Sabres 1st and 2nd goal were a thing of beauty absolutely a masterpiece

[@Zack24XB]

quick and precise passing between four players, beautiful teamwork

Whoa, Boston looking good man! It's tough playing the league leading Sabres. Bruins fans, at least you had a lead tonight, before giving up 7 that's SEVEN

[@bjarczyk]

As a Sabres fan, that was us playing good and not Boston playing bad. We actually played good team defense and played good relentless offense. In other words we played Lindy’s system correctly and forced Boston to have a bad game. Rob Ray touched on this as well.

[@velipulla3936]

Why you put down your own team?

[@fknloaded2162]

If you got seven goals there was at least a little Boston being bad, cmon man.

[@iam_ryanthelion]

@@nascarawesomesquid2456not a fan of Boston or Swayman but this game wasn’t really his fault, Sabres played like they are the #1 team in the league and The bruins D were non existent for to much of the game

He tries to cover the net but there are times when you beee to just focus on the puck and the hockey

[@kendiscoboy]

He couldn’t stop a beachball and yet again Bruins play catchup

[@NatPat-yj2or]

@@nascarawesomesquid2456 Um. no. You have no clue. If you haven't noticed, Ullmark has been out for half the season with injuries. Furthermore, the Bruins fans and management all love Ullmark and pained us to see Ullmark sitting on the bench all the time when he deserved to be a starting goalie. We all supported him, and we will always support Linus Ullmark in Boston. We wish him all the best. There is not one bit of regret by anyone for letting Ullmark go. Like I said, Ullmark is very injury prone. He is getting old. Swayman was the better of the two last year. Swayman is 10 years younger than Ullmark. It would of been so stupid to keep Ullmark and let Swayman go. Swayman may be having a terrible year, but this year is extremely bizarre, and we are all just waiting for it to be over. Most of us Bruins fans have already thrown in the towel for this year and we want to miss the playoffs because we all want Sweeney, Neely, Sacco, Kelly, and everyone in management and coaching to get their asses FIRED, except for Bob Essensa. We want half of this team GONE.

Sabres have good talent on this team, too bad they cannot play consist hockey.

[@mikeS-ow7lc]

They just need to play hard every night they take games and periods off it’s so frustrating

[@Pro8Entertainment]

at least we got a more or less consistent game this time haha, feel like most games they only show like 5-20 minutes how good they can be

[@Orto4956]

It’s because half of their good talent aren’t even old enough to drink. They need to let guys like Kulich, Benson, and Peterka actually develop instead of shipping them off in trades like they did with Reinhart.

[@jamesgoudreau1940]

Every time they get even a little momentum, they puke up a stinker like this. Hard to see this team making it out of round one, if they don't crap out of the playoffs all together. The Bruins are spending elite money on edge playoff contention.

[@theatheia]

Boston deserves this

[@Capo51]

Buffalo is a mystery team. They have lot of talent, but it gomes out only in spurts. Like in this game. 1st and 2nd goal were just out of hockey text book. Even better teams can' t do the same.

[@Orto4956]

Theres no mystery, they have undeveloped talent, which they’ve had in the forms of different players over the past 14 years. This current group with Peterka, Benson, Kulich, etcetera is arguably the best they’ve had in a long time. The problem is that they never give them actual time to develop, such as in the case of Reinhart, or just completely fail at doing so like in the case of Eichel. Lindy as a coach and player developer is extremely trustworthy, so if they just allow their young guys a chance to actually become star players within the Sabres organization, then thats when they can actually start making the playoffs again.

For the clueless out there...Bruins were playing without their top 3 d-men. Sway should definitely have had 2 of those, but the others were not his fault. He had AHL d-men in front of him.

There is something clearly something amiss in the Bruins organisation. SO many poor decisions both on and off the ice. Time for a clear out from the top down. Too may overpaid supposed big talents who are no better than average. We have some very promising youngsters mixed in there but they need real coaching and guidance from veterans. Marchand is an awful captain and he's done as a player.
