When I was in my school days being a 3 letter athlete was very hard to do and was a lofty goal for some. I had a friend make it as a pitcher in MLB, and he had a good career. He also lettered in basketball and football. He was a star in all three. We didn’t have much off season sports in WNY back in the olden days. He only played baseball in spring and summer, but he made it. Times have changed.

Come on, man. You never miss an opportunity to take a shot at the kid.

Good start for the Jays. They have momentum. The Dodgers will try to bury that game and come back.

And why would sitting out help him? Sitting him out is isolating him from something he loves doing. He may already feel isolated due to the situation with his partner. He could become preoccupied by it. I think that maintaining his responsibilities to the team, being actively involved in helping his team, and being among some of his closest friends on the team is actually good for him. He cannot fix her. He can make her feel better by being who he is. And if he does feel the need to get away I suspect he would get full support from Lindy, Adams, and Terry.

Ok, the team is playing better and confidence is building. They have an opportunity to gain points on the dreaded Maple Leaves. Ellis should be starting again, he earned it. UPL had the shortest conditioning assignment in the NHL. Who gets the net? I would love to see the first line collect a bunch of goals and the Sabres run away with it. Instead goaltending will probably decide tonight’s game.

I was not impressed with Östlund in the Toronto game. He was not physical enough. Hope he steps up more tomorrow.

Benson gets penalties because he is involved. He also draws penalties.

I think Ellis should have this upcoming game. He earned it. UPL had one game in Rochester. I don’t think that’s enough. Not good. Kozak is playing good hockey.

Fair. I think the Sabres are getting good. The biggest unknown is who will be the goaltender supporting Lyon. Next is Kesselring. What will he bring, and can it help Power to take off? That will be fun to see.

So. Are the Sabres getting good? The Sabres deserved to win that game. They played a good game but they can step it up. The Leaves did not see full gear. We can beat them again. The big question is who plays in net tomorrow? It’s exciting hockey.

Nice win. Beating Toronto and setting the tone for tomorrow. Big win. Great to see Tage and Tuch score big goals. Muel had a career game and it feels good to say that.

Lyon is roaring.

Tuch with a shorty.

Ugh. Ok PK. Get it done.

Kesselring in. Metsa out.

Judging Tuchs play only by his goals and assists is a mistake. He does a lot right.

Damm. It was pretty loud in that rink for the leaves goal. Come on Sabres Bring your fans into it.

Who remembers the days when if you have a lead in the last minute of play in a period or game - it was Luce and Ramsey time. ? I can’t wait until the day I can plug two more names in there. Kozak is a guy that might fill the bill. Go Sabres. Just play a clean 3d period. Do not go Alamo. Go after them. Control the neutral zone, wait for Toronto to press and bury them.

I think Dahlin made big save

Muel is now a weapon.

Sabres need to get the next goal. Let’s get going boys. Take the step. Oh damm. Kozak out.

Tage finally breaks the seal.

ESPN guy is loving up Byram. Rough shift for Timmins. He got destroyed and he is lost.

Benson has his first game without the bubble mask and he is getting scrappy.
