They only had 3 high danger chances at 5v5 all night and Krebs had the shot assist on all three lol.

Robinson chance, Clifton chance, and sent Girgensons and Robinson in on the 2 on 1 that Girgensons hit the post on lol

JJ and Benson seeing limited ice is just as interesting.

Need to win that in regulation, those 3 + Skinner barely see the ice and LOG keeps getting ice time.

Anyone know who the Big Dlineman was that ran the 4.48 in the 40 today! Holy poop

Could Donnie be scared to put Benson out at certain times with the way he seems to have a Bullseye 🎯 on his back right now.

Sorry but #freeBenson isn’t trending on Sabres Twitter. #freethe3goalstud is so I had to comment

None of the forwards were particularly good
- sbroads24

Yeah and the one forward who actually showed well at 5v5 tonight is the one you came on here to rag on.

May I suggest therapy ?

Not sure why the focus is Krebs.

3 lowest ice time F's:

Benson 12:46 1 Shot
Peterka 11:57 0 Shots
Krebs 10:45 0 Shots

Skinner was also effectively benched in the 3rd?

Rumor going around that he's still hurt.

Tall, but he only weights 260lbs. But still that's Wild

He was next, at 13:13 and I don't think he saw much in the 3rd.

Don't think it's just a rumor, we were expecting VO last game.

Don't mind going to 3 lines, but rolling LOG out needing a regulation win is weak.

The serious rookie penalties. You can’t take that risk.

And I’m not blaming Benson. He’s had some garbage calls against him

this will continue to happen next season with this coach

Interesting timing for Evolving Wild to post this after the Dahlin discourse today but the analytics show his defensive game has regressed a bit this year but the drop in offence is some horsepoop luck if I have ever seen it.

Granato says Krebs (and a few others) didn't play much in the 3rd because he wanted to "shorten the bench". Says he was not injured. Krebs only played 10:45.

What Granato says post-game is meaningless as he'll just change his story the next time he talks, like he did with Erik Johnson.

Down by 1 and wanted to lean on Okposo, Girgensons, and Robinson over Peterka, Benson, and Krebs is certainly a choice.

I certainly don’t mind Robinson as a 12th/13th forward but my Christ

Put Benson's hands on Robinson and he would have scored 2 goals today.

robinson was second for even strength ice time for sabres forwards tonight with 15.28

casey with almost 19 minutes

I think that's the bigger story tonight than just focusing on Krebs.

If it would have ended the other way on a too many men penalty, it would have been a blood sport.

Thought Robinson had a really good game for the most part. Just sucks his Hands are worse than Girgensons. Put JJ's skill in Robinsons body and you would have a Powar Forward

if mancari could skate like skinner, he would have had 300 goals in the nhl

Tage going sicko mode with that PP goal to force OT saved Donnie from being burnt at the stake tonight

As somebody on Twitter put it, a 3% chance of going in shot turning into a goal bailed out a bad plan.

I don't get that one. I'd want him shooting there.

Tage is one of maybe 5 guys who are scoring on that shot with Vasy of all goalies in net.

Vintage Tage moment there. Going to need a lot more of those down the stretch
