Me that was bragging Holtby the other day, he now has a .842 SV%.

Just read my flair and it’ll make perfect sense.

Your main takeaway: YOU DO NOT SCRATCH THE KING OF ROCK AND ROLL.

Honestly Dallas were pretty garbage too. Not only Holtby's fault this time.

Bobcat’s Post Game Notes, Game 6

Jackets win 4-1 over the Dallas Stars.

-We’re now 4-2-0 to start the season. I don’t think anyone expected this. We’re still likely finishing last in the division since the Metro is a bloodbath but hey, what can ya do?

-Greg “Hassle” Hoffmann with his first NHL goal!

-Oliver Bjorkstrand has 9 points in 6 games. Holy cow.

-Remember what I said earlier about how they shouldn’t let me down? Well, they didn’t. Yay.

The sabres are a wagon early, getting 9 of their first 12 available points. And 3 of 4 vs the B's and Tampa so that's interesting. But this can't be very sustainable unless Granato is the #1 coach in the NHL, which he could be...

Despite the loss I felt the leafs looked much better than they did last week.

Canes defense and Staal saved 3 prime opportunities for Tavares, Ritchie and Kerfoot.

One mistake by Keefe led to a Canes goal but the rest were almost unsavable. The 3rd was stoppable and a goalie mistake but thats ok. If they can build off the momentum from this game and play even harder they will start winning again

One thing. Get Rielly the **** off unit 1 and put Sandin on that unit thanks.

That said the PK has been excellent thank you Dean Chynoweth

Do you guys really want Arizona to draft Shane Wright?

Yep, he did better than Campbell and Holtby who i both chose over him, Merz had been the most consistent but i thought Dallas was better than CBJ. I apparently don’t know my team enough

Hey now, Tampa is still solidly in Wright contention.

So how long does it take before we rethink our opinion on the Sabres? They’re 4-1-1 with a +8 goal differential, even though they’re without Mittelstadt and Dahlin only has 2 assists. And they still have yet to get any assets in return for Eichel.

Anderson and Tokarski’s save percentages likely aren’t sustainable, but this team could be half decent. If the team continues to work really well together and Kyle Okposo turns back the clock, this team could finish as high as 20th.

Absolutely. Out of the expected bad teams, they’d probably be my 2nd choice after Seattle.

I mean they have phenomenal jerseys and nothing to dislike other than a terrible owner. But that doesn’t affect how I cheer for Ottawa or the Rangers.

They spent a lot of time pinned in their own zone tonight, so I wouldn't call them great, but they're certainly not bad. Anderson has seemingly shed a decade of wear though.
