Puck Kicks are so complicated. If you sat me down and asked me to write out, to the best of my understanding, the National Hockey League rule book, the section for “Kicked Pucks” would look something like this.
KICKED PUCK RULES! IMPORTANT!
1. You can’t just be up there and just doin’ kicks like that.
1a. Kicking pucks is when you
1b. Okay well listen. Kicking pucks is when you kick the
1c. Let me start over
1c-a. The player is not allowed to do a motion to the, uh, goalie, that scores the goal from doing, you know, just trying to kick the puck. You can’t do that.
1c-b. Once the player about to shoot, he can’t be over here and say to the goalie, like, “I’m gonna kick it! I’m gonna kick the puck! You better watch your butt!” and then just be like kicking it.
1c-b(1). Like, if you’re about to shoot and then kick, you have to still shoot. You cannot not shoot to kick. Does that make any sense?
1c-b(2). You gotta be, not distinctly kicking the puck, and then, until you just don’t kick it.
1c-b(2)-a. Okay, well, you can have the puck down here, like this, but then there’s the kick you gotta think about.
1c-b(2)-b. Scott Norwood was a kicker for the Bills. I hope he is doing alright ever since that wide right kick.
1c-b(2)-b(i). His range kinda sucked, maybe we should’ve had a guy who could kick farther than 40 yards.
1c-b(2)-b(ii). Haha remember when Dan Carpenter was our kicker and hit his nose with his helmet.
1c-b(3). Okay seriously though. A kick is when the player makes a movement that, as determined by, when you distinctly do a kick involving the puck on the ice of
2. Do not kick pucks please.
thank you andy 🥲
One. More. Year. One. More. Year.
Very happy the boys brought home the win for Andy. Very happy the guys didn’t lose because of a kicked goal. Still within shot of the Penguins within the conference. A good night.
Sorry guys, it was fate for us to not make the playoffs. We had to give Anderson this final game OT win against Ottawa this year.
That’s a classy reception for Anderson.
Sabres should get to atleast 90 points this season.
This team knows how to show up in the big moments
WE DID IT FOR JOHNNY SINS…I MEAN ANDY!!
If we won that devils game 😢😢😢😢
Big props to the Senators. That was super classy.
Casey « Fuck Your OT » Mittlestud
I love this team and love this city
Andy gets the W. 41 wins. Mittlestud in OT like last year. Sens giving props. It’s all good vibes here 🥲🥲
Classy ending for Andy. Glad he was able to finish against Ottawa. Real cool to see them all give him love even tho they lost tonight. Game will always be bigger than win/loses for those that play. Hopefully we bring Andy back as goalie coach or something.
Made me tear up. Such a special season. Such a special group. One incredibly special goaltender with an incredible career. We will miss you CA!
Mitts truthers are going to have a looong offseason trying to come up with someone to be a mean girl to.
Sabres keep finding a way to win the big, wholesome games. RJ night, Miller night, RJ’s Last Call, Andy’s last game. Vibes are still high!
Fuck I wish we could keep all 4 goalies. All of them seem like great people, great comraderie. Obviously Craig gets a nice retirement. Maybe Eric and UPL can get a 13’ trench coat?
What happened to Tage?
The feels
Classy for Ottawa to send him off!
The standing ovation and Sens staying out for Craigy had me on the verge of tears. Then they had to remind me about his wifes story on top of that.
Unnecessarily insane hot take: Mittelstadt wins the conn smythe if we win the cup with this core
Seriously though if anyone want to the game and doesn’t want the goathead T-shirt, please let me know.
What happened to tage?
I saw him scream “fuck” and walk down the tunnel before ot
I’m not crying, you’re crying.
Hell of a career by Andy retiring as an NHL goaltender at age 42. 🥲 I love this team.
anyone catch dahlin holding the boxes of swedish fish that a fan gave him lmfao
Sens fan here.
Had to pop in to say that display of love your team and fans at the game tonight showed for Andy was ♥♥♥♥.
Brought tears to my eyes as someone who rarely cries.
Not even upset we lost our last game of the season in OT, because that and one last win for Andy (a goal who is a legit dude and was so great for us for years) was the outcome, and he 100% deserved to go out on top.
That’s all!
Mannn I was really hoping we could go up to Buff and see those black and red beauties today, sadly not…
Y’all HAVE to bring em back next year, there’s no way this is a one year deal hopefully, they were too good ;;
That was pretty damn cool to watch for the last 15 mins or so. I don’t mean this to be insulting at all, but it feels like Anderson was the sherpa that gets us from the bottom of the valley to the base camp. He won’t be with us to get to the summit, but we needed him nonetheless for a big part of the journey.
I didn’t cry after the Mitts goal… I bawled my eyeballs out 😭
This team is gonna miss the playoffs by 1 point aren’t they? If they don’t get goalied by the devils they’re in the playoffs 😒 😤 🙄 😴 😑
What a send off for old Andy. Hell of a game boys!
I’ll miss you Andy
We got the help we needed in the standings just had to beat the devils I wanna cry man
this is officially a craig anderson upvote party, enjoy retirement king
At least we get one more Sabres game before the public sees five minutes of Canes/Islanders and hockey is banned forever
Just got back from the game. Awesome send-off for Anderson
Thank you Andy! Great win! Also, second season in a row where Mitts scored the OT winner in the final home game.
PHam in the postgame mentioned a previous recipient of the Rico not caring about it… Weren’t the only others to get it KO and Reino? Wtf is he talking about?
Who was saying casey could not shoot?
I shed a tear for Andy. More than one
