Levi Wins back to back Mike Richter Awards
French Collection replied to Brawndo's topic in The Aud Club
Elite company. Dryden’s 3 years at Cornell were spectacular. 66/67 25W 0L 1T 1.46 .945 67/68 25W 2L 1.52 .938 68/69 25W 2L 179 .936 -
Mats Lindgren with another 4 point game for the Red Deer Rebels. 8 points in 5 playoff games for the LHD.

It should. Every year equipment manufacturers claim they add 5-10 yards. 17 years worth of yardage.

Dumba is a UFA in July. -
Tage will probably shut it down if the mathematical possibility is done.

Devon Levi Signed to 3 year deal
French Collection replied to sabresparaavida's topic in The Aud Club
It’s exciting that Levi has put himself in the conversation for Buffalo next year. I figured he was good but this start is great. I think he is their best goalie so Rochester is not his destination. He has a few more games to build his case. If Comrie or UPL has to go, so be it. It sucks to lose an asset to waivers but perhaps there’s a trade possibility. It’s like if Savoie beats out Jost at camp, you keep Savoie instead of sending him back to the WHL. I would love to see Varlamov as a 1B, pushing the other guys further down the line. -
Who do you start in net vs Florida?
French Collection replied to In The Buff's topic in The Aud Club
My two cents. They have had a 3 goalie rotation where no one has taken the net. There have been good games but many poor ones from these three. There is not one of them that gives me the feeling that they would win an important game. They might but none of them inspire any confidence that they have this one in the bag. These guys have had 75 games to take the net and tell DG that they’ve got this. Our answers to this question reflect this. I vote Levi because he just beat a good team, he is full of confidence, he was traded away from that team and he fills me with hope because of his talent , work ethic and enthusiasm. Anderson hasn’t even been practicing. He can’t be ready. UPL was good in his last outing, but no better than Levi. Comrie is due for a start but he just doesn’t give me confidence. Regardless of who DG starts, the whole team must show up to beat the Panthers. Levi has thrived on big games up to this point, give it to him. -
Caps have a fork stuck in them, lost to the Rangers 5-2 today.

He hasn’t even been practicing, doubt he plays in FLA. -
Will the Buffalo Sabres make the playoffs?
French Collection replied to PASabreFan's topic in The Aud Club
Welcome. This is a good time to become a fan of the Sabres in my opinion, kind of like the early 70’s. Young stars with a lot of promise. -

My favourite play was Quinn knocking the puck down, keeping possession and the spinning pass to Tuch for the shortie. Clutch and high skill. -

I nominate Mule to be the next guest. Everybody on the team says he is a funny guy in a goofy way. -
Bruins 1 Pens 1 halfway through the first. Bergeron out today.

Cozens and Krebs will drop the mitts, I don’t want them getting hurt. Cozens missing 2 months with a broken hand next year could be costly. -
GDT: Rangers at Sabres-03-31 7:00PM Levi debuts
French Collection replied to MattPie's topic in The Aud Club
If Levi and Comrie play well, UPL and Anderson can stay in the press box. Gotta keep the rhythm going. If they are mathematically still in it, I would not even dress UPL. Anderson gets the Ottawa game if they are out of it. -

Another reason to dress Stillman over Bryson. He may not win the fight but he will engage a punk like Lemieux. -

French Collection replied to MattPie's topic in The Aud Club
I am not giving Levi the net but there is a chance he could be good enough to split NHL starts next year. Comrie is still auditioning for a role next year. He is under contract and will probably remain in Buffalo. He could be all right as part of a tandem. He could play well and be traded for an upgrade. UPL is the interesting case, he might get sent down and claimed. They cannot have a three headed goalie rotation next season. He could also be traded for an upgrade or draft pick. You can’t go UPL/Comrie if Levi is better than both just because Levi is waiver exempt. -
GDT: Rangers at Sabres-03-31 7:00PM Levi debuts
French Collection replied to MattPie's topic in The Aud Club
There is a chance he makes the team in the fall, I won’t deny that. His work this spring will aid his quest if he plays a few more like last night. I think he is already better than UPL. UPL may not get another game this year and that would not break my heart. I think he is special, I just don’t want to pencil him in Buffalo full time yet. UPL is probably thinking Portillo is a smart man. -
Komarov is under no pressure, he can develop at his own pace, guided by Patrick Roy. They will probably have deep playoff run, great experience. Seth Appert raved about Rosen on his last appearance on Sabres Live.

The Sabres are on the B2B this time. They may find it harder to buzz around for extended periods of time. I think they can see evidence of what team defense can do and focus on that and counterpunch on the rush. I would guess Comrie in net, hopefully inspired by Levi’s challenge, has a good game. 4-3 Sabres. Let’s go Buffalo!
