    Clifton looks pretty bad. We really didn't do what we needed to on D. I was hoping our team D was going to improve at least a little but doesn't look like it. 

    As an team, the Sabres have no clue  how to defend the front of the net. And that doesn't mean knocking people down. They don't take away passing lanes, tie up sticks, block shots, lean on guys in front. 

    It's just open season on the goaltender.

    Levi could have made a save or two more here, but Clifton/Dahlin have been horrible in front of him.  The other two pairings have been fine.  We know Dahlin is solid so......CLifton needs to play 12 minutes on the 3rd pairing.  Hellebuyk would have been lit up tonight behind this effort.  3 sabres are plus tonight, Benson, the demoted Sammy and Joker (who has been quite good

    Sure, there's being ready to be an above average starting goaltender, but if the Sabres don't tighten up their defensive play, Levi will have to be an all star for the Sabres to win.  That's even more pressure on a 21 year old.

    Tampa needs to reflect on how they got into their current cap situation. I would give him a reasonable extension, but no way would I be giving him the obligatory NTC that they usually give out to all their players. Extend him with a tradable contract. Otherwise, he can go elsewhere, which I bet he would be loath to do. 

    My guess is that reflection would be, 'we won two Stanley Cups the last four seasons.' And the reflection would end there.
