Let's enjoy the lead a little longer this time boys....maybe even add to it please!

Unfortunately I think he still has another year left (contract)

Sabres have much better legs so far compared to their last game against Tampa!

Beautiful backward check by Mule behind the net! Leafs player on his a$$

Bad turnover in front of the net (Bryson), really lucky it's not tied now.

Sabres failing to get the puck deep too many times, creating turnovers....dump it deep!

I'd prefer Miller in there myself.

Dahlin "dazzle" there!

Do you have something for Power yet (in case he scores)?

Kyle!

Nice breakup by POWER!

He is the shiny new toy that everybody hopes will fill some more seats in Key Bank for what remains of this season. 🙃

IMHO - I don't think JBOT was good for Buffalo. Drafting Dahlin was a layup, who else would have picked somebody different? He picked Cozens over Zegras, which remains to be seen as the right choice or not. He did get Skinner, but he also hired Ralph Krueger, who destroyed Skinner. UPL is a mixed bag, so I would not call him a foundational player. Thompson did not thrive under JBOT as many of us here thought he was never going to pan out (I was wrong on that too). Mitts is streaky and has yet to prove he is a top 6 player. All in all, JBOT did nothing much better than GMKA in addressing the goaltending (so far).

IMHO - Ullmark was not the long term answer for Buffalo, however he is much better than Dell. Whether or not he is better than UPL simply remains to be seen.

I find it kind of interesting to see that older netminders are still so common in the league today. Just looking at goalies who have played at least 23 games, the list of age 30+ looks something like below. We already have 2 of them, but wonder if there is anybody of quality in their early 30's to target for a couple years (ex. Kuemper)? Name Team Age Craig Anderson BUF 40 Mike Smith EDM 39 Marc-Andre Fleury MIN 37 Jonathan Quick LAK 35 Thomas Greiss DET 35 Cameron Talbot MIN 34 Sergei Bobrovsky FLA 33 James Reimer SJS 33 Mikko Koskinen EDM 33 Semyon Varlamov NYI 33 Frederik Andersen CAR 32 Dustin Tokarski BUF 32 Braden Holtby DAL 32 Jacob Markström CGY 31 Darcy Kuemper COL 31 Jake Allen MTL 31 Martin Jones PHI 31 Philipp Grubauer SEA 30 Robin Lehner VGK 30

I'd like to think Asplund has more offensive upside than Eakin. There have been some flashes of this, whereas I can think of none for Eakin.

Interesting...did not know they were connected.

Anybody know if the Leaf's game is on regular MSG tomorrow? Hoping it's not ESPN+

Trade his rights while his performance is still fresh in people's minds. He's already gone as a Sabre either way.

Adams: "Don't answer that phone call from Erik P." 🙃

A word I use elsewhere, but usually not here....today's game though feels like a collective "clusterf*ck"!

Scheffler is a machine!

RE: JBOT - so was Ryan Johnson, who may follow Portillo's example. We could end up losing both of them.

Cal Petersen II (the sequel)

Part of me think that Tyler Myers would not be a bad partner (RHD) for Power. The two of them could cover half the ice with their long reach 🙃
