Power loafing around out there on the PP.

Dunne win

Zone entry in mid season form

Kesselring feels the stick at his side, pins it, and draws a penalty. Good work. But the PP looks… usual. No shots on goal for the first unit.

I'm in Albany and ifs blacked out. Tried using a VPN and it still doesn't work.

Agreed and Sam is an excellent comparison in the way he got knocked down. I guess I just don't think of Quinn as soft and avoiding contact. Maybe even in the same respect, that I never thought Sam was soft. I could be wrong, maybe he is. Hope not. We have it on.

I'm in Vegas, watching it now on ESPN+

Yeah, there is NO play by play...just two bone heads yaking. Oh how I miss RJ.

Kesselring steps into one and…. Right into the crest. He’ll fit in nicely.

How do you watch this out of market? ESPN app says it's blacked out.

I have to disagree. The color guy is constantly talking during the play by play. That's a serious NO NO in Hockey Broadcasting 101. I realize it preseason, but its super annoying regardless.

This broadcast team is pretty good

It’s preseason. I’m in the best posting shape of my life. But I’m gonna take it day by day and play it simple. It’s a marathon not a sprint.

I kind of feel bad that I don't care. Usually, I'll try to watch most of the preseason. I just don't have that same energy this year. They haven't fully broken me yet. Not enough changes to the failing roster of last year to give me hope for major improvements. Debbie Downer rant over. Enjoy the game for those who are watching!

Before the leg injuries, Quinn was like a young version of Reinhart regarding contact. He'd get knocked down a lot but wouldn't necessarily lose the puck and he was pretty good at forechecking to get it back (and then get knocked down again without losing it, and so on and so forth). But he was way easier to get away from the puck last season and he wasn't nearly as effective at getting it back. Will be interesting to see which version shows up this season and we get our 1st glimpse of it tonight.

Hockey is back!!! LFG!!! 😎

I never really thought about Quinn as one of the non physical players. Not that I'm disagreeing but I suppose I could have not paid enough attention to that, within the disappointment of his last season. I will disagree on moving out Power. It's not the time to do that yet. Bryson, I mean, it's not expected. He's just not that kind of player and he's a 14 min guy. Samuelsson, absolutely agree. He's the player I dislike the most on the team. I hope you're surprised that we're not as soft as you're expecting.

I often wonder why in the preseason coaches don’t agree on how many vets to play in a game. What good is it to ice an NHL roster vs a team of mainly AHL players.

Well the 2 things I am interested to see are in this game so worth a watch. Seeing if Power-Kesselring can be something and seeing what Doan actually is.

ESPN+

Well, whoever is in charge of the power play needs to do a lot better.

they let you pick 10 channels. you get to 'choose' 15 other premium channels ??

I'm guessing a VPN is the only way to watch if you live outside of Buffalo?
