Hell of a 3rd and way to trip him Levi , great move lol I'm not always a fan of Casey Middlestadt but he had himself a great game today.

1st period yes, 2nd period I didn't see it that way at all.

Never even seen you on here before so I'm ok with it.

No I'm not. What should I be kidding about?

Pathetic 2nd period, like looking at a whole different team. Not playoff looking hockey at all, all or nothing 3rd, leave it all on the table boys!

How is he all by himself? How?

Sabres sure screw themselves with dumb penalties.

Dahlin won this game, he was a straight up beast from start to finish both offensive and defensive.

Same clueless plays at the end of games that we know and love.

Comrie should not be on this team next season, he's not even a reliable backup. I would assume they get a legit veteran goalie (Jonathan Quick, James Reimer, Semyon Varmalov, Cam Talbot or Frederick Anderson) and keep UPL in Rochester, he has moments where you think he'll be great but then goes back to being JAG in net. I don't think he gets sent down unless he has a whole bunch of games like the Detroit game but many of those goals weren't his fault but those are just my 2 pennies.

We're still in it!

We need major changes in philosophy next season.

How are we still this terrible on defense? How is it possible? Who is the defensive assistant and why is he on this team?

The good thing is we have appeared to have found our goalie the bad thing is we've lost our scoring touch.

Terrible call

And vice versa

It looks like we can handle playoff hockey but can we win playoff hockey? We're about to find out!

Come on Peterka.

Bench Jost

Tuch is having a rough go at this.

Great news for us. Let's go and win out the rest of the games and let the chips fall where they may.

Start Levi in all of them if he's up for it, there is no substitution for real NHL game experiences. There will be ups and downs even for Vets so let's see how he handles them, why not let him get a crack at the team that gave him away?

I see him as a JAG player, he pretty much has been since he's been on the roster. I don't have any agenda towards him I just don't see him as a player who will be here when we are going for the Cup which hopefully starts this year but reality is more likely next year. I'd rather a more physical player take his spot, I know some keep saying he has been more physical this season and I guess at times he is but I'd rather have a more physical grinder, we have a bunch of smallish, skilled forwards like Savoie/Kulich/Östlund/Rosen who all seem to be under 6', so I want physical Dmen and a few physical bottom tier players so when the Flyers/Bruins and plethera of other teams try taking our speed away with checking we can match the intensity, I don't believe (and know) Middlestadt doent bring that element to his game on a regular basis.
