Pimlach Posted November 18, 2022 Report Share Posted November 18, 2022 This is the time for UPL to show he is an NHL goalie. We needed a young player to emerge and it would be great of a goalie did. 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess it was his fault that our wonderchild Dahlin slammed a player right into him and almost full speed and could not have waited for that hit until he cleared the crease.

msw2112 Posted November 18, 2022 Report Share Posted November 18, 2022 I was hoping for more from Comrie, but given his numbers, I don't think there will be much, if any, drop-off with UPL. UPL's prior NHL numbers were pretty decent and better than his AHL numbers. While there are other reasons to be concerned about the direction of the season, I don't think this is going to have any negative impact. If UPL continues his prior trends of better NHL numbers than AHL numbers, it may end up being a "net" positive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Norcal Posted November 18, 2022 Report Share Posted November 18, 2022 Feel badly for Comrie but this could help facilitate a 1A/1B type situation going forward. IF both UPL and Comrie can find their games this season, Comrie when he returns, they can go into next season in a 1A/1B type situation like Washington had for a while. Ride the hot hand and wait for Levi and whoever else to develop on the farm. This is all assuming UPL is ready and Comrie can get back to form when he gets back. Heres to a quick return to health 🍺 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really have to hope UPL can continue the trend of looking better in the show than in the minors, because if he is what he was in the minors Anderson will be toast before Christmas, maybe before Advent.

Andy is going to sit back and coach up the boys when Comrie gets back. UPL is up to stay I think. Maybe. Possibly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sabres Fan in NS Posted November 18, 2022 Report Share Posted November 18, 2022 Damn!! He wasn't playing lights out or anything, but the team seemed to play harder when he was in net. I think the team thinks that if they are a little more loosie goosie with Anderson back there he will bail them out. It's UPL's last time to really shine or he is going to be a career AHLer. Not that there is anything wrong with that ... 😎 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dudacek Posted November 18, 2022 Report Share Posted November 18, 2022 A bit of context to UPL’s season: 5 good starts, 2 poor, 2 indifferent. https://theahl.com/stats/player/7644 This moment is maybe arriving a little earlier than the brass hoped, but it was always going to happen sometime this year. Ive been looking forward to it, basically since Ullmark walked. The door is open. Let’s see if he can step through and slam it behind him.

The younger goalies need to take a page out of Anderson's book and focus on anticipating puck movement and where the shot is going to come from. I assume that Anderson has lost a bit of reflexes due to his age but his positioning has generally been very good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taro T Posted December 13, 2022 Report Share Posted December 13, 2022 Apparently Comrie was able to do some butterfly in practice for the 1st time since the injury. So, we might have him back sooner than later. He is still officially week to week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
