I'll hang up and listen. I'm wondering why we're waiting for the trade deadline to get a few defensive defensemen, whether we make the playoffs or not it will be valuable to the younger players to get coached up by some veteran Dmen imo. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gotta find out if he's got ot or doesn't. I'm leaning doesn't. Watching Levi play in the Bean pot, he can't get here quick enough. He looks like the real deal.

Because if this doesn’t improve they need make other goaltending plans for next season if they want to be a playoff team Agree. UPL and Comrie are our goalies next season, unless they show otherwise this season. Keep playing them and find out if they are worthy. It is what it is right now.

They outshot them something like 21-7 in the 1st & had been outscoring them 20-5 14 minutes into the game. Ingram had a horseshoe up his butt.

And I can't believe Portillo looks at the current setup and thinks that he'll have a better opportunity elsewhere. He has to believe he can beat out UPL and Comrie. If not, what's the point?

Keep playing them and find out if they are worthy. It is what it is right now. If they are the goalies next season, it will be another non-playoff season. Comrie is a career backup and UPL may be a serviceable AHL goalie, although he seems to play worse in the A. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Porous Five Hole Posted February 16, 2023 Report Share Posted February 16, 2023 Comrie’s last start was three weeks ago (Jan 26). Obviously he hasn’t looked great, but that can be rust. UPL has no rust excuse and hasn’t played well in a while. If Comrie shuts the door in the third, he should get another start right away. This is a big period for the squad.

Pimlach Posted February 16, 2023 Report Share Posted February 16, 2023 Comrie giving up big rebounds and failing to cover up. Meanwhile Sabres swatting with their sticks in effort to help him I guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's the point of running BOTH UPL & Comrie this year so they can figure out if that will be good enough for a year or 2 or if they have to fix it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I'm not sure what Portillo is thinking. I would rather have Levi, as I think he is gonna be special. Maybe Portillo sees the same thing and doesn't wanna be an eventual backup. He would be great trade bait of Levi pans out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarthEbriate Posted February 16, 2023 Report Share Posted February 16, 2023 Can't decide what's more annoying with the Ducks broadcast. The flags that appear over each Sabres' head on the PP or the puck trail. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is a big period for the squad. If he pitches a shutout this period, would give him the SJ game. Doubt Granato & Bales will agree. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we all know the goalie situation has been a problem for quite sometime now. And the answer isn't on the current roster. UPL looked promising for awhile, but even in his wins, he was letting in a lot of goals. Not sure what KA has been watching. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe he'll only be a backup to Levi... but where else he going to go that he won't be a backup first? Here he'd have a great opportunity to stick in the NHL within 2 seasons. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He must not like the organization. He is walking away from a team with no set 1 or 2. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
