Only if it’s best for him. I do not want him to be a spare forward and sit out games.  

If he's up, he's taking Olofsson's spot in the top 9.  Whether that be on Thompson's W, Cozen's W, or Mittelstadt's W don't know.  But Olofsson can't be happy about the way he's playing.

It’s a preseason game but he isn’t just skilled he’s playing with a lot of confidence. After that breakaway I was like “well, maybe…”

It all feels like a risk for a franchise in the middle of a 12 year drought who might be starting a rookie goaltender in 50+ games this year and a million other young players.

I think he might make the roster. But I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t nervous about it.

I'm listening to the radio feed and have to call Dan Dunleavy out. This is the second time that I've heard him steal shtick from the long-dead Ted Darling.

For those of you too young, Ted Darling was the original Sabres pbp man. He was from HNIC, his diction was impeccable and he was a bit of a know-it-all. He was such a know-it-all that he claimed to even know the origin city of the person who caught the puck when it was shot into the crowd.

Dan, we know you're copying Ted's shtick, not thinking that there are fans who knew anything about it. It's a cheap copy. Get your own gimmicks, don't pass Ted Darling's off as your own.

Sheesh!🤬

Always hear it as an homage when Dunleavy does that rather than a rip off.

And personally like hearing that "blast from the past."

(As a kid, never could figure out how he knew where everybody in the crowd was from.  Didn't catch on to the joke until later.  D'oh!)
