| Post subject: | My take on tonight Sabres-Leafs game |
This is my take on watching the Sabres-Leafs game tonight in Toronto. I know it's only one game and you can't base everything off one game but this is what I seen tonight. You can agree or disagree but just what I took from the game tonight. Dennis Persson- is a total bust, this guy will never make the sabres. Seemed like he got beat time and time again. Mike Weber-I know it's only one game but if he continue's to play like he did tonight will be the odd man out. Chris Butler- Had a mediocre game at best and looked like he did last year. Zach Kassian- He had a so-so game. Nothing like he did in the first preseason game. Drew Stafford-played well and had a goal and two assists. He must be motivated because it's his contract year. Nathan Gerbe- Two goals tonight-one on a penalty shot. The guy will play in the NHL if not for us than for some team. That's for all you Gerbe haters! Luke Adam- He didn't play bad but didn't play great. He needs at least one full season in Portland to hone his game. Mark Mancari- Well if you watched him the last couple of seasons he looked the same. The guy passes the puck really well and has a hard shot only problem he has is his skating is sub-par and doesn't use his body enough. |

Mancari - He sucks at the point. For the past two years he's been working the point on the powerplay and he hits the shin pads of the pker like 2 feet away everytime. A hard shot means shit if you can't get it on net or create space for yourself to let go that shot... |

Pominville can at least hit the glass behind the net sometimes. |

Butler, Adam, and Persson looked like hell, imo. Kassian didn't make any mistakes that I noticed, and I'm perfectly okay with that. He played hard, made some really good plays (or with good intent; passes that were intended for a guy that maybe missed the pass, one coming from behind the net comes to mind), and he's got a good presence. |

The other day when that shit about Butler doing better this season was on facebook I wrote that he sucked....to which I was told how much penis I like to put in my mouth. I don't know how they knew that, but the point is that I still think he sucks. |

The coaches are analyzing these players off a lot more information than we are. They also aren't jumping to conclusions after seeing 60 minutes of hockey. |

My main point is that it is just the preseason and it is what it is. No use getting too upset or excited by anything you see. Meh. |

I know it's preseason and that's why I said up top that you can't gauge everything from just one game but Stafford is a regular and Gerbe will probably be fulltime this year as well. It was just my take on a few players after watching the game last night. |

He needs at least one full season in Portland to hone his game. It is impossible to determine that Persson is a bust or that Adam needs a full season in Portland based on the performance of a single game. That's my only point. |

We don't see what the coaches do in practice either and training camps. I mean I believe fully Adam will be in Portland just like he most likely should be, Kassian will probably be given the rest of the preseason games and maybe a few NHL games before getting sent back. Weber will probably be given his shot too, since we are carrying 8 defensemen this year? It's Butler, Sekera, or Weber. |

My impression? Leafs played their starting D and most starting forwards. The Sabres iced the Pirates and some regulars. The only thing unexpected about last night was that the Sabres hung four on the Leafs starting D. |
