I expect Dallas to administer a beating to the Sabres tonight. I've seen them a few times recently and they are playing at a whole different level.

Indeed. But South Carolina looks like an absolute machine. Will be tough for Iowa to overcome.

Caitlin Clark with 18 in the first quarter. Switch to ABC.

Of course I truly hope Bryson is OK. On the other hand less Bryson is good for now.

Gotcha! Did not realize that.

I never thought about the dominant hand on top aspect of it. I guess as a basketball player who was striving to be as ambidextrous as possible (Short of shooting jump shots left handed) that logic wouldn’t have occurred to me. But I was mainly just a street hockey player. i always felt the naturalness of being right handed and shooting right due to the similarities of using the torso to generate torque and speed like one does in swinging a bat or a club. But again, I played a ton of organized baseball and no organized hockey.

Blake Wheeler, Dan Boyle

T shirts to the first 15,000 fans on Fan Appreciation night next Thursday. I wonder what they’ll do with the 7,000 left over?

Collins is just a camp body. Has nothing to do with Brown. More like a hedge on Vandemark really being ready to be the swing tackle.

To be fair, he has a nice side too.

Sometimes I wonder if signing Cozens and Thompson to those contracts will end badly. Then I glance at Pierre-Luc Dubois's contract with LA and feel like it's all good in Buffalo.

6'9" goalie named Cooper Black? That's a comic book character if I ever heard of one. Never seen him play but I don't care...get 'er dun Adams.

Chris Brown with the Buffalo Braves ball cap at a Sabres game. I hear ya but what’s sad is that makes them marginal.

Good stat padding game against a marginal opponent

I think Power wanted to apologize to Ovechkin for accidentally checking him

UPL tonight? Levi on the bench or playing meaningful games in Rochester? How can they best screw him up some more?

Not to defend Pegula in general… and at some point I think the fans need to hear from him… ‘But if my wife suffered what Kim did and I was faced with the prospect of the person I expected to be there long after I’m gone (my wife is quite a bit younger too, although not as much of a gap as the Pegula’s) basically no longer there with little prospect to ever come back (based on what little we know about her brain injuries), I can tell you I’d have a hard time leaving the house I’d be so distraught. As a billionaire sports team owner he probably has a higher standard to live up to compared to some internet schmuck like me, but I do believe this factor is a partial explanation for his silence on some things and lack of attendance at games.

On the right team he becomes a point per game annoying gnat of a player who everyone hates except that team’s fans who love him. On the Sabres, he’ll be struggling, disgruntled 45 point guy.

Oh come on, that’s ridiculous. It’ll take 2 years.

Colorado giving Makar 0:42 less per game Nashville giving Josi 0:59 less per game Dallas giving Heiskanen 1:06 less per game The only two guys with slightly more TOI per game are Doughty and Carlson, two grizzled, HOF caliber vets. And Dahlin's 'counting stats' are right there (and slightly better) than both of them.
