[GT] Sabres vs Flames

[direwolf]

A lot of missed nets on these PP chances.

[djsFlames]

Not playing at the same level as the streak.

[Makarov]

Ice seems terrible tonight.

[socalwingfan]

Treliving's refusal to axe Cameron is the most aggravating stroy of the first half of this year

Not even close. The puck support isn’t even close to what it was during the streak. Hopefully they can get things together again soon.

[smoothskatingbrodie]

No forwards that can shoot the puck

[Rejean31]

Momentum sucking powerplays abound. Please, for the love of all that is holy, can we get rid of ####ing Cameron!!

[Dan02]

Despite the goal I feel our PP is rather confused about who they are trying to setup on the powerplay because they have no shooters out there. Not to knock him but i don't think any goalie fears Johnny teeing up a slapper from the boards.

Worked in our favour on the O'Reilly chance

Good period boys. Not great, but good.

[Makarov]

Gaudreau engaged tonight.

[Duffalufagus]

We are clearly the better team. Need to bear down and get these points.

Yup, they're nowhere near the level they were at two weeks ago, and they're being outplayed by the Buffalo freakin' Sabres.

That break couldn't have happened at a worse time for this team.

[FeyWest]

Trying to be too fancy and force passes, overall a good period but could have been better! Amp it up in the 2nd.

[dino7c]

okay period

bad break and give away cost them a goal...#### happens

[ComixZone]

Flames got better as the period went on. They should come out ready to push in the 2nd.

[Erick Estrada]

A couple of weird plays by Monahan in that period twice having point blank opportunities and just awkwardly not getting his stick near the puck.

[PugnaciousIntern]

Not a terrific period given the 3 to 0 PP chances. Luckily the Sabers have generated close to zero offense beyond the early post and the mid-period giveaway in front of the net.

This team looks nothing like they did before the break. Hopefully they find their grove again soon.

[TheIronMaiden]

Giordano had an excellent period.

There's a good reason our shooting percentage is like 7th worst. Our shots are generally awful.

Alright time to try and be more positive cause it's too easy to be a neggy nellie in here. Just wish they could give us good things to say in a first period at home against a beatable team, there just isn't much so far.
