Fast puck movement and goal. Try that on the PP guys.

Much better period.

Yes. He was only gone a couple of minutes

Good question. I guess the refs don’t like Casey either.

Casey saves a goal. I guess were done with his 2% for the night.

Dunleavy said at intermission that it isn’t the number of faceoffs you win but what you do with them when you win them. Being better in the faceoff circle would certainly help our special teams.

Now we need to do our part and win tonight.

Biron graphic at intermission. Since Jan 7 Dahlin has 4g and 10 A to lead the Sabres in points. Casey leads in primary assists with 8. Thompson only has 6 points in that stretch. Wow Casey really sucks. Trade him already KA. Easily the Sabres best player Hard for some people to give up the ghost.

You realize it was Casey who dug the puck out of the faceoff circle passed it Dahlin, who then returned it to Casey who waited for Dahlin to get into a prime shooting position and then returned the pass. So sure. Whatever you say.

I guess his good play setting up Dahlin’s goal was in the 2%.

Samuelsson having a terrible game so far.

New PP approach needed.

Jost line.

Did the Bills replace the Sabres tonight?

He was right. TNT should have shot that puck.

Spotrac lists the $2 mill as a signing bonus w no salary. My guess this was a way of giving Saffold more $ but fitting it under last year’s cap.

Dahlin averaged 7g 36a in his first 3 seasons based on a full schedule (Covid limited two of his first 3 seasons) playing about 21 minutes a night. His bridge deal was 3 years 6 mill and signed by KA. Power is on pace for about 32-35 pts his rookie year and skating about 23.5 minutes a night. He hasn't scored a goal yet this season for some odd reason. I'm sure that will correct itself soon. As of right now I think Dahlin's deal is a reasonable place to start with Power. Of course he could blow the doors off next season and then we're talking even more money, but as of right now I'd say we are in the similar bridge range for Power.

11 for Dahlin, 8 for Cozens and 6 for Power

Dahlin is our best all around player.

Try closer to 25 million.

Anderson is starting.

Forwards (Cost 41.225) TNT, Skinner, Tuch JJP, Cozens, Quinn Mitts, Jost, VO ???? Krebs ???? Defense (Cost 18.302) Samuelsson Dahlin Power ????? ???? Jokiharju Bryson Lyubuskin Goalies (Cost 2.638) UPL Comrie This group is 61.5 with 5 opening So how would I fill those openings? On defense I’d start with Nick Jensen (2 years 3.5 per season) for Power’s partner. I’d also make a run at Conor Clifton who Boston can’t afford to keep. (3 yr 2.5 per season) for Jokiharju’s partner. At forward, I’d bring back Z (2 yr 2.5 per season) and I’d like to see if Rousek is ready. I’d bring in a vet for the 13 F in case Rousek isn’t ready. This would cost about 11.3 for the 5 guys bringing the team to about 72.8. I am interested in Miles Wood, but I doubt KA would spend the money.

I agree with much of the above. Frazier is not adjust quickly enough if at all and Dorsey play calling is just terrible. Throwing bomds to Diggs and Davis all game is not an offense. He was better when Josh was hurt and he had to relay on the running game.

Sorry, but most of the guys will be back. Dawkins 15 mill (13 mill dead cap), Morse 11.3 (5 mill dead cap) and Bates 4.8 mill (6.5 dead cap) aren't going anywhere. Brown is a starter making 1.3 (400k dead cap). I expect all 4 back. Saffold is also on the books for 2 mill (2 mill dead cap).
