Just saw a Tsugimoto jersey.

That’s shot is something to behold live.

TNT!!!!

Lots of cheering here after that one!

LOTS of blue and gold here tonight!

I’ll be at the game tonight. Don’t know if I’ll be in the mood to scream when the Sabres score though.

Here’s the issue I have with the V fib story. He took the hit, got up and was talking to teammates, then he suddenly dropped. So, about 5 seconds passed between the hit and the collapse. Now, he could be in V fib for those 5 seconds before anoxia to the brain caused him to drop. If we assume that he did indeed have V fib, which is a shockable rhythm, did they defibrillate after 2 minutes of CPR? Then seemed to do 9 min of CPR, which is indicated, but they should’ve been shocking in between sets.

We have goal scorers. Looking at our current roster, we will eventually need players to fill in our 3rd/4th line. Are you suggesting these types of players are needed more than a 3/4 defenseman? is Savoie this type of player? I get it Savoie is highly touted and am not suggesting he a bust, but you need to trade quality for quality. No one else in our pipeline would really move the needle for Chychrun and I’m not moving the 2023 1st.

I’d trade them Savoie and change for Chychrun. Even though I’m hesitant based on his injury history.

That’s overly optimistic. I have TNT just getting 5.

Maybe he was at yesterdays game and got discouraged by his competition progressing well.

Reversion to the mean.

Yep. He had some delusional idea that friggin NE would magically become some hockey powerhouse and he would be playing for a championship. Truth is, he has the same poor play in front of him and perhaps last year their play was overly optimistic.

But why punish him to playing well? I would keep all 3 goalies. Anderson can play the odd game here and there and UPL can be 1A and Comrie 1B.

Maybe they should ask their wives, they must be good at find small buttons by now.

Eligible, but not playing, as he’ll be traveling with the Sabres next year.

I have tickets for the game against the Caps on Jan 3rd. Let’s hope things are cleared out by then.

What they should’ve done is protected Toker over Ulmark. That shiny decoy would undoubtedly been picked up because Seattle went on a goalie signing frenzy. With Ulmark selected, we would’ve retained everyone else. They should told Ulmark he signs a contract or he gets exposed. Instead, we got played.

Who 3 years ago ever thought a Jeff Skinner appreciation thread would pop up in the future? Or that we would be comparing Tage Thompson’s importance to Josh Allen?

Many bonus internet points for the McKelvin quote attempt, but it was “…point blank period”.

From what you wrote, it seems we are doing the opposite of Detroit. We are allowing our young players to go through their growing pains, even if it leads to losses. No blocking young players here. Detroit seems to be taking responsibilities away from them and giving them to average or above average vets. Time will tell which is the right, but their approach seems to be what the NHL has been doing for decades.

Maybe the Sabres should borrow them and do a throwback night sometime.
