No, you’re WRONG. You assume that the guy they put in to replace Teppo is going to fill in the same amount of ice time. In this case, Janik played barely over 4 minutes the entire game. That means the other defense players were double shifted, which means even though it was the same number of players dressed, some of them were much more tired by the end of the game.

So we’ve got Janik who plays next to no ice time, and Fitzpatrick who plays more but can’t hold a puck in the zone from the point to save his life. So I’ll stand by my previous statement… getting healthy on defense would REALLY help this team.

the play was good, but it was far from clean. imagine instead of just knocking the puck out of the crease he shot it over the glass too. well that’s a delay of game penalty. knocking your net off in the defensive zone HAS always been a delay of game penalty. it is no different.

Yeah, I agree with you 100%.

The way that he worded it makes it sound like he doesn’t understand NHL rosters, but if thats what he meant, then I would agree with that.

except they don’t issue penalty’s unless it’s an intentional disruption of the goal. His intentions were clear, he hit the puck before the net, and it was coming out. Had he not hit the puck and net was knocked off, then I would be going nuts right now and would agree with you.

i did, and i was quite serious about it

however a split on the road is acceptable…but this will also be the first series buffalo doesnt start up 2-0 in :ohnoes:

ok you got me. i meant to say a legitimate shot at a sweep (there was none). as much as i love the sabres theres no way we are going to sweep the 3rd round. i’m still liking us in 6 though.

It’s a shame to… his season was amazing for him… the concussion thing will end it quickly. Can anyone say Pat Lafontane? He’s not quite with it anymore because of his concussions.

**_EDIT_**

Thought this was kind of neat…
