    Anything can happen during the season i just dont see him finishing strong at the end just my feeling 

    Interesting, considering the last 2 years, Thompson has only played better as the season has gone along. 3 points in 17 games January-March, 11 in 21 in April-May of 20/21. 14G 29 points in 40 games October-January, 24 G and 39 points in 38 games  of 21/22. 
     

    Each season so far he has improved as he went along, and he had started with 10 goals and 18 points in 14 games so far. 
    We’ll see if he’s done developing soon enough, but it’s possible he still has more to show us.

    Very happy to see Dahlin back on the ice. 
    Now that we’re seeing these lines again, assuming we’re gonna see them tonight.

    Some reactions:
    I think splitting up the Skinner-Thompson pairing could be a good thing here. I think it could get Skinner going on goals. 
    I like Mitts on the wing for Thompson, should help with transition, and hopefully help set Thompson up more and get Mitts producing at even strength. Skinner should do well with Cozens and Tuch creating chaos. 
    Hoping Krebs can set up Oloffson, but I am a little worried about this line. Asplund balances it out some.

    Any line with Girgs+Okposo should do alright, hoping Quinn can continue to contribute offensively, and can learn some from skating with these 2. 
     

    should be an interesting night.

    Has he  Regrest in his number so far ? 

    I remember last season he was getting  Shutouts every other game 

    Last season he had a 1.54 GAA and a .952 save percentage in 32 games.

    This season he has a 1.53 GAS and a .950 save percentage in 9 games so far. No regression there, those numbers are damn consistent.

    I haven’t watched Hines. Does he bring the same skill set as Cook?

    I would say similar skill set, but more developed. Better check down option at this point, as he has really quick acceleration and good vision than our other backs. He could also end up lining in the slots and points. Also gives us some interesting options for cook and Hines lining up in the backfield/motioning across. 

    Also has some returning ability.

    There are two Sabres in the top ten in points ...Dahlin and TNT with 14 are 9/10.

    There are two Sabres in the top ten in goals VO (8) is tied for third and Thompson (7) for fourth. 

    I can't remember the last time that was true even this early in the season. 

     

    Tuch (7) is also tied with Thompson in goals.
