That effort in the corner a minute ago...

Two golden opportunities missed this PP. At least they're generating chances now.

I'd love to see Bennett eat a good, hard open ice hit. Cannot stand him

Decent period. Win the third.

RAT FARTS

CLINK

MOTHERZUCKER!

Ugh. Looked like a great chance and Tuch passes it into TNT's skate.

Ugh, so close.

Started out well, then felt like they pretty much toyed with us most of the last 10-12 minutes.

Nice, much needed kill.

Still early. Settle back in.

Were looking really good for about 8 mins then came unspooled.

Welp...

Caught Byram sleeping on that one.

Looked like Byram was out of position. 😑

Balls.

Tage noticably more physical this year. Just out muscled a couple of Panthers on the boards.

Playing fast, putting good pressure on them so far.

4-3 Sabres in OT.

Yeah, last season started ROUGH. I think they went 3 months without back-to-back wins at one point.

Dylan doesn't need to be a yearly 30 goal/60 point guy to live up to that contract. If he can play a solid 2-way game, chip in 20-25 goals and 45-55 points, that will be fine. The way contracts are ballooning, the market for $7M will be quite a bit different in a year or two vs. what it was when he signed in 2023. Granted, he's not anywhere near the pace above currently, but we've seen the ability. It's there. He's just a mess mentally right now and Lindy needs to set him back on the right track. I honestly think a couple of games watching from the press box could really benefit him.

That was a great give-and-go...shades of 2022-23 Tage. He's looked really engaged offensively the last 4-5 games. We need this Tage to stick around long term.
