Secondary assists don’t count
- Pegullaville


Yep two main reasons for that goal are eichel’s control of the puck in the flames zone and olofs move and pass. Eichel is rewarded and olofs is a 2ndary assist

Does anyone else HATE how MSG broadcasts will show a graphic or replay too long? We miss the first five seconds after a faceoff numerous times a period.

Can the power play just not suck for 1 game.

Don’t even have to score, just don’t suck.

He’s exactly the kind of vet this team needs. He’s from central N.Y. too, just doesn’t want to go to a Canadian team. He would definitely come to buffalo. I’ve been beating this drum for years. Good call 89!

I didn't hear Brown that was just my pick.

Don't just cherry-pick, Reinhart has been slacking lately too.

Me either. Agreed though. Doubt it would ever happen, rob blake won’t cut him loose. They’re good friends

The same ones who complain about the tank and not making the playoffs will soon turn into the ones that complain about not making it past the first or second round.

The bad players will be replaced, is the core good enough to win a cup ? Maybe the difference between Leon and Reinhart is what might be needed someday ? Perhaps having 3 depth guys is worth more then having a $9M Jeff Skinner.

Why is it not fair to ask these questions ?

Maybe and Perhaps are the fancier versions of IF.

In all seriousness though, your thoughts ?

Eichel is smooth as butter. Any other player gets stripped in front of our own net though. Would have been a very skillful assist.

Horrible positioning by ullmark there. Great shot though.
Never should have been a power play.... poop call.

They only needed 10 seconds of PP time. We have 1,000 minutes on the PP with nothing...

I think it’s OK every now and then to play a hunch, if that’s what you’re asking.

I think it’s appropriate to draw logical conclusions using deductive reasoning.

But I think it’s a big mistake to plan for the future on chance and possibility.

A lot of problems would be solved with just a decent power play. Pretty sure the flames had More chances on our 3 pp’s than we did.

And our tertiary players our horrible at penalty killing

Johnny hockey would look pretty good in blue and gold
