The Amerks are 7-2-0-1 in their last ten. In third place in the division with 73 pts, and 3 pts out of second. Toronto in 4th with 71 pts and one game at hand. ROC heating up, but still need to do some work to avoid the 4 v 5 play in round of the playoffs. The sooner Levi gets back to ROC, the better.

GDT: Ottawa Senators @ Buffalo Sabres 3/27 7PM MSG and Radio

The answer is a resounding YES to bringing back Between 2 Stalls

They were good with Levi and his above average goaltending. Systems aside, Cooley & Tokarski have been objectively bad and the run and gun offense hasn’t helped the team. They will be dangerous once Levi comes to ROC for the playoff run.

Nah. By saying you could care less, that is displaying a level of care. And that’s the opposite of what you’re trying to say. -

The Sabres also get the Caps twice at home in April.

I don’t agree they will trade Power. And I don’t agree they won’t pay Byram. The second the Sabres drafted two defensemen first overall, the shell of the team was always going to look drastically different than the present NHL formula. Go ahead and throw out the league “budget” for the blue line. Buffalo is going to eclipse it. It was always going to be this way. And because #1 overall forwards can come in and play immediately at age 18/19 (Bedard, Lafreniere, Hughes, Matthews, McDavid), these teams get good production while they’re on cheap ELCs. You don’t get that with defensemen. Defensemen aren’t fully formed until age 22/23 or so. The budget for the back-end in Buffalo will command more capital. Building a team with two pinnacle #1 overall D has never been done before that I can recall. Personally, I’ve come to embrace the concept of spending on the blue line. Bo is a key piece and I want him here long term.…conventional budget bedamned. ESPECIALLY with how many forward prospects this franchise has. Hopefully the Sabres can massage production out of ELCs for a while at forward.

In one of the oddities of life, Bills kicker Tyler Bass married former Bills punter Rick Tuten’s daughter Ryan Tuten. I guess special teamers like to keep it all in the family.

I think you meant this for either the things that are awesome thread or complaint Thursdays thread. Why not both?!

I’m in the minority, but the league is telling us that this basic principal is allowed these days. Any team who wants to pay the bucks can do it so I’m fine with it. Also, no one is arguing Mark Stone’s injury isn’t legitimate. I know the Sabres got jobbed a long time ago during the Tim Connolly era, but times have changed.

Levi Amerks stats after last night’s win: 10-5-3 2.49 GAA .926 SV%

Uneven. The team went to the conference finals last year (lost to the eventual cup winners) and brought back nearly every player to run it back. And that included a goalie pickup which presumably bolstered the crease. But it hasn’t translated to more wins. Top to bottom, the division is very competitive. I am more bullish on this team than others in the thread. They should be a playoff team again and if Levi gets hot….lets go! kevin oklobzija (the Amerks beat reporter for my entire adult life) posts his articles on a local site named https://pickinsplinters.com. It’s free and he’s great.
