Huh? Yes I do think there should be more vets and that Benson should be developing elsewhere. BUT - since that is NOT happening, then I hope he has the magic to influence the other ho-hum players who otherwise don’t show up. Yes, other players should be embarrassed that the toughest guy on the team some nights is the smallest and youngest player. Finally, I am NOT a Homie.

I think it was JJP who made the bad pass.

Part me hopes the Sabres never get a power play in the 3rd period, especially when they have a lead. Usually nothing good happens and it seems more likely something will go wrong.

If there was ever a situation where a 19 year old can change the attitude of his entire team….this is where I hope it can happen. If I was a player on the Sabres, I’d be embarrassed that the smallest and youngest player on the team has more courage than me or anybody else. I want more Benson’s on the Sabres…but right now he’s alone.

Joki has been quietly effective in his return to the lineup…..I’ve not been a fan of his in the past, but will keep an open mind.

It was so bad that I forgot they had one.

It would be interesting to see how this game would be if the Sens had their wall (Linus U.)

Geez, watch the turnovers in our own zone fellas! Odds of Quinn getting a Hattie tonight???

Yikes….need Tom Cruise, as this is now a Mission Impossible scenario.

I (like you and many others) LOVE the kid and I want him to have a great career in Buffalo. I just think he needs to get a bit stronger and faster in order to maximize his potential. He already has great hockey smarts and attitude….just need his body to catch-up. I also think about his mental state….sometimes he is the only one who has shown some backbone on the whole team. I don’t want the rest of the team to poison Benson’s attitude.

Great song by Triumph!

IDK - the Sens are certainly higher in the standings with games in hand. I expected a much better showing from them, but I guess any team can screw the pooch on any given night. Wow…listen to the Sen’s fans booing their team…..brings a smile to my face

Yes it’s good. I’d like to throw in the old ABC MNF theme as another favorite.

As much as I like Benson, he still should be developing elsewhere. Krebs comes to mind as maybe another.

Better linemates lately?!?!

McLeod really showing something in his opportunity to get off the 4th line. Gee Kevyn, maybe you should try to get another vet or two?!?!

Batherson is the only other one that can sometimes come out of the woodwork

Nice goal by Cozens there….had to act fast in taking the shot….maybe that’s the key, react quickly before thinking about it.

The legend of Zach Benson continues….goes after Tkachuk against the boards late in the period

Turnover by Power leading to the Sens opportunity

Gotta give credit when it’s due…..hell of a pass by Krebs to hit Quinn in stride

Wow, Pat Quinn comes back from the dead to score a breakaway goal

Nice hit by Cliffy there on Brady

Tage...SHOOT (don't pass)!

Going back to the Tkachuk hit....sort of reminds me of the Neal hit on Drury. Once upon a time our team would respond to send a message, but this version of the Sabres is more concerned about getting to the bench to avoid any conflict
