I’ll repeat, Stillman was brought in specifically to help with that.
Then KA is an idiot because Stillman is a punching bag.

When you were picked specifically to add “grit” To the team then it IS your job. Plus he should do what he needs to do to gain respect amongst his teammates and sticking up for your Captain, who is also one of the elders of the team, would go a long way. Obviously you don’t know what respect is or how to gain it
plus Okie was doing his job and by standing up to Delarieus. It was plainly obvious that Stillman didn’t have the balls to do it so Okie did.
I'll repeat. The entire team is soft and the entire league knows it.

I’m not saying he needs to drop the gloves but you’re good with him just stand there and watch Deslauriers push around the Captain? Obviously I feel differently. IMO he should have gotten in between them even if he took a penalty. The game was way over by that point, who cares
Maybe the captain should be a captain and lead rather than have a guy who has been on the team for 2 weeks come to his rescue.
The whole team is soft top to bottom and the entire league knows it.

Stillman stood there watching his Captain get pushed around by Deslauriers after the initial scrum.
Stillman got his ass handed to him in his last fight and missed time. Don't think he's super keen on jumping in with Deslauriers who would have equally or worse beaten his ass.

Who wants to hate on Torts after his team just whipped our ass....again.

Brawndo's correct. They deliberately did not do this to UPL because they wanted to send him the message he's an NHL goalie now.
Seth Appert talked about it with Marty and Duffer.
Then he needs to make NHL caliber saves, which he doesn't

I don’t think there are roster limits after the trade deadline. Since the salary cap isn’t an issue, I think they can all be here.
Yeah but you don't want them to be.

Well, it seems clear that he will play very soon. Who goes down? UPL or Comrie? I think UPL goes down and plays in the AHL playoffs.

I feel like the fanbase has been asking for the FO to do something in goal for the last two offseasons. Probably could have been a little more aggressive there.
We don't know anything though.

Does anyone cough up more big leads than this team?

What's Alex Nylander been up to, you ask?
He's had a very productive season this year for Pittsburgh's AHL team, with 50 pts in 54 games. He's only had 3 NHL games, and in the most recent of those, this happened:
That he can't get on the ice for a team desperate for forwards says a lot. Enjoy Wilkes Barre, Alex.

Whose rules are we using? The 1980 rules with no instigator penalties and a more relaxed attitude towards physical abuse in general or the modern rules where slashing, hooking, and holding are called much more liberally?

I seriously wonder why the post lockout "rules" just faded away seemingly overnight. The trapezoid is pointless, though.
It's only pointless because goalies don't go in there anymore. Take it away and see what happens.

A little late, but what does Olofsson add to this team? If he isn't scoring goals, he's an enormous liability.
He makes a nice Bundt cake

I’m getting Sabres feed on ESPN. It did not give me an option but I have the Sabres set as my team.
They know Dunleavy is trash too.

Not much of a conspiracy theorist, but there have waaaayyyyy too many non calls and questionable calls to be just a coincidence. This is ridiculous
You can make looooots of prop bets in Gary's Garage League these days.

We're supposed to be happy now? 9th draft pick last year, right now we're at 10th pick. Are we supposed to get excited about that 'jump' in the standings?
It's certainly what's going to be sold to you. "Look at how much better we got! Our future is shining bright! Everyone is talking about it!"

Considering it's been over a decade since the Sabres have had more than 1 good goalie at any time and even getting to 1 has been a struggle; that'd be a good problem to have.
They are great at collecting ***** goalies though. We're full to the brim with those.

And we are in agreement there. But there is room for more than 6 goalies in the system and pointing that out was the purpose of the post you're responding to.
There is technically but the more you have the harder it gets. Europe is a decent stash and the new Swedish rules help a bit with that.

The organization can have more than 6 goalies playing professionally. Back in the day Kolzig was loaned to the Amerks because the Caps didn't have room for him in the AHL but they wanted him getting action. Much more recently, Binnington was loaned to San Antonio.
Get a solid G pipeline rolling and then start converting some of those 5-7th rounders into 3rd rounders or better and keep the cream of the crop in house.
The first sentence of my response I said they should draft one every year.

Psst … I have a super special secret. Don’t tell anybody. All goals scored in a given game, on the goaltender, isn’t always the direct result of poor goaltending.
You're right, but when a goalies goals allowed v. His goals expected are huge, then it is. That was last game.

Unfortunately, waiving Comrie or any other goalie isn’t gonna stop the ridiculously high number of high danger shots we allow our goalies to face as compared to the rest of the league. If you haven’t seen it in the UPL thread, somebody posted the list of goalies facing the highest percentage of those shots and all three of our goalies are in the top 10, with two in the top three.
Oh, the team defense is garbage too. They haven't done anything about that either. So either the team D needs to get better, they need a better goalie, or both.
