UPL would literally be my last choice in net…interesting decision.
I think we reasonably know that we're not going to playoffs. UPL needs to show more before anyone is ready to say he's ready for regular #1 or #2 on this or any other NHL team. I think that's reason to play him.

Attached is a WGR link with Shayna Goldman on the SabresLive Show. The focus of this 16 min discussion was about the goalie situation for next year. The issue according to her and Marty Biron is the style of play that puts the goalies in a vulnerable position. She seems to argue that it would be a mistake to pursue major upgrades at the position because she's not sure that they will be available or worth the costs. At the end of the discussion Marty points out that a more defensive emphasis needs to be made on team defense than on pursuing outside talent. He thinks that Comrie is still a viable goalie for us.Â
At the end of the segment there was talk about Mitts and his contract value. She was considering somewhere in the range of $4.2 M on a medium length deal.Â

Agree totally. If we don't correct this pitiful defense goaltending doesn't matter.

Which is why I call him "average". I have no issues with him in the bottom 6 next year. The guy I'd deal if you want to make changes (which I would) is VO.Â
Unfortunately I think VO's value is dropping all the time. Part of package deal possibly.

UPL huge save after3 straight Sabres turnovers.Â
We need someone to coach defense. We can't be this bad can we?

Hope fans expectations aren't too high. He's going against NHL level now and it a whole different game. Still expect at least one year in Rochester learning the game.
-
We so suck defensively. Go ahead blame goaltending.

The person I was quoting was quoting someone who was mocking some post for being reminiscent of some politician. My post was a sarcastic one based on a copypasta of one of the politician's social media posts.
That then should have been left to die, but I accept your explanation. Stay well.

Rasmus Dahlin will be the Captain next year. Alex Tuch will get an A.
Think this may be the call.

- The day after....eeash. Playoffs are obviously done but more disturbing is that I really don't even know who this team is anymore. Are they years away? Is our coach out the door? Can our defense and goaltending really be this bad? Can we please go back to last week as this feels exactly the same as last year.
No the coach isn't out the door. Our defense and goaltending certainly needs to get better. My guess it will by maturing of the players we have and additions. This ,and I know many don't want to hear it, is a young team and a long season without a lot of depth for this level of play. I feel better about the direction of this team and it's management than I have for over a decade.Â

Always have hated that the downer of the opponent goal PA announcement has to take so long to come. Not smart.
Really? Yeah that really bugs me. Takes so much away from the game.

So sick of having crap goalies
Agree but good to very good goalies are not easily obtained. Need to develop them within.

VO has never impressed me as a hockey player. He's a depth player with a good shot. Unfortunately his trade value is not great. In spite of his trade value I doubt we'll see him here next year.

If it will make the NHL money they will do it.Â
It'll make owners money. They must love dividing up those expansion fees and giving fans even more of a watered down product and charging more to see it. I've "lost my love for the game" to steal a quote.

The ironic thing about Olofsson is now that the team has enough talent at the other F slots they could afford a PP specialist on the 3rd or 4th line, with the addition of Greenway they have 12 other options that are better even with Tuch out with the injury.
Still don't expect him to sit - Granato loves him some VO.

My opinion is VO has a blaze of a shot and should be a PP guy period. Frankly I hoped they could have traded him but I think his value has dropped considerably.

That was worth the price of a ticket.

We need to be smart in the 3rd. Â Stay out of the box. Â Tampa will be trying to goad us into penalties. Â Â

Exactly. Don't let them get you into retaliation penalties.

It is. Just hope the rough stuff doesn't get us distracted.
