Wookie, did you watch that play near the end of the game ??? You have cozens battling 2 jets and Tuch just standing there. he won't stand in front of the net and battle on the PP and has now been replaced by KO and Greeenway. - both who do have the courage. When your 6'4 vet winger played soft , what message does that send the youngsters ?

He's a gentle giant, he's the Tin Man and the lion rolled into one. Missing heart and courage. I know he wants to be a sabre but if he needs to go to bring in a legit top 4 RHD. ... so long

They struggle against teams that are well coached and disciplined. They are getting better but still aren't there yet the unfortunate part is it's guys like Tuch not battling, skinner with lazy penalties and bad passes and Tage unable to clear the zone that are often killing them

No no. Let's name names. Tuch. Has no business on the top PP unit and no place on the ice when down by 1 with 2 mins to go. Need guys willing to battle

Jets are a more mature and better coached team. Amazing what coaching can do.

Freaking Tuch no help at all

Hells bells. Tuch is a gentle giant. Drives me crazy

It took him 60 games to figure out Tuch isnt a net front guy , so yes still dislike

Lucky to be tied. Have to figure out the Jets forecheck. Hopefully they (jets) tire a bit as the game goes on. Cause they are causing the Sabres a lot of trouble in their own zone

Who's having fun?!

Finally Skinner off PP1. Next do Tuch!

You can not compare the board battle between 37 and 53. They are miles apart

he has 3 PP goals in 2024. How is he a finisher. ??? Oh and 2 assists in 27 games. Give him the job

But he can't battle along the wall and his playmaking is avg at best. And the PP is designed for 72 and 26 to shoot, so really doesn't help is 53 is your best finisher

Well 53 and 89 weren't on the ice

I'm no Matt Ellis but shouldn't you best passer in 37 be on your top PP unit ? I would love someone to explain to me why 53 is on it and 37 isn't plus why wouldn't they have 12 in front of the net instead of 89 off to the side ??

Don't agree. Its courage. You watch KO on PP2. He stands there and takes a beating and causes havoc

Then he shouldn't be on PP1 as the guy who should be standing in front of the net. If we can all see he won't do it, why doesn't DG and Ellis? KO battles in front of the net. He deserves a lot of credit for what he is doing on PP2

I want him to use his frame and create havoc around the opposing net. He's a 6'3 perimeter player

He has zero courage. I want a big man who will battle in front of the net. I'll take KO to do that over Tuch

What has Tuch done to deserve to be on the ice down by a goal with a minute to go ?

I'd rather him on the ice than 53

Skinner and Tuch have done next to nothing to deserve a spot on the top line why would you lean on them in the closing minute of a game when you are desperate for a goal

For the love of god. Put KO out there instead of Tuch

The refs (like in the NFL) should have to explain their calls after the game. Would love to hear how Benson got a minor penalty in the 1st period
