Crazy stats during the 8 game streak curtesy of Vogl. 17 players have scored a goal.  Skinner leads with 8. No one else has more then 2.  18 players have at least 1 pt. 

Girgensons, Scandella and Berglund are the 3 who haven’t scored. 

Crazier stat, with the exception of Elie who only dressed 4 times to date & doesn't have even 60 minutes of ice time, every single skater that has dressed has at least 1 goal through only 1 quarter of the season.

When's the last time something like that could be said for any team, much less the Sabres?

That’s a fantastic stat! Last year, not a single defenseman scored through the first 28 games. Not one. All 7 of our defenseman have scored this year, totaling 12 goals already.

Two teams ....  16 - 4 ... in their combined last 20 games.

At least Detroit played last night too.

2 of the hottest teams in the league, but these are 2 franchises going in opposite directions.

We can't have the streak end against De-troy-it.  Just can't!

He’s got 7 points during the 8 game win streak. Pretty solid for an 18 year old!

The thing that is kind of scary with him is that he already looks so very composed and solid as an 18 year old, yet you can tell he is nowhere close to his ceiling either.  

He looks to be everything that was advertised and more.  Another Nick Lidstrom with perhaps even more offensive upside?

That's Bobby Orr territory!

Keeping fingers crossed.

I think it is a bit early for Lidstrom comparatives, yet alone Orr.

That said, only a little bit early ... maybe.

+++++

I asked this before, or maybe I just think that I asked it before ...

On the OP with the lineup thingie there is a ranking for each player.  If I am reading this correctly Eich is the 15th ranked centre in the league, right?  

What are these rankings based on?  

Thanks for taking my call.  I'll hang up now and listen to your answer ...

Thanks for the advice.  Fortunately, ham is a no - no for me too.

Risto is a +4 in his last 3 games... now a -8 on the season.

Hope that trend continues. 

Is that 'team adjusted'?

And what is Skinner's?

Craziest stat, it was probably February before we had as many wins last year

You want those rankings to really mess with your head? 31 teams, 4 centers per team... 124 centers. Now take a look at the bottom 6 centers on each team. 

 

Now play around with any of the higher numbers at other positions.

Dahlin thus far as an 18 year old:

1.  Quiet shift.

2.  Does a nifty play to get puck to another player to get the rush going.

3.  Turns puck over while trying to do something "Dahlinesque".

4.  Flawlessly rides attacker into the boards, Sabres take possession.

5.  Tape to tap pass to lead breakout.

6.  Holy crap shift that few others can make.

7.  Goto Step 1.
