I assure you, he does not. One of his biggest weaknesses is his wonky footwork and he constantly over extends or pushes too hard and puts himself in a bad position. He’s the third stringer for a reason.
@@buttkick22 UPL had an interview today after the game and has said he has been working on his footwork all off-season and is trying to stay in the net more, that his biggest problem before was positioning / over-extending / throwing himself out of the play / net like your saying. He looked good in this game, big boy just needs to stay in the net like tonight and he will do fine, Remember he hasn't even played an entire season worth of games yet and is still only 24 years old so he can definitely still improve, and if this game is any indication...
@@buttkick22he isn’t even 25 yet, give him time. Goalies usually take a little longer to develop, he looked pretty great tonight, so hopefully he can continue the momentum
@@buttkick22 I’m a Leafs fan so I wouldn’t know as well as you. I was watching the highlights to see how Buffalo is this year. He looked really good this game. Good luck this year
@@JoshDragRace0688 I hope he does. But he did slide out of the net and completely overplay a simple wrap around and severe angle backhand shot twice but he got away with it because the sabres did this weird thing where the forwards actually collapsed down low and played defense. Not saying it wasn’t a good game for him but minus three chances, everything was pretty routine so he should have had that shutout. Most shots were from way outside, full view of the puck, and hit him in the chest. No softees like he did for the crucial 4th goal of the last game when it was tied 3-3. Sabres were also blocking a ton of shots and colorado was awful. I was more impressed and happy with the team actually committing to team defense. At the very least, it will help his confidence. But I’m not gonna just forget that he was groomed to be a starter with levi this year and was so bad in preseason that comrie stole his job. That’s just silly. Preseason was only a few weeks ago. One game isn’t going to override that. But hopefully the team plays well and he gets on a hot streak. Good way to showcase him for trade bait. Hopefully Olofsson too. They aren’t making the playoffs this year since management decided to hold off on any big trade or signings and have almost the same exact team. But i understand why. Players like okposo, girgs, olofsson, jost etc are gone and the cap is going up. The sabres will have 35mill to play with to actually address their glaring holes. Then, it’s playoffs for sure. And for the next while too. Which is long overdue and exciting. Just gotta wait one more year…
If the sabres can get that kind of goal keeping consistently they’ll. be in the playoffs. Not sure, however, that Samuelson deserve to be in the league.
Колорадо в первом периоде превосходил во всем, но шайба не шла в ворота, зато у Баффало с реализацией моментов было гораздо лучше. Ох накидают злые "лавины" следующему сопернику - Сент-Луису полную авоську шайб, и Биннингтон не спасет.
Слова фаната Колорадо, и не более того. 😅 Посмотри статистику матча, , Баффало выиграл, потому что играли лучше по ходу матча. И в первом периоде 11 - 6 по броскам в пользу Сейбрс.
@@eggrolllSabres have the longest active playoff series win drought at 17 years, the longest streak of missing the playoffs in NHL history (12 at this time), and they have been irrelevant for most of their 54 year history.
@@nathanhoward3341 i'm just trying to figure out what you exactly mean ? i'm a penguins fan LOL ! don't know what you mean by haven't hoisted a cup yet
@sportsnet how do you not show the push from behind on Makar and MacKinnon’s misconduct penalty? These highlight packages are supposed to tell the story of the game and you omit two very significant points to this game? Seriously why do you not show these aspects of this game?
@@perrinayebarraexactly!! These types of hits happen multiple times every game. Just because its a star player doesn't make it a penalty all of a sudden. Mckinnon is such a baby sometimes. He needs another round of anger management.
Всё-таки Баффало - интересная команда. Ни один игрок Колорадо, самой дисциплинированной команды в НХЛ, не остался без опеки в этом матче, вратарь с хорошей и продуктивной реакцией, ребята заряжены на результат. Правда, самый дорогой игрок в этой команде, Скиннер, был в этом матче не остриём, а фундаментом. Что для дорогого игрока довольно странно...
