Reviewing Senators vs Sabres, Bruins vs Lightning



Reviewing Senators vs Sabres, Bruins vs Lightning

Welcome back all right so two games tonight in the NHL and I decided to get creative with which Jersey I wore this is my Star Wars geeky Jersey which says Senators on the front but it’s it’s a a Palpatine Jersey uh and anyway it says D

Cidus on the back so uh two games tonight and I figured ah with the sends on the board I’ll I’ll wear this the funny thing is I went looking for it and when I gave up I was like I don’t know I don’t know where it is it was right

Exactly where I look next so just give up that’s the thing if you’re looking for something you don’t know where it is give up you’ll find it immediately it’s it’s such a weird rule it’s existed since I was a kid it still exists so Ottawa and buffalo we start things off

Here was Corella versus Lucan lukanin came in with the best safe percentage since January 1st the best goals against average I don’t know that he he doesn’t have that now but I’m guessing that it’s taken quite the hit with this one early press by the Savers Yoki Haru has a shot

That saved Krebs has a rush chance that def Flex out Clifton had a shot that was held the Sabers with the early Edge but the sense press and they score it’s Zub from cck and Sanderson at 237 it’s the second shot it just went through UPL so not a great start for UPL

Did the Savers respond well PKA has a rush chance that’s saved and then at 456 on a turnover kachuk scores his first as a member of the sends with Kelly and castc with the assists so while the goal tending wasn’t great for Buffalo neither was their defensive

Coverage a lot of turnovers and uh at 601 BS outweights Lucan and puts it in behind him kachuck and Pinto with the assists so it’s three nothing and that’s only the fifth shot so yeah Lucan and had a rough night uh KUB leaks then denied on a fast break so he couldn’t

Score on him Krabs has a r chance that save the game pretty wide open at this point gurgenson is denied the rebounds cleared and then at 849 on a slopper from the left Circle chean scores Pento with the assist it it’s 4 nothing and that ends the night for UPL Levi goes

Into the net uh s press for another cast has a rush chance that’s saved we get a power play for Buffalo a nice mask save on power that power play is killed off Savers press with six minutes left the sends draw Power Play Pinos denight that

Power play is killed off as well uh with 118 left we get 2 minutes of four on four and during the fouron four Ottawa gets their first and only goal they put past Levi kachu scores from Shabbat and Pinto at 1911 and with the score 5 nothing understandably boo birds are out

In Buffalo it is a very empty looking crowd but they can still be pretty loud when they’re not happy it’s 5 nothing for Ottawa after one second period early power play for the S at starts as a four on three it ends up being a five on four

It ends up being killed off and at 254 petka buries rebound tuck and brayon with the assists and the Savers press for another so one thing with a five-goal lead for Ottawa it is Ottawa so you know that they could they could lose that lead uh so the Sabers do press

For another the send press 5 minutes in things get push and a Hold by Corpus tuck has a shot that’s blocked as Sab press the shots are 5 to four for Buffalo 6 minutes in the sabers press at 7 and 1/2 minutes we get a power play

For the Sabers pkus denied in close during that that power play is Ked off and then Clifton wires one from the high slot at 1307 from Bryson that might be the one tonight that may you want Corpus Salo to save but still it’s a three-goal

Lead it’s still 5-2 for the S there’s a near Miss for castc as the s look to answer Thompson tonight the Sabers press after sends with some more pressure 4 minutes left there were a lot of shots in that period only the two goals to to

To speak for and so it’s 5 to two for Ottawa after two third period early jump for the S and I thought the S did a good job of of doing that of taking the plate to Buffalo and not letting them get another one early Skinner has a shot

That’s held the teams exchange turnovers Chan has a chance that’s held five minutes in the shots are three to two for Buffalo Sabers press they’re kept to the outside Joseph has a rush chance that’s kicked aside Greenway a rush chance that’s defended uh Skinner to petka gets picked off Yoki Haru has a

Shot that’s held there’s some pushing uh Zu has a shot that’s held as the senators get some pressure so the goalie poll happens with four minutes left because Buffalo’s down by four that allows the empty net to happen at 1643 it’s Shane Pinto he had a goal and three

Assists bson and Chan with the assists on that one so yeah your final score in this one 6-2 for Ottawa they go to 31 36 and four on the season Buffalo 34 4 34 and 5 and again the narratives out there well you know the s’s getting into good

You know some some some good good environments here and they’re getting the results late in the season and hoping it carries into last into next year we heard that last year I said it last year and didn’t happen shots on net 1811 otta on the 1 1715 buffalo in the

Second 11 to 10 otta in the third final shots are 44- 38 for the SS power plays both teams 0 for two hits 31 to 26 for Buffalo Corpus Salo saves 36 out of 38 Lucan and had a rough night five saves on nine shots Levi had a good night 33

Saves on 34 shots so Levi I think is are in the right start their next game they don’t play tomorrow night there’s a 14 game night coming up tomorrow so it’s a nice early evening for me so I’m going to take advantage of that because tomorrow night it’s not going to be an

Early evening for me although there’s no 7:30 starts all right and the other game tonight was Boston and Tampa Boston needed a point but Tampa Bay has always been a challenge for Boston and this matchup if this happens in the playoffs and it could uh could be very entertaining although again Tampa Bay

Has had Boston’s number in the playoffs over the last decade it’s olark versus vasileski good early back and forth uh COV Firs one wide from the left Circle stamp Co has a one-time that’s kicked aside the bolts press at three minutes all Mark pretty sharp at this point in

The game um blocker save on a rush by geeki the shots are three to2 for Boston four minutes in COV is a net drive that’s defended this is where we start hearing let’s go Bruins chance which got quieter as the game went along it’s kind of that works the chance get a little

Quieter um so M has a rush chance that’s defended pretty well uh the bolts press at8 and a half minutes uh duclair is a tip shot that’s held and then chaffy roofs one from the doorstep uh Paul and aimont with the assists at 10:6 and Coach Cooper has been very uh praising

Of chaffy it sounds like he’s going to be a permanent member of the bolts again Tampa Bay is able to take these young players and turn them into nhlers and it’s remarkable to see how often a player will come up our Collective response as general hockey fans is I

Don’t know this guy I don’t know what to expect and then they end up being a regular in the NHL um stamp Coos has a shot that’s blocked as the bolts look for another the shots are six to five Tampa with 7 and A2 minutes left we get

A power play for the lightning that was killed off one shot on net uh post for makoy the rebounds cleared beachers tonight and close there’s some vasileski chance and then on a turnover Hind and wires one from the slot zaka with the assist at 1710 that ties the game up at

One uh then we had a fight between Frederick and Jano uh the bolts press with two menes left uh the Bruins have a three on two they overpass during that the bolts end up being able to clear it out and the bolts pressed to close out

The period so it’s 1-1 after one second period uh lillberg has a point shot that’s held the shots are 7 nothing bolts at 5 and A2 minutes Lil BG’s another one where’ this guy come from anyways uh pressed by Tamp at 6 and and half minutes so kept to the outside

Point couldn’t bury his first opportunity on a rush and then he buries the next on a wraparound Point scores from liberg and perck at 650 so point you give him a couple opportunities he’s going to score Point’s not going to hit 50 goals this year but he’s not going to

Be far off uh we get a power play for Boston soon after there was a near Miss for Lind Holm late in it that power play is killed off Bruins press with eight minutes left Heinen had a net feed that’s held poster knock with a net drive that gets blocked uh and then

Poster knock has a near Miss during some pressure by the Bruins on the next shift uh W spoon has a shot that’s hell as the Bruins are doing everything they can to try to tie this things get pushed in a hold byar with 140 left Boston gets a

Power play Marshon has a chance that’s tip wide power play rolls over into the third period Tampa Bay leading 2 to one bolts finished the kill chaffy then denied all Mark holds on there four and a half minutes in the shots are only two a piece I thought Tampa Bay did a really

Good job of just shutting things down in the third uh stamp go scores is 30th everybody’s happy until there’s an offside Challenge and just barely offside like it it’s barely offside it’s one of those ones that I think we as fans could agree you know what it

Wouldn’t hurt the NHL to just let them go when they’re that close like if you had a a line say two Ines or an inch beyond that blue line where you say you know what if it’s within that inch who cares who cares let it go I I don’t

Think that would be awful and I think think that might solve the fact that some of these offside challenges take a while but yeah so cuz I don’t think that having like your blade in the Zone by like a hair by like a millimeter makes a big difference yes I’m Canadian so uh

The bolts pressed they’re kept to the outside debrusk is robbed in close the bolts clear uh the Bruins press with 7 and a half minutes left but Tampa Bay blocks points then denied Peak Sav the next shot it was going to cross the line he saved it so did lindol um things get

Pushy and Punchy on a hold byar the teams exchange rushes the goalie pull takes until 1 minute left because Tampa Bay was doing a good job of controlling the puck and for checking so they prevent Boston from getting that that Rhythm and and getting that chance six

On five in fact we end up with a neutral zone face off with 48 seconds left because of of the Bruins having trouble setting up uh the empty Nets at 1933 it’s kerov he gets his 124th Point believe it’s his 124th anyways hman and vasileski with the assists Tampa Bay

Wins at home 3 to1 they go to 40 25 and 7 they are now two points back of the Toronto Maple Leafs in the overall standings two that’s it and tomorrow night Toronto’s at home against Washington Washington’s red hot so Boston drops to 42 17 and 15 they’ve

Lost three out of four now in regulation shots on that 12 to 10 Tampa in the first 97 Tampa in the second 97 Tampa in the third as well they outshoot Boston 30 to2 24 power plays Boston 0 for two Tampa Bay 0 for one the hits 46- 38 for

Tampa so the hitting tonight shows you we’re getting closer to the playoffs ol mark 27 saves on 29 shots fki saved 23 out of 24 so there you go let me know your thoughts in the comments section below as always don’t forget to hit like And subscribe in the event you have not

  1. Sabres relagation to the AHL, please. Could be good rivals to the Rochester Americans and Syracuse Crunch.

  2. One great game and one hideous game. Both my teams lost. 😒🙄😮‍💨😔😭😭😭 Buffalo never showed up for the game and clearly wasn't ready to play; that's on the coaching staff.

  3. I was at the Lightning game tonight and this was one of the Bolts’ most complete games they’ve played all season. An excellent effort all around coming at the right time of year.

  4. Can't find something, we create an invisible cloak for it😅….that's why if u ask have you seen my Palpatine Jersey, Yvonne says its right there….poof it appears to u😅

    Or like Ford Perfect/Arthur Dent SEP, Somebody Else's Problem😉

  5. That Tampa Boston game had me standing up all night with the energy alone. Glad to see Jeannot get his revenge on Frederick even if it wasn't much of a scrap. And my dislike for Duchene's laziness grows by the day, all of the collective minutes wasted by us all to see if a guy's skate was a millimeter or two offsides. If that was a goal against, I still would've wantedbit to count because who cares when it's so close. It's not like the other rules are strictly enforced anyway.

  6. Atrocious performance in the 1st in front of UPL, then Levi.

    The 2nd PD, signs of life. 3rd PD, rather spent and lifeless, then Granato kills whatever momentum they might have had by pulling Levi w/ nearly 4 minutes to go and still trailing by three.

    They lose the draw in Ottawa’s end (what a shock, the worst team the last several years on faceoffs doing that) and a fitting end to a mostly crummy night.

    The fewer games Buffalo plays over several days, the worse they play (or they don’t play at all, until it’s long decided.) Pretty sure the fans’ patience w/ Granato and the folks behind him and their DOA schemes have long worn out; why hasn’t Pegula’s? 😠

  7. I wouldn’t count out Point hitting 50 he only needs 8 goals in 10 games which is possible

  8. Tampa Bay finally playing like the championships level team its been awhile since… Duke has given TBL new found energy they needed and Vasy is starting to play like the best Goalie in the NHL maybe he is getting healthy as the season goes along and dealing with injuries but im loving it

  9. The blueline should act like a transition greyzone, the offsides review exists for missed play that was egreigously offside and wasnt called, Cirelli was offside by an inch and had no impact on the play. Treat it like the MLB does the foul pole everything between the foul poles including the foul poles is fair game

  10. Wings fans one month ago: Hey we might still have a chance at 3rd in the Atlantic

    Wings fans two weeks ago: Ok looks like it's the wildcard

    Wings fans tonight: Ok looks like maybe we can take the final wildcard spot at the end of the season maybe please

  11. I have Sabres season tickets. Seen enough to know this teams quit on the coach and season. Fair. I left the game when it hit 4-0. Had not even reached the first TV timeout yet. Pathetic joke. Still renewed, next years the year 😂
