The problem with the hit was that the taller player lunged upwards to hit JJ, thus exacerbating the impact. If he had remained level and hit him it would have been ok. If the league was serious about reducing head injuries they would rule against such hits even if they’re borderline, so that players wouldn’t make that extra move to increase the impact.

Yes it cements Levi as on the Sabres roster. Whether he’s 1 or 2 will depend on how they both play. But there is a chance Reimer comes back.

The Skinner cash paid for the new scoreboard and roof.

Isles waived former Sabre Hudson Fasching. When he was in college I thought he’d be a great scoring power forward.

I’d say that’s more luck for Brandon Beane.

There aren’t any local investors who would buy the team. Any buyer would likely require a new arena or move the team.

The fans will cheer them until they get down a couple goals, then the Fire Kevyn chants will start.

It’s a 2 minute penalty in the NHL.

If Peterka has a concussion he likely won’t be able to fly back for a couple of days.

Yes, Brian Koziol is at the game.

The Czech Sabres fan club will be dyeing their white buffalo hats into red devil horns.

Always one pass too many instead of shooting and going for rebounds.

He’s sending a message that making his veteran teammates look bad is not acceptable.

Please no, Peterka and Hughes are on my fantasy team. Pick a different one.

Kulich making sure he gets his name on the stat sheet.

Of course the one Sabre on my fantasy hockey team gets a concussion. 😩

Apparently it is, but they must have agreed to not bring both uniforms.

Are the Devils the home team, or did the Sabres give up 2 home games in Buffalo?

Benson was one of the few to make an effort. Taking out the youngest guy does not send the message they need. It should have been Thompson, and take out Samuelsson for Bryson.

Really wish they’d sit Tage and insert Kulich. He looked like he was dogging it. Send a message.

The Sabres still have to pay him $1.9 million this year and next, since they signed him to an extension last year. I’d take that kind of unemployment. Plus he’s now doing segments on the NHL Network on Sirius.

Last place in the league. 😩

New Jersey should shut down the comeback by taking a couple of penalties and putting the Sabres on the power play.
