So, he's got a perfect game going?

If you recall, after 8 games last year, they were 0 for 22 on the PP; this year, they have 6 PP goals. Despite the criticism, their special teams is a big part of this year's start (even though, they also started 0-3 last year).

It would also be great to see Norris for an extended period of time.

I assume that's an error with the second line.

Yep, “Just give it to them” Bettman’s continued suppression of the Sabres.

I'm surprised it took so long for this to get posted!

Sad but true.

Great work by Benson. They need a couple more guys like him, and maybe a little bigger.

Yeah, I think this is more of a frustration thread/post (warranted of course). I appreciate watching the Sabres play when it's a nationally televised game like TNT, as you get a totally different perspective on the discussion, not all negative.

Are the Sabres the only team in the league with 4 first round picks on their D (2 picked #1 overall)? [One might also consider Samuelson a R1 pick too since he was taken at #32.]

Was it the Detroit thread where someone posted, "why is Ruff pulling the goal here?" ?? I remember thinking, because they need the practice regardless of the outcome. It paid off today.

Great, another "missive of doom" thread.

I mentioned in a game thread some weeks ago that I was impressed with his all-around game now--he's becoming a complete player.

Thompson has really upped his game, at both ends of the ice.

Great, they can bring him up to play while the team burns.
