How is chad Johnson doing.. perfect example of a gm being stubborn(drunk) and Force feeding lehner after giving up a first for him

If GMTM drinks as much as you say, he's gotta be great to hang out with. That's a GM I can get behind. Blow at high dough!

Can we pull the goalie during the shootout and just have Bogosian flop in front of the net?

Yeah, I think that's even more damning than his horrible play, if he shuts them down in practice, yet literally can't make a stop against other teams they have no chance. Just don't let it get to a SO and they'll be fine. Thankfully there is no SO in the playoffs if they ever make it with him.

Lehner is so far from a great goalie it's not even funny. His rebound control and shootouts are maybe the worst in the league.

Go with Nilsson. We want wins right?

This isn't Mighty Ducks 2.

Nilsson looked good against Pittsburgh in the shootout but look lost his other two times in it.

Sabres not scoring in them either doesn't help.

But it's also easy to forget that Lehner kept this only a 1 goal game in the first he was the only one that showed up. .923 save percentage that game.

Well, they didn't call Carrier's blatant delay of game in the 3rd either. Probably just a makeup non-call
- sbroads24


Another moronic old bromide.

Call everytbing, always, and stop this nonsense and maybe the games will actually be exciting again the majority of the time.

Yes let's annoint Nilsson as the savour based on his 10 games this year, ignoring his first 4 years in the league

But it went to the shoot out , No one cares how he played . Final score is recorded as a stat.
Nilsson should have been brought in for the shoot out . Better record.

I know Fitz disagrees, but Guhle is clearly the 3rd best defender on this team right now.

I'm also sick and tired of Byslma falling into the Gorges trap playing him with Risto.

Just stop it with that garbage.

Who's anointing him? He's better right now. If he starts to suck, then go back to Lehner

I don't think the Sabres have scored a goal in the shootout with Lehner in net either.

Look it's not his thing I get it, be mad if you want and say he sucks at it but to say he sucks in general is plain wrong and as a matter of fact stupid. It's like people don't look at his stats at all.

Oh and broads you can say he sucks at shootouts there's stats to prove that but how can you say he is the worst in the league in rebound control? There aren't stats for that and I know you don't have the time to watch ever single goalie in the league and there def isn't advanced stats on that.
