Seriously? Look harder at the two shorties.

What he needs is time in Rochester. Same reason we are keeping Peterka and Quinn down on the farm. But with his contract is that even a possibility? Granato should at least sit him down a game or two.

I think Dahlin "takes his eyes off the ball" so to speak. He's like the WR who starts thinking about what cut he's going to make before securing the ball. So many errors involve the puck rolling off his blade. Of course we can point at the horrendous gaffes that lead to goals, but Dahlin is also guilty of misplaying the puck and ending an attack in the offensive zone, or derailing a rush forcing the Sabres to come back and reset. A bad pass, the puck rolling off his stick and going outside the blue line. Those might not end up in breakaways going the other way but they do blow up a Sabres offensive possession. I don't understand why he hasn't been sat down. If it were any other player they'd be in Rochester by now.

It was still the largest-looking crowd of the season.

Actually there were over 10K (tickets distributed.)

Not like Dahlin had anything to do with the result.

Dahlin, the possession killer.

Kraken are getting tired. They are in prevent mode. Here's our opening.

Couple times tonight Kraken get in close while the rest of the team are watching somewhere between the circles. Ponderous.

Can we decline the penalty?

Or "up to his nuts."

I honestly don't see what is so special about him? Good D man? No. Puck handler? No. Scorer? A little. Is it those dekes he makes once in a while?

We have a Murray graphic?

I get how you don't want to ruin his confidence. But he's really hurting the team. If there is no consequence for plays like that, you're letting the rest of the team down.

Why do we fall so much?

Fellas?? More like one fellow.

Tell me again how were being too harsh on Rasmus?

Our passing is still bad.

I think Don needs to sit him one game.

Toker didn't give the puck away.

Sorry. Holiday has me messed up.

If we had gotten two points from the Ranger and Leafs games, we'd be at .500 point%

Not a bad crowd for a Monday. I'll bet a quarter of them are from Canada. Lower bowl very full.

It is? I though Grubauer was rated the worst starting keeper in the NHL?

The preseason consensus was the Sabres were a 5-win team. What goalie is going to sign up for that?
