Garbage

Gotta shoot that or pass it sooner

I need a Benson goal, neeeeed

Tage Thompson just isn't skating. Lots of standing and waiting for plays.

poly juice you say?

Things you can say about the Sabres game, but not your wife

Honestly I'm more worried about Jost.

Someone from that Cozens line needs to go to the slot. Too much perimeter play.

Oh man, poor Zach Benson is still living at the hotel. One of the vets should let him move in.

this is a high school musical reference for those that don't know

Shout-out to Power for a great pass.

Skinner!

Zemgus goal!

Jokiharju is just not smart.

Tuch, you get that penalty for being lazy and not being in front of your guy. Just lazy lazy play.

Didn't realize how much espn loved tampa

The Sabres have listed Benson on every preseason, training camp, and rookie roster as 5'10" 170. Idk what this is because I never look at it.

Regardless of Benson's size, he's been good thus far.

They are for me. He's 5'9"3/4 at the combine. Nhl is trash at updating things.

No they don't. The Sabres have Benson listed at 5'10" 170lbs.

No, we should start a separate thread and in reality it would be, would you bench Olofsson to put Krebs in his spot or something like that

On Benson, I would be surprised if he leveled off at a middle 6er but it is possible. He lacks elite speed and his shot is currently just above average. I think though with his motor, puck skills, and smarts that he most likely turns into a very good to borderline elite top line guy. He is going to be a nightmare at 5'11" 190lbs if he gets there. I will add that one thing Benson has that Reinhart never did was grit. Benson is a pain in the ass, he stick lifts like a all star and his is IMPO smarter than Reinhart.

The only downside for Buffalo is that Jeff Skinner has 4 years left on his deal. If you slide Benson's ELC that means Skinner's 9mil is off the books when Benson hits his post ELC deal. That said, I don't worry about it. If he helps us win, keep him.

Had a person above absolutely unload on me after I questioned my lack of invite to a planning meeting. We don't speak any longer. So I suppose them doing that wasn't really effective considering I make sure I no longer am on projects they are remotely involved with. I think what Don Granato says on WGR and what he says in the lockerroom are not always the same. Also, he just benched Olofsson so clearly there is a message being sent to the team.
