Guess they are back...

This team can be so good when they play with confidence...it's almost like they are the Harlem Globetrotters out there at times. It is amazing what the return of Samuelsson has done for them.

Dahlin on a pretty elite list. https://mobile.twitter.com/StatsCentre/status/1595286972502777858

Quinn was amazing yesterday...all over the place.

Bryson needs to play as little as possible, IMHO. He is far and away the Sabres worst +/- player at -13. Middlestadt is -7 and the next worst player is -4 in Fitzgerald. Pilut is -2, Lyubushkin -1 and all the other D are + players led by Dahlin and Samuelsson at +8. Power is +3, Joker is +2. See he played 3rd pair minutes yesterday but IMHO he should replaced by Larry. Taking him out and getting Samuelsson back is like a +21 swing in +/-. Want to know why they have been giving up so many goals? There ya go.

Guess all they needed was Samuelsson back. The way that line can pile up points when they are on is crazy... Thompson with 13 and 13 in 19 games, well over a point a game, Skinner and Tuch at a point a game.

New Jersey is one of the youngest teams in the NHL also and they have won 12 straight.

This team is a disgrace right now. They need to take a long hard look in the mirror after tonight. No excuse to keep making the same mistakes game after game.

Whoever is responsible for coaching the PK needs to be taken off it immediately...not sure I have ever seen a worse PK performance on a regular basis in my life. It's awful.

This team is devoid of confidence right now. It's about as bad as I've seen it with this group.

It isn't a blizzard. Just a historic lake effect snow storm. Orchard Park has 77 inches so far and expected to get another 9+ tonight. Actually that is incorrect. It brought about a foot of new snow with it.

Don't go giving some weirdo women ideas...

Damn...he is being outplayed by Houser...pretty badly actually. At least he has been better than Beck "Keep Me" Warm tho.

I was calling Comrie Ullmark because he was always out with lower body injuries for multiple weeks every year here.

Welcome back Linus Ullmark.

Nice! Samuelsson much needed to be back!

Samuelsson has been a massive loss...he was the most dependable Dman in our own zone and him being out has had a trickle down effect on the others.

This team is starting to remind me of the Oilers a few years ago where they could score with anyone but lost a lot because other teams scored more due to not playing any D

Defensive coverage is just inexcusably bad

Maybe not?

Will be interesting to see for sure. I'll count anything under 7 feet as a win...do not want to have to dig out from that much again.

IMO, it could be more than that...they always tend to estimate low in these events...the initial forecast for Snowvember was 12-18" which then steadily increased as it got closer.

Doubtful...most likely scenario is the game is moved to Detroit like last Snowvember. Makes sense since the Bills are there on a short week for Thanksgiving and could just stay there after this weeks game.

Too bad the other teams don't get to come for this:

I believe the Sabres are lucky to be on the road this week after tonight to avoid Snovember Part II setting up from Thursday-Monday
