Hope it was just rust for Clifton but yeah he did suck.Â
ÂJoki is the same and he can’t be with Power. They share a weakness in the d zone when the puck is behind the net they get lost.Â
ÂBensen has good and bad. He is special, you take the bad for the good.Â
ÂJohnson shored up his mistakes today and still looked good on offense.Â
Oloffson is toast, he’s just too much of a defensive liability and his good doesn’t make up for it ÂÂ
Other rookies didn’t do anything to impress today, they need Rochester time Â
UPL did nothing to save himself. If Comrie looks average next game he edges it out imo. I bet we keep 3 though
-
Clifton still bad
Joki not good
Oloffson no good
UPL okay
Johnson looking better, no bonehead clearing today
Benson another bad penalty, then redemption. He better make it

Clifton looks bad. Joki is still bad. Oloffson is a liability, no way he deserves a spot. Benson looks good.Â

I like three of the lines, Bensons time to answer whether he can elevate lesser players now. I hope Power-Joki fails quickly so we don’t need to see too much of it. UPL’s last chance?

I’m not a fan of the d pairs.Â

When being asked to be the #1 D-man paired with an AHL/NHL tweener going against another team's top line; why yes, yes he does.
He's looked much better before today. But this is one of those burn the film games.
Don't know. But would seriously consider paying it. REALLY wanted them to find a way to move up and grab him that draft. Still imagining what could've been: Dahlin-Jiricek; Power-Samuelsson; Johnson-doesn't really matter. (Mix and match the top 4 however you want. Doesn't really matter.) Would be an all-time challenging D and they could keep that together for years.
I don’t view his errors as forced. He gets into fugue states where he just throws the puck blindly

Johnson sucks at defenseÂ
-
Bensen and Levi fail. BustsÂ
-
Mittelstadt isn’t getting bullied off the puck anymore
Comrie is the best bet in backup
Levi is real. Benson is real
Power is going to sophomore slump. Be ready.
We are going to have a lot of roster battles everywhere. I don’t see how Bryson ever plays again. Nobody is going to be gifted anything except Okposo and Girgensons.Â

You can’t tell a kid who is standing up Crosby shift after shift he can’t cut it. Some people are built differently.Â

Benson giving Crosby fits in puck battles leading to a goal. The kid has to make the teamÂ

That active stick of his is special. It frustrates me so much how many NHL players don’t do it. Even if good players can dodge it, it keeps the pressure on and that adds up.Â
ÂIm sorry Skinner, put Benson with Tage and Thompson, he’s ready for 9 at a minimum. Will flourish if he can be paired with some size.Â

He’s many years away

He’s going to have a bunch of brain farts but he stabilizes what used to be a black hole. Let’s see what Granato does with him

They will just deny and let it slide. They can’t attack, even if they had undeniable evidence it wasn’t said it’s still a losing game in public opinion to fight it.Â

That was 100% offense. You don’t win games with a -3 turnover ratio.  Gabe is predictable and easy to cover. Cook is playing flag football with his low effort out there. Josh was rattled from pressure from the best defense out there. He still had easy throws he didn’t make though. And bad turnovers.Â
ÂKincaid looked really promising though. Â Defense was fine.Â

He MIGHT be the most important guy to this team, but the issue with 10.5m, if its true, is the fact that it is SO much more than Cozens and Tage. You can justify that number by saying he is a #1 overall guy, he gets the most ice time, you can say he might be/is more important to the team than the other 2, its signed a year later, its not much more than they gave Eichel and this is years later...etc. BUT it would still be almost 50% higher than Tage and that seems like a big jump from him.
One plays 30 minutes a night. The others play 18 max.Â

Pairing Krebs with Oloffson is unfair to Krebs at this point in his career. And that’s coming from a Krebs skepticÂ

If Kim isn’t around nobody wants to run it.  Pegula has always just wanted to run the Sabres. He can hire someone else to run the Bills without having them worry about hockey. The kids tried their hand and failed, this is plan B

Can’t put this to a vote or any of the absolutely awful Boston announcers would get mentioned. And they are absolutely awfulÂ

He’s not the defenseman I would’ve parted with it money/contract was no object. Not super happy about this

85% would be a good effort target ;D
