Good news, we have 10th after 10 games having started 0-3
Bad news is we should have 12 pts at least

That sucked, got a point but you need to get 2 to really get places.

They all looked slow and the puck kept jumping around like crazy

Dahlin is a lefty, Thompson is rather athletic and Muel must watch/know about Dak Prescott lol

Sabres played well and deserves 2 points, but when your goalie decides to let in a softie to tie it in the 3rd and then the only shot in OT you aren't going to get 2 points.
Power played good most of the night but fumbled it when it mattered which really sucks.
Quinn was great but tried to give Thompson a 3rd instead of using his high tier shot
Dahlin couldn't get his rangefinder working
UPL needs to make that save on Tavares; in OT your goalie has to give you at least 1 mulligan; the Leafs goalie gave them one.
3 out of 4 ain't bad though, just keep working and piling up points.

That was a bad goal and I feel for the Sabres players because they had done great containing the Leafs.

If it had been Knies taking out Lyon, I'd want the Benson interference called, too.
The good thing is the Sabres tied it up already anyway.
Tuch's return from the misconduct is helpful.
I just don’t trust they would of -
Twice now we’ve been called for offside when I firmly disagree with the call today.
That screen on Bo’s goal was quite literally a wall

UPL makes me nervous every shot,

Absolutely asinine, so absolutely aggravating we only ever lose to that BS
-
OEL boarded Benson from behind, no call; they’re letting Toronto play dirty and even awarded them for it

Thats bull that we get penalized for protecting our guy and now we lose Tuch for 17min

Can we talk about Mule briefly? The Mule we've seen the past several games can keep his contract and his job for as long as he keeps playing that way.
He's playing like the guy who got called up years ago; a bit less hit happy but solid defensively and clearing pucks to better puck movers.

I love the net front presence we've had thus far. After those 3 garbage games to start they have legitimately looked pretty good

5v3 PPs seem to be a problem for our guys; they get all dinner plate sized eyes with the space for Thompson shots and forget that their PP has been more successful just shooting and scrumming.

He got a taste of AHL pro hockey and will be all the better for it

Well that's plain odd

NHL gave Doan's goal Wednesday to Tuch 2 days after the game. That's really weird

On the broadcast they mentioned that Colten's brother is Matt and they cheered for the Sabres because of that.
Someone else heard that too, right?
I can confirm that, it was genuinely rather hilarious to hear because I would of done something similar if some player had my name

Positives:
- Legit victories that weren't just flukey bounces and legitimate 50+ minute efforts
- Doan and Benson have helped drag some borderline players into the net front battle crew
- Goaltending, minus UPL, has been solid
- After an atrocious 0-3 to start the year we've bounced back with 4-1-2 including a shutout of the defending champs (yes I know they are banged up)
- Timmons has been a hugely positive impact on the defensive play who brings what we had all hoped Clifton might bring (Clifton would get too hit happy and try to jump into offensive plays too much for a defensive stalwart)
- Muel has reverted to the guy we all loved when he came up from Rochester
Negatives:
- Thompson has had a rough start to the year, thankfully he seems to be getting shots so its not 911 emergency levels
- 4-4-2 is Average as a record, technically 5-3-2 is the bare minimum for a playoff pace when broken down to 10 game segments with 2 bonus games
- OT looks impotent
- UPL came back early, then arguably lost us the Toronto game
- Team still has a tendency to go into lulls where 3/4th the team plays on power saving mode
- Injuries have yet again stabbed this team in the side; losing Norris in 1 game plus Dansforth and Kozak who have given solid depth hurt this team as a whole
???:
- Power has played better as a whole with Timmons as his partner but still fails far to often when physical prowess/size is needed
- Dahlin's started ok; he looks somewhat distracted and or distant (honestly for understandable reasons) but is still a Top 4 D man with this handicap
- AHL call-ups have been a mixed bag, happy Dunne scored though
