Juri Kulich. …

Okposo. Too ***** slow

At some point don’t you have to dump it into the corner and chase rather than try to continuously try to control over the blue line ?

I really hope that we’ve seen the last of “Greenway sucks” posts

Time to shorten the bench. They are off till Friday. Bench the Krebs line

Maybe but that was not his fault at all

The Sabres must easily lead the league in goals off their own players. I’m sure they’ve scored one or two as well but I can’t remember it

For the love of everything pure and holy - get Jeff Skinner off PP1

Watch the Staal line for the hurricanes - they don’t score a lot but give up nothing Martinook, Staal and Fast are 1,2 and 3 in Corsi for the entire league Their HDSC% is over 70 for all 3 as well Again best in the league

Olofsson, Krebs, Rousek. we don’t need to add a forward at all

Again I’ll hold you to the fire. Please provide the name of one goalie who would be available?

If the leafs lost tonight , it would have been fun to see the city meltdown. shame it was a 3 point game too

I don’t think he is and a lot. But as the Million Dollar Man Ted DiBiase taught me a long time ago - everyone has their price

Looking at some stats. Power is the number one D in the entire league in goals scored (even strength) with 15 (10 against) His corsi is pretty good and so is his eGF%So good things happen when he is on the ice

I agree. Sometimes the eye test is just as important as the fancy charts

Watching the Lightning taking it to the Leafs tonight so far The commentator about the Lightning PP “it’s the threat off of both flanks , you have Kucherov on the one side and Stamkos on the other.” why the Sabres don’t have Olofsson on PP1 (soon to be Kulich) opposite Thompson is beyond me nobody is scared of Cozens or Skinner shooting so they can cheat and take away Tage. Am I wrong ??

I think the point here is that you play a strong defensive game in front of your goalie an avg goalie can put up decent numbers

From looking at the charts. Zadorov seems to have better numbers than Tanev. But it’s pretty close. Maybe I am reading something wrong ?

Do you have fancy stat defensive stats on Zadorov and Tanev?

except that Crouse has had as many goals in the last 2 years as Greenway has had in his career.

Don’t have access to the full article but here is the basic findings from the Expected Buffalo guys who tracked every shift “Jiri Kulich is ready for an opportunity in the NHL with the Buffalo Sabres and his defensive shortcomings are overblown.”

There are a lot of posters here who are clamouring for GMKA to trade for a goalie but who? Last season Demko and Helleybuck seemed like possibilities but no longer are. So who else would you like the Sabres to trade for that would be a definite upgrade to the 3 already on the roster. I have two names that could be available but neither is a slam dunk improvement...Jake Allen (MTL) and Jacob Markstrom (CLG)

They need to play from the start with the desperation of the final 2 drives for an entire game if they do that, they can beat anyone they are just too concerned with making sure Josh doesn’t get hurt.

How much is that TO worth now ?

If you flipped the coaching staffs , the Bills would be winning this game. No doubt in my mind
