So being talented and opportunistic isnt important? Huh?

Krebs with crazy break out rush

It is Marty, I think

Oh, them two!! Chemistry 101

Beautiful!!!

50 still doable???

They should pretty much just stand pat. Their younger players are maturing and starting to round into shape. Sure, if a major opportunity to improve the team comes along via trade, take it, but don't just blow up everything for the sake of blowing everything up. Goaltending needs to be looked at long and hard, but really the options available to upgrade from outside are usually limited, so try and sign Reimer and hope UPL and Levi get their acts together, push each other and begin to form a tandem where they play the hot goaltender. Competition might help here. Of course, always be on the look out for a way to improve the team, but not go crazy for sake of change.

I'm reading Neil DeGrasse Tyson's Starry Messenger which I did not like at first, thinking it was silly to think about people just getting more enlightened, but it is a really excellent book as it turns out. Among many other things he makes the point that space exploration is very important for life on earth. For example, he did this comparison of the years when the Apollo missions were taking place and how the Environmental Movement really took off. After earth was photographed from space people took an interest in not taking the planet for granted. He makes a good argument that the Apollo missions really jump started our love of the planet. He also makes the point that there are enormous stores of resources in space that we should tap for our benefit. The book is funny in parts but I also think he puts too much emphasis on human reason and forgets a bit how crazy irrational we are, but it is still a great read, as are all his books. He is the new Carl Sagan in a way. He is a great spokesperson for science in general and astrophysics in particular

Taking just him for Cozens might have been a fine move

He's awesome!

Go Sabres! 🏒

Maybe this Bruin team can’t hit the net, lol

I’m guessing UPL in net?

I had a really fun time at the game. Very happy they won, and really I was just expecting them to win even after they fell behind twice. They looked like the better team most of the night. The fans were really into it. The place was fairly well packed, their was a vibrant atmosphere from the time we got down town all they way through and after. Must admit there were a lot of Lightening fans in attendance, too. The game being close contributed to everyone just having a good time. Lots of young kids in attendance having a ball and lots of adults laughing and drinking up. The stadium people do a good job getting the fans going and making everyone laugh, by like, showing people on the big screen stuffing their faces or just focusing in on young kids making them go wild with laughter. The players came over to the glass and were flipping pucks up to young kids who were thrilled to get them. I understand better now why they play better at home. They are comfortable there and seem to like the fans as much as the fans like them. During pre-game the two former Pens Guentzel and Zucker were yucking it up together at center ice, which was interesting to watch. It was great to see Zembus get honored by not only the fans, but players on both benches. As to the game, Benson just looked excellent. He had that great assist but just looks good even against really big players like Cernak who he battled all night. Mule looked really good also. I sure hope there is a plan to re-sign Reimer, he is a rock and I don't care how old he is, he is our best goaltender.

I’m heading up to game. First of the year Go Sabres!!

Putting him with Quinn and JJP would be fun, but maybe kind of risky

Maybe competition from Levi will do the trick, I dunno.

McCloud? Tuch is good, so are Zucker and Greenway

I have not seen him play in AHL but it looks like he is doing something right. https://13wham.com/sports/pickin-splinters/with-6th-shutout-levi-in-recent-rare-territory-for-an-amerks-goalie Rochester, N.Y. — The statistics for American Hockey League goaltenders paint a pretty vivid picture of just how well Devon Levi has played for the Rochester Americans. The second-year goalie ranks fifth in both goals-against average (2.21) and save percentage (.918), is tied for third in victories (23 in 35 appearances) and is ninth in minutes played (2029.20). But history provides an even more telling story. After Levi made 28 saves on Friday night in a 6-0 victory over the Bridgeport Islanders, the 23-year-old native of Quebec leads the AHL in shutouts. An Amerks goalie hasn’t led the league in shutouts outright since Martin Biron in 1997-98 with five and 1998-99 with six. Mika Noronen tied for the lead the following year with six. And as a bonus, a Noah Östlund highlight

UPL has been awful, no doubt. Hopefully its just that the long season took a toll on him and a little rest, retooling and a fresh start sees him ready to do well as a 35-40 game goalie with Levi ready to platoon. Not sure what other options there are. Goalies don't grow on trees. Its easy to say "go out and get a goalie," but super hard to find. Washington seems to have gotten lucky in finding two of them maybe we find one that someone else is throwing away. If they sign Reimer again, are we going with the three headed monster again next year?

Bo’s reaction lol ha ha!!!

Dylan with the 🍎 lol

Krebs!!!!

Next year when season starts the special teams better keep doing well. They look great moving puck around on PP and pK looks good. It has to carry over!!

40 is totally in his sights now
