Did Abs get away with a high stick on Mitchell? They were complaining on the Buffalo feed.

When I'm old, I will never forget being able to watch Datsyuk play.

[TheXym 2,606]

Who is this Hellum guy the Buffalo announcer keeps mentioning?

[kipwinger 8,522]

Yeah, he's sorta good I guess.

[TheXym 2,606]

Yeah, he's sorta good I guess.

He's not average is he?

[BottleOfSmoke 5,965]

Yeah, he's sorta good I guess.

I mean he's no Franzen, but...

[Ekmanc 586]

Abby deserves some credit for that nice pass too.

[brett 1,029]

abs is so lucky to play with dats and Z

He's definitely grabbing his piece of the cheese on the top line (or however Babcock put it a couple of years ago).

Nice job by the kid line to delay the breakout there.

He's holding his own this year. I think in the past he's been the recipient of their good play, but this year he's really contributing to that line...not just riding their coattails. I never saw it coming and bitched quite a bit about Abby being on the top line. I was clearly wrong about that. This is me officially eating crow.

[jimmyemeryhunter 2,747]

That top line is getting a boat load if ice time

[rick zombo 3,739]

Need another goal. Outshooting them 2:1. Too close. We know how things went in Philly.

[kipwinger 8,522]

I think they should try (just for a few shifts) to switch Helm and Sheahan. Have Sheahan with Franzen and Jurco and Helm with Tatar and Nyquist. That second line seems like they'd be hard to get the puck from, and the third line would fly.

I get where you're coming from. I don't think I slagged him as much, but he definitely deserves the kudos, that's for sure. Props to you for giving credit where it's due.

Agreed. I have a feeling one of the kids is gonna break through. Edited November 3, 2014 by TheXym

Outscoring them 2:1 too. Just sayin'

I've been saying that about Myers since the rumors started. He's not that good. He's only an average defenseman. If he was 6'1 and 205 lbs. but did everything else exactly the same nobody would be impressed by him at all. For whatever reason hockey fans are mesmerized by "bigness" regardless of whether or not the biggie has much talent.

He's not bad. He'd be a 3-4 dman on the wings. For how bad his team is he only came in today at either -2 or -3. That's pretty darn good compared to the rest of his team. He's one of the only Sabres actually playing. He's not an all star but he is more than just average.

I think the 5k fans that showed up in Florida a couple weeks ago make more noise than this mostly full arena.
