Lindy’s Sabres bully Penguins in preseason opener



Lindy’s Sabres bully Penguins in preseason opener

In their first preseason game, the Sabres were fast, physical, and managed to score SEVEN GOALS. Sneaky Joe talks first impressions of Lindy Ruff’s system and style of play.

There’s no doubt the Sabres looked like they wanted to finish every check, despite it being preseason, and the Penguins did not take kindly to it. Plus, Zach Benson’s performance, and JJ Peterka’s hat-trick.

    Ideal lines would be:
    Peterka – Thompson – Tuch
    Benson – Cozens – Quinn
    Kulich – McLeod – Zucker
    LEAGUE SHATTERING 4TH LINE

    Bryam – Dahlin
    Power – Sammy
    Jokiharu – Clifton

    UPL
    Levi

    Buffalo didn't play Zucker-McLeod-Greenway. I'm assuming Lindy wants to see more of that Rousek-Krebs-Kulich line to see if any of them are worthy of a spot.

  10. @neilflood6508

    Zucher, McLeod & Greenway were held out. I expect them to play Monday instead of either the youngsters or the 4th line. Not sure what changes there will be on D. Gilbert will need game time before the Europe trip and Dahlin may be ready to return if Lindy wants to risk him. Levi has been announced as the starter on Monday.

    Never take much from pre season, all the players will in better game shape in the next couple of weeks. Buffalo did what they should have done given the quality of opposition. I expect some poor mental mistakes in the first few games, particularly whilst Lindy is bedding in his new system.

    Can't get carried away here. I mean The Pens put their scrubs in the lineup we had our starting lineup. We should have blown them out and we did.
    UPL concerns me still and nobody is talking about it. During the last 5 months last year he did improve. However, last year as last night we would be winning going away the score was not in doubt and UPL would allow a questionable goal. I know it's nitpicking but if you want to win a Stanley Cup you need championship goaltending and UPL does not give us that.

  16. @gootvansquid

    Mcleod, Zucker, Greenway and certainly not least; Dahlin – weren't even there.
    The new Team-wide Character they displayed so strongly tonight is f*ckin fantastic – very exciting.

  18. @MrNot4saken

    Lines
    JJ – Tage – Tuch
    Benson – Cozens – Quinn
    Zucker – McLeod – Kulick
    Malenstyn – Lafferty – Aube Kubel

    Extras Krebs – Greenway

    Dahlin – Byram
    Power – Sam
    Jok – Clifton

    Bryson – Johnson – Gilbert which one

    UPL
    Levi

    Greenway needs to be sent to the press box , top line minutes and gets praised for 30 pts . He's had enough of a chance.

  21. @louscannon7493

    Lindy is still old school. He wants four distinct lines he can call on for various situations. He wants a clear #1goalie to rely on, and that's about it…Go Sabre's!

  25. @chelseahunter2176

    The speed from the bottom 6 guys was noticeable. I didn’t expect lots of goals from bottom 6 last year but now I can see them getting odd man rushes and break aways on occasion. A more dangerous bottom 6 will open up ice for the top 6 guys

  26. @USAwelsh

    That's what I love to see coming from Tage. He set the example for everyone else, in a very fine way.

  27. @christopherharte4741

    Congratulations you beat the ahl affiliate to the penguins the wilkes/barre Scranton baby pensπŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

  28. @newsfrombelow

    Tuch pass was forehand not backhand. Peterka beat the goalie glove side not his blocker. Kinda kills your mojo when you get simple stuff backwards

  29. @newsfrombelow

    Lindy just coached Jersey. Come on man. They were called the Flying Lindy's and all he's talked about is playing faster while being more aggressive on the puck battles. Nothing he's said or done would indicate boring defensive hockey.

  30. @DylansCozen

    Only thing I disagree on is only have greenway out of the lineup from the starting NHL lineup. Mcleod and Zucker as well. I predict Krebs line all come out for those 3.
