Those 3 feed off each other so well.

IF he returns (not a given) you find out if he's ready to turn over the reins. If he is, cool, give the C to Tuch. If he isn't cool with stepping back, then let him keep the letter. But he's talked about how there are leaders on this team. My expectation is he'll be cool with stepping back.

Could happen fairly often if he has to be paired with Bryson while Samuelsson is out.

Match it, how about they break it? Thompson, Tuch, Skinner, Cozens, Peterka, Quinn, and one of Kulich, Savoie, Dahlin, or Mittelstadt.

Nope 5 more wins ties it and any othe points beyond it put them at or above an NHL 0.500. For the 1st time since 2012.

Didn't he draw the penalty that set up the PP that saw Quinn decide not to take the easy shot while the PP was ending and instead buried the much more difficult midair rebound right after the PP ended?

Out chanced (13-11), out shot (29-28) and out scored (4-3) the Loafs in Loaf Land. F those guys.

And with that single win, the Sabres only need to climb over 1 other team whom they have a game in hand on to be right behind the Pens and Aisles. It ain't over until WE say it's over.

Care to expound upon that please?

Didnt need it tonight. Save it for a night they do need it.

6.

They needed that.

Yes!

@Thorny you had to ask for the explanation about the earlier Nylander post, didn't you. ;)

True, but can't immediately think of an occassion where the D were patient and just let the forward stay below the goal line in a place where he could do no damage (especially with them both taking away options for him).

So close by Dahlin.

The D actually weren't chasing behind the net there. Who knew they could actually PLAY defense on this team? Awesome.

Guess whoever said Murray likes to give up 4 goals was right.

A Tuch led team NEVER quits.

Tuch!

Cozens!

Friggin' Murray. Tage usually buries those.

Not a biggie.

Any of the other "big guns" for the Loafs would've gotten that shot on net and very possibly past Anderson. Nylander can always be counted on to not come through in the clutch. (And Marner is playoff disappearing act.)
