Overall good game, but by far the worst line was Tuch/Thompson/Doan for most of the game. Even strength they had 2 scoring chance for, 7 allowed. Their shots for/against, Fenwick, Corsi, Expected goals for/against....all were awful. McLeod, Zucker, Quinn by far the best line of the night in terms of analytics. Dahlin has the best analytics of all D-men on the game. https://www.naturalstattrick.com/game.php?season=20252026&game=20347&view=limited

So nice to have Benson back in the lineup. Doesn’t matter who he plays with or in what situations, he plays the game the right way and finds ways to contribute. I think his energy is infectious, too.

Ok because they said he was injured on the NHL Network broadcast

That this how the Sabres should play every game. I really like Timmins. He reminds me every game recently of Toni Tydman.

Tage 1 goal in the first 7 games... 11 in his last 15 games

“Beating Carolina 4-1 might seem good, but…” -perreaultforever

Of course... the game that I couldn't see. Oh well, if they get embarrassed by Pittsburgh blame me ...I'll be watching! Keep the streak alive...

He might. Often times on the official scoresheet and NHL.com, they list goals as 'unassisted' for a few minutes before adding the assists. Its like they want to get the goal scorer up as soon as possible, and iron out the details a few minutes later.

Why does Benson not get an assist on Tage goal? I’ll have to check replays

Credit where it’s due. UPL played well today.

4-1 win just like everyone expected. Nice win, keep it going. On to the next one.

Mental preparation, leadership, culture. We got Zucker back and now Benson - that helps.

Shutdown Aho - check PP goal - check Quinner goal scored & active in the offensive zone - check ENG - check Sammy - +2, 3 registered hits - all solid - check showcase UPL for desperate team - check

Can anyone make sense of beating the 3 good to great teams and losing to the bad one?

We will be down 4-0 in the 1st period in Pittsburgh on Wednesday.

Just texted my brother about that...really excited for Wednesday's game with a streak on the line.

Big game Wed against Pittsburgh. For me personally, growing up I always looked forward to any games the day before Thanksgiving or the games on New years eve. The Wed before Thanksgiving, it was a long weekend from school (now sometimes a long-ish weekend from work), that a win that night just 'feels' better than most other nights.

Outstanding performance by all involved. Congrats Sabres!

3-1 home-stand. They lose the alleged easy game. Weeksie giving the Sabres some props. UPL came up big. Really good game by the Quinn-McLoed-Zucker line tonight. Team effort and well done.

That's a win. Could this be the turning point for the season, winning two in a row, and against arguably the best team in the NHL? As has been for years, their biggest nemesis now is consistency, maintaining this over an extended stretch, with good goaltending. Games like the last two make us look like we can beat anyone right now. Oh no! UPL is good now - now what do we do? lol

Perfect time to trade UPL!
