Mustache of God

I haven't seen enough from Benson to warrant keeping him around after 9 games. I notice him more often than not when he's taking bad penalties or getting out-muscled instead of positively contributing to the team. I imagine that once Savoie's conditioning stint is over they'll bring him back to the Sabres and send Benson back down. With Comrie on IR maybe they keep both around while that last spot is available.

Projecting the 23-24 lineup?

Haven't read the thread but I find it fun that the first game we roll UPL and Bryson in the same game we don't allow a single goal.

Need to start stringing some Ws together. It could start tonight. The players below have yet to notch a goal this season....who's next off the list? I'm guessing Dahlin or Josty. NAME Rasmus Dahlin D Henri Jokiharju D Owen Power D Kyle Okposo RW Zach Benson LW Connor Clifton D Tyson Jost C Peyton Krebs C Victor Olofsson LW

It'll be funny when every game in regulation ends 0-0.

For casual fans, tuning into a broadcast that jumps between the most exciting plays from each game sounds pretty awesome to me. Hockey can sometimes be boring to watch, especially if you don't care about the teams and they're playing low-event hockey. I think the league is not run very well and is always 8 years behind the times, but this is actually a cool concept.

Here's to hoping for another strong game from Comrie. The best thing for Levi's development will be Comrie playing well which will remove the burden from Levi's shoulder and have him focus on actually having to compete for the starting net.

You're thinking of Southern Junction and they recently moved to a new location. I came here to suggest them as I've heard it's really good, although I haven't tried it yet. I got a Big Green Egg a few years ago and I don't think I've gone out for BBQ since as I can now smoke my meats at home.

I don't see him staying up. I think it's great he made the team and is getting a real taste of NHL action but having the frame of an 18 year old kid is holding him back.

I was thinking that but if he's not 100% why is Granato rolling him out at the end of the guy to get the equalizer?

Oh god, we suck again!

What's wrong with Tuch? Nothing he's doing is working.

Sabres are due for an offensive explosion.

Seriously. I'm happy they're riding Levi to start the season, the pucks getting past him have largely not being his fault. I think he's only been beat clean by Panarin who was in the slot and put a really nice shot on net. When they announced they were rolling with 3 goalies I expected them to have more of a rotation, but that doesn't seem to be the case here. Whichever goalie is "3rd" on our depth chart would be served so much better racking up starts in Rochester opposed to sitting on a cold bench here. If we continue to have 3 goalies, I wonder how many games into the season before all 3 have at least 1 game.

It beats Lev-sie or Dev-sie, that's for sure.

Top line was also showing signs of life. They'll be clicking soon enough. Need to see more from the Cozens line. We outplayed them, and Levi kept us in it. Really need to be scoring more than 2 goals in regulation and that starts with our power play.

80-2 still on the table!

What was Dahlin doing there? Woof.

Let's keep it up into the second. Don't sit back.

Yeah, this is indeed frustrating.

It's a sacrifice I'm willing to take.

I've really liked the energy I've seen from Krebs this year. Hopefully he brings the jam to that line and it clicks.

Maybe VO is going to pull a Brett Burns and switch from wing to D and become really good at D and then grow a MASSIVE beard.

I'm okay as I can be with a slow start. We've seen where blazing fast starts have gotten us the past few years. If we can get a handful of wins in October and then instead of falling apart in November, we actually start to continue to tack on wins I'll be a lot happier. I also recall last season our top line took a few games to "get going". I'm not panicking yet but it'd be nice to see these guys look like they're trying for most of the game.
