Hard fought comeback, valuable lottery point, something for everyone.

In other news… Cavalry FC in the lead. CPL final on CBC now! Live from Spruce Meadows!

There was no risk on that 4 on 3 either.

You ice your talent, every time. Instead they iced the most disjointed combination of players with no one wanting to shoot except Kadri when there wasn't a shot.

Including last year, this team is absolutely brutal at managing the puck in key areas of the ice. Turnovers just inside our own blue line and at the opposing blue line are causing huge problems.

Forwards are blowing the zone, way over handling the puck (Kadi, Bahl) and in general making poor decisions over and over again.

A 4 on 3 in OT and they can't even generate a scoring chance.

If not for both goalies playing really well and hiding our warts this team is in the lottery.

Well
All the former professional hockey players on here who advocate losing are not playing professionally for a reason now

The team certainly doesn’t give up which is good for youngsters to see. If flames don’t finish bottom 10 it will be because of goaltending. Both goalies have been good this year so far. Buffalo didn’t have a lot of shots but it seemed 80% of shots were grade A chances. Nice job vladar.

Y'all wanted Savard gone, he's gone and the PP sucks still. It's almost like the players suck.

And no one should be surprised.

I disagree.

I thought this was one of Huberdeau's better games this season, and he was shooting the puck a lot today. He and Kuzmenko looked more effective than we have seen recently, and I wouldn't mind seeing them together for a few games.

Also, Vladar was great.

I have noticed the last few games I have watched on SN that there is no longer any scoring play summary after goals are scored. What is that about? It is often too hard to hear the in-house goal announcement.

Best chance was weegar on his off wing and Kadri didn't pass it for 1 timer. Weegar then slammed his stock in frustration

You gotta pull Huberdeau off of the PP. The puck just dies on his stick.

And ultimately, move the puck FASTER! You've got to try pulling players out of position.

Yeh, I meant both the OT and the shootout. Zero speed and creativity. No danger for the Sabres goalie at any time.
