Panthers @ Sabres Game Highlights
Paul Maurice, two of the top five wingest coaches of all time. Our opening face off presented by Runes to Go. Sam Bennett’s line against the top line for Buffalo. That’s got the young Benson along with Thompson on the wings and Koulique at center. And right off the bat, we get a call here and Sam Bennett. Little bit slow there getting up. He’s okay. A low hit 9 seconds into the game. That’s the young Benson. Yeah, they’re really high in this player, but he takes a penalty. 9 seconds into the first period. There’s Bennett takes the puck, tries to tiptoe around the Buffalo defender. And when they finally get on the ice, we’ll keep an eye on Jonah Gajivic and big Mason Gearson for Buffalo in the lineup today. They had little chat out at center ice during warm-up. Now 32 years old, Alex Ryan. Forsling sends it into the saver zone. Benson trying to play it. Here’s Bolinskus to hold it in. Work behind the net to Samson and the Savers have an out. Koulique over the line. Drops it off for Benson. Here’s Power shooting saveki. Penalty coming up on the Panthers. Delayed call. That shot hit the outside of the net from Thompson. Kulie centers. Thompson fires again. He has gone. And now we get the whistle. Special teams dominated game early on. Here’s Thompson with it. The wrist shot. Score. It deflects in and Buffalo’s got a one- nothing lead. I think it was Dolan that got the a stick on that puck, but as we mentioned about Cage Thompson, he will fire that puck. He leads the pan or the the Sabres in shots on goal. He only got one, but he just puts that puck on the net. Comes in here right at the sideboards and out in front right off the shin pad and the stick of Dolan. Clears to center. Turned back the other way by now. Trickles over the Panther line. Gearson takes a hit from Greer. Look out. Gearson goes back at Greer. Greeren another hit on Bolinskis and Gajivic has possession. Malenstein ran him. Cunning with a hit on Byum. It’s getting physical now. Mika and Malenstein back out at center ice going out. He’ll lift to center. Quickly gloved down by Petri. Blocked away on the shooting attempt. Quinn stick handles to the net. fell down. Puck free in the offensive zone for Pal. Big slap shot now off the post. Oh, Zucker had a look. Babski out to make the save. Wow. We have seen some incredible athleticism from Sergey Babroski. You’re going to see how quick he is. Watch this shot. He goes off and then right to him. And look at Babroski comes diving across with the glove hand. Sent the other way. AJ Greer down the wing shooting. Lion makes the save. Greer looking for the rebound, but Quinn has it for Buffalo. And now a whistle in behind the play. Not quite sure why they blew the whistle on that one. I guess there’s going to be a penalty called Yuffalo too many men on the ice. Oh, Buffalo too many men on the ice. Samuskevich was right on the doorstep. Reinhardt now centers. It’s Verhigi in the slot shooting. That’s blocked. Picked up by Petri. The shot blocked again. Samoskevich at the circle. Fires. Saved by Lion. Londell. Hit down by Samuelson. And it’s all the way down the ice. Panthers back in over the line. Here comes Ecklad moving, setting up Rodriguez for the shot. It’s off the crossbar. Power plays over. Marian fires. Lion makes the stop. Sabres right now playing with five defenseman. Bryson has left the game. Forsling works along the board. Shovels it out in front. Thompson. Good hit by Bennett. Panthers get the takeaway. now working the wall, but Thompson stayed with it. He’ll chip it out. It will be icing. Puck held in by Benson. Owen power for Samuelson. There’s a shot wide. Oh, it went right through. Babski knew exactly where that puck was and just paddled it away. Thompson holds down low. Eklad knocked it free and Reinhardt does the rest. Terrific D by Ecklad. Reinhardt. Reinhardt centers. Verhagy with a chance. Backhander. Stopped. Verhaggy again. Gives to Bennett. Stolen by Benson. Benson on the move. Quinn goes to the net in front. Forsling with a great play. Denied a twoon-one opportunity in the Panther zone here. Nikola got to it. Now it’s out. Bennett tries to catch up to it. Takes on Pop in the face and no call. No icing here. Babroski will pop out to play this puck. Leaves for Mika. He gets tripped up. That’s a penalty. And that’s just a silly one by Krebs deep in the Panther zone. Cats will just try to hang on to this puck. They get the extra skater on the ice and they’ll go for one rush here on the delayed penalty. It’s Rodriguez right up the middle and the pass too much for Bhagat. There’s the whistle. Seen a lot of that in the National Hockey League these days because of the aggressive forchecking by teams. The offensive zone penalty. And here’s the no call on Bennett and he takes a elbow to the face where that puck is going to bounce. Reinhardt for Lundell over to Verhagi. They’ll send that around the bullets. Sam Reinhardt let it go through Samoskevich. Hard battle there. Mackey wins the battle. Reinhardt down low. Samuelson with a big hit on him. Samuskevich right in front. Try to jam it home. Another shot attempt for Mackie Samuskevich. Oh, look out. Sabres work it free. Alex Tuck tripped up by Lundell. He would have been all alone. Buffalo. They came together back in the first period. Gloves stayed on and they’ll stay on here. Oh, hard battle there. Mikola and Kak. And they’re both shaken up. Penalty called. And now other players jump in. But yeah, they’re both down. There’s Gearson again for Buffalo. No, Mik is trying to shake it off. And I think this penalty is going to go against Michel. He was draped all over his man there. And the officials still trying to separate everybody. Couple of sabers. Jones with a wrist shot wide. Londell to Reinhardt behind the net. Reinhardt in front. Lion on the glove in the offensive zone. You know, it just seems like it’s just a a theme that’s just not in the Panthers favor where it’s one and done. Here they come now. Forsling moves in, shoots. Lion with a big save rebound and it just missed. Sent down in front and tipped away. Another chance off the rush there for the Panthers. And that may have been their best of the game. And here they come again. Samuskevich gliding in, holding and shooting. And Lion makes the save. Cunns after it for the Panthers. He gets hit by Mloud down low. That’s clear to center. Greer back to pick it up off Gajovich’s stick and now it’s Don breaking in. Shot blocked by Elad. Dome gets it right back. Centering feed has a man and Babski stones Dalene. Both goalenders with big stops right in front here in the second. Dalene weaving at center ice. He shoots in. Babroski quickly out to play it. around the boards and out to center. Dalene again floats it down the boards. Now Dene at the point gives to Thompson. Penalty coming up. This will be on the Panthers. Oh, and Marian is all over Dalene. Thompson jumps Marian. Well, Marian, he took he took a dirty hit. from Darlene about 10 seconds before this all happened. And then when he went right back as Darwin came close to him, that’s all it took. Marian said had enough and just dropped the gloves. Darene’s had a few of those over the years against the Panthers. And for Brad Marshan to be that hot, you know, it had to be a bad one. Marshan still trying to get it dully. There’ll be a penalty on the Sabres as well as this thing heats up. Sam Reinhardt’s over there and he doesn’t argue much, but he’s had some words for the referee in this situation. Reinhardt Still a one- nothing lead for Buffalo midway through. The mental aspect of this, keeping his his game sharp, giving his team a chance to win a game. Benson blocked away by Londell. Now a chance and they score. It’s Done again. Second time today. Yeah, that traffic around the Panthers net and the Sabres just blow throw that puck anywhere’s near the net and Josh Jo do Dome again. Watch the puck. The Panthers trying to get back. They get three players caught behind the goal line and then a quick centering pass. You see Don right there uncovered. each team with a dozen block shots in the game. Marian hearing it from the crowd gets to center taken back by Tuck Lundell and now Forsland, but they couldn’t get out with possession. Krebs for Tuck out in front. Power scores. It’s three nothing. This play started way back in the neutral zone when the Panthers failed to connect. We’re coming through the neutral zone and Buffalo takes over. So there’s the long pass to start it off. Excuse me. Now Panthers going to get a little eye lock. They get too many men over on that one side. And then as you see over on the right side, wide open man. That’s power coming in. Perfect feed. Final minute of the second period. Sponsored by Anajar and Lavine. Folinskus taps ahead. Marian at center. Hit by Tuck. Marian. Every time he touches the puck, he’s hearing it from the Buffalo fans. And that didn’t start today, folks. That’s been going on for quite a few years. In behind, here’s Marian looking in front. Off the bench, Jones on the loose puck. Jones carries, gets by Don. Seth Jones to the net on the backhand save and then he’s hit into the goalender. Everybody will separate. Loin’s tied up the other way. It’s Krabs and what a save by Babski. Play continues with a fight going on in the Buffalo zone. We finally get the whistle. Yeah, and it’s four sabers on one Panther and that’s Anton Lundell with a play was all the way down in the Panther zone. Loan was there. Lloyd Serena was there as well. Lendell came back to help his teammate. Here’s the scoring chance. Jones drives to the net. Then he’s knocked down. There’s a hit. There’s a cross check. And back the other way. Oh well. Sergey Sergey Babroski makes a big save when everybody was focusing back the other way. Here’s how it all started. Then Loyster in all tied up with his man. They rrestle to the ground and then a couple more savers come over and then Glendell arrives on the scene. Penalties will be called both ways. 27 both miners for roughing. Florida 23 minor play for roughing. They got power play Florida. Now we know what he meant. He got it the other way. It was 27 for Florida, 23 for Buffalo, not the other way around. So Don’s in the box as well where Hegy was not on the ice. So they meant Los Tina and Samuelson slash drives. You see Gearson also in the penalty box. He had that misconduct 10-minute and Nico Mika will not return to the game for the Panthers. He left during the second period. Samoskevich. Nice move and he shoots. Blocked away by Timmons. Reinhardt gets after it. Here’s Landell. Back for Jones. He’s got Samoskevich. The shot deflected. Save. Rebound in front. Bhagi is stopped right at the net. It was there. Samoskevich again. Jones with a wristster. That goes wide. Big car to Samoskevich. Jones in the slot shooting. Blocked away to pick it up and he will shoot in. But you know these Panther players, including the ones on the ice, they’ve been through all the playoff wars over the years. Well, Verhaggy runs into the official in behind the net. And I’m thinking the same thing when it’s not going well. It’s strange things happen. Over to the bench. He’s okay. Here’s Reinhardt shooting wide. Forsling steps in. Now Verhagy stayed on loose at the net. That’s put wide and then Reinhardt got upended. Verhagy again with a shot. Lion with the glove. Timmons now turns and shoots. Deflected and then sent on goal of Babski with a couple of beauties and then the wraparound doesn’t go from Benson. Benson again. Timmons again. Babski one more time. Oh, the Panthers continue to get some great goending. Lion had that one skip off his glove between Terasov and Babroski. Since the start of the season, they have been outstanding. Londell out in front of the net now. Bennett will shoot. Blocked away. Jones holds it in the zone. Samuskevich saved by Lion. Reinhardt on the rebound. It’s Mackey again feeding Jones. He shoots. That goes high. Oh, they’re getting some great looks on this power play. Dalene worked it free. Jones holds it in. Now taken and cleared. And the power play is done. Back to five on five. Reinhardt shoots that went wide. Panthers shoot in. Lion lays it out for Power. No one Power got his first goal of the season this afternoon. The Golden made it three nothing. Loster puts it out in front. Redirected wide by Jones. Taken away by Koulie. Samoskevich steps in on him. Buffalo gets it right back. Koulie for Quinn. Yet Blad is there. Rodriguez the big hit. Byum now over to Samuelson. A rare shot attempt by the big defenseman out of Western Michigan is swallowed up by Babski. And now a little action after the whistle. Oh, and Bolinskus and Koulie really going at it. Rodriguez jammed up there with Benson. And then for the Panthers, a couple of days to regroup before the big night. And you know, the Cats will be ready. They want to see Brad Marsh go back to Boston with success. But this afternoon, the success to the Sabres. Three nothing the final.

“Thompson Jumps marchand”
Marchand got 2 min for a trip, sucker punch, pulling the helmet of his opponent and destroying that helmet in the box 😂 how bad do the refs want Florida to win
Your game highlights including the rough stuff and hits is exactly what I’ve been waiting for years. Keep them coming. It’s way better than the highlights sportsnet and NHL put out.
3-0 didn’t expect that from Florida 😐
I love how Ekblad take himself out of play and totally compromises goalie for 3rd goal
I did it my way!!!
This is the Florida 🐆 Panthers and we do it our way…what ever the hell way we want 😂
Be careful 🐆 and do it your way
Sam Bennett “ we do what ever the Phuc we want”
Good luck 🍀👍🏽 Sam Bennett and Florida Panthers 🐆
Love when injury prone Thachuk brothers are back
🖕🏽you
took them 9 seconds to start flopping
Since that mess should result in at least a game for the rat… I imagine dahlin will be fined and suspended multiple games.
Keep up the highlights! So much better than the NHL's version
Panthers must be completely depleted defensively if they put Jeff Petry on the power play. Guy has hands of spaghetti.
Dude, how can the refs always call against the panthers?
Someone is eventually going to put PED Ekblad on his ass for good and no one but the folks in the "Department of Player Safety" are going to miss him. That goes for Bennet too.
Buffalo certainly has the panthers number
Dhalin did nothing wrong, other than going easy on the rat.
9:30 Marchand gets hit with a "dirty hit" Yeah I'm ok with everyone hacking and cheapshotting the king of slew foots who likes to steal nicknames. F Marchand and whatever team he plays on. Even Bergeron in Boston got tired of defending his antics. Notice he only goes after Europeans that dont have a history of sticking up for themselves ? Frog POS
Typical big nose rat jumping non fighters 😂😂 dahlin would feed Marchand his dinner that’s why he jumped
Is this the Florida broadcast, interesting interpretation of events
