opponents stick right into his face. Thats a stretch to call that a penalty on STL. The icing called in STL end with Faulk (i think?) was BOLOGNE because he just chose not to play it. The hooking calls are both bogus because STL realizes they can just tuck the stick into their arm and get the call. And then calling OP for the crosscheck even though thats not why he went down, it was a high stick FROM SCHENN also as POWER HIGH STICKED FITZGERALD. The ref just felt like "..uh guy went down, closest guy to me was Power...must be him" and ignored the fact that you shouldnt call that. Call none or both in that scenario.
I hate being a fan sometimes lol… even losses that don’t matter piss me off. So many opportunities 🤷
That's how ya know you love the damn team hahahaha!
I missed Samuelsson tonight.
I'ma let my boy Gattuso sum this one up
Good thing they don’t play basketball, cause they’re almost allergic to rebounds.
I wouldn't even say that, it's like the rebounds have been magnetized to the Blues
Casey has looked nice tonight, a little extra pep in his step and better possession
The good news is we have 40M in cap space and 3 firsts to replace the likes of Eakin,Butcher,Bryson.

Getting this as a tattoo. I’ll quote you
This is the best comment I've seen all night.
Waste opportunities, usually lose games. The effort and hustle is there, but the shot quality is not.
Can't win em all
Dahlin is turning into a pest 😂 I love it
Just no puck luck tonight
RJ’s creepy giggle just now lmao wut
I just wanna say I cannot wait until the day Cody Eakin no longer plays on this team
Sabres 3rd or Blues 5th was probably going to shift momentum for remainder of the game.
I feel like the Sabres have more frequent and quality chances tonight, but Blues are capitalizing on what they are given and a little more puck luck
It's like the Blues just have their number tonight. They're stopping pretty much every good chance the Sabres generates.
The way Power reads plays, joins rushes, and wants to get involved. So hot.
Damn Andy punched that one outta the air.
Lot of softies man

WELP....keep fucking pushing!!!
Puck bouncing all in one direction tonight. Shit happens. Love the effort the boys have shown.
We’ll that one was bullshit
These goals are so SOFT
Skinner could have 5 tonight. Rough luck.
Dahlin's trying to think like the puck
Cozens need to make better choices with the puck. He’s been low key brutal for a while
I’m a little concerned of his ceiling tbh. He has never shown off the table scoring sense or skill like other players on our team.
I feel like he's definitely hitting the wall.
I remember a few weeks ago being surprised he was near or at 30 points. Seems like he’s had a real quiet year. Hoping it’s just a sophomore slump
He's been reallll turrible tonight
At the game & just gotta say I appreciate all the ppl here who changed their Eichel jerseys to Tuch jerseys lol there are many
Eichel reading this comment like...
Just keep on 'em, boys!
Did RJ say "Skinner with the blackhand?"
Mr meatball will convince them to pull it out
Sabretooth with OP's grandma is hilarious
I have a theory. The war room is in Toronto. So that makes Toronto the base of officiating in the NHL (or so one would think?). So, clearly all the refs are Leafs fans and just can't stand to see Buffalo win. Move the home office to Buffalo and we win the cup. I've solved every hockey problem ever.
They are Leafs fans but at the same time, hate them.
Both of these refs were born in Ontario, so it's more likely than you think.
You, I like you.
You’re hired. Idk for what but you’re hired.
can we throw McD behind the bench for just a period and see what happens…
You watch your mouth
That's casting doubt on the Meatball Man though. I trust the Meatball guy to do some stuff!
WAY too much Duffer on my tv right now
McDermott is the fucking man.
Dude cool to see McDermott hyping the guys up
One of the most frustrating periods of hockey I've seen in a long time. Generating SO many scoring chances, and benefiting exactly nothing from it.
[удалено]
Go away Karl the Killer Gamer
Shut the hell up
[удалено]
Those are definitely words you said
Are you having a stroke
Huh?
How was that not a penalty on skins??
Cause were also playing the refs
How is no one there in relief for Skinner in the zone?! CMON!! And we gotttttta be able to hit these 1-on chances.
Jesus how many high threat scoring chances have we had? 50?
So frustrating to watch right now!
Okay no more backhands
Overruled. Backhands are awesome.
These refs visiting from St Louis?
Sloppier than a burrito with double everything and all sauces….
Can’t keep failing to capitalize on these opportunities.
Oh I assure you they can 🤦
Sabres still hold all the momentum it appears
Donny Meatballs will get these boys working even harder going into the 3rd!
Biggg whiff. Ooof
Need to get one back here before the end of the 2nd
Well uh…welcome to the big league kid
Let’s not forget that Brad May deked Ray Bourque out of his shorts for the May Day goal. Bourque’s greatness is hardly diminished by that moment. Power will have his day.
Yupppp hahahaha
Some growing pains right there!
Wtf was Anderson doing
Being Anderson. Where have you been. Begging for this team to use some of that unused cap money to get a goalie.
Power caught looking like a rookie there
Don’t you start
Tage > o’ Reilly
Tage > anyone else on any other team
Cmon boys, secure this W! Minnesota thanks you in advance
Rooting for you guys in the playoffs this year 🤝
Tuch can fucking fly when he wants to
Pretty sure him and Eichel had the same skating coach for a while
Power hour aaaaaaaaaa
Not a charge on Brys cool
Aw Krebsy just missed
Mr. Krebs was def not feeling it now on that one :(
Rolling puck got the better of him
Joki realizing his career is coming to an end. Can’t just “skate” by any more on an awful losing team.
His career isn’t close to over 22 year old RHD will get shots from other squads praying that it’s the “sabres affect”
Joki is playing around power, and he’s not used to his play style yet, back off on him
Jesus joki
Eakin you fuckin goofball
Joki has no idea what hes doing
Joki having a rough night tonight
The Power family being decked out in Sabres gear warms my heart
That goal was made by three key pieces of the future and awesome to see the building go electric off it
Power’s face after the assist is everything
I already fucking love this tall kid so much
POWER POINT
He TUCH'D that one away right in the back of the net!
I just want to point out for the record I thought of that before I heard RJ make basically the same joke
TIC TAC TUCH
First point babby
TUCH TIME
Power first point on a dish to Mr Tuch himself
YES FUCK YOU REFS
Man these refs are just bad tonight huh
We got the newest refs. Must have been born yesterday
Even the commentators are saying these refs suck LMAOOO
RJ and now Rob both callin out the refs now you like to see it
These refs are a joke.
For anyone that doesn't believe the league decides games....
I thoroughly enjoy watching Joki casually skate around aimlessly on the Pk. That was a 5-3
Is there any way to still listen to wgr streams for games? Every time I try using audacy it’s some national program like espn
Sometimes you can coax the MSG play by play out of it but it's inconsistent
wgr’s website has the broadcast I believe
You can with the NHL app on the iPhone, click the headphones at the top right
The reffing is horrible on all accounts. We probably wouldve gotten a delay of game had we not been on the PK, just call the game. Zemgus lifted the opponents stick right into his face. Thats a stretch to call that a penalty on STL. The icing called in STL end with Faulk (i think?) was BOLOGNE because he just chose not to play it. The hooking calls are both bogus because STL realizes they can just tuck the stick into their arm and get the call. And then calling OP for the crosscheck even though thats not why he went down, it was a high stick FROM SCHENN also as POWER HIGH STICKED FITZGERALD. The ref just felt like "..uh guy went down, closest guy to me was Power...must be him" and ignored the fact that you shouldnt call that. Call none or both in that scenario.
I was 30 ft. from Power on that and I'd have called it a cross-check; just sayin. Didn't agree with Cody's penalty though.
Does the lettuce flow just as good in person as it does on TV?
The refs tonight: Garrett Rank and Beau Halkidis.
Garrett Stank and Beau Smellkidis more like
This wedding (the refs) is horseshit!
Bullshit penalty calls. Eakin’s stick was being held.
Did anyone else hear someone on the ice say “that’s a crosscheck Power!” during the broadcast? (Even though he barely touched him)
[удалено]
Why you here buddy boy? Go to the
Silence blues fan
You still gotta control your stick when it gets lifted, thats no excuse
Uh… did he just dive after getting “high sticked “ by his own teammate? And then somehow got a cross check?
Glad the refs gave the Blues that goal
Oh Power is getting a goal tonight now
These refs are fucking trash
[удалено]
Did you say something troll?
Held stick = hooking Held stick = hooking Teammate high sticks teammate then flailing to the ice = cross checking
Fuck are you in our game thread for?
The refs, theyve missed so many calls
Some elite diving by the Blues here
Can't blame them for it working, but these refs are hot garbage
Perfect. Now Owen can be 1 on 1 with the true Sabres legend Cody eakin
Gonna be one of those games apparently
Owen doesn’t take shit from nobody
Did I miss the memo that holding the stick is no longer a penalty?
So that's twice now STL holds one of our guys' sticks and we get called for hooking.
Oh eakin
Thats holding, eakin needed to drop his stick tho to show that… another hooking call thats actually a hold.
Well I bet he's pretty Saad sitting in the box.
Loving this AMO line lately
Blues fan taking a stroll. Powers is looking good! Excited for you guys. Also jesus christ Sabres are aggressive.
Assman makin it bounce
That just made me audibly go "WOOOAAAHHH"
ASPLUND!!!!
That was the cleanest tip I’ve seen this year
👀 💦
Power looking good already
Owen Power is fucking cerebral out there. On the PK game 2 against the number 2 power play. You love to see it.
NOOOOOOO I WANTED OWEN TO BARRY THAT
Barry lol
So no trip call when power was in the corner, then the blues guy holds dahlins stick and its a hook…
Does the nhl live stream actually work for anybody? Sucks not being able to hear the game
LETSSSSSSSSS GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
ITS TIME FOR SABRES HOCKEY
Do it for
At the game. Eakin on the ice for warmups and no Samuelsson
It’s so nice to have games to look forward to during the day. I love football but one day a week is too little for me.
Tage revenge game incoming
Tage hat trick tonight, calling it now
Predictions:
Demanding a refund for my tickets if power doesn’t score a hat trick
