Dustin Tokarski has given a boost to Sabres’ play in the crease

‘While there have been some questionable goals allowed, Tokarski hasn’t let them linger and has calmed down in the crease considerably in recent games. Playing three games in four days, including a back-to-back against Pittsburgh, was no easy feat, and the 5-foot-11 Tokarski handled it brilliantly.’

‘Hall is playing on the second line with center David Krejci and winger Craig Smith. His mandate from the club was clear: Come in and be a complementary player.’

Travis Yost’s Sabre Metrics: What numbers show about improvement under Don Granato

‘The organization will need more time to evaluate Granato. The team’s playing better, and the front office knows they have some heavy lifting to do to repair the lineup. And not everything has been great – the power play has just four goals under Granato, and the team is 6-8-3 since the transition.’

‘“His work ethic has been fabulous this year, the way he goes about every day,” Appert said on a Zoom call Monday. “He really approaches things like a pro now.”’

Sabres goalie Dustin Tokarski named NHL’s First Star of Week

‘Overall, Tokarski has compiled a 2-5-2 record with a 3.15 goals-against average and a .914 save percentage in nine games this season. He hadn’t played in the NHL since 2016 before last month.’

Notebook: Bruins could have their hands full with Sabres

‘Not counting Eichel, the Sabres have seven top 10 picks in their lineup, some acquired in trades, others from their own years of futility. But what may be more important than the untapped talent level, the Sabres’ compete level has been raised. In the loss in Boston last week, the Sabres lost both the war and the battles (Matt Irwin and Tage Thompson taking one-sided beatings from Nick Ritchie and Kevan Miller), but the main point is that they showed up for both. That has not always been the case.’

Dustin Tokarski named ‘First Star’ of Week in NHL

‘With all the Sabres’ injuries in net, it’s doubly impressive that Tokarski put up the numbers he did, playing four games in six nights. He’ll likely continue to play the majority of the games until the Sabres get healthier.’
