That was a really good 18 minutes.

UPL made two saves but kicked out giant rebounds. They need to control the puck at the end of the period. They gave away a goal.

Oh my. A late goal against once again.

Zucker inspired on that shift

Sabres totally dominated for awhile. Wake up !!

Muel with big hits on Wilson and Ovie

Needed Krebsie to bury that but good shift by the 4th line

OK Rosie. Nice. This kid looks different to me already. Haven’t seen him in awhile.

Tuch nicely done.

Wilson expertly had Greenways jersey pulled to hold his arm back. Good tussle. There could be a part 2.

Greenway blew someone up. Wilson took acceptation and started it. He should get the extra 2.

Seems pretty cool most of the time. He was very gracious in the ceremony.

Caps seems to develop guys like Protas. Ok Tage answers. We really needed that.

Strome seems to score on the Sabres a lot.

Teammates I’m ready for a W. I like Hockey Fights Cancer Night. I happen to have a few friends that are in cancer battles right now. Anything to raise awareness and funding for research is good.

It’s life giving.

UPL was the backup in Boston. Maybe Ellis is hurt? Who knows, it makes no sense. One thing I do notice is that on this site UPL is the least popular goalie of the bunch.

I only like regulation ties when were had to come from behind.

Caps will change on the fly to test that group for sure.

Living in Pittsburgh? I thought you were in Lewiston. NOTE: If you scoreboard watch until January you might miss the season.

Benson seemed to slow down the last few games, the effort was there but the burst was not. Hope he comes back strong. That is hockey, so now it is time for Isak Rosen to get a look. Hey All, Hockey DB has a new picture and updated data on Rosen. He is now listed at 6'0 tall and 185 lbs - proof that these kids keep growing after the draft. I think he has listed at 5'10 and 160 pounds at one time. In addition his skin cleared up and his beard is coming in. He looks much more mature than my past memory of his picture. He also has 5 goals and 12 points in 8 games so far. Maybe, just maybe, he will show something on this call up. I am rooting for him!

Rossi, Jarvis, Lundell and don't forget centers Dawson Mercer or even Cole Perfetti. Quinn is looking like a miss when you see the centers he passed on but he scored big with Peterka in the 2nd round. Oh wait, he is gone too. Peterka - Eichel - Reinhart Pretty nice first line.

Ha ha. Well my friend you are looking at that scenario right now. My "fine" means it an option that keeps the one line that is working in tact, but I get it. I actually like Greenway as a bottom 3/6, if he can stay healthy he contributes. It is Nov 1st and we are on a 3 game losing streak, loser points aside, that is what I am most worried about. Tonight they need to get 2 points. Yet UPL is getting his second start and Ellis has just one. ???

He is trying to keep Doan-McLeod-Tuch together for some continuity. Zucker has played well with Tage in the past so Greenway on that line is fine. Tage won’t pass to him anyway. The 3rd line is very soft against a physical team like the Caps. The top 6 is not going to scare anybody. This lineup reminds me of how bad of a GM Kevyn is.
