Porous Five Hole

I will give you credit that you’re all in UPKK

Thank you for your service

401k has earned his keep tonight.

Well that helps thank you TNT

This is gonna be a long azz eight minutes

I’m not saying JJP has developed into some two-way stud, but he’s been much better in his own end this year (+1 after nine games on a team that is even in GF/GA).

Buff St, Fredonia, and Brockport are all a short drive and the seats are close enough to be overtaken by the hockey equipment smell. D3 hockey is very affordable and entertaining…but not the college experience that party goers might be looking for. Cuse basketball is always fun given the size of the outfit. It is worth the trip for pregame beers at faegens and the game at the dome.

I’m one of those UPL nonbelievers who saw him come up short too many times in his tenure as a Rochester resident. The Sabres outscored their problems last year and I will rehash that UPL’s career NHL save percentage is .898. Can he get hot? Sure, he has proven he can string together a few starts of competent goaltending…just like almost any other goalie. I’m happy with the 2-0 start, but I don’t expect him to be reliable over a season. I hope I am wrong.

Well that’s confusing because he’s only played two games all year 🤔

I’m drinking from the cup of beetle right now!

VO’s camp said out loud that they expected a trade. No team wanted him at his salary. If there was ANY market for him, he would have been moved already.

Tough break for Rousek as he did not look out of place during his two game look last year.

401k isn’t good. The Sabres took good care of him yesterday since the middle of the first period. The Aves were trash yesterday.

Late entry, but this is the betting favorite for worst thread title of the year 🏆 The goal is to discuss a particular topic versus a catch all with a player’s name.

By all means, please continue the UPL discussion with a new topic. This was about the fact that UPL got none of the first five starts. Things have obviously changed.

Well, injury insurance has paid off for now

A local hockey reporter told me he’s in FL and leisurely working in the horse racing industry.

It’s because Benson isn’t producing.

🏆🏆🏆

Impossible to answer, but what is the drop off between Benson right now and a Jiri Kulich call up? Kulich is sporting 6G 3A, +4 in seven games played in the AHL this year. I realize your point is about the development of Benson, but in terms of what makes the most sense for the Sabres in 2023…I think it’s Benson back to juniors to gain some weight and Kulich (or Rosen if more defensively responsible than Jiri) into the lineup.

Hard to argue against this, but Linus had been injury prone to that point AND I believe he wanted to get outta town. This was the factory of sadness for his entire tenure. Even if GMKA chose to overpay, there’s no guarantee he would have stayed once the Bruins came calling.

VO scratched for Jost and Josty scores and was solid all day. VO may never see the ice again.

Man, Casey has been a different guy the last 60 games. I think I need to reevaluate my stance on trading him.

The save where it hit the goat head and it was still hard for UPL to control it?
