Sabres Youth To Much For Aging Islanders Tonight – Postgame Thoughts

[Applause] W hey fool you ready for another beating you should have never came [Applause] Back well well well NHL how do you like it how do you like writing off our team making fun of our team one more time forgetting that we have a ton of first rounders on this team that were the youngest team in hockey with a ton of cap space in the off

Season the NHL’s getting what they deserve with the Buffalo Sabres right now folks especially the Detroit fans they were making fun of us not too long ago making fun of Us online just laughing especially when they beat us in that game saying oh all the Sabers are back

To normal well I’ll tell you what Redwing fans those two signings look pretty crap right now over there cuz they’re doing squat so enjoy paying a washed up cane and a little uh a little overrated uh the brink it a little 5 fo s guy enjoy enjoy I’ll I’ll keep my 6’3

Cousins and I’ll keep these guys thanks I’ll pass on those guys guys I’m telling you the Sabers tonight would have beaten anybody in the entire NHL the way they looked the first two periods and I know they slowed down in a third they finally got outshot in a period guys it can

Happen yes the Sabres can be outshot but wow did they ever take it to the older Islanders in this one I mean they just the Islanders couldn’t skate with them it was beautiful but the Islanders did what they did threw a ton of hits at us in this game all for not

So what’s great about this is this burns out the Islanders before their next game physically you get what I’m saying this is really good guys that they threw all these hits at us because they’re going to they’re older they they don’t recover as quick as we

Do so guys we will talk about this game and yes the Detroit Red Wings lost in regulation on home ice to Arizona unbelievable unbelievable night for Buffalo Sabers fans guys enjoy it you deserve it youve been through the mill when it comes to these clowns online that love to rip into our team

Screw them tonight all let’s look at the numbers okay one-sided Affair and shots on goal sabes dominate 37-21 it looked like 50 to 15 you want the truth in this one uh we had 55% on the faceoffs they had 4 5 we did very good on the faceoffs

Today that surprised me power play Sabers one for four the Islanders 0 for four we had 21 hits in a game which I’m happy with guys I’ll say it right now any night we get 20 21 hits I am good with it especially when we’re hitting you guys seen Clifton

Tonight and uh the Highlanders had 50 hits oh God I love this I just love this because the Islanders most of those were out of sheer anger uh nine blocks a piece the Sabers had two giveaways the Islanders had four we had nine takeaways they had seven so

Besides the heading game anyway let’s continue shots and goal per period 135 Sabres in the first 166 Sabers in the second and for the first time in the last two games were’re outshot in a period 108 Islanders in the third as the Sabers go into their shell

Basically to protect that lead and taken some penalties too let’s be honest here 3721 total scoring Olson gets his six to open it up at the 428 mark on the power play from petan Power makes it one- nothing and that’s your game winner folks right there and then cousins minutes later at

8:15 from Clifton and Skinner makes it two to nothing and then the Sabers grab the the bull by the horns in this one Benson from Yoki Haru and power makes it three to nothing and uh we go into the third with a commanding lead and the Islanders get

Desperate pull the goalie with like 6 minutes left and Benson finally gets an empty net or it’s like we had four chances about to get one from Dal and Byrum uh 4 nothing that’s your final score so the Sabers guys looked younger faster better as expected Now I want to just check something guys here Clifton had me in stitches tonight he did oh my goodness jeez talk about like you know just a mass a massacre of a play when he nailed him um I just want to check the box score if it’s there or is it not there

Again God nhl.com you are so bad I know it’s there my God this website is such a it looks like something you pay 300 bucks for it does it’s such a bad website Greenway I want to talk about he was a beast in this game guys I know

He’s he was a plus two but he had five hits he was out there he made his presence felt he wasn’t killing players out there but he sure as hell was causing problems on the ice for the opponent so Greenway was a beast tonight uh our little guy Zach Benson

Was all over the place with smart plays tonight also and Dylan cousins looked pretty good in this one I thought I know he scored but he looked pretty good he had three shots in this game again and uh gurgenson only had what two hits he that’s weird I thought I would

Have guessed he had more he had two hits well they were both good ones because when he was out there his presence was felt tonight too uh Skinner just can’t seem to get rolling we need him going it’ be nice when he gets rolling Tage also I know

Tage got five shots but my God some nights he looks invisible with five shots he’s got to get his game going again we need Tage rolling right now this is the time hopefully Tage has a big game in Detroit uh byon LED all defensemen with four hits tonight I was wrong I was

Wrong I set a goal and an assist he got an assist so fire me and uh the other Sabers Dalene uh of course an assist um two hits Clifton he three hits and I think he’s the most hated guy in the dressing room of the Islanders right now I love this

Guy I do we got to keep him man um yeah and getting just I just want to go over the score for a second Arizona and Detroit guys 4 to1 empty net goal unbelievable how the Red Wings have just collapsed well they always got the eer plan Guys so they outshot uh in that game they outshot them 2927 tight game but the the Red Wings only throw out 17 hits in a game like that a game they have to win 17 hits Arizona he threw 16 but you know what I mean so let’s hope this is the Red Wings

Team we catch next game this team has no confidence right now this is beautiful timing to catch these guys so oh standings let’s take a look at it all right uh there’s Tampa Bay with um 74 points I believe they they got two more points didn’t they let me just

Check that before we continue guys hold on I’ll look at it real quick Tampa Bay uh has 76 so that’s a little behind okay guys Tampa Bay did win their game but there you look this we’re we’re not really thinking of Tampa at this point we’re thinking of catching the Islanders

And the Red Wings right now this is where our focus is and we’ll see what happens with Tampa eventually but Tampa came back from two nothing the Rangers choked in that game and won their game so there it is guys take a look now here’s the thing when you look at the

Sabers why I put the regulation wins over in the right column is because you got to remember something is that when if we finish tied with any of these teams that are the three in front of us Washington Islanders Red Wings we will get in we only have to finish tied is

What I’m saying with one of these teams for that second and final playoff spot cuz you got to figure if the if the sabers the Sabers are they’re they’re so in front with the regulation wins now that if they caught those points up there’d even be more

Regulation wins if you get what I’m saying there’s no way those teams this year if the sabes catch one of them will have the same amount of Regulation wins the Sabers have so the Sabers would get uh the walk into the playoffs so we just got to finish tied let’s keep that in

Mind okay so don’t get the idea getting one point in front of these guys although it’s a good idea a tie will do it is what I’m saying so we will take that if need be so the boys got tonight folks did it again they just looked good

They looked like a playoff team tonight they looked ready and you know what I was watching for folks the end of the game I wanted to see at the end of the game if the Sabers were going to keep coming at them and they did they kept if

You look at the if you have any kind of a replay check the last minute or two of the game and you’ll see the Sabres were still throwing a hit here and there they were still coming at them they were not just you know doing the L dah thing that

They were doing for half this season no no no they were coming at them hard they wanted the shut out for Lucan who now has five shutouts my goodness they’re be they’re coming of age folks they really are they’re coming of age I know the record doesn’t say it

Yet but the other numbers are you know the way they look as a team I think this team right now would have beaten our team that finished strung last year in a series right now the way the Sabers look cuz they’re playing better defensively and better physically they are right now

And the truth is we have goal tending that can get shutouts now this is like unheard of when’s the last time we had a goalie five shut outs guys you know this is a a great story right now so I just want to check the

Stats on that I want to check the goalie uh when it comes to shutouts all right so right now um uh up has more shutouts in huk than barosi wow um yeah there’s only Ingram and jarri have more shoutouts than uh than UPL right now they have six UPL is five

And Demo’s tied with UPL I should mention Demco has five also so but you know Demco has been on a team all year that’s been rolling Also let’s be be honest here wow guys wow this is like huge we are three points out next game’s huge I I think you know

I don’t even have to say it guys next game might be the biggest game in this team’s rebuild um up to up to date well maybe not CU we had some big ones last year not fair to say the one in Jersey that we lost was really

Huge cuz you know but this is huge easily the biggest game of the season was tonight and look how we showed up so 7 to3 4 nothing 11 goals three against in the two game home stand here I’m feeling good about the team at home I’m

Not just making that up guys I’m feeling good about them now at home they feel like they’re okay now they’ve settled they’ve become a home team this year now they they’re a team I think that are going to win out most of their home games down the stretch the way they look

Right now and if we win in Detroit and you know what I like our odds if we win in Detroit wow the Red Wings have just crapped the bed this year crap the bed there’s no polite way to say it really how would you feel

If it was the Sabers and they were 33 and 20 and then lost seven and and on a five-game winning streak I think it was five or six even they were on we on a winning streak with 13 games over 500 and we’re do I I don’t think the

Sabres fans would do the stupid thing and talk about they’re in the playoffs because that’s what Detroit fans are doing they thought they’re in and they’re not right now I mean they’re just not and I think we know better than the top playoffs I I would I would I

Know that I would be very careful what I talk about on here I would be I’d be like let’s simmer down there’s like 30 games left there’s a lot of time for us to fall off a cliff so I I I cannot believe Detroit absolutely choked tonight in a

Game they had to win I I I I’m dumbfounded by it how you know really that team has way more veterans than we have and look what they’re doing right now so seven consecutive regulation losses in a row and they’re going to be ready to play us don’t think they’re not

They’re going to be ready folks they’re going to be ready screw them screw them come on men let’s get to it we’re younger we’re faster we’re more talented and the truth is we’re we’re less there’s less stress on us really I know the 13year things hanging but Detroit over there they’re

Really like choking up and their media and everything’s all over them so perfect time to catch them guys we got to get them next game we got to get them next game if we lose that I’ll say it now at least get a point out of the deal

Make sure to get something while we’re there but if we win that game my goodness we’ll be like right knocking on the door for the playoffs we already are right now guys we’re three points out three for those that quit that gave up I think you’re back and you’re

Welcome back the door’s always open to Sab fence come on back in man we need you we need all of you we need everybody here to root this team on and and pull it off what a story this would be if the Sabres got in this year folks what a

Story it would be it really would be I wouldn’t say the one of the the best story in Sab history there’s been other great stories but you know what I mean this is a great great story if they ever got in this year so I’m going to

Leave it there guys I’m going to see you guys in the um in the uh I’m going to do another video I’m going to just do another video cuz uh I’m going to be up late anyway we have company yes yes I thought you’d never get here

Rome wants to talk to the Islanders folks now it say Rome’s taking cheap shots there’s not much we can do about it live with an Islander fans live with it destroy destroy terminate you will be destroyed okay that’s enough that’s enough terminate go play go play so the game is over somebody’s jealous

Again you believe this somebody is jealous again come here we got her little Jersey on somebody is jealous so I’m going to hold her and close out the video guys I’ll see you guys I’m going to do a night cap video because I’m excited man I’m excited I’m feeling good now about this

Season I just I’ll keep saying it it feels right what’s going on it just feels right I felt like they were going to win today I just did I thought they were going to win this game but you guys know how it is we’ve been kind of disappointed all year when we thought

That sure win was coming not tonight tonight right from the start you could tell even when z00 we deserved a better fate in that first period they get the three-goal lead in the second and it’s Lights Out game over but I’m still nervous going into third cuz I know this Islanders Islanders team

Under Patrick W was not going to give up I knew they weren’t going to give up no no no no so you know this isn’t Detroit this is the Islanders this is a team that I I think is a team that would kill Detroit in a series that we play today

In my opinion you know so we got to get them next game guys I’m putting her down blab long enough but I’m excited so tolerated three points I’ll see you guys in the next Video

Hey folks, the winds of change are happening right before our eyes as the boys come through with flying colors in this one and once again they edge even closer to a playoff spot..thanks for watching 😎

  1. Our recent play has shown me that our future is very bright. We have a resilient group. This group is finally finding its groove at the right time. Great speed, defensive coverage, passing , and shots were on point tonight. Great home win again. UPL is a legit #1 tender. He is seeing and reading the game so beautifully.

  2. Acquiring Byram has been just what this team needed. It help that UPL has been lights out most of this year. Now the offense is finally helping him out.

  3. Power , Joker, Clifton, and Byrson are playing soild defensive hockey lately. Greenway is finally using his body and playing free. I kind of like Girgs on the 1st line.

  4. Just got finished watching the highlights…just awesome!
    Thanx for bringing back Clubber Lang 😀

  5. We were only out shot in 3rd due to phantom penalties and a pulled goalie. They're d made a few saves with empty net.

  6. Wow so let me get this straight we get rid of Kyle okposlow and aged Erik Johnson and we improve? The Sabres apparently need me on their management team because I would’ve made these move a long long time ago. I sure hope this isn’t too little too late because I’m dying for some playoff hockey.

  7. Sabres Smothered the Islanders tonight. even if they let up in the third this was a massacre.
    this year this team struggled with an identity especially with all our inconsistencies. Our defense (and goal tending) may just become our identity.
    5 freaking shutouts good lord….

  8. I don’t want to get my hopes up but seeing the Sabres in the yoffs would fix a lot of problems for me😂. Idc if they get swept, just to see playoff hockey

  9. It feels like the trades that were made has really opened the floodgates in these games since Byram joined. This NYI is a very hard team to play offensively against. This was the one team I was worried about in this week. NYI are known for their stinginess in allowing goals. Clifton, that hit…just wow. Greenway was still the difference tbh. He plays his role so well. Cozens (I mentioned in yesterday videos) that he has done a 180 in his play since the slow season start. I wish the Rangers could have beat the Lightning, they were up 2-0 so disappointed to see NYR fall apart. NJ also won. Honestly, Buffalo were skating circles around them. They should have had 3 goals in the first period but persistence paid off in spades. The young legs of the sabres overcame the old legs of the Isles in the long game. UPL, only goalie that had more shutouts in one season was Miller (6 – 11/12 season I believe), yet not one channel has UPL even mentioned in top 10 goalies of this season.

  10. Look what happens when we finally get rid of Okblowso. He's been holding this team back for way too long and i have a bad feeling he's gonna hurt Panthers bad if they keep him in the lineup.

  11. When it comes to the playoffs as of right now, I’m hopeful, but I’m also not getting my hopes up.

    We were all beginning to feel like the playoffs were getting out of reach, but the boys are clawing their way back and now all we can do is see how the rest of the season goes.

  12. The fact the power plays were 4 each is a joke. The NHLs incessant need to even out the penalties is ridiculous. The Sabres thoroughly dominated but they're saying the Islanders played a cleaner game then Sabres? No ticky tack slashing or hooking penalties??

  13. I haven’t finished the video – half way through…..

    But can we figure out what exactly we need to pull off to make the playoffs?? We’re winning against the teams nice us that we’re competing with

    How many losses can we afford?

  14. Getting rid of Johnson and Mittlestadt finally woke these guys up! I still think that UPL isn't getting the attention he deserves from the TSN and ESPN talking heads. The isles couldn't get any offense going in the first two periods, a smothering effort that dominated every aspect of the game except hits! I don't agree with the number of hits BTW, I don't think the league does a very good job with the stats.

  15. It sure was nice of the other teams to allow Benson to fall to us in the draft! He's already figuring out how to play around his lack of strength, if he bulks up a bit he's gonna be insane 2 or 3 years from now.

  16. So I know this doesn't need to be said, but I'm gonna say it anyway our next game against Detroit we have to come out flying because the wings will be looking for vengeance, and if we can hold them off for the first little while I like our chances
